Survd is designed to make setting up surveys a painless process. Many website owners use surveys to learn a great deal about their visitors while businesses can gain insight into the thoughts and opinions of customers. Although many companies can benefit from surveys, not all are equipped to create a professional online survey. Survd is geared towards users who want a simple way to build eye-catching surveys that yield effective results. The application gives the user many options without overwhelming them. Users can add yes and no questions, multiple choice and more. Survd allows the user to set up the survey however they like, with radio buttons, selection boxes and text options. Survd gives users the ability to create a professional survey that doesn’t require design and development experience.
Survd was developed by Echo Enduring Media, which was founded by Matt Ward. Ward is an illustrator, writer and designer who offers services to a variety of clients. With more than a decade worth of website design experience, Ward brings his knowledge of user friendly layouts and an appealing design to Survd. Today, Survd helps many business owners, organizations and professionals ask questions and get answers from the people who matter the most to them.
Many other web based applications allow users to create and manage surveys. What makes Survd stand out is the user friendly design. The look of Survd is very professional and the application manages to cater to the novice without sacrificing options. Users can build effective surveys that look the way they want them to without the skills of a professional designer.
The Survd website welcomes visitors with a very clean design featuring a stylish clip board and the clever Survd logo. The application looks good without adding distracting fluff. The survey creation area is relatively clean and users can work on a question by question basis. When one question is complete, it is minimized so the user can go on to the next without viewing the entire survey (which could get confusing).
A new user can click on the green “Buy It” button found on the Survd clipboard to begin registration. The user can select their desired package on the following page by adding it to their shopping cart. Clicking the green “My Cart” link at the top of the page allows the user to review their purchase before checking out. If the user is ready to finish, they can click the green “Check Out” button on the shopping card page. The checkout form requires a username, password, email address and first and last name.
Survd users are given three packages to choose from. The first is a 30 day support license which costs around $10. The user can purchase the 30 day license and upgrade at any time. The next option is a standard single license, which costs just under $35 per website. A developer three pack is available for around $75. This includes individual licenses for three websites. Each option gives the user unlimited hosted surveys, access to all design tools and the ability to generate in app reports. Standard licenses and the developer three pack include free customer support.
Survd is a valuable tool for small businesses and professionals who want to ask their clients questions. The application is very easy to use so no prior design or development experience is necessary. Survd also handles survey hosting so the user only has to build their survey and send it out.
