Overall Satisfaction with Google Forms

Google Forms is a very simple way to collect data through an easily customizable form (think surveys, requests, applications, voting on different things - there are lots of use cases that pop up daily). It is used across the organization as a part of GSuite. Without Google Forms, there would be a lot of manual data compilation necessary.
  • Easy to use both as the person creating the form and completing the form
  • Easy to collaborate on the form with other GSuite users
  • Easy to share the results
  • Google Forms doesn't allow you to do much with formatting easily (i.e., bold certain parts of your question, put in nice looking links.)
  • Google Forms doesn't have as many advanced analytic features as a SurveyMonkey for instance; however it is nice for just needing the basics.
  • Democratized access to creating forms quickly across the company; no bottlenecks because everyone can do it!
We did not examine other alternatives because Google Forms came with GSuite, which we were already using company-wide. I have, in the past, also used SurveyMonkey and Wufoo Forms.

Do you think Google Forms delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Yes

Did Google Forms live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Google Forms go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Google Forms again?

Yes

Google Forms is very easy to use! Some features can be tricky to find initial (like understanding how to do branching, for instance) and it would be great to have continued customization available on Google Forms, but generally it is very easy to use for collecting data quickly.
Most support will require going to online forums - a self-service approach to finding answers.
Some great uses:
  • Collecting current mailing addresses
  • Employee applications for different mailing addresses
  • Collecting votes for a company event/prize
Less ideal:
  • Surveys with advanced data analytics needed
