What differentiates Microsoft Forms from other similar products?

Unlike Google Forms, Typeform, or SurveyMonkey, Microsoft Forms is deeply integrated into Microsoft 365. Microsoft Forms offers enterprise-grade security with Data encryption & GDPR compliance.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Microsoft Forms is easier to use than Typeform or SurveyMonkey, which have more advanced but complex features. Microsoft Forms is free for Microsoft 365 users, whereas SurveyMonkey and Typeform require paid plans for advanced features.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Users must manually create all questions. No AI-powered recommendations. Microsoft Forms provides basic response summaries but lacks detailed analytics, filtering, and segmentation.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Microsoft Forms is a practical solution for users seeking a straightforward form-building tool, especially within organizations that utilize Microsoft 365. While it may not offer the advanced features found in some dedicated form builders, its seamless integration and user-friendly interface make it a valuable tool for basic survey and data collection tasks.

What differentiates Microsoft Forms from other similar products?

Has to be the default integration that exists between Microsoft Forms and Microsoft Excel. This integration between Excel and Microsoft Forms makes exporting data generated from surveys, a smooth ride for me. I will even say it has helped to gather more value from survey data.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

I love that it is versatile and thus I have been able to deploy it for different survey types and formats. The large quality of survey templates and themes that Microsoft Forms provides me, helps to customize my surveys to meet specific business and product goals.

What do you dislike most about this product?

The Likert measuring scale on Microsoft Forms only supports 1 to 7 measures. It will be greatly helpful to have it support a 1 to 10 rating system. This will help me get better feedbacks from survey respondents and automatically make my surveys shorter.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Microsoft Forms makes it simple to create surveys, quizzes, polls etc that easily picks the interest of the target survey respondents, because of the simplistic nature of its templates. It is very important that Microsoft Forms is easy to use
