HI,
I am looking for feedback on the use of Enketo which allows a grid input mode for offline data entry in difficult areas. Is it as reliable as KoboCollect? What are its disadvantages?
Thks a lot
Thierry
Some disadvantages:
- Wrong handling of browser (cache) will create data loss!
- No finalisation step
- Grid not comfortable on smaller screens, e.g. smartphones
- Some differences in functionality, behaviour and user interface between Collect and Enketo… See XLSForm Reference Table and postings in the community forum…

Thanks Wroos,
Can you develop what you mean by ‘No finalisation step’?
I saw some articles mentioning recent updates about management browser cache, have you more informations about that and/or can you develop this problematic aspect?
Thanks a lot
Thierry
When you complete a survey with Enkekto and then press the Submit
button as shown in the image below …
… you will not be able to go back to the completed form and make changes. FYR, you will see a similar image as shared below …
This is what @wroos has tried to explain.
You should also be able to learn more about collecting data with Enketo through our support article Collecting Data through Web Forms.
