Overall Satisfaction with Google Forms

I mostly use Google Forms for event RSVP forms within my department and the courses that I teach. Often times, registrants use personal email addresses when doing school or work tasks and they try to register with non-university email accounts. It has been a very easy way to make simple forms that are locked down to only people within my organization and require organization email accounts.

Pros

  • Forms has an easy-to-use interface for building forms. The ability to add and revise questions/question types is very intuitive.
  • The publishing options (generating a shareable link, shortened link, embed code) make it easy to disseminate forms to stakeholders on our campus.
  • Connecting form responses to a Google Sheet makes accessing data quick. Setting up automatic form notification emails for new responses is a great feature.

Cons

  • It would be helpful if the file upload type could be utilized when a form is stored within a Shared Drive.
  • It would be awesome to be able to create an RSVP form that could be linked to a calendar event that automatically adds respondents to the calendar event.
  • At an enterprise level, all of our faculty, staff, and students have access, making it an equitable solution.
Google Forms is very intuitive and it has enough advanced features that allows a user to create forms that capture data in various forms. The ability to create and access forms and data from Google Drive makes it easy to access, edit, and publish forms from any device.
Google Forms is much easier to use than other form/survey platforms like Qualtrics or SurveyMonkey. While the others have much more advanced features, Google Forms can handle about 90% of the forms/surveys that I create.

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

Yes

Are you happy with Google Forms's feature set?

Yes

Did Google Forms live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Google Forms go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Google Forms again?

Yes

Google Forms is best suited for simpler forms where there is not a need for complex survey flows. I find it best for internal data collection that are only available to those within your organization, reducing the chances of collecting responses from bots.
