“Our experience with Watermark Course Evaluations & Surveys has been outstanding from start to finish. The setup process was impressively quick and went off without a hitch, allowing us to transition smoothly from our legacy system. One of the most notable improvements has been in our student response rates. With our previous system, we struggled to reach a 30% participation rate. Since implementing Watermark, our response rates have soared to 75%, making our course evaluation data far more representative and actionable. Integration with our Learning Management System (LMS) was seamless. The process was straightforward, and we encountered no technical difficulties, which saved our IT team significant time and effort.” –
