SurveyLegend
Chose SurveyLegend
Although I used the SurveyMonkey service for a few months, it did not meet the expectations of being able to reach users by sending the surveys in bulk due to their high prices. I am extremely happy with the change I made.
Chose SurveyLegend
We decided to change from SurveyMonkey to SurveyLegend because it is more complete and allows us to have freedom when creating with the templates. Its complete tools allow us to improve texts and photos to make the questions more objective and receive answers. For users, it is …
Chose SurveyLegend
Survey Legend had several features the others did not, and was still overall very affordable for our setup.
Chose SurveyLegend
I've used pretty much all of the free survey creation websites you'd find on Google... On the first 4 or 5 pages. SurveyLegend is the best I've found, and I suspect it's probably the best one available.
Chose SurveyLegend
SurveyLegend is very friendly to the is customer, but the analysis is making it very hard to finish my job.
Chose SurveyLegend
This is the only survey software i have used up until now.
Chose SurveyLegend
Better graphics and easier to use. I also don't feel like they are trying to nickel and dime me.
Chose SurveyLegend
Honesty, I like SurveyLegend more on every level. More intuitive, more what I want.
SurveyMonkey
Chose SurveyMonkey
I think we were looking for a survey products, so when I think about survey products; SurveyMonkey is the only solution
Chose SurveyMonkey
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.
Chose SurveyMonkey
SurveyMonkey is way better than jotform for surveys, simply because it is a dedicated survey software, whereas Jotform is more general form builder. If a business's sole purpose is to send a survey out and view responses, SurveyMonkey is better than Jotform in every category.
Chose SurveyMonkey
As [I] mentioned in the previous comments, [I believe] there is no comparison. [In my opinion,] SurveyMonkey is a market lagger.
Chose SurveyMonkey
The tool is free, but we selected SurveyMonkey because we were able to easily pull the data and do the analysis.
Chose SurveyMonkey
I have only used this software and have not used others.
Chose SurveyMonkey
In terms of creating surveys and analyzing their results, the main competitor we use is Qualtrics. I think Qualtrics has better features, a more professional environment, and more robust tools. This can also be negative as it can be overwhelming for untrained users. I have …
Chose SurveyMonkey
SurveyMonkey has the most options in terms of available question formats, analysis and participant tracking, and customizability. Google Forms is a more basic interface with fewer options for tracking and analysis, and Typeform is better in terms of design and branding options …
Chose SurveyMonkey
SurveyMonkey offers a better end user and survey building experience. The tools to easily create a fun and engaging survey are easily accessible, easy to understand, and easy to use. You could go as far as to say that a monkey could figure out how to use SurveyMonkey.
Chose SurveyMonkey
I've only built my own in Access, SharePoint, and HTML. I don't like any of them. Plus, anything internal like SharePoint is going to have a network user/time stamp, and that wont increase participation at all.
Chose SurveyMonkey
SurveyMonkey is the least used between Wufoo, Titan Forms, and Google Forms. It is a solid program, however, for our uses the other programs provide additional features such as syncing to our CRM database, accepting Stripe payments, or automatically syncing with my already …
Chose SurveyMonkey
SurveyMonkey is easier to customize and provides much more in depth analytics. SurveyMonkey also provides better templates providing us with a better presentation to our employees. SurveyMonkey also comes with a more trustworthy platform that ensures confidentiality, which is …
Chose SurveyMonkey
SurveyMonkey has more analytic data options than what I found using Google Forms. Otherwise, if you use the Google Suite of products you may find it easier to just use Google Forms. When it comes to our website forms we have switched to JotForm as it has a better display on our …
Chose SurveyMonkey
It's probably above Google Surveys and below the other two. I didn't select SurveyMonkey, the company already had it and I made the decision to get an additional license for my work.
Chose SurveyMonkey
In my opinion, SurveyMonkey is the gold standard. Google Forms and Google Surveys, while being able to connect easily to other Google tools, are not as adept or intuitive as SurveyMonkey is. Google is trying to be all things for all people, and while it does a lot of those …
Chose SurveyMonkey
SurveyMonkey has more than 150 survey templates to choose from that are expert-written ranging from market research product survey, customer satisfaction survey templates, 360-degree employee evaluation, product testing, website feedback and so much more. It has more …
Chose SurveyMonkey
I have used Qualtrics as well. I would say Qualtrics is a more of a higher end survey solution but if your needs are basic survey monkey is probably the better value and easier to get started.
Chose SurveyMonkey
While Google Forms is free, the ability to design and customize forms/surveys would prove to be beneficial to the end user. Google Forms is very limited to multiple editors while SurveyMonkey provides viewing, editing, and commenting to editors. Additionally, the access to 200 …
Chose SurveyMonkey
SurveyMonkey has more professional features, templates and theme options than Google Surveys
Chose SurveyMonkey
From my experience, I honestly think most of these tools are interchangeable, they have very similar functionality and can meet the same needs. I think there are more custom features that help all these tools differentiate themselves, however, my experience with them has been …
Chose SurveyMonkey
I've been using SurveyMonkey for more than 20 years - most of the competitor solutions that I reviewed over 20 years ago don't even exist any longer, or they've been acquired by other firms. SurveyMonkey has stood the test of time, and never given me the need to seek out other …
Chose SurveyMonkey
I like [SurveryMonkey] better because it is a way easier website to use. Very user friendly. The website is very easy to get all the feedback together in one place. The other website I used had a lot of glitches and was different than survey monkey. That website was too much …
Chose SurveyMonkey
We really didn't look at alternatives. The only alternatives we looked at was developing our own surveys, via email and/or baking them directly into our applications, but SurveyMonkey really did all the heavy lifting, so to speak, by providing a one-stop shop for constructing, …

Likelihood to Recommend
Definitely appropriate for us, with <1000 survey responses but some simple logic and routing that we wanted to build in. Nice very visual UI that lets you preview and makes it easy to test. I can't speak to how well it would work with very long, very complex surveys or more rigid work environments.

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.

Pros
  • SurveyLegend allows users to customize their templates and survey.
  • Optimized many details and features and polls through analytics and data.
  • User-friendly and simple to use.
Read full review
  • 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.
Read full review
Cons
  • Improved correlation of the data between the analytics tool and the responses (i.e. it says 3 responses have been received, but only shows results for 2)
Read full review
  • 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.
