  • It reduced response times in the diagnosis of network failures, since the interactions of the technical support agents and the analyzed answers immediately provided concrete results, while in previous occasions it took hours, with Google Forms we were able to have results in minutes.
  • Positively, it has a positive impact on the SLA, since by quickly diagnosing the failure, it is possible to correct it and thus minimize the time of absence of service to our customer.
  • On the customer's side, we understand the daily needs with their feedback, which reaches us in real time, and thus fine-tune processes and services.
  • Increases efficiency of technical support as time can be used for other, more complex diagnostics

  • Google Forms provides us a vehicle to gauge faculty and student response to our online courses and their features in real time so that we can keep our courses updated for students and faculty who facilitate them.
  • Since Google is free, provides storage space, and provides Shared Drives (at least in our institutional account), using Google Forms helps us manage our data. We support over 400 courses with thousands of sections so Google Forms helps us manage the data coming out of these courses, mostly student and faculty feedback about what is working and what is not.
  • We encourage our faculty to use Google Forms to survey their students for prior knowledge, for interest inventories, and the like. It's incredibly nimble and useful for collecting data quickly and presenting results in easy-to-understand charts and graphs.
