Google Forms is an app for creating forms and surveys, and is part of Google Apps for Work. The product focuses on ease of use; the interface is similar to a document editor, with drop down lists of options and drag and drop question re-ordering. Users can embed images and video into surveys. Users can also program the question flow with custom logic. Google sends users basic summaries of the survey results automatically, or users can export the raw survey results data and analyze it via…

Google Forms and SurveyMonkey are both entry level survey tools. They offer a mix of free functionality and paid capabilities, and are used across company sizes.
Google Forms is applicable to a broader range of uses, while SurveyMonkey is more specialized. Google Forms can be used for building registration forms, quizzes, and assessments in addition to surveys. In contrast, SurveyMonkey is tailored to more in-depth survey design, distribution, and analysis.
Features
Google Forms and SurveyMonkey both have strong features tailored for their use cases.
Google Forms’s free version is very accessible for casual or entry-level users at small volumes. For instance, it is well suited for educational or student-driven academic uses. For businesses, Forms is bundled with the rest of the G Suite. This packaging makes Forms an easy default tool for organizations that have adopted the Google environment. It also includes prebuilt templates for common use cases, which makes the tool more accessible for casual users.
In contrast, SurveyMonkey stands out for its more in-depth survey capabilities. In particular, users point to its excellent branding and personalization options. These features enable a more professional survey experience. It also offers a wide range of prebuilt question options and the ability to deeply customize questions and logic flows. The greater level of customization allows more intensive users to tailor each survey to their exact needs.
Limitations
While each product have certain strengths, Google Forms and SurveyMonkey also have some tradeoffs.
Google Form’s focus on accessibility across user backgrounds places a ceiling on the depth of functionality and complexity. In particular, reviewers have been limited by Google Forms’s question branching simplicity, and basic dynamic capabilities. The user interface and graphic design is also relatively basic and simplistic. The tool lacks the visual and branding customization found in more complex tools.
In contrast, SurveyMonkey provides a more intensive survey administration experience, which can be more difficult for less experienced users. For instance, the survey design process is a much more complex process, with less in-process guidance for unfamiliar designers. The UI is also not as user-friendly or intuitive as some other survey tools.
Pricing
Google Forms is free to use for personal use. It is also included in all Google Suite packages, which are priced at $6/user/month for the Basic plan, $12/user/month for additional cross-suite functionality and security features, and $25/user/month for the Enterpise package that includes additional management and security features.
SurveyMonkey has two pricing systems, one for personal plans and one for business plans. Personal plans are either $32/month or $99/month for additional functions like A/B testing, custom variables, and payments. The Business Plans system has three tiers. The Team Advantage, at $25/user/month, includes all of the Personal Plans features for 3+ users. Team Premier, at $79.95/user/month, includes additional analysis, white labelling, and logic functions. The Enterprise tier, which is priced by quote from the vendor, includes more customization, security features, and management capabilities.

Google Forms works really well when you need to quickly gather information and store it in a standardized format. It also works well if your organization is already using other Google products.
If you don't use other Google products, another service may be a better fit for you. Additionally, if you need your forms to be highly customized for marketing purposes, for example, you might have an easier time with other tools.
That being said, Google Forms is well supported and is highly flexible and would likely work well for many companies.

SurveyMonkey is best suited for you if you find that you are creating multiple survey regularly. It offers a variety of questions and options and is a well-rounded surveying tool. It is not best if you do not create surveys often, typically use the same survey, or looking for software to create quizzes or assessments. Also, if you are easily overwhelmed by too many options, this may not be the tool for you.
Live results: When a user completes the form the results are added instantly.
Easy to create: Google Forms has a simple interface that allows for a wide range of question types. Google will even try to guess the question type based on the question (but this can be overridden).
Answers export to Google Sheets: It is easy to have each response to your form add a row to a Google Sheet, allowing for further analysis or processing.
Ability to automatically collect email addresses within a domain: If you have a form that has been shared with users in your domain, you can set it to automatically collect the users' email addresses without them needing to type it in. Makes checking whether all students have completed the form easy.

Sometimes finding the output -- a Google Sheet with all responses-- is a little difficult. It's also sometimes confusing to figure out how to get back into the Google Form Survey itself.
As always, sharing among an institutional Google account and your personal Google account can be frustrating. You have to make a copy and can't share across the two different accounts very easily.

Recognizing that there are more limitations when it comes to a mobile interface vs. a desktop interface, I would love to see more profound levels of programming functionality on the mobile side.
It would be helpful to have better access to greater levels of third-party results analysis, particularly as it relates to open-ended questions and answers.
As an admin, it would be very cool if SurveyMonkey were able to use AI to match the survey we're building (questions, topics, target respondents, etc.) to existing results that might negate the need to ask certain questions in our surveys.

Considering the fact that it comes with a handy mobile application too (on iOS and Android), you also get flexibility thrown in the deal too.
Google Forms is a very intuitive and easy to use tool, it is not necessary to have a complex knowledge to create advanced forms, it is enough with the functions and aids that the tool offers for the creation of these, even children and students can do it, also the way to export the data is really simple, simply an incredible tool.

One of the things that comes as a benefit of the lack to create complex logic branching and truly custom design is that there isn't lot of room to bog down the software. GoogleForms has always loaded just as fast as my internet service and device would allow it. I'm not sure about front end integrations or integrations into the form itself, as I've never explored it, but on the backend, I've never had any issues with integrations channeling from GoogleForms from the GoogleForms's end of things.

We have also used FormAssembly, which is far more advanced with security, analytics, and functionality, but is also more expensive and takes a greater resource investment to train others to use. While FormAssembly can provide a lot more features, and is definitely the better choice for more complex surveys, forms, and applications, Google Forms is a very approachable and easy to use platform. We would recommend Google Forms for smaller businesses with simpler processes, and everyday use for any organization.

GoogleForms lacks the ability for complex logic branching and the ability to truly design it in a custom manner. It's pretty obvious when you land on a GoogleForm that it is in fact a GoogleForm. This rating solely reflects the lack of flexibility which in turn makes it something that wouldn't usually be scaled. That being said, if needing to scale a simple solution, GoogleForms would be up for the job.
