Avis sur LimeSurvey

Alternatives envisagées :
The world needs to know the fantastic work the "Limesurvey team" is doing!
Commentaires : I was a very fan of "SurveyMonkey", thus I was looking for something similar, that could give to my organization the same experience BUT with self-host and free possibility. And Limesurvey delivered It to us. Since then, we automatized a lot of processes in our organization. The results were astonishing. We are saving a lot of time.
Avantages :
It's free, open-source and I can host in my own server (for free). It's even easier to build forms and questionaries than with survey monkey and google forms. The admin interface is easy to use and also the user interface. Very quick to build new forms, to see the answers, etc. Admins can use LDAP to login.
Inconvénients :
Impossible to say anything bad about this software.
Experience with LimeSurvey
Commentaires : My team uses LimeSurvey for collecting data on a national and international levels, and it has suited most of our needs so far. My overall experience has been largely positive and the support team has been fairly responsive, providing me with advice on a number of occasions. However, you have to have a professional license for that.
Avantages :
Depending on the scale and complexity of your surveys, LimeSurvey can be either fairly straightforward and easy to learn or would require more time to get an in-depth understanding of all its features, which require advanced programming skills related to web development (CSS, JavaScript, JSON). The platform is open-source and is regularly updated. Can be either used hosted by its developers or installed on your local server, which allows for more customization. It has several licenses to choose from if you prefer to use it hosted. It is based on Bootstrap 3 and has a sophisticated theme editor, which needs to be used for adjusting themes according to your wishes. It has a nice Stats feature that provides a quick analysis of collected data in real-time. Although, it is mostly helpful when you use default question types without extensive modifications with JavaScript. It is available in various languages, which is useful for international surveys.
Inconvénients :
Even though the platform is well maintained, there are still minor bugs/issues that come up once in a while, when you start using it on a regular basis. And because it's an open-source product, it is not as extensively supported as a fully commercial product would be in this regard. Thus, it often takes some time for bugs to be fixed. Also, it has its limitations when it comes to some complex question types, as it has its own set of default questions and other platforms might have a larger variety of questions to use, which might save time when creating a survey.
Very complex design
Commentaires : LimeSurvey at first sight seems very intuitive and helpful yet creating a survey is very troublesome. For next time I will stick to other platforms like Google.
Avantages :
The variety of types of questions and the extent to which one can customize surveys.
Inconvénients :
The complexity of the website itself. You have limesurvey mainwebsite then another one for your survey. The survey website is very unclear and requires quite some knowledge beforehand to be able to make questions. The layout should be simplified to make it more coherent and unambiguous as to what you do.

Hello Jordy, thank you for your valuable feedback. We actually have planned to tackle the usability issues in the upcoming release of LimeSurvey as we also feel that the onboarding is still way too hard for new users. Also, we know that the interface is not consistent in many places and fixing this will also be a focus of our effort in the immediate future. Thank you for confirming this, and I hope you might give use another try after that. Best regards Carsten Schmitz

Excellent open-source tool!
Commentaires : We piloted Limesurvey with one state agency probably about 6+ years ago, and quickly realized that this would be an excellent tool across the enterprise.
Avantages :
Intuitive user interface, most of our end-users can review the quickstart guide and be up and running with few questions to our survey administrators Unlimited questions per survey - that tool is a limitation on another survey tool we use. Excellent responsive templates with built-in bootstrap framework Survey output is web accessible (WCAG/Section 508) minus a few things here and there. There has definitely been proactive work done in this area. Easily customizable templates Excellent survey and user permission control
Inconvénients :
The admin interface still needs a lot of work to make it accessible/WCAG compliant. This is an area they should continue to work on When they release a completely new version, they need to make sure that online help/resources are ready for when that new version comes out.

Limesurveys integration into Vicidial brought my business to another level!!
Commentaires : Lead generation is what we are currently using it for, although im sure it can be used for a lot more in the future
Avantages :
I loved the fact that I was able to integrate this right into my vicidial platform and generate leads through it, absolutely amazing!!
Inconvénients :
The fact that if a survey was not completed, the next call we ran through the survey with picked up where the incomplete one didn't finish at and we had to press the previous button all the way back to the beginning and redo the surveys.
