What can SimplyCount do?
Take this survey + find out
Take this short survey and see the many features + question formats you can choose from when you create your survey with SimplyCount.
Let's begin with a feature you may not have even considered - "explanatory matter" (you are reading explanatory matter right now!). You may find it beneficial to include some explanatory matter in your survey, e.g., clear instructions before a series of questions (like the following).
In the next dozen or so questions, please select a response that best matches your opinion. Feel free to go back and change your answer if you like. (Note: allowing, or not allowing, your respondent to go back to a prior page is another design option feature of the survey engine used by SimplyCount).

Tap into survey questions that others in your industry may have used
Include a combination of unique questions you have written and questions others have written
Have your survey developed just for you, with unique questions, by someone outside your business
Use someone else's survey entirely
SimplyCount can go a step further with multiple choice. You can add a specifed "Other" - that's where, if "Other" is selected, the respondent can enter some text to specify what that "other" choice is. Here's the same above question with "Other" added.
