### "MS Forms used as questionnaires"

August 18, 2025

5.0

Pros

Flexible format, customization and ability to add questions in different ways. Different links for viewing, editing and collaboration which enhances security features. Being able to automate responses and output them into MS Planner as tasks.

Cons

Not very smooth design, layout is more spread-out on the page. Would look better if it could be more tailored in presentation.

### "Forms connected to your Office365"

January 2, 2026

4.0

Setting up and using forms is easy. Analysis right there in Excel is simple, great ways to collaborate with others in your Office365 organization

Pros

\- the tie in to the MS365 / MS Office Environment makes it frictionless, also for teams working in Office365

Cons

\- some things are a bit less flexible than other solutions, but no deal breakers here - style wise it looks a bit old, could be more modern

### "FORMS REVIEW"

June 16, 2025

5.0

It is easy to use, and easy to deploy. but maybe it would help to make better and easier web page configuration view, so that not all of the surveys look that similar between them

Pros

Its very usefull not only to make a survey to a large number of people, but for instance. In my case forms worked for me to make a plant inventory. Putting standard info on the survey, that then many people fill to make a better, and faster asset inventory at my location. So there are many examples of how this tool can work for more than a quick survey.

Cons

I think forms its used mainly to collect data, but it could extend its funcionalitty to not only collect data, but also create question and inmediate pre programed responses or messages to users. So that it is interactive, or some small games or dinamics can be played on forms. Based on preprogramed configuration. Such as select the best option you think, and based on your question it extends to an specic next question or message, action, etc.

### "Microsoft form easy to showcase data"

January 18, 2025

5.0

Ther interface is straightforward to use and adapt to. It's not something that needs to be learned and or trained on.

Pros

I like that it can download the data into an Excel sheet to showcase all the numbers. Also, the varieties have a pie chart to show the results visually. From an admin and participant perspective it is a very well-rounded software that doesn't differ too much. The options of question types are not confusing and doesn't clear on to help you what goal you're trying to achieve. I appreciate the existing template that is being offered currently. It's a good range for people to begin with and it showcases that i

Cons

From an admin side: I feel that it would be useful in a technical aspect, to put ideal background wallpaper format size for users to be aware that if it isn't this particular size, the image will be stretched. Because its usually come as a surprise for when users upload their own images. OR to integrat Microsoft designer into Forms.

Reason for choosing Microsoft Forms

Because my company are Microsoft base, so its easier to store data all within the cloud base and I can easily invite my co-workers on the platform to collaborate.

### "Lots of power and flexibility"

August 15, 2025

4.0

I used it to create both simple and quite complex forms and business process automation. Integrating with Sharepoint was a breeze. Mocking the forms was also easy to help review with the end users to verify the flow.

Pros

Forms is very flexible and provides a lot of customization power. Integration with databases and other Microsoft products was straightforward.

Cons

The workflow logic can get very complex and hard to manage for more involved business processes, so one should do some upfront flow planning and what criteria must be met to move to the next step.

### "My Insights on Microsoft Forms."

June 2, 2025

5.0

The tool has been smooth and made my work easier in Form creation. Its reliable and offers a number of capabilities. To sum it up, its worth every dime.

Pros

The tool helps in collection of data through forms. Has multiple templates for form building and creation. Offers an ease of use and integration with Microsoft ecosystem. Alows creation of surveys, forms, polls and quizes.

Cons

The tool has been productive and offers excellent form building. The only challenge is in customization.

### "Microsoft Forms Review"

May 9, 2025

4.0

Experience overall has been positive, and more than adequately gets the job done, even though there are some areas for possible improvement.

Pros

It's very easy to create new forms and to specify the types of questions to be asked. The data presentation is also very powerful.

Cons

The forms features are somewhat simple, so it's a bit difficult to create more advanced custom forms with multiple links and references. Even the "branching" function is a little clunky, but it is still useable.

Reason for choosing Microsoft Forms

Even though other options were out there, the low cost of Microsoft Forms and its integration with the Microsoft environment were a winner.

### "Ease of Use, Great with Suite"

October 13, 2025

4.0

I like Microsoft Forms; it's great that it comes with our Microsoft Suite. It makes it a good value for our money if we're already paying for it. It's also easy to use and navigate.

Pros

I love the dynamic options for design and customization. Being able to utilize videos and sound can really compliment forms. My preference is for forms that collect and display data in an easy to visualize way, so that is a bonus. It's also helpful when trying to make sure my team responds thanks to being able to send it directly to the organizational emails.

Cons

I am not sure how secure the platform is, but that is due to my own lack of knowledge. I have not looked into that, so don't weigh that factor of the decision on me. From all I can tell, it is anonymous when need to be and not when not needed.

### "Des formulaires dans l’écosystème Microsoft "

August 10, 2025

5.0

Pros

On a apprécié son intégration fluide avec Excel ou Teams, cela rend la gestion et l'analyse des données bien plus simple.

Cons

Un peu plus de souplesse sur certains aspects serait plus appréciable. Les logiques avancées, les modèles visuels, ou encore la personnalisation de la marque restent assez limitées pour l'instant.

### "Microsoft forms "

June 27, 2025

Pros

It makes gathering information very easy to do. We use it very frequently and have lots of customized fields

Cons

### "So leicht wie Google Forms"

September 15, 2025

4.0

Einfach zu benutzen, kostenlos und passt gut mit Office365 zusammen. Berichte kann man direkt nach Excel schicken, klappt ohne Probleme.

Pros

Vielleicht klingt das komisch, aber es ist genauso leicht zu bedienen wie Google Forms. Die Oberfläche ist auf beiden Seiten – Admin und Nutzer – ziemlich ähnlich. Praktisch sind auch die fertigen Vorlagen, so muss man nicht jedes Mal von null anfangen.

Cons

Klar, es ist sehr simpel: keine logischen Bedingungen, keine großen Möglichkeiten zur Anpassung, Berichte ziemlich begrenzt. Aber man darf nicht vergessen – es ist halt gratis.

### "Microsoft Forms - Great when used with Microsoft Lists"

February 21, 2025

4.0

Works the same as all the other form generators in the market. The Microsoft Lists integration is the best feature for me.

Pros

Free (comes with Microsoft subscription. The interface is fairly simple to use. Allows branching logic. It integrates with Microsoft Lists (SharePoint) which is very useful for task management.

Cons

It does not allow branching on multiple-choice questions. Some of the branching features aren't intuitive until you experiment.

### "Made knowledge checks more effective"

June 23, 2025

5.0

Pros

I have used Microsoft Forms to evaluate trainer knowledge during department trainings by using post-session quizzes. The follow-ups could be done easily by means of creating question banks that had auto-grading.

Cons

It shows poor capacity to monitor partial submissions and access incomplete submissions. And in big training we could not follow up who began the quiz but not completed the quiz.

### "A marketing managers view of MS Forms"

January 21, 2025

5.0

Overall it is an easy to use and quick way to gather information in a survey from work colleagues or external agencies. It looks professional and has the capabilities to collect different types of survey information.

Pros

Creating a form is easy. With no training or tutorials, it is possible to create a title, questions and types of questions, such as multiple choice, ratings, etc. You can then email a link to the survey from your email account. It even creates a report of the survey which you can download, when complete.

Cons

It is not easy finding when the survey is complete, or progress on how many people have completed the survey, without going into the forms.

[SurveyMonkey](https://www.capterra.com/p/253516/SurveyMonkey/)

Forms is easier to use, more intuitive and quicker to build surveys than other platforms. Sending out the survey is easy via a link. The reporting I think is great. Downloadable from anywhere. Looks professional. Not need to copy it into another presentation.

### "User-friendly and simple"

February 21, 2025

5.0

Pleasant and easy to use. I use it with my students a lot to get them to sign agreements before they work on their projects and it's very easy for them to complete the form. It's also easy for me to design the surveys or forms.

Pros

It's user friendly and very easy to use. It feels intuitive and doesn't require any experience to use it. I also like the fact that you can make it for people in your organisation only but still have the option to make it anonymous. When the survey isn't anonymous, I like the fact that it tell you that the owner will be able to see the name.

Cons

It's not that I like the least but I'd like to see a slider option for questions like the one in Qualtrics. It would be also useful to be able to collect the responses in SPSS format

December 26, 2024

Great, To be honest. It had always been my helping hand.

Pros

Wherever I have to ask my friends or my colleagues, about going on a trip or taking a decision on something important. I prefer using Microsoft Forms. This gives me an option to create a customised form for to send it to my friends and colleagues for their opinion. And also genrates a graph according to the results generated by my poll.

Cons

Nothing as of now. I had been using from past 2 years, and till then I didn't faced a single problem in any functioning.

December 11, 2024

5.0

Overall I am pleased with Microsoft Forms. It offers the opportunity to make forms with a Microsoft 365, so comes for free if you have this platform.

Pros

Microsoft forms offers the ideal forms platform, perfectly integrated into the Microsoft group of products. This makes it really easy to use and export to programmes such as Outlook and Excel.

Cons

The software is quite basic and is isn't as advanced as something like Jotform. The limitations make it difficult to make the logic jumps needed for complex forms.
