Kinda. Quackback and Formbricks cover the core of UserVoice, but they're early or partial — expect gaps like enterprise customer identity, integrations, analytics, governance, and consulting and large participant panel.

why people still pay

People still pay for UserVoice because people pay either for access to participants or for a research repository that keeps evidence usable across an organization. The recurring cost buys recruitment, consent, scheduling, media storage, transcription, tagging consistency, notifications, search, and retention, not just the visible interface.
