Pros
It is easy to use and build surveys. There are robust tools to get the most out of surveys.
Cons
It can be difficult for our teams creating surveys to fully customise them to our brand. It is not as diverse as other platforms in what you can achieve with it, it’s there to collect survey responses but we want a form system which has a lot more functionality

Overall, SurveyMonkey has been a great tool for our company. We can get broad surveys on overall experience, as well as more tailored surveys. We send out surveys for our entire summer season, as well as for specific events.
Pros
I like that you can have multiple surveys active at once. This allows for much easier data analysis.
Cons
It was somewhat tricky learning the program after a former colleague set it up. But, once I clicked around for a little bit it was simple enough to figure out.

Overall, I would recommend SurveyMonkey for simplicity purposes and easily meeting your survey needs.
Pros
The best thing about survey monkey is how cut and dry it is and how easy it is to create a survey with their program. Everything from the construction of the survey to the analytics afterwards is seamless and user friendly.
Cons
We utilize the free plan, so the limited number of responses without doing the upgrade can be frustrating at times. Hard to see the full scope.

When used properly it's a great tool to have a quick feel on what the preferences are in a certain group of people. Closed or direct questions will be best and do not provide too many options to choose from because people will tend to go with neutral options.
Pros
It's a user-friendly tool that provides quick feedback. It shows statistics of responses to questions asked to a group of people in an organized manner. The output is in a form of easy-to-read visuals or charts. For example: how many people responded yes or no to a question. Charts will talk for themselves!
Cons
Free version has a limited amount of questions.

SurveyMonkey is an incredibly, packed with features that really empower you to create engaging, insightful surveys with ease. From simple questionnaires to complex research, it has the functionality to meet a wide variety of needs.
Pros
The interface is intuitive and welcoming, and with its array of templates, even new users can get started quickly and effectively. The built-in analytics add real value by providing clear, actionable insights that make data-driven decisions easier.
Cons
That said, the pricing structure can be a bit of a hurdle, especially for teams wanting to collaborate. While it’s great as a single-user tool, the cost does add up when you want to bring in more team members, which can make collaborative work challenging. For teams that thrive on shared access and feedback, this setup feels a bit limiting. If there were more flexible options that made team collaboration easier, it would be an even better fit for fostering connected and dynamic research projects.

Excellent option for smooth interface without high integration requirements
Reviewed on 23/12/2024
Pros
Excellent user interface for survey design and a variety of tools available, depending how advanced you are trying to do. Well known tool which helps prevent efforts from going to spam. The design options for participant interface are also really nice.
Cons
Although it does have integration options, it is not as smooth to set up as Google or Microsoft Forms if you are already in that ecosystem as an organization, so those tools can offer that advantage depending what types of forms you are trying to build. They are more limited than Survey Monkey though.

SurveyMonkey has played a vital role in helping us reach respondents in our organization. Creating and managing forms is easy to do and the data feeds into other platforms which makes our work process easy.
Pros
I like how easy it is to use SurveyMonkey "out of the box". A form author would have few barriers to customizing and deploying a well-designed and visually pleasing form in a short amount of time.
Cons
There is no glaring issue that I have experienced with SurveyMonkey.

Just a fantastic time for lower-level surveys, especially internal employee opinions on new software, or protocols. Very fast!
Pros
Very linear, and straight forward tool. It's very simple, it works fast, and it's one of the most affordable ways to gather data internal or external
Cons
Does not carry advanced tools, or deep data. You will get primarily general survey data and need an external tool to get granular or analyze results.

The SurveyMonkey software works really well. But I really think for the shorter and concise surveys, you don't really need all the extra data reports and graphs. The option can be there for the user. Just give me the basic information that I am looking for.
Pros
The ease of creating a survey with the tools that are provided.
Cons
The overwhelming amount of information being presented in graphs. data insights and trends. For example: I organized a simple four question survey for a summer event with my work. It was just to confirm individual attendance and diet restrictions. The data that was giving back was more data then what I wanted to review. And the individual responses were not made visible, instead it gave links for every response back. I don't have the time to go through each and every link to figure out the specific person that has the dietary restriction.

Cons

I love Survey Monkey I've been using it for over 7 months and I don't think I'll stop. It helps me analysis large amounts of data for my surveys and manage the countless amounts of feedback I receive. I'm able to create surveys and get data from them easily. I really enjoy it.
Pros
I love how easy it was to build surveys. As a Data Analyst every day I have to make many surveys and if can be a quite tedious task but Survey Monkey speads up the process and makes it more enjoyable. This is because I can add customizable questions.
Cons
What I didn't like was the pricing. Other alternatives that I know of are free e.g. Google Forms it felt a bit annoying to have to pay for features etc but it's worth the money. But having Google Forms as a free alternative is definitely tempting to switch to.

I had a frustrating experience with SurveyMonkey’s automatic renewal process. I was charged for an additional year of service without clear notice or consent. Despite not selecting auto-renewal, the charge went through, and customer support was unhelpful, refusing to issue a refund and citing their non-refundable policy.
Under Australian Consumer Law, businesses are required to provide clear communication and gain explicit consent before renewing subscriptions, which SurveyMonkey failed to do. Their policies feel unfair and misleading, and the customer service team did little to resolve the issue. I would recommend being cautious with their subscription plans.
Pros
very rraditional. there are lots of other alternatives.
Cons
