Software for online surveys. Give your employees the opportunity to anonymously express their views and opinions

Survey builders are software for creating online questionnaires, collecting results and analytics. They can be used to carry out marketing research and in personnel management. Almost all constructors work like cloud platforms and offer functionality for creating surveys of any complexity.

How designers were selected for review

Not fully included in the review free services like Google Forms. They will help you collect simple information, but are inferior in functionality to professional designers. The exception was “Yandex.Vzglyad”: this new tool, which recently passed closed testing, and it was interesting to try it out. Also left outside the scope of the review were survey designers that were not at least partially adapted for Russian users.

How parameters were selected for comparison

Each survey builder has several dozen functions. Some of them, for example, the “Single Answer” question type, the ability to insert media files into the questionnaire or generate a link to it, are available by default for any similar service, and therefore are not mentioned in the review. We focus on distinctive features And general impression from work.

The service is created and supported from Russia, therefore technical issues resolved quite quickly through the manager. The constructor is easy to use and functional - it has 16 types of questions and 10 types of collecting answers. Plus, each question type has settings, display rules, and quotas.

The service has free features, but they are quite modest, but affordable tariff“Basic” for 690 rubles per month offers fully developed functionality with logical branches.

It is important that the “Questionnaire”’s capabilities are not limited to access to the designer. You can also order the services of sociologists and marketers to compile questionnaires, as well as select an audience for research through their own panel of respondents with 100 thousand participants from Russia and neighboring countries.

Pros: more than 100 questionnaire templates, a variety of tariff plans, decent functionality at the minimum tariff, free access to the API.

Minuses: lack of integration with third party services.

Chip: specialist services for developing questionnaires and an online panel for conducting research.

Why choose: if you need help writing questionnaires and reports, or want to conduct a large study in any region.

This service does not have free functionality, only a 7-day trial period. To test the constructor, you need to leave your payment details. The main thing is not to forget to cancel the registration if the service is not suitable for you: otherwise the money will be debited from the card.

Examinare specializes in developing comprehensive research programs for business. Access to the survey designer for independent work- just one of the company’s many services and far from the main one. Perhaps this explains its modest capabilities (only 7 types of questions).

To work, you will have to open 2 accounts - one for financial transactions, the other is actually for working in the constructor. This is not very convenient, the multi-account function with a main account and sub-accounts with limited rights seems like a better option.

Pros: a large number of integration modules with third-party services, prompt Russian-language support by email, Additional services for business.

Minuses: limited opportunities designer, few payment methods, outdated design of questionnaires, lack of a free plan.

Chip: Possibility to order telephone surveys.

Why choose: if you need anything more than collecting data through online surveys.

Simpoll offers the creation of 3 types of questionnaires: tests, voting and surveys themselves. This is a moderately capable designer. Inexpressive from a visual point of view, but simple, convenient and with a bonus in the form of simple logical rules in the questionnaire, even on the free plan.

The minimum tariff costs only 150 rubles per month, but you must take it for at least 3 months (like 2 other paid tariffs). This designer has a superpower: for just 12 thousand rubles you can buy it boxed version with all the functionality.

Pros: many payment options, low price, forms for creating tests, your own online panel of respondents.

Minuses: export of results only in xls even with paid plans, inexpressive design of questionnaires, average capabilities of the designer.

Chip: boxed version.

Why choose: if you need the boxed version.

The most popular survey builder in the world, it helps users collect more than 15 million responses every day. The designer's interface is overloaded with details and is not very convenient to use. These are the costs of functionality that includes all features good designer and a bunch additional options such as a database of ready-made questions, A/B testing and the ability to invite experts to evaluate the created questionnaire.

It will be a little difficult for an inexperienced user to figure out what's what. And this takes into account the tips generously scattered throughout the service and the detailed “Help Center” section.

Other Surveymonkey achievements: integration with a huge amount services (Mailchimp, Dropbox and others) and an application for mobile devices, suitable for full-fledged work. There is also a panel of respondents, but it is not yet available in Russia.

Pros: rich functionality, many formats for downloading data, excellent adaptation to mobile devices, affordable prices, database of ready-made questions.

Minuses: high barrier to entry, lack of support in Russian.

Chip: mobile app to create questionnaires.

Why choose: if you want the most powerful functionality available today and are able to figure it out on your own.

At first glance, the designer is convenient; what catches your eye is the amazing modesty of functionality.

The problems begin when the user moves to the stage of collecting responses and analyzing the results: options for sending questionnaires are simply scattered across the page, there is no structure in them. And for some reason the page itself is not translated into Russian.

The support team answers questions via email quickly, although again in English. The prices for the three paid plans offered are average.

Pros: form for creating tests, questionnaire logic on the free plan.

Minuses: ugly usability, lack of Russian-language support.

Chip: —

Why choose: For a Russian-speaking user, there are no advantages over competitors or at least strengths in this designer.

A good service with functionality above average and far ahead of competitors in the visual component. Survio has a beautiful designer, questionnaires and even templates for reports uploaded to pdf. Even free plan allows you to choose the color and gradient background questionnaires

It is all the more surprising that the designer itself (not the site) is displayed incorrectly on smartphones with any operating systems. It seems that when adapting for Russian market This option has not been tested at all.

For the respondent, the questionnaire on a mobile phone will still look great, but the user will not be able to create this questionnaire from a phone. Another big disadvantage is the lack of support in Russian, although the service is translated in good faith and is not difficult to understand.

Pros: great design, strong functionality, advanced options for filtering results and exporting data.

Minuses: lack of Russian-language support, complete impossibility work from mobile devices, quite high minimum cost tariff.

Main feature: high level visual component.

Why choose: only for aesthetic reasons.

The somewhat inflated description of the functionality of this constructor is striking. Let's say the background setting and font setting are specified here as individual opportunities. Although in essence this is the simplest customization. Therefore, upon a superficial acquaintance with the impressive list of capabilities, it seems that the designer can do more than he really can.

To be fair, one cannot call him weak either. There are also strong points, such as the logic in the questionnaire and the ability to export results using the free plan.

The tariff schedule is extremely ascetic: either you pay 1,790 rubles for one survey, or 17,900 for annual access. The service does not offer any other options.

Here you can also order help in compiling a survey and selecting an audience. Respondents are selected not through a panel, but through invitations on social networks and on thematic forums.

Pros: Questionnaire logic on a free plan, help in creating a questionnaire, many formats for uploading results.

Minuses: outdated website, inflexible tariff schedule, unattractive design of questionnaires.

Why choose: if you want to select an audience for a survey on social networks and forums.

Modern, beautiful and convenient designer. The developers' attention to detail and functionality in general is evident: the user is offered 24 types of questions, 16 of which are available in the free plan. There are up to 10 parameter settings for each question. The service is perfectly adapted for mobile devices, and at the stage of creating a profile you can see how it will be displayed on each of them.

The support works quickly; during the day, questions are answered via online chat in a matter of seconds; it is rare that such a service can afford this.

However, Oprosso is not a tool for everyone. Price policy makes it suitable only for large clients. There is a free plan, but it is very limited in capabilities. Full-fledged working functions are available for 99,900 rubles per year, and all available functionality will cost 1,200,000 rubles per year.

As soon as the company launches a more affordable and diversified tariff schedule, the designer will have almost no weak points. Unless the interface is too heavy, eating up a lot of RAM.

Pros: professional types questions, visually attractive design, rich design capabilities, fast support in Russian.

Minuses: heavy interface, too modest functionality of the free plan, high price.

Chip: Rich functionality + great design.

Why choose: if you want to full package functions and at the same time you can not deny yourself anything.

The survey designer from the famous company still has a lot of weak points, this applies not only to functionality. For example, users of this service must accept the fact that they will not be able to disable the Yandex logo in their surveys and will have to submit each survey for moderation.

You can conduct any surveys on your own database of respondents for free, but independent method There is essentially only one way to distribute the finished questionnaire - through a generated link.

You can also “select” respondents based on socio-demographic or behavioral characteristics using the Yandex.Audience service. You can interview no more than 1,000 people at a time in this way; it will cost up to 70 thousand rubles.

Although big fans of Yandex analytical tools may like the designer due to its familiar interface and clear principles work.

Pros: good help center for users, free creation of questionnaires subject to self-collection of answers.

Minuses: modest design capabilities, lack of design customization, mandatory moderation of the questionnaire.

Chip: audience selection based on socio-demographic and behavioral characteristics using Yandex tools.

Why choose: if you have your own base of respondents and are ready to put up with the obvious functional imperfections of the tool.

Are the impressive costs of conducting research with the help of marketing agencies always justified, and is there an alternative to agencies at all? Of course, to conduct an in-depth analysis of the market or tasks of comparable scale, there is a direct route to marketers, if, of course, the budget allows. But in less global studies, online surveys will help - there are services that allow you to conduct online surveys as simply as possible: you create a survey, distribute it and receive already processed results. Which service to choose and how do such services differ?

I propose to evaluate them according to the following parameters:
- Is there a trial version?
- Is there a free version, and what does it include?
- Cost and capabilities of the basic tariff.
- Optimization for mobile devices.
- Opportunities for distributing the survey.
- Design settings.
- Finding the server.

Each of the listed services is constantly working to expand its functionality, trying to offer its users something unique. However, to conduct high-quality online research, many of these problems turn out to be simply unnecessary, and a standard set of functions, which is available on all of the above-mentioned services, is sufficient.
The important thing is that often the creator of the questionnaire, in addition to his client base, also needs to interview random respondents, who can be difficult to find. And then you will need help in finding respondents, which is provided only by some services, and those providing this service take different approaches to collecting answers. Of course, the possibility of self-distribution of the survey is also important, where it may not be superfluous technical settings, as well as design settings.
And yet, today the supply on the market online research quite wide, which allows you to choose a service that meets all your needs and wishes.

Which service to choose

Choosing a survey service for a website is a matter of taste. Each service has approximately the same set of tools, but they are presented differently in the free plans. Experiment and create a survey in several services. This will make it easier to determine which one is more suitable.

Personally, I liked Survey Monkey and Typeform more in terms of the number of functions, and Google Forms in terms of design and ease of use.

And one more thing: it’s not enough to just collect opinions, you need to conduct a dialogue with clients.
Share survey results and try to take feedback into account to make your site as effective as possible.

Surely every teacher at least once in his life took part in a survey or questionnaire, or suggested that schoolchildren and their parents do so.

EXAMPLES OF SERVICES

Google Forms– one of the types of documents available on Google Doсs. You can create an unlimited number of surveys, questionnaires, tests and invite an unlimited number of respondents for free. To create surveys, the user must have a Google account.

Allows you to create a form with different elements or types of questions (seven types in total). Any question can be made mandatory for answering. You can easily change the order of the questions as you create the form. For each created form, you can choose a design for its design. The link to the form is generated automatically after its creation.

Invitation to participate in the survey:

By email to a list of recipients, including a link to the survey or the form itself
By posting a form (link to the form) on a website or blog

The big disadvantage is that the same respondent, working with a questionnaire or survey, can give answers an unlimited number of times and it is impossible to track this.

For each survey, a table of results is automatically created in Excel format V Google Docs. All received answers are immediately displayed in it. The table can be exported to various formats: pdf, xls, txt, but you cannot filter the results in the answers table. The user who created the survey or questionnaire has access to a survey summary with diagrams for each question at any time.

Service Questioner - designed for creating all kinds of surveys of any configuration. To create a survey, the user must register on the service.

The user-created survey can be divided into two parts:

Main– is divided into three sections:
