Best current tools for analyzing open-ended responses?

I have a large survey (n=2k+) coming out of field next week. There are 4 OE questions. Given past results, I expect about 50% compliance (50% of participants will give answers that are not gibberish). Years ago I tried NVivo but found it ridiculously cumbersome (perhaps is better for larger projects than I was running at the time). When I asked AI for a list of current tools it mentioned Blix, Caplena, Ascribe, DisplayR, and Dovetail. Nobody I work with has tested any of those. Anyone here have experience using these tools for OE analysis? Hoping to get to a shortlist of 2 finalists so I can test just those. Thanks!
