Qualtrics Review
Qualtrics – Ask Questions. Get Answers. Act Fast
Summary: Used by half of the Fortune 500 and the top choice for research institutions, Qualtrics is premium survey software. Unfortunately, the $2500/year price tag doesn’t make it a cost effective option for businesses who only want to run a few surveys, or who don’t need its most powerful features. Qualtrics is still a great option if you expect high volumes and constant surveys and need to get the most information possible out of your data.

Qualtrics holds the 3rd place within the Forms & Survey category (Commended). It is a really powerful tool for having extensive academic & business surveys. What we see it’s great in Analytics and Advanced reporting. Pricing tag is relatively high though.
Qualtrics developers did not bother much about the integration options, yet they did Salesforce integration which is nice as well as API — pretty good too.
