“The built-in AI and smart importing from Excel or other sources make the experience far superior to any other survey application we have used. There are far more survey options available in SurveyMonkey compared to any other application we have tried. Looking at the question type options, you will easily see three to four times more questions available than in Microsoft Forms or Google Forms.”

Ranj B., Automotive Administrator

“SurveyMonkey is versatile enough to be used as a general web forms application, gathering a large variety of customisable data types.  Customer support is usually very helpful in figuring out how complex the logical arrangements of question blocks are.  Pricing is very good for customers who may need more than the basic offerings of tools such as Google Forms and Microsoft Forms.”

“We had branching logic and a variety of different question formats we were looking to implement that [Microsoft] Forms did not support.”
