Pros

Happy using surveymonkey, once I prepared office Christmas party and I used it to create a voting platform to present funny awards to the employees.
I love survey monkey I feel this is one of the best survey software out there. The setup process is very fast and seamless.
Customization on this platform is really fantastic and everything is so easily customizable, the user interface is slick and clean and very friendly looking.

Pros

The support team was easy to reach and super helpful. It's a rare thing to get thorough help, and not just a vague link to a help document.
Each time, I received friendly, helpful and fast customer service. I also liked how the employees of SurveyGizmo were understanding and spoke clearly when explaining how to build or make a change.
Overall, SurveyGizmo allows our teams to easily program and distribute simple surveys. It includes great functions, like the ability to have a dashboard.

Cons

The company's take on my dilemma was - "Pay for it" and you'll get the information you need. In my opinion they shouldn't bother having a free version of this software if it functions that poorly.
And completing would give you typically anywhere between 0.5-2. All surveys initially start with a few boring routine questions, which make you pissed off.
There should be more protection factors when approving registrations and preventing fraud.

Cons

After waiting over two weeks, I was advised that my request for a refund was denied. So, SurveyGizmo = limited service + poor business ethics + indifferent customer relations.
I'm now having to deal with this as a fraudulent payment on my c/ card. What a waste of time and energy for a product that was so average to begin with.
For example they accidentally shut down our accounts for 45 minutes in the middle of the work day which impacted all users.

Gets the job done, but Google forms is better

Reviewed 6 years ago
Pros

Solid, reliable, easy to pick up, integrates with other systems, and is compliant with many regulatory requirements.

Cons

The UI and feature set is pretty basic, and not differentiated from surveymonkey or google forms. wouldn't have used it if I didn't need to.

Great tool for detailed surveys

Reviewed 9 years ago

We really enjoyed working with Gizmo. We used Gizmo after evaluating about 20 survey tools. Main reason has been the detailed reporting opportunities which has already been included in the monthly offer (while at surveymonkey you need at least a full year contract for all the features). Just 3 Points in the ease of use has only been given because the User team is German and Gizmo has no multi language backend. Besides the ease of use is great.

Blows SurveyMonkey out of the water

Reviewed 9 years ago

We moved to SurveyGizmo when we found that SurveyMonkey was just too constraining and couldn't do some basic things (like question show/hide). So they won out on features alone. But they really cemented their place as a partner with their customer service. Very prompt and accurate, they were able to shepherd us through some strange things we witnessed (due to caching and upgrading tiers quickly)....

One of my favorite tools. Period.

Reviewed 9 years ago

4-5 years ago, we were looking for a more comprehensive, better tool than the ubiquitous SurveyMonkey. I found SurveyGizmo and, as a company, we've never looked back. It does all you could ever want for surveying, as do other tools. However, it's in quizzes, forms, customization and support where SurveyGizmo stands out. We are constantly building landing pages and microsites using SurveyGizmo embedded...

Pros

Flexibility Comprehensive solution Modern design Customizable Great support Embeddable Does quizzes, forms, surveys and more. Reliable Consistent

Cons

None that I can think of.
