Pacer for Teams vs. SurveyMonkey

SurveyMonkey really excels in the survey design aspect of the surveying process. They have so many different question types that you can use to create your questions. The analytics and reporting are basic but ok for those wanting simple insights into their survey answers. Their free plan should suffice for any business that needs the fundamentals of surveying - i.e. survey builder, sharing, and viewing answers.

• SurveyMonkey's survey programming features are extremely intuitive. Someone who has never used it before can, with little direction or training, easily set up a simple - or comprehensive - survey in a matter of minutes.
• Real-time reporting and analytics tools are extremely helpful to keep everyone involved informed on an ongoing basis.
• Virtually any kind of question or answer format can be programmed into your SurveyMonkey survey.

• I think it's becoming pushed to the back-burner as more survey sites come out - it needs to come up with something to keep it more relevant as other survey sites are being more widely used.
• Give more options to customize the look of your survey.

Compared to other competitors in the market (including a few I've used internally), if you're looking for a survey application, this one does the job and it's quite inexpensive too. Considering the fact that it comes with a handy mobile application too (on iOS and Android), you also get flexibility thrown in the deal too.

SurveyMonkey should suffice for most simple use cases to collect responses or feedback from clients. The templates that they offer are helpful as well as the guidance on question formulation. If you just need a stand alone software to distribute and collect surveys, then SurveyMonkey will meet your needs.

still to many limitations for more complex surveys --skips, filtered questions, etc.

I haven’t used the support function yet, but I have had colleagues that have and the issues they’ve faced have been resolved super quickly. They also have said the support people they have come in contact with have been extremely friendly. Those two things are what made me choose my rating

Implementation not required.

Outside of creating our own surveys, no other tools have been used outside of SurveyMonkey. I have heard of a few others but would not be able to provide an honest opinion due to my lack of experience working with them.

• SurveyMonkey has a positive impact on our organization by allowing us to gain insight to our team through the 360 evaluations.
• We have had positive ROI from our client polling questions which have directed new products or services that we offer.
• The analytics were an awesome way to filter and export responses so that our management team could evaluate the information.
