Wrapping up
As you can see, there are many free online survey tools available that each offer a variety of features for both casual and professional uses.
If you want our advice, you’ll should choose a platform that offers the most storage for survey responses and no limit on the number of surveys you can create.
If you intend to upgrade to a paid plan at any point, it’s also worth exploring those plans well in advance. The last thing you want is for all your surveys and data to be trapped on a platform with a great free plans but a less than ideal subscription structure.
