Online Survey Services

Posted by: gimster on: January 2, 2008

I’m looking to use an online survey service to collect information on my students.

Wikipedia has an article on online questionnaires

Free services and some of their limitations

SurveyMonkey.com

In addition to the sites you mention, you could try a site called SurveyCapture (http://www.surveycapture.com).

You can create and test surveys for free.
Only pay when you publish/distribute the survey with up to 10,000 responses in the basic subscription package.

The subscription is under $10 a month and includes many of the features that are normally extra (security, skip logic etc.).

You can also get 10% off the subscription price if you register with promotion code 52525.
