Andrew Volkmann, Wells Fargo
Number of surveys created: 200-300
How I use SurveyMonkey:
"I'm in the Learning and Development field and use SurveyMonkey for training impact questionnaires and opinion surveys. SurveyMonkey provides a tool that is efficient in obtaining feedback from participants who are dispersed across the US. SurveyMonkey allows me to quickly implement surveys through e-mail and provides real-time reporting capability to monitor submission rates and summary data."
How SurveyMonkey saves us money:
"Previously, we used paper-based questionnaires or would have our web team develop the content. Both took a lot of time and resources. With SurveyMonkey, I can literally create a survey in 5 minutes and receive hundreds of submissions in the same day. With a reasonable monthly subscription price, we have created a very positive ROI with SurveyMonkey."
