Survey Questions

There are numerous factors to consider when creating a survey. The most important of which are the types of survey questions you will need. SurveyGizmo offers survey questions in all shapes and sizes including a basic check box question to the most advanced custom matrix question.

Basic survey questions

Basic survey question types are ideal for running quick and easy surveys. Analyzing the answers to these survey questions is made easy by creating simple summary reports or exporting your results to CSV or Excel.

Basic survey question types include:
