### "SurveyMonkey Good than I expected"

August 24, 2022

5.0

Pros

It's pretty decent survey website. It is popular like other survey sites. It's offer good free plan. I also like it about designs and feature for survey variation.

Cons

Main cons for this website is it's only offer limited number of device which isn't good for most of people. It's also among some of the sites who offer free trial limited time.

### "SurveyMonkey Review"

May 30, 2019

5.0

SurveyMonkey is GREAT for first time or novice survey creators. It is also excellent for creating simple, basic surveys that are short and sweet and need to be published on a site or sent to a large mass. I use SurveyMonkey all the time when getting feedback from users about different user interactions and products that I design in my company. The data I gather helps me to improve my design so the user has the best experience when using my products.

Pros

What I like most about this software is it's ease of use even for first-time users. There is little to no learning curve even if it's the first time you're creating a survey. The system has templates for different types of questions (ie. multiple choice, single choice), and allows you to create your own questions in the order you want them to be presented to a user.

Cons

I do not like that you can't stray too far away from it's template and simplistic styling. Sometimes when I am trying to use certain colors, or create questions with complex answer options, the features in SurveyMonkey limit me and I have to find a work-around, if possible. Moreover, they don't give me timely notifications, so sometimes I forgot about my survey that I published and forget to look at responses from customers because I wasn't told by the system someone took the survey.

### "Great product but recent changes to pricing make it more expensive"

January 18, 2019

4.0

Pros

Customization is the most valuable feature of SurveyMonkey. I have worked with other survey software packages and they don't have this level of customization. There are a variety of question types and you can use different rule settings to set users on a varied path depending on their answers. Overall, it's easy to drag and drop questions onto different pages and to create page breaks. There are also a number of design templates to choose from to match the look of your brand or business.

Cons

The customized features work well, once you understand your options. I often have to troubleshoot by trying different question types to see which one works best with the question I am trying to ask. The free version of the software makes it difficult to extract any data, so it really forces the user to subscribe to a paid version. SurveyMonkey recently changed their fee structure, which has made it considerably more expensive for a company with multiple users. You may have a few users that only need a survey once or twice a year, but they are not able to access a team login without having a setup of each IP address. This forces the company to spend more or less individuals have access.

### "Great overall for quick research"

March 12, 2021

5.0

SurveyMonkey is that the awesome, structure-building stage available, But on the off chance that you might want very one client, it's likely over-valued for what you'll sober-mindedly receive in return.

Pros

At whatever point you might want a zone to shape a quick overview and assemble results, this stage is incredible and clear to utilize. SurveyMonkey makes it simple to make overviews and information input frames by and large. the shape developer is natural, bolsters almost any inquiry type, and might be designed to jump to various segments of the shape because of sources of info.

Cons

Some element that the product needs is essential for our business and something that contenders do have. This appears to be strange in light of the fact that most business clients may just utilize admittance to make accommodation information, with just a get not many really utilizing the primary highlights of the stage.

### "Survey Monkey Business! No Playing Monkey Games Here!"

October 24, 2018

5.0

Outstanding! Would give this business an A+ all the way around! Easy payout and fun to do at the same time!

Pros

The ease of use first of all! It is very easy to manuever around for sure! Plus they genuinely ask questions that you are interested in and I love the statistics that is shown at the end of each survey! Nice to know what other people's points of views are and what they think believe and are passionate as well too!

Cons

Nothing really! Other than the fact my mind goes blank sometimes and I can't think of anything else to ask! Lol!

### "Quick survey "

June 29, 2023

5.0

Survey monkey is simple but a visionary platform to create surveys and gather relative data in the best ways possible.

Pros

It's quick and easy way to get output from the people. Conducting survey through has made work a lot easier.

Cons

Haven't found anything yet about survey monkey. So far it's so good and easy to use.Certainly the interface could be improved.

### "Descent software for short-term projects"

March 4, 2020

5.0

The most valuable feature was the possibility of having multiple collectors with the same questionnaire in case there is a need to separate the control groups without changing the questionnaire. With IP registration it allows to remove the geographical locations that are not included in the research. The problem with duplicate IPs can be solved prior the data collection (in survey design stage).

Pros

The soft is good for real-time data availability, the interface is user-friendly, there is a very detailed online data analytics. Moreover, I like it very much for the admin app availability and thus mobile notification in case of new responses (in addition to email notifications). Also, there are options for data download in .sav, .xlsx, .csv, .pdf formats.

Cons

When downloading the data in SPSS (.sav), the database needs additional reconstruction: 1. When the question type is "Number", and only "Number" values can be typed, the variable is considered as nominal in the database (not as scale as i would expect), 2. For multicodes the selected options in the database in their respective column appear with their own number (and not in 0s and 1s (not selected - selected) as accepted in the research community). The other minuses is the absence of setting quotas and also it is not possible to use text piping and connect two questions with previous answer together. Complex logic of the questionnaire flow cannot be applied.

### "I've got the numbers!!"

February 26, 2019

5.0

I have utilized the software for 10 years. The first time was in college and did a presentation based upon the findings utilizing the stats and graphs. Later on, the Administration bought a paid version which allowed for more users to respond.

Pros

SurveyMonkey is a great tool that I have either used to create or to take surveys. My first experience with it was in college. I used the free version to create a survey for the student government in assessing certain tasks within the organization. I was able to share the statistics and provided colored graphs for better understating in the presentation. I've also utilized it with other companies that wanted to ask me certain questions. They were easy and quick to fill out.

Cons

Sometimes there is no back button in certain surveys to go back and correct an answer. The free version is great if you need to do short surveys with very few people. Hopefully, the options for it can come in better packages.

### "Caution: Extremely user-friendly"

March 8, 2019

5.0

Our team has used survey monkey for years and it does what it needs to do. It's straightforward and works well on all types of devices. It's the answer for online survey projects.

Pros

SurveyMonkey is very easy to use. You don't have to be tech-savvy to know your way around this platform. The reporting features are also impressive and this tool allows you to export results as a CSV or PDF. It allows you to mail a large number of participants at once. For data visualization, it allows you to customize charts and graphs. There is a long list of ways to gather information and respondents can fill out the form in a breeze.

Cons

I wish they would allow adding of graphics or video into the survey. This has been present in some survey platforms and it would be a great plus for SurveyMonkey to add these, too. Aside from that, I do not see any major glitches.

### "SurveyMonkey"

October 3, 2019

5.0

Everything is going perfect with the software that we are using, very effective and easy to use. Clients seem happy and have no problems answering our surveys.

Pros

It is an easy way to interact and see what costumers and the staff of the company need, or want. We use this software with our clients and with our staff, with our clients we use it to see how they would qualify our costumer service and withe the staff in order to see how everything is going in the company.

Cons

The thing i liked the least is the way that people can connect to the URL in different devices and answer different times if the survey is annonymous.

Alternatives considered

[Zoho Survey](https://www.capterra.com/p/131426/Zoho-Survey/)

Reason for choosing SurveyMonkey

SurveyMonkey seemed easier and more friendly to use than Zoho.

### "Easy to Use Tool - Possibilities Limitless!"

January 7, 2019

4.0

Overall, a great tool, especially when looking for a free option to get started with simple surveys. The expanded options with a pro account does provide great value as well, I really like the ability to use fairly robust features of the application at the free level for as long as I needed before deciding to upgrade to the pro level account. Easy to use, easy to get input through a web-based survey.

Pros

Ease of use, participants aren't required to create an account and the built-in questions offer some great options to get your survey laid out well. The free account level does provide you with a method to create a valuable survey, distribute the survey as needed, and review the results. Able to brand the survey for your organization/business.

Cons

Initial learning curve is high because of how customizable the survey tool is, but it takes very little time to understand how to use Survey Monkey to do exactly what you need. There are some limitations with the free account.

### "Survey Monkey has multiple benefits"

November 25, 2018

5.0

Overall, using Survey Monkey has been a positive experience. I feel as though more places should use a similar model (going through Survey Monkey) to collect information for awards or nominations, maybe even proposal submissions because it was so easy to follow.

Pros

In the past, I used Survey monkey to conduct surveys and get information for projects, experiments, and research. However, most recently it was the platform I used to nominate someone for the American Red Cross Heroes Breakfast. I like that it made it easier to provide all the necessary information that was requested.

Cons

Once I got to the end and clicked 'done' and new survey popped up. There was no 'Thank you for your submission' or any type of confirmation that my information had been captured. I did not like that because it took me 30 minutes to do the nomination and I had type a great deal of content that I would not have been able to retrieve. I was left wondering if it had even gone through. So I went on the Survey Monkey customer service portion of the website (FAQ's) and learned that all entries are recorded and submitted once you click 'done'. That was reassuring, but it would have been nice to not have to go through all of that with simply a confirmation of receipt (and maybe a final preview sheet (of all that I had typed) before submitting).

### "Survey Monkey is fine"

March 17, 2020

4.0

Survey Monkey definitely helps with research and reaching your audience. It is intuitive enough to do yourself without much help and does everything you'll need it to do. You have to have some patience when starting if you have a long survey, I guess that's what you'd find with any other service. Ultimately Survey Monkey does a good job doing exactly what you need it to. If needed you can integrate other products and services to do even more. Play around with it and see if you like it. Survey Monkey should for sure be your first stop when considering how to conduct your survey. I definitely use Survey Monkey more than other online survey sites. They organize the data easily and can integrate with Google Docs as well as other programs you might need to use. Despite its initially simple look it has some advanced features if needed.

Pros

The best part of survey monkey is its impact and accessibility. It is one of the biggest survey sites on the internet and makes reaching out to people easy and affective. A lot of people have used Survey Monkey before so as far as people using it, there isn't a learning curve for them to have to overcome before providing the information you're looking for.

Cons

It is not very intuitive, the overall look of the site isn't the best and UX could be improved. It's nice they try to build a survey for you but I find it mostly useless. It may be the line of work I do or the nature of the surveys bit. The flaws are not as bad as the good you can do with Survey Monkey. Maybe I just don't like the name

### "Survey Monkey Reviews for General Survey Use "

February 23, 2021

4.0

Overall, I am just a casual casual user of this product several occasion. However, the experience had always been excellent and nothing bad to say about this software. Overall performance was good in general. Maybe a little bit too in depth at times but I guess that is what it is supposed to be.

Pros

Ease of use of Survey Monkey review is easy and practical for any industry and applies to general business in everyday working individuals. For companies that are in search of feedbacks from employees and personnel actual positive and negative experiences; this would give them the response that they would be looking for. Is something that I most like about this product is the functionality that it does give the ability to be able to project for this.

Cons

Like most software in its category I do believe there is not much that is to be said in this. As it does perform what it is do in terms of its function and application. Nothing not to like.

### "One of the best email survey platforms available. "

June 16, 2018

4.0

I enjoy creating these surveys. They're so easy to use, it actually makes you feel smart using it.

Pros

This app works similarly to other survey platforms. You create, send, and analyze data from surveys. This one in particular was the first one I have used. I don't use it too much to justify paying a monthly subscription, so the fact that there is a free version is absolutely critical. The ease of use is probably this app's strongest pro. Whether viewing data collected from responses on a particular survey, or changing a question from fill in the blank to multiple choice, this app is seemless.

Cons

As I stated before, there are loads of these types of apps out there. While Survey Monkey still ranks highly on that list, it falls victim to competition. Google Forms allows users to do much of the same things at a similar ease-all of this for free. If Survey Monkey wants to compete in this market, they need to offer something that their competitors cannot. Personally, I find the UI to be a little bland. Google forms has a similar issue. One way Survey Monkey could improve their product is by creating a more visually appealing user interface and visually appealing surveys. This is a huge need.

### "Better than other survey software but not for "budgetarians""

June 12, 2021

5.0

If given a budget I would definitely prefer using SurveyMonkey for its graphics and professional view, it has complete features but the fees are a little high from clients' and companies' preference.

Pros

The graphics it shows on analytics make online work slightly boring as a PC user for so many hours in a day, it is very tiring looking at a boring screen with Bluelight and plain colors, SurveyMonkey at first looks like child-like but as time goes by I appreciate the colors they put on its design.

Cons

I'm a bit of a "budgetarian", companies too prefer low-cost software to use on daily use, and there is other software that offers free to low-cost features the same as the SurveyMonkey's.

By being able to tie the Survey's to training has made this tool an optimum choice when needing the opinion's of the trainees.

Pros

This tool is so easy to use. The ability to manipulate and leverage the different templates is awesome. Reporting is so easy and it can all be anonymous which results in more people actually taking the survey. Tying it to training initiatives is awesome!

Cons

Don't have a negative aspect although perhaps having someone to call for support should I need it.

Survey Monkey os the bedrock of my business. I couldn't run it without it. I took a clunky paper-based questionnaire and turned it into a sleek, professional, accessable option that adds huge value to my clients.

Pros

Easy to use, easy to set up, able to tailor to suits my needs from branding and colours to logos to frequenlty asked questions. Love that I can hyperlink and upload through Survey Monkey.

Cons

My only issue is that I cannot set a permanent page redirection for the end of surveys. The work aroun dis to add it manually to each page.
