SurveyMonkey Review
SurveyMonkey – Create Surveys, Get Answers
Summary: While SurveyMonkey is the most well-known of the survey tools on the market, it’s not one of our favorites in the category.inflatable church The free version is extremely stripped back, and the paid version features are offered for a better price elsewhere (Typeform), or for the same price you could go for a more powerful program (SurveyGizmo). SurveyMonkey does have the best multiple language support, so if you are planning to offer surveys in a non-standard language is worth considering.

You might like SurveyMonkey if:
- You need multiple language support
- You want a program that integrates with your email marketing and customer relationship platforms
- You want to pay for certain responder demographics
- You don’t need the strongest analytics
You might prefer another if:
- You want better value for money
- You need to accept payments through your form/survey

SurveyMonkey is definitely good when it comes to a Targeted Research including Basic Reporting and Best in Class option to Pay for Selected Responses. SurveyMonkey has a good value for money and is go-to option for starting out with Forms and Surveys.
