SurveyMonkey vs Google Forms Comparison

SurveyMonkey has all the features and is also easy to use but I just seems less intuitive than Google forms.

Setting up forms just takes more time than in Google Forms. Things that are free in Google Forms are paid features in SurveyMonkey.

Super easy to make polls and surveys, and the distribution process is quick. I like the overall look of the surveys as well - clean and professional.

None! I would highly recommend using SurveyMonkey over Microsoft Forms/Google Forms.

There was a free version, people with the link could take the survey on their own devices

It costed money for the free version, it’s not as good as google forms

made data collecting very easy with polls and multiple choice

nothing but google forms is very compariable

Using this service gets feedback quickly with reliable links. It is super easy to set up and is user friendly. It provides insightful data. I like the benchmarks it gives.

I don’t see major cons, but there are some other services that are comparable like Google forms. I believe Google forms has more rules though.

Easy to figure out. Free. Lots of options.

Wasn’t as smooth to use as google forms.

surveymonkey is great for disseminating survey forms to others to gather survey results

i like google forms' design and format better

I loved how it looked and how easily I could set it up. Also, my team enjoyed it as well.

Sometimes we use google forms because a lot of our other stuff is on google.

SurveyMonkey is very easy to use to create surveys to gain answers and opinions from others in order to make decisions that people are happy with.

I do prefer Google Forms simply because it integrates better with Google Drive and the other Google programs I use.

great for creating survey forms that can be distributed to others

google forms is easier to learn how to use; it's simpler

If needing quick feedback and have the contacts to send it to, then survey monkey provides for an efficient way to do so. It is relatively easy to use and then compare the data.

Compared to other services such as [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] and google forms, there lacks a bit of functionality possibilities; such as the personalisation from landbot and the exporting in google forms.

Well SurveyMonkey is here to stay. Its super easy to use and easy to answer polls. I have never used the software to create polls but answering them is great.

There is nothing I dislike about SurveyMonkey, maybe the over use of green but I guess that can be changed.

SurveyMonkey's been around for years and there's a reason why; it's intuitive, well-designed, user-friendly, and super easy to use. I've used it many times in the past for one-time survey uses.

For many reason, I have recently switched from this software to Google Forms to collect surveys on the regular. With Google Forms, I can embed my survey directly to my website and collect answers as they come in, all merging seamlessly with my Google Sheets. For these features which I have yet to find in Survey Monkey, I prefer Google Forms

SurveyMonkey provides professional survey software with built in analytics. It's easy to configure the right way to ask a question.

Free alternatives such as Google forms exist, making the space highly competitive.

Quick and easy way to poll a group of respondents on a number of questions and gather their feedback in an organized format.

While SurveyMonkey used to be the only option, Google Forms has largely overtaken it, and is free. Doodle for scheduling and Google Forms for gathering data would be my recommendations in today's market.

SurveyMonkey is great. So easy to use and set up, super simple to integrate into your website or email campaigns. I mostly did the latter, but had coworkers who used it for the former and they reported the same!

I think Google Forms really takes care of a lot of the same things, but it doesn't integrate as well as SurveyMonkey - so not really a con, but Google Forms is extremely similar.

The graphical interface of the forms are sleek and compelling. Also, offers more options than Google forms.

Doesnt have any option to authenticate user's identity and ensure only single entries per user can be received.

I really like how easy it is to create polls and collect answers! Offers unlimited free surveys

you are limited to 10 questions per survey on the free tier.

Survey monkey is very easy to use, both to implement a survey and to take a survey. Would highly recommend.

Very similar features to google forms, which I think is used more frequently given it seamlessly incorporated into google drive.

I like SurveyMonkey because I can create many types of poles for my coworkers to use when deciding on work related events and the visualization is extremely helpful and intuitive

The only downside to SurveyMonkey is that it doesn't integrate as well as google forms does with my google account.

It is very versatile and easy to use. I have great flexibiliy in terms of how I want it customized.

Unlike google forms, it doens't seem to allow me to customize the backgrounds.

It is easy to use and affordable. Quick results that can be used for data.

It competes with google forms which more people use in my business world.

The integration the application has wtih Google sheets, office Reports, Trello, hubspot and google forms.

Not sure but some of their higher paid packages are really high in prices and not affordable, thousands of dollars...

Most companies I have worked for have used survey monkey to send all sorts of surveys out. The interface is easy to navigate regardless of someone’s tech skill level.

There really aren’t any cons that’s I’ve seen. There’s nothing glaringly negative about survey monkey.

this software makes it easy to send out survey forms to other people for polls

i like google forms' layout of how they present the results back to me

Google forms is the easiest free form app out there. From collecting applications, to simply polling friends about vacation dates, I use it for everything!

I know for folks who don’t have a gmail or love google as much as I do, they have told me it’s not as friendly to submit? All heresy, since I have gmail.

Super set explanatory. Machine learning is incorporated. Very easy to navigate and set up google forms.

Does not have ALL of the survey functionality of, say, SurveyMonkey.

Great and easy to use given that it's a free software

More limited than surveymonkey but does the job for simpler forms

Google Forms is an unbeatable free alternative to the Qualtrics and SurveyMonkeys of the world. Offers enough functionality to get the basic data that you need without breaking the bank.

Limited functionality when compared to SurveyMonkey and definitely when compared to Qualtrics.

Very easy to create, very easy to distribute

I have no cons about this software. I think it's even better than Surveymonkey.

Simple to set up. Easy to share. Easy to collect results on.

It's just okay. I think surveymonkey or qualtrics is better. You're really limited on options.

Google Forms is great, it's free, and it almost does everything the larger "poll taking" software can do.

Not as versatile for all applications or social media use - as say - SurveyMonkey - but great nonetheless!

- Great for basic surveys - Backside data compilation is clean any neatly displayed on Google Sheets - Can have multiple admins get results as they pile in

- Limited question types - Limited design options (ex. background color) - Does not prove as many analytics as SurveyMonkey

- super easy to use, can be used for survey, polls, registration - perfect for doing simple survey and polls, good for small business or classrooms - as made by Google, it does integrate with other Google products, we can export the results into Google Spreadsheets and then share with other Google users. Also, we can use Google notification for each new response.

- functionality is similar to the free version of SurveyMonkey but definitely not as good compare with the Paid version of SurveyMonkey. - survey answer has to be chosen from pre-formatted options. It is good for simply surveys but may have an issue for fancy one

My favorite thing about Google Forms is how easy it is to use. Given that I only need to create forms and surveys on an infrequent basis, it's easy to pick back up after a long time away from the tool.

Google Forms is lacking where some of the other form specialty tools like SurveyMonkey and TypeForm excel.

I enjoy how easy it is to use. Google Forms makes it extremely straightforward to set up and submit a survey

It seems to have the basics but not advanced features like a SurveyMonkey has to really customize the survey

I'm not that used to doing surveys, but using Google Forms it is fairly easy. It's intuitive to change the answer type, open new sections and so on.

I think my main concern about GForms is the sheets that it has as a result. It's not formatted and don't help analyse the data.
