Overall Satisfaction with SurveyMonkey

We are a small marketing firm that cannot afford to use the "high-priced" survey tools. We like to use SurveyMonkey to test out concepts for our clients and prospects as well as learn more about a specific market or industry without spending our limited funds on a research tool. It's great at providing a quick snapshot of a product or service.
  • It's very cost-effective.
  • It's very intuitive.
  • Very robust with features like data analysis, skip logic, etc.
  • More complex questions are a bit of a challenge to format in the software.
  • While it does have a ton of free features - It would be nice if they could add a few of the premium (paid) features to the free version.
  • The fact that their logo appears on the survey is a bit disconcerting, but I think many folks have come to accept this.
  • Allow us to gather information for a new client pitch with minimal expense.
  • Allows our current clients to conduct research at a reasonable cost.
  • Can be used by every member of the marketing team.
By far the best option for the price. It allows a company to determine how important and beneficial market research is without investing huge dollars in a more robust solution. There are many features that make this software exceptional. Particularly, the design and interface, which is not only customizable but also professional looking and minimalistic. I think it certainly makes a lasting impression to an audience when your surveys look the part. It also makes data acquisition seamless for both the surveyor and respondent.
This is a great tool if you are looking for directional research on a project. Survey Monkey has so many templates of surveys that are professionally built and designed. The questions that are in the templates are diverse, educated and are all designed with the purpose of the survey in mind. Each question in the templates have their own purpose and is important for the bottom line.
