EdTech Platform User Experience Survey
Understand how learners and educators evaluate course discovery, compare platform usability, and navigate support experiences, so you can sharpen acquisition, optimise pricing, strengthen retention, and improve positioning across key learner segments and markets.
CONTEXT & RELEVANCE
Why run this survey now
Most EdTech users don't leave platforms purely on content quality. They disengage due to confusing navigation, weak personalisation, inconsistent instruction, payment friction, and slow support, none of which fully show up in app ratings or completion dashboards.
If you are...
- EdTech product leadership
- Growth and acquisition teams
- Learning experience designers

You're likely facing...
- High trial volumes conceal weak paid conversion after onboarding friction
- Strong course catalogues coexist with low learner engagement across cohorts
- Inconsistent tutor quality creates uneven learning experiences across formats
- Limited journey visibility obscures critical dropout points before completion
- Positive satisfaction scores mask weak renewal intent among subscribers
This will help answer...
- Conversion friction priorities
- Learner segment needs
- Content experience gaps
- Pricing and bundle preferences
- Retention and advocacy drivers
