Survey software question

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 3,079

We're looking at our options for survey creation/distribution, and how eventually we'd like that to integrate with CRM.  We're currently using SurveyGizmo and are fairly happy with it, though we just found out our price is going to increase quite a bit, so we're looking around.

I looked at some things that are more aligned with CRM, but not finding a lot of options we can use.  ClickDimensions, DotMailer, and PowerSurveyPlus do not have features we need (multi-language surveys being a big miss for both, among others).  AdxStudio and Voice of the Customer are available only for online, and we're on-prem.  SoGoSurveys is out of our price range when API access is added in.  I did also find one called PowerAddon, but I can't find if it has the features we need.  Waiting to hear back from an email.

So thus far the ones I've found that meet our needs all would require me to develop custom integration via API (which is not a dealbreaker).  First option is staying with SurveyGizmo.  Second is Snap Surveys (though we'd need to run our own web server with their software installed in order to use the API).  Third is QuestionPro, which actually even has their own Dynamics CRM integration pre-built, although it's hard to say right now how flexible that is and whether we could use it OOTB.

I'm not seeing mention of any of these on the forum at all, so thought I'd scout.  Has anyone used any of these, and/or integrated them with Dynamics?  Thoughts/experiences?  Or, any other ones you do use that can be used with on-prem (we do have IFD enabled), and that have advanced survey features like multi-language support, offline capability, automated email follow ups, and save/return?

Thanks!

    Have a look at iApply from DWS in Australia. It connects to CRM via a web service hook (which you write). It can run on-premise or in the cloud.

    Are you the same Peter Foley who is with DWS?  I don't have an issue with people pitching their solution, but I'd prefer anyone doing that be forthright about it.

    Also, it seems to be a forms application, rather than a survey one.  It might handle some of the basic features for surveying, but I don't see an indication that it would handle the more advanced features.  Thank you for bringing it to my attention, though.

    Did you check on this powerobject solution:

    www.powerobjects.com/.../powersurveyplus

    Not sure whether there is multi-language support

    That's one of the ones I mentioned in the OP; sadly, no, there isn't multi-language support (among other things).

    Hi Fulvio;

    Thank you for the response; however, since most of a month has gone by, we've made our decision for the upcoming year already.  For future reference, though, here are the survey features we're looking for:

    - Branching logic (hide/show questions, etc...)

    - Multi-language capability (within the same survey)

    - Offline surveys

    - Save/return

    - Lookups for data validation

    - Emailing surveys, with automated follow-ups/reminders

    I had a hard time determining whether or not your software does any of these by looking at your site....a more specific feature list would be very useful.  (Also, a list of question types you support would be good info to have up as well.)

    Thank you!
