Best SurveyPlanet alternatives
SurveyPlanet is a popular online survey tool. What sets it apart is its intuitive simplicity; it’s easy to use, even for those who have no experience building online surveys. The solution also gives organizations and individuals the ability to create surveys with an unlimited number of questions and to receive an unlimited number of answers.
However, while it’s a great option for simple surveys, SurveyPlanet may not work for organizations who have complex data-gathering needs. Take a look at these SurveyPlanet alternatives to determine if one of them may work better for you.
7 popular SurveyPlanet alternatives
1. Jotform
Whether you have simple survey creation needs or want something more complex, Jotform is a good choice. This online survey tool comes with over 1,000 templates for surveys, forms, quizzes, and polls, so you never have to start creating anything from scratch. Each template is ready to use, but you can also fully customize it, editing text or adding visual components like branding design elements.
Jotform offers advanced survey features like conditional logic, mobile responsiveness, and reporting and analysis tools. Not only that, Jotform is highly secure, so both surveyors and respondents can feel at ease knowing their data is safe.
Jotform is available in a free forever plan, and it also offers paid plans starting at $34 per month.
2. Crowdsignal (formerly Polldaddy)
Crowdsignal helps organizations create the kinds of incisive surveys, polls, and quizzes that enable them to find insights within the noise. “It’s a great way to gather feedback from customers or to create fun quiz content for your readers,” says Bashar Sunny, senior marketing associate at Vivipins, a manufacturer of custom lapel pins. “With Polldaddy [now Crowdsignal], you can create multiple choice questions, drop-down questions, matrix questions, Likert scale questions, and more. This gives you more flexibility in how you collect data from your audience.”
Crowdsignal is available in a free forever plan, and has paid plans start at $15 per month.
3. Microsoft Forms
Microsoft Forms makes for a good SurveyPlanet alternative because it’s also incredibly simple to use. However, it’s best for organizations that already use tools in the Microsoft suite of products, such as Microsoft Excel and Microsoft Word.
With this online survey tool, organizations can create simple surveys with a variety of question and answer formats. Microsoft Forms offers branching logic as well as some customization features. Users who want to analyze survey results can export the data into Microsoft Excel and create tables and reports. Microsoft Forms is free for personal use, and there are paid plans for business and educational use.
4. Google Forms
Google Forms is a highly intuitive platform and perfect for those who use the Google suite of products. Creating a survey, quiz, or form takes minutes using the platform’s simple drag-and-drop user interface. Google Forms enables the customization of colors, images, and fonts, so each survey can match an organization’s branding. For those analyzing the responses, Google Forms can expedite the garnering of insights by exporting the data to Google Sheets (Google’s spreadsheet app).
Google Forms has a free version for personal use and a paid plan for $12 per user per month as part of Google Workspace.
5. SurveyMonkey
SurveyMonkey is a pioneer and leader in the online survey space, with users answering over 20 million questions on the platform. “Its advanced features are easier to use [compared to SurveyPlanet], it has more customization options, and it’s a well-recognized brand in the industry,” says Stan Ivanov, CEO and founder of Stan’s Gigs, a curated portal for paid focus groups and online surveys. “One of the drawbacks of SurveyMonkey is that it can get expensive very fast for a larger number of users and respondents.”
SurveyMonkey has a free plan, plus paid plans starting at $25 per user per month.
6. QuestionPro
QuestionPro is a good option for organizations that want to create surveys, do market research, or otherwise learn more about their customers’ experiences. This platform has several product options that help organizations collect data of various types. It’s ideal for enterprise organizations that require collaborative tools as well as multilingual options.
QuestionPro offers a basic free plan as well, a paid option for $99 per month, and customized paid plans.
