The Best VideoAsk Alternative - Trust
Why is Trust the best alternative to VideoAsk?
- VideoAsk has a “conditional logic” flow to testimonial collection, which not all users may enjoy as it can take hours to learn and create them. On the flip side, Trust has a very beginner-friendly process for testimonial collection with its ready-to-edit Smart and Interactive testimonial collection forms.
- VideoAsk’s Grow plan costs $30/month and includes partially VideoAsk-branded collection forms. Meanwhile, Trust’s Standard plans, priced at $30/month, allow fully white-labeled testimonial capture forms.
- VideoAsk charges you based on the monthly video or audio minutes you or your customers consume. Surpassing this limit forces you to upgrade to the next plan, which is super inconvenient. But with Trust, you’re offered 50 video testimonials with the Standard plan and unlimited testimonials with the Pro plan, so you don’t have to worry about exceeding any limit.
- You can only ask customer questions for video or audio feedback by uploading your own video with Video Ask. This is a major drawback for users who like to stay behind the scenes and type in their questions. With Trust, you can upload video or text questions for your customers.

VideoAsk features
❌VideoAsk requires you to upload only video questions as a video message for your customers to answer. So a lot of effort can go into recording questions, which can overwhelm you and your customers, too.
❌Creating a “VideoAsk” to collect a video testimonial has a lot of friction. You must follow their conditional logic-style to create a request, which is a lot of manual work
❌VideoAsk’s editing capabilities are not very extensive. You can only trim videos, edit captions, and replace videos in a VideoAsk collector
❌ No teleprompting, forcing customers to be well-prepared with answers beforehand to every VideoAsk video message.
❌VideoAsk has no option for users to import external reviews onto their dashboard for ease of access
❌Too few testimonial display options with basic designs compared to Trust.
