Overall Satisfaction with Google Forms

We used Google Forms for everything from monthly breakfast selection to Employee Engagement surveys. We love the ability to transfer the responses into Excel, making it easy to analyze, translate into graphs, etc. It's super customizable, flexible, and very, very user-friendly. Sure, it's not the prettiest or most robust tool you'll ever use, but Google Forms is easy, and gets the job done!
  • Easily customizable
  • Easy data import and analysis
  • Easy interface for form creation and filling out forms
  • The platform could be a little more aesthetically pleasing and sophisticated
  • Using Google Forms has saved us a ton of money - we've been able to gather the data we need without spending tons on the large range of software options out there
I believe Survey Monkey is better geared towards external engagement as well as email campaigning. Google Forms is a simpler version of Survey Monkey, but in many circumstances it still does what you need, so it still stacks up well. If you're still exploring, I'd say give Google Forms a try first, and only consider other options if you find Google Forms is not getting you what you need.
If you're looking to gather internal data, don't look any further than Google Forms. If you're looking for external data, like from customers, it might be worth looking into just how much you can customize the appearance of the forms. There's quite a lot you can do, but you should check if you'd be able to manipulate the forms to look in a way that would represent your company in the way that you'd want.
