Qualtrics is excellent, very robust, but extremely expensive. If an organization does not have the means, it's probably beyond most people's reach. SurveyMonkey's features are good, but one has to pay more to get what I got with SoGoSurvey. I evaluated various other survey …

Qualtrics and Google Forms both are ok but do not have the same functionality as SoGoSurvey, I would not use Google Forms because of serious shortcomings on question types and data analysis and I would prefer to use Sogo over Qualitics for the functionality boost, Qualtrics has …

I evaluated several different products, including SurveyMonkey. SoGoSurvey appeared to have the most features at the best value. Unfortunately, the "free" service didn't satisfy our needs and we had to upgrade during the first survey. I found SurveyMonkey and SoGoSurvey to …
The three of them have many similarities, Qualtrics seemed more robust but it felt overwhelming for my needs. Once the SurveyMonkey trial period expired, we were unable to print or access any of the work we have done; this wasn't an issue with SoGo. SoGo customer service …
I did not have experience using SurveyMonkey previous to our use of SoGoSurvey, but I do know that those who did were excited to hear about a lack of restrictions on survey deployment and some other features that were lacking in the free version of SurveyMonkey.
SurveyMonkey allowed our team to design a complete survey, before asking us to pay a subscription price after this had been finished. This wasted our time and felt like a trick, making us invest time and energy in designing something that would be wasted unless you gave them …
When we were looking for a replacement for SurveyMonkey due to not being able to carry out a specific type of questionnaire without being on a higher level package we discovered SoGoSurvey who were able to provide these features without any additional costs. SoGoSurvey was the …
I've used several other survey tools, but for this specific case, I needed a somewhat more sophisticated tool for a specific and larger customer survey with several options. Also the survey needed to be company branded so customers really felt it came from us.
We ultimately went with SoGoSurvey because of its user friendly functionality, robust reporting with customizable graphs and charts, including the word cloud feature and the template library. I also found that the other products we considered were so much more robust than we …
SoGoSurvey was more flexible in my opinion compared to the other survey company's I looked at. It had a monthly price option that allowed for the type of logic we needed in our questions. It had great reports, a simple user interface, and tons of helpful tools and question …
They are very similar products but in the end SoGo's customer service won out. They were so helpful and attentive and we didn't go through multiple layers of people in the Sales process.
SoGoSurvey provided more functionality and better reporting survey metrics for a good pricepoint.

SoGoSurvey offered the best value for money mix of features compared to other products that I have investigated. However, recent price increases has undermined this.
SoGoSurvey stacks up against these other two products with its diverse set of reporting/analytics options, question types, and overall workflow. The ability to track a user's score in the Assessments is highly useful for our team, and not possible on other platforms. We …
I find SoGoSurvey to be a powerful software and yet easy to use. Other software that I have used in the past would take a long time to build and edit and set up different logic. It was usually painful to make changes to surveys that were live. The distribution of surveys …
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 …
One of the most significant benefits of using Sogolytics is its robust reporting capabilities. The platform allows us to generate comprehensive reports with clear visualizations, making communicating our results to funders easy. This has greatly enhanced our transparency and accountability, demonstrating the effectiveness and impact of our programs.As a nonprofit organization, we are incredibly grateful for Sogolytics' support to organizations like ours. The platform's accessibility and user-friendly interface have made it an indispensable tool in our efforts to provide quality programs to schools and students in need.
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.
Providing users the ability to follow along a specific question example (eg. placeholder text in questions that users can see what the answer might look like)
Better media management and implementation (eg. placing images/videos/gifs/etc. as standalone assets in the survey)
Making the images added into a survey responsive to the screen they are being viewed on (eg. any images added to a survey do not adjust to the size of the screen, consequently showing up very small on mobile/tablet view)
Exporting the survey to Word looks horrible - we'd love if the survey could be exported the way it looks when live into a similar-looking Word document or template
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.
Everything on the platform is laid out logically and in a manner that even our less technical administrators can go onto the system and create/manage any surveys or feedback questionnaires. The options for distribution of these surveys are also simple and straight forward with all available choices showing. Our users don't need to know the ins and outs of the system to be able to use it.
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.
I had an issue whereby I used a free trial that ended, locking me out of my account. I contacted their customer service to help with this issue, which they resolved in under half an hour. I was extremely impressed with their speed and quality of service, which led me to filling out this review!
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.
I evaluated several different products, including SurveyMonkey. SoGoSurvey appeared to have the most features at the best value. Unfortunately, the "free" service didn't satisfy our needs and we had to upgrade during the first survey. I found SurveyMonkey and SoGoSurvey to be very comparable.
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.
Cost. The software is very reasonably priced when judged against its functionality. The cost and risk of deploying paper surveys, coupled with the additional time it would take to input the data before analysis, means we have a lot less to worry about, have saved time and money.
Data and reputation. Security of data is important to us. Using this software has enhanced our credibility with clients. We're serious about data security and this software shows that we are.
Ethics and reputation. We are also serious about achieving the highest ethical standards in research, and nothing in this software impedes our ability to meet these standards.
Speed. The online training, all of which has been 1-2-1, helped me get to grips with the software and deploy it quickly. The quality of training is very high indeed.
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.
