Life made easy with Google Surveys
Externally to collect data from business stakeholders - preferences, point of views or even their personal details for follow up communications.
Google surveys are easy to setup and and are integrated e2e with our whole Google collaboration suite.

- Self populate the email address with an option to update to the used

Google Surveys makes planning fun
- Multiple choice, short answers, checkbox, and more options.
- Collecting names, emails, or both.
- Making certain questions required and others as optional.
- I'd like to see a selection for automatically collecting names.
- More pre-formatted templates for selecting multiple preferred dates and time frames for get-togethers.
- Easier to be notified when someone has filled out your Google survey.
Google Surveys is great for quick answers to simple questions
- Measure the pulse of how our members are feeling (yes/no questions, multiple-choice questions).
- Learn how students are doing with specific projects (textual-based questions, essay-type answers).
- Run an election for board members (use of the "other" notation so that people can write in their own choices).
- It's a little cumbersome in its "form" in that you might have to wait a bit for something to come up for you to choose.
- Using Data Studio is great but if you don't have experience with it there's quite a learning curve.
- It's more digital than printable...
Average in a Strong Field

- Nothing wrong with the survey feature, but often only average in its functions compared to competitors.

Top notch tool for gathering the data you need
- Efficiently aggregates survey responses.
- Provides visually appealing results.

- The way survey questions are designed could be more robust.
- Data is not analyzed in real-time.
Google Survey Review
- Market Research.
- Valued Information.
- Right Targets.
- More data.
- More categories.
- Different industry focus.
Helps Us Understand
- Organization.
- User Friendliness.
- Simple.
- More customization.
- Reaches the audience well.
- I am able to design my own survey.

- The integration with the Google Classroom is phenomenal.
- I would like to see the analyzed data broken up in a different manner or different charts.

Go-To Survey App
- Compile all responses to one question/prompt
- Easy share settings to limit or be open access
- Separate submissions by each responder
- If using quiz format, you can pre-select the correct answer so students can receive automatic results
- More customization with the style (colors, images, etc.)
- Export options to automatically create graphics and other visual aids of responses
- Integration into Google Presentation where during a live presentation, viewers could answer a poll using the Google Survey platform
A scenario where it might be less appropriate is if it's for medical research, I don't think Google products are approved for HIPPA sensitive information or would be approved by an IRB.
Intuitive and Versatile
- The way the data comes out on a spreadsheet is very helpful, easy to see separate answers.
- Very intuitive, easy to use, and learn how to use.
- Versatile, can be used for many things, and has a variety of types of questions that you can add to your survey.
- While it is very intuitive, there are many ways you can fine-tune your survey (such as word limits, counts, etc) and these are not always obvious where those settings are.
- I would like to see some ways of changing the formatting (and maybe I just haven't explored that yet), ie: colors, set up on the screen.
- ease-of-use
- fast setup
- intuitive options
- advanced functionality
- better templates
- advanced design options
User Friendly
Yes, it is being used by our whole organization in so many ways. Google Surveys address some problems as in this pandemic happening, we do not use pen and paper anymore. We have Google Surveys on our phones. We just need to click the link that leads to a survey page. Google Surveys made people's lives easier and convenient.
- Can be used by everyone as creator and user.
- User friendly
- Convenient
- Can personalize the form itself.
- Background design, I think it would be better if we could personalize the background design.
