# Escuta Produto vs UserVoice

> UserVoice is built for large organizations that run formal feedback programs across many teams. Escuta Produto is the better fit for founders and small teams running one or more products who want a lean, private inbox they can set up in an afternoon, with alerts to Slack or Discord and CSV export when they need their data.

## Is UserVoice or Escuta Produto the right size for you?

Choose UserVoice if your organization runs a formal feedback program across many teams, with intake rules, reporting for leadership and many people who need access. Choose Escuta Produto if you are a founder or a small team with one or more products and you want a lean, private inbox that anyone on the team can read in minutes. For that second group, Escuta Produto is the better fit.

## What enterprise feedback management is built for

UserVoice is an enterprise feedback management platform. Large organizations use it to gather requests from customers and internal stakeholders, organize them into a formal process and report on them across teams. The value is in structure: a shared process, many roles, and an audit trail that a larger company needs.

That kind of program needs time to set up and a person or team that owns it. When feedback has to pass through several departments before anyone acts, the structure earns its place. It is a strong choice for organizations with that shape.

## What a lean feedback tool is built for

Escuta Produto is built for a small team that wants to hear from customers and act quickly. A widget of about 5 KB compressed, with no dependencies, adds a Feedback button to the product. Visitors choose a type (bug, idea, praise or other), write a message and can rate from 1 to 5 stars. Each item arrives in a private inbox with a status and internal notes.

There is no process engine to configure. You add the script, set allowed origins, and open the inbox each morning. The [widget docs](/docs/widget) list the options, and the whole setup fits in a short session.

## Best for large organizations with formal intake

If feedback has to be reviewed by several departments, assigned, reported on and kept for audit, a platform designed for that work is the right tool. Enterprise programs often need roles, reporting and a shared process that the whole company follows. UserVoice is designed for those needs, so it is the better choice in that setting.

## Best for small teams that read every message

If the same three or four people read every piece of feedback, most of the enterprise structure gets in the way. Escuta Produto keeps the path short: a message comes in, the team sees it in the inbox, someone sets a status and writes a note. The [guide to triaging customer feedback](/resources/how-to-triage-customer-feedback) describes a weekly routine that suits a small team.

## How to tell which process you run

Ask a few questions about the way feedback moves today. Who reads each message first? Does a decision need approval from another department? Do you report on feedback volume to people outside the product team? If the answers are a small group, a single decision-maker and a simple weekly review, a lean inbox will serve you better. If the answers involve several approval steps and formal reporting, look at the enterprise option.

## A short checklist for choosing

- Do fewer than ten people need to read feedback each week?
- Do you run one or several products that each need their own inbox?
- Do you want new items to reach Slack or Discord as they arrive?
- Do you need to take your data out in a plain CSV file?
- Would a private inbox with internal notes be enough for your team?

If most answers are yes, Escuta Produto is the better fit. If your organization needs formal governance across many teams, UserVoice is the better match.

## What Escuta Produto leaves out

Escuta Produto does not run public voting boards, roadmaps, surveys, NPS campaigns, session replay or screenshots. It has no AI clustering and no sync with issue trackers, and it has no tags. Items are sorted by type and status. Internal notes, metadata and a CSV export cover the rest. If you need enterprise governance, that is outside what Escuta Produto is for.

## Trying Escuta Produto on one product first

Start with the product that gets the most feedback. Add the widget with its key, set allowed origins so only your sites can submit, and connect a Slack or Discord webhook. Use the inbox for a few weeks, then decide whether it covers your needs. The [notifications docs](/docs/notifications) explain how the webhook alerts work, and the [guide to collecting customer feedback](/resources/how-to-collect-customer-feedback) helps you choose where the widget should appear.

The [weekly feedback review template](/resources/weekly-feedback-review-template) gives you a simple routine to run each week, whichever tool you pick.

## Frequently asked questions

### Is Escuta Produto an enterprise feedback platform?

No. Escuta Produto is a lean private inbox for founders and small teams. It collects feedback with a light widget, sorts it by product, type and status, and sends alerts to Slack or Discord. It is not designed for formal governance across large organizations.

### How long does it take to set up Escuta Produto?

Most teams add the widget script with their product key in one sitting, then set allowed origins and a Slack or Discord webhook. The dashboard is ready to use as soon as the first items arrive, with no process to configure first.

### When should a team choose UserVoice instead?

Choose a platform like UserVoice when feedback must pass through formal approval steps across many departments, with roles, reporting and an audit trail. Those needs fit an enterprise program better than a lean inbox does.

### Can I take my feedback data out of Escuta Produto?

Yes. Export a product's feedback as a CSV file. The file is UTF-8 and opens in Excel and Google Sheets, so you can keep your records or move them to another system.
