Accessibility
We pride ourselves on being an accessible survey software solution. Our surveys currently meet accessibility and usability standards, such as Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act, or the British Version, the DDA (Disability Discrimination Act). Many customers who have review and compared SurveyGizmo to other various survey solutions, have found us to be the most accessible survey tool on the market.
Is there any place to compare your accessibility to your competitors?
Yes, Ohio State University’s Web Accessibility Center conducted a study that compared the accessibility levels of a variety of survey tools, as did the Usability Professionals Organization.

Offering better accessibility in your surveys means a larger and more satisfied audience. Many of our competitors surveys rely solely on JavaScript and mouse interactions, making it impossible to navigate a survey and answers questions using only a keyboard. SurveyGizmo surveys are screen reader and keyboard navigable.

What does it mean to be accessible?
Being accessible means meeting a variety of requirements in the HTML that make your survey easier to use by people who may be attempting to access them under non-traditional circumstances. For instance:
- Anyone with reduced motor controls who has trouble clicking precisely
- A blind user reading and navigating with a screen reader
- A user with a broken hand trying to navigate solely with the keyboard
- Anyone with vision issues who desires larger type or higher contrast colors (think aging baby-boomers)
