### "Great resource for surveys"

October 18, 2024

5.0

Overall, a very helpful platform which makes creating complex surveys easy. Would recommend for businesses needing to conduct more complicated analysis.

Pros

Really good user interface and fantastic analytics to easily break down results.

Cons

The premium version can get very expensive, so depends on the survey needs of the business.

SurveyMonkey has played a vital role in helping us reach respondents in our organization. Creating and managing forms is easy to do and the data feeds into other platforms which makes our work process easy.

Pros

I like how easy it is to use SurveyMonkey "out of the box". A form author would have few barriers to customizing and deploying a well-designed and visually pleasing form in a short amount of time.

Cons

There is no glaring issue that I have experienced with SurveyMonkey.

### "Very efficient survey management tool"

June 26, 2024

5.0

Overall I could save a lot of time using Survey Monkey to build high performing surveys about Customer satisfaction. The results provided on the Reporting dashboards were clear and I could find easily how to improve my customers satisfaction. But this tool requires to spend a significant budget.

Pros

The AI-based helper is really a plus when it comes to building precise and insightful survey questions: a lot of time saved and high quality results.

Cons

The price of the plans, it's quite a budget if you are not a pure player but use Survey Monkey from time to time to get insights of Customer satisfaction.

### "SurveyMonkey is a simple win"

July 14, 2024

5.0

Pros

SurveyMonkey gives you easy access to a survey creator to present to the desired individuals to get the answers you need. It's easy to use on the user's end also.

Cons

I haven't run into any issues regarding SurveyMonkey. It's simple and they don't complicate it. That's the path they need to stick with and keep on winning.

Google Docs is okay, but it doesn't look as good. You want people to trust the survey, so it makes sense to switch.

### "A versatile tool for collecting, disseminating, and/or digesting any desired data "

August 27, 2023

4.0

Overall, survey monkey, has a TON of very valuable uses and is generally user friednly for all levels of experience both on the user side as well as with those developing and deploying their products. The features that allow for real-time data collection with the ability to report that data live, have been crucial in my workplace. I hope these in-the-moment capabilities will continue to increase the ability of all workers, to hold those in power accountable, as well as allow for the demand of responsiveness at the time those responses are needed. :)

Pros

I appreciate the range of access to their products, that comes at no cost! aka the features that are Free :) I don't use their products enough to warrant a paid subscription, so being able to create a survey occasionally has been great for a committee I'm on, within my organization. Also being able to use polls to gauge real time reactions to changes within our workplace has helped drive pushback to undesired policies and also increase engagement of co-workers from seeing our peers wrestling with similar feelings/concerns, as they are happening.

Cons

As a user of a couple survery's that were sent to me from partner agency's - outside of my organization (which I tried to respond to while using my work computer & email) I could not tell if my response had been submitted at the end of the survey. One was to register for a training and the last page of the survey monkey registration questions was very confusing as to whether my information had been processed successfully and if I was in fact done with the registration form. I tried to re-enter the information multiple times but each time ended at the same spot. The page included a header on how to create your own survey monkey product but did not direct me on my status or next required steps. I had a very similar experience when presented with an employee feedback survey from a community based organization and I still don't know whether my survey responses were included in that analysis of work satisfaction!

### "Great Option"

June 8, 2023

4.0

Overall, SurveyMonkey is a great option for businesses and individuals who need to create and distribute surveys. It's easy to use, affordable, and offers powerful analytics tools. However, if you need to create complex surveys or are concerned about data security, you may want to consider a more specialized survey tool.

Pros

User-friendly: SurveyMonkey is very easy to use, even for people with no experience in survey creation. The drag-and-drop interface makes it simple to add questions, customize the look and feel of the survey, and set up advanced features like branching and logic.Affordable: SurveyMonkey offers a variety of pricing plans to fit any budget. The free plan is a great option for small businesses or individuals who only need to create a few surveys. Paid plans offer additional features and functionality, such as unlimited surveys, advanced reporting, and data export.Powerful analytics: SurveyMonkey's analytics tools make it easy to understand your survey results. You can view charts and graphs, filter data, and export results to Microsoft Excel or CSV files.Integrations: SurveyMonkey integrates with a variety of other popular business apps, such as Salesforce, Google Analytics, and Microsoft Office. This makes it easy to collect data from your surveys and sync it with your other business systems.

Cons

Limited customization: SurveyMonkey's templates and themes provide a good starting point, but you may find that you need to customize the look and feel of your surveys to match your brand or corporate identity.Not ideal for complex surveys: SurveyMonkey is best suited for simple surveys with a few questions. If you need to create a complex survey with multiple branching questions, logic, or other advanced features, you may want to consider a more specialized survey tool.Data security: SurveyMonkey takes data security seriously, but there have been some security breaches in the past. If you're concerned about data security, you may want to consider using a more secure survey tool.

Nach Abschluss unseres komplexen Service (Überseeumzüge) bekomme ich durch Survey Monkey hoffentlich differenzierte Rückmeldung. Dies soll uns helfen, unseren Service weiter zu verbessern.

Pros

Das Umfragetool ist sehr gut und nützlich, und es ist gut erklärt.

Cons

Die Methode, eine CSV-Datei zur Übersetzung zur Verfügung zu stellen, klappt in der Praxis gar nicht. Diese Option ist unausgereift. Siehe oben.Dazu kommt: es gibt KEINE Hotline, die hilft, das Problem zu lösen.

### "My Survey creation experience using Survey Monkey"

June 30, 2023

4.0

I am solving a lot of business problems with Survey Monkey like analyzing people's behavior and experience of using a product or a service. I realized many benefits like I got more than enough responses along with clarity and results as per expectation.

Pros

The clear, quick, short and simple format are most impactful. The product is surely easy to use. My integration process with Survey Monkey was made easy no doubt.

Cons

There is only one feature that can be improved is that in case there is any possibility of error in future it can be avoided. The Survey Monkey basic feature in the pricing section has limitations is the reason why its difficult to use. Integration with my existing business was not much difficult.

### "A different way to make surveys "

August 14, 2021

It’s a exceptional app/software that has allow me to make my surveys more creative and attractive to the people’s view.

Pros

I like how the hole integration of building your own survey is very intuitive and easy to use and customize, which is a critical feature in order to make your surveys more creative and unique, this comes with even more features to use and try, definitely more to discover.

Cons

It still needs more options to customize your survey, because it has a limited amount of features that allows you to make a more unique look on your survey.

### "Professional Survey Creator "

January 10, 2018

4.0

Survey Monkey has benefited the company that I work for because it allows us to quickly create surveys that are professional and that make it easy for people to respond. The feature that allows you to filter responses has been one of the most beneficial for my company as it helps us to ensure the people that respond to our surveys are the intended audience. For example, if we want to survey supervisors, Survey Monkey allows us to have the first question of a survey ask if the respondent is a supervisor. If the respondent answers no, that they aren't a supervisor, we can immediately have them directed to a thank you page that explains how we appreciate them taking the time for the survey but that at this time we are only seeking responses from current supervisors. It has been a feature that has helped increase survey response accuracy and save the time of those people who are responding because if they aren't the audience we are looking to survey, we immediately filter them out with the first question so they aren't wasting their time responding and so that we aren't wasting time sorting responses that aren't valid four our purposes.

Pros

The thing about Survey Monkey that I like best are its survey templates. Survey Monkey has so many templates of surveys that are professionally built and designed. The questions that are in the templates are diverse, educated and are all designed with the purpose of the survey in mind. Each question in the templates have its own purpose and is important for the bottom line. I like that if you want to use a template but don't want a specific question or you want to add an additional question or edit an existing question - you can. Survey Monkey's templates are fully customizable.

Cons

I do not like that the Survey Monkey logo and branding appear on all surveys that you create with Survey Monkey. The branding even appears in most of the paid versions of Survey Monkey. I think that - especially if you are paying for an account, that you should be able to opt-out of having the Survey Monkey advertising or branding on your surveys. This is important because when you distribute a survey, you do so with the intention of getting as many responses to the survey as possible. In order for people to participate in surveys - especially electronic surveys, they must trust the source. I have found that many people are concerned when responding to electronic surveys that their answers or personal information will be shared. With the Survey Monkey branding - especially for people that are not familiar with Survey Monkey, it could decrease the likelihood of people trusting the source and responding. I think that all versions of Survey Monkey - even the free account - should have the option to remove the branding. However, I especially think that the paid accounts should have the option to remove the branding.

Cons

There are some feature to dislike .. 1. Free version doesn't provide all feature that actually you want. 2. Feature are limits in basic plan than the premium ones. 3.

### "Unsure Who To Blame ..."

March 9, 2021

3.0

The idea behind digital survey taking is incredible, tech does soooo much for the modern world, but when it comes to surveying, marketing, or attempting to do any type of consumer data collection for means of attaining any type of accurate analysis, I dont know if we will ever have a model for selecting candidates that actually benefits and represents a person or company in the totality which we are seeking. The human psyche is astronomical, our decision making process is based on so many different factors that often contradict, none the less its still right, and sometimes wrong. In saying that, the ease of use is incredible, implementation and all things office & "paperwork" are a breeze, however I don't know if it would have been worth it financially to keep it around. Also the time it takes our staff to sort through the data and try to create a system for receiving more accurate results based on the information we seek is outstanding. Most people do not have the time that it takes to complete an in depth questionnaire without some sort of compensation. It will take a while to create a system that returns the results we seek, and that is assuming the survey taker is HONEST!!! Truly incredible. A huge task if you use the software for anything other than entertainment.

Pros

Ease of use, functionality for simple tasks or very basic data collection. Price. Easy to understand dashboard, mostly user friendly.

Cons

Results were not quite what we were seeking, and it wasn't until we used the software on our own did we find out the complexity behind receiving accurate data. We were being phased out when we shouldn't have been and took some time to figure out that maybe the problem lies behind what we are geared towards, the data we seek, and the problems we try to solve for people. Data collection dependent on societies psyche or judgement forming depends on so much, mostly their ideas and experiences in their reality, which may be wildly different than others, based on the same or different factors. So long story short our results were not what we were seeking and its extremely time consuming creating a model for accurate questioning.

Reason for choosing SurveyMonkey

Popularity; a few other products were selected but I was on the team that worked with this software. It seemed like it had been around long enough publicly to trust getting accurate results. You will find that a lot of people still shy away from marketing or data collection. They want to be alone in their worlds, free of computers and information seekers lol. Some, very funny people. Its a huge project that maybe someone will master one day. How incredible would that be??? Its unimaginable. Truly.
