What you gain and what you give up

Advantages

Context and freshness: It captures the opinion "in the heat of the moment," which increases the ecological validity of the data compared with retrospective surveys.
Scalability: It allows data to be collected from thousands of users simultaneously, providing a solid quantitative base for decision-making.
Customer-centered culture: It puts the customer at the center of the ongoing development process, letting the product team empathize with real problems in real time.

Disadvantages

Self-report bias: Users can rationalize their actions or lie (unintentionally); what they say does not always reflect the reality of their interaction.
Analysis overload: A high volume of open-ended comments can be overwhelming and hard to analyze without automation or AI tools, which can lead to valuable insights being missed.
Disrupts the experience: If not carefully designed, intercepts can annoy the user and degrade the very experience being measured.
