User Testimonials
	LimeSurvey	Zoho Survey
Likelihood to Recommend	For a cost-effective online survey solution, LimeSurvey is excellent. While it cannot compete with high-end, expensive software like Qualtrics, it does a great job. Incentivized Tom Shulak CEO (Chief Executive Officer) Read full review	Like all Zoho products, if you are using Zoho CRM than I would highly recommend Zoho Survey. The insights you can get out of staying only in one program (Zoho CRM) is so powerful for users. While it takes an admin or marketing person to configure the surveys in Zoho Survey, users within Zoho CRM never have to actually go to Zoho Survey to see responses as they are available right in front of them in the CRM. If you are looking for a stand alone survey app, Zoho Survey will meet your needs. It has all the functionality one could need to build a basic, intuitive survey. If you're looking for a survey to be very aesthetically pleasing with graphics or custom themes or the like, there may be better options. Incentivized Jon Porreca Project Administrator Read full review
Pros	Ease of use. Customizable. Incentivized Tom Shulak CEO (Chief Executive Officer) Read full review	Lets us get feedback from clients on how they felt the Engineer did. It shows us the knowledge needs if any for each engineer and shows and tells us what to improve on. Allows us to have an organized way to audit the first line of support calls and services and the volume of traffic we get month to month. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Cons	Limited email handling. Some customizations are difficult. Incentivized Tom Shulak CEO (Chief Executive Officer) Read full review	It can be a little "clunky" if you are not experienced in how Zoho Products work The pricing is a little harder to grasp than other products Customization is not as flexible as some other products out there Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Usability	No answers on this topic	Zoho Survey is really easy to use. We've used Doodle and Survey Monkey in the past, and Zoho Social is just as easy, if not easier to use. Incentivized John Hinson Administrative Director & Marketing Manager Read full review
Support Rating	No answers on this topic	Zoho's support is always quick to respond and troubleshoot any issues Incentivized John Hinson Administrative Director & Marketing Manager Read full review
Alternatives Considered	LimeSurvey was much cheaper than Qualtrics but certainly less powerful. From a survey standpoint, it has more capabilities than SurveyMonkey and Zoho. LimeSurvey has no reporting or analytic capabilities. Incentivized Tom Shulak CEO (Chief Executive Officer) Read full review	(Other survey apps were not listed to choose from, so this section is irrelevant). Compared to Doodle or Survey Monkey, Zoho Survey has everything you need in a survey app as part of your Zoho One suite. It can also integrate well with Zoho's other apps to get a more complete data picture on your contacts. Incentivized John Hinson Administrative Director & Marketing Manager Read full review
Return on Investment	LimeSurvey costs are extremely low. Some limitations have restricted our potential business. Incentivized Tom Shulak CEO (Chief Executive Officer) Read full review	It's all positive because we use it solely for NPS which, if taken seriously, can definitely assist in making your company successful!
