Likelihood to Recommend Novi Survey works really well as a cost-effective option for companies looking to provide surveys and polls to a larger audience. The cost helps provide a great incentive for users to learn the (more complicated) service and save previous templates to save time in the future. The platform enables users the opportunity to export survey / poll results to other formats (such as excel) and quantify the data more effectively. The platform does struggle in immediate availability for users - as there is a larger learning curve compared to other options out in the market. So, if one is looking for immediate speed and accessibility to a platform, they may want to look for another option. However, if there is a dedicated user who is willing to train and improve, then this may be the platform for you.
Read full review Typeform is definitely a leader in the online survey space and that's for a reason. Between logic mapping and the ease of use for the end user, it's a solid app. The unfortunate thing, however, is the price tag--particularly considering the protection you receive from bots. Typeform only allows a certain number of responses at certain package levels, ie: the lowest level, you get a very limited number of responses but in order to receive more responses before your survey is locked, you must upgrade. This is what ultimately lead us to cancel with them. When you post a survey on Typeform, that survey is automatically posted publicly on their website--making it widely available to bots. Typeform offers no easy form of protection like a standardized captcha that you can add to the survey in order to filter bots out. Instead, there are several "work arounds" that they advise users to do that have very limited degrees of success. A quick online search shows that Typeform knows this is clearly an issue, yet they have yet to build in a bot-prevention feature. Since their plan prices vary by number of responses, it seems that they have no incentive to limit the amount of bots filling out surveys I believe. Ultimately, we canceled because, although the app is powerful, it just seemed like their business practices were unethical in my opinion.
Read full review Pros Novi Survey does a fantastic job of allowing users to create nearly unlimited templates for future use. The tool allows users to create surveys that work well for a variety of platforms including mobile applications The platform is extremely cost-effective. My company is extremely large and the average per-user cost is incredibly efficient Read full review The calculator tool allows you to use numerical formulas to create logic within your form for specific behavior. Compatible with modern web browsers for both building a form and publishing, allowing it to work and look good on any device. Integration with products like Zapier allow you to use it as part of a larger automation in your company. Visually pleasing designs with use of themes, images and video to match your branding. Read full review Cons The user-interface of Novi Survey is rather dated. There are many other survey tools that look more up to date. One has to spend a significantly larger amount of time in order to create surveys. The platform is much more manual than others. There is a lack of pre-made templates that can help new users out - especially among most standard types of surveys. Read full review The pricing structure is a little steep, especially for the Pro+ plan. It would be nice if they had an a la carte option because there are some features we are paying for that we will never use. When creating forms, sometimes the cursor will inexplicably leave the field you are typing in and leave you with incomplete sentences. Even though we are paying for our use, we still have the Typeform branding on our forms, which I think should be removed once you upgrade from the basic plan.

Read full review Usability The overall usability of Typeform is extremely easy and self explanatory. It was quick and simple to learn how to create surveys with the templates and how to add and customize the type of answers or questions you ask. It is very easy to pull the data from the survey results, where the data is broken down and has nice graphs.
Read full review Support Rating Typeform has a great help section that ranges from first steps, making a form, and question types to results and account and profile settings. The tutorials are short and concisely cover what you need to get going within a couple of minutes. I think the community is also a plus, as one can ask questions about more complex outcomes or if one gets stuck with a particularly unique form creation scenario.
Read full review Alternatives Considered My company decided on primarily using Novi Survey based on the affordable rate for a large organization. Novi Survey is a quality survey / poll builder that aims for the more manual user. The platform works well in a variety of contexts and has plenty of options to help differentiate and brand your material appropriately. Novi Survey does not have all the bells and whistles directly out of the box but offers a toolkit fit for creating quality content and efficiently extracting the results.
Read full review When looking for a feature rich & flexible / customizable solution, Typeform beats out everyone. However, for specific use cases (like NPS),
AskNicely is a clear winner in terms of features, but is much too expensive. Typeform is also fun to use, especially compared to
Wufoo which seems so out of date
Read full review Return on Investment Effective survey tool for an affordable price Learning the platform has increased end-user knowledge about survey logic Novi Survey offers compatibility between both desktop and mobile platforms - increasing accessibility for responses Read full review Typeform has helped guide our Customer Success, Product, and Marketing teams in strategizing how to engage with customers better, and it has also given us a quick and easy way to do so! By collecting feedback and being able to share it across internal teams, we can coordinate our efforts to build our customers a better tool. Typeform has proved to be an elegant solution to one of our earlier vexing problems (previous survey tools that looked annoying, had extremely limited branding options/were not customizable, and didn't integrate well with the rest of our tool set) while not breaking the bank for us - it's a very reasonable price point and does WAY more than the previous tools we were paying just as much for.
