Open Source Book cover Hi!

This book is available for purchase at Amazon (affiliate link), but we've rolled all the web site content into John's business site.

Open Source Survey tool

Submitted by John Locke on Tue, 03/28/2006 - 04:15

Recently we were looking for a service to conduct a survey. We checked out a bunch of different services, including Survey Monkey, and Zoomerang. Each had limitations: memberships that run into hundreds of dollars per year, free versions with limited number of questions or analysis tools, etc. For some reason, we didn't even think of looking for an open source project. Well, there is one, and it looks like it does everything the services provide: PHPSurveyor.org

Customer Feedback

Again, good job on the site. Unfortunately, most people won't be able to tell just how cool it really is. There is definitely a better look and feel on the outside, but where it really shines is under the hood. In today's world of crappy software vendors who provide crappy products and next to zero service at premium prices, it's refreshing to work with someone who is honest, thorough, reasonable and willing to do what it takes to meet the customer's needs. (you may quote me on that too:))
