What differentiates Microsoft Forms from other similar products?

Microsoft Forms synchronizes with my Microsoft Excel worksheet, ensuring that all responses to my surveys are automatically updated on it. This removes the need for me to manually update data from my Survey responses to my Excel sheet , for advanced data analysis purposes.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Microsoft Forms is beginner friendly. I am of the belief that as long as a respondent is able to browse the internet, they should face no trouble navigating the interface of a survey Form created using Microsoft Forms. On my own end as a survey creator, my experience creating survey Forms with Microsoft Forms has been similar. I can customize themes easily using the theme selector. For beginner users, the help section on the platform usually has answers to assist in navigating most difficulty faced.

What do you dislike most about this product?

For data collection purposes, Microsoft Forms doesn't provide support for electronic signatures. Furthermore, integration with non-Microsoft software is limited and when possible, very cumbersome.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Although there are collaboration limitations and Microsoft Forms doesn't integrate well with third party software , it excels in simplicity and ease of use .

Pros

  • Reliable
  • Performance Enhancing
  • Enables Productivity
  • Security Protects

What differentiates Microsoft Forms from other similar products?

Fast and native integration with other Microsoft 365 applications such as Excel and Sharepoint. Being able to integrate Microsoft Forms with apps. on the Microsoft 365 suite helps with effectively analyzing survey data , which comes in the form of survey responses.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Form collaboration is adequate enough to effectively create and manage survey forms as a group . The most impressive part of Microsoft Forms though is the minimalistic user interface design, which simply makes survey respondents navigate surveys on Microsoft Forms smoothly.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Advanced data visualization is weak. Offline sharing options for surveys is limited.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

In this age of artificial intelligence, I will jolly well like to see Microsoft integrate the AI agent - Co pilot with Microsoft Forms , for an even better survey creation experience.

Pros

  • Reliable
  • Performance Enhancing
  • Enables Productivity

Likeliness to Recommend

8 /10

What differentiates Microsoft Forms from other similar products?

Microsoft Forms offers seamless Microsoft 365 integration, simplicity, and real-time data analysis, but lacks advanced customization and logic features.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

My favorite aspect of Microsoft Forms is its seamless integration with Microsoft 365, allowing easy collaboration and real-time data analysis.

What do you dislike most about this product?

What I dislike most about Microsoft Forms is its limited customization options, especially when it comes to advanced logic and branding.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

I would recommend Microsoft Forms to those already using Microsoft 365, as its seamless integration adds great value. However, if you need advanced customization, complex survey logic, or highly detailed analytics, consider exploring other platforms. For simple surveys and quick data collection, it’s a solid choice.

Pros

  • Effective Service
  • Client Friendly Policies
  • Altruistic
