MaritzCX vs. SurveyMonkey

I think MaritzCX was a great option for internal and external surveys. I used it for feedback from clients who attended events. It gave me a clean report to show executive leadership about anything from venue, parking, food, and entertainment. It worked for event registration to save money using only one software. I used it for clients to sign up for events. Less of a clean report but works.

SurveyMonkey is best suited for you if you find that you are creating multiple survey regularly. It offers a variety of questions and options and is a well-rounded surveying tool. It is not best if you do not create surveys often, typically use the same survey, or looking for software to create quizzes or assessments. Also, if you are easily overwhelmed by too many options, this may not be the tool for you.

• Easy to use format (not HTML coding knowledge required)
• Detailed reports
• Ability to save and re-use same themes and surveys

• SurveyMonkey templates have made it very user-friendly. It is very efficient to create a survey.
• I love that they have multiple ways to answer questions. For example, short answer, paragraph, and radio buttons to name a few.
• The surveys are very easy to share. You can import a large list of email addresses or free type just a few.
• I like that you can test the survey before sending it out live. I send it to myself to verify how it will look and feel to the end-user.

• Ability to customize look of survey limited
• Some reports in CSV were a mess to fix up
• Support seemed limited

• Recognizing that there are more limitations when it comes to a mobile interface vs. a desktop interface, I would love to see more profound levels of programming functionality on the mobile side.
• It would be helpful to have better access to greater levels of third-party results analysis, particularly as it relates to open-ended questions and answers.
• As an admin, it would be very cool if SurveyMonkey were able to use AI to match the survey we're building (questions, topics, target respondents, etc.) to existing results that might negate the need to ask certain questions in our surveys.

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.

It does everything a survey software should do, and it does it very well. I can't speak for how well it would work for a business that was surveying tens of thousands of people - but for a small business of 50 employees with a couple of thousand clients, it does everything it needs to do.

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

I've never had to contact the SurveyMonkey customer care team directly, but they have a pretty good library of help articles on their website. Everything from designing and executing your survey to account and billing questions. I never had a need for further support from Survey Monkey.

Implementation not required.

MaritzCX was actually to only survey software I have used. No comparison to describe in this section

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 incredibly important to our employees and means we're getting more reliable results from the surveys.

• Saved our department from needing to purchase additional event software

• We use this to survey vendors after a trade show and their comments to me have helped improve other shows. I don't have hard numbers but I know our vendors, some of whom are associate members, are very happy to give this feedback because it helps their ROI too.
• I know it has saved us employee time as we aren't sifting through email responses and entering them into a spreadsheet. SurveyMonkey does that for us.
• We often need to do quick polls to our members to make decisions. This makes them feel like they are getting value for their membership dues that they pay our association.
