Is there really a need for another online survey tool? Survey says: yep, if it’s more than just a Facebook app or lame “get paid to take…” offer.
Survs.com is a new survey-making tool and service that has recently come out of closed beta. The site offers survey building, hosting, and statistical delivery tools for building professional surveys with third-party verification. Nothing new there, really.
What changes is the survey tool itself and how it can build a survey using logical progression. So the flat, one dimensional surveys most often offered by other survey sites are replaced with more dynamic, structured surveys instead.
So if the survey asks for specific information on, say, car make and model, it can then take that and go to the next logical step asking for specific engine type, body style, etc. based on that earlier answer.
What Survs does is take the complex and informative surveys that large companies like retailers and auto insurance giants use (through expensive marketing tools) and make them possible for the little guy as well.
The other great strength that is immediately noticed when using this site is the great (simple) design of the site itself and its masterful use of AJAX to make surveys easy to create for instant, real-time updates and saves of the survey-build in progress. This alone makes it much quicker to build a survey (even a simple one) versus many other apps.
Survs also works on the back-end for the survey collection and extrapolation. Surveys can be sent through multiple channels (email, Web, etc.) and responses from each are tracked separately, but can be combined for the overall data charting. This ads the ability to track which channel you get the most and/or fastest responses from. So email might deliver faster response, but over time your website might generate more responses in total.
There is a free subscription which allows one user, up to 200 responses per survey, and unlimited survey building and sending. Paid accounts begin at $19/month and offer more functionality and responses.
Survs is a product of Enough Pepper Lda based in Lisbon, Portugal.
