This gives a chance for companies to enter in this site can get increased exposure.

Feedbackify is a new website widget that allows business owner to ask specific questions to the web visitors. For example a visitor can be asked to rate a webpage design and navigability. However, unlike the former app here there is no scope for a user to submit idea. They can only submit crude from of feedback through ratings.

In case you have been wondering rating should be supported with focused questions then Kampyle will be your option. This app is just a complimentary of Feedbackify.
