Create a questionnaire: which tool is suitable?

There are many ways to create a survey. We will show you different tools with which you can easily get the questionnaire.

1. Create a questionnaire using Word

If you have installed Microsoft Office Word, you can also create the questionnaire in a Word document:

• Open a new document under "New" so that a window opens in which various templates can be found.
• There, just select "Quiz and Test" under "Forms" and you will get a few great templates for your questionnaire.
• You can choose from multiple choice questions, right or wrong questions or open question types in which your participants can formulate short sentences.

2. Scientific surveys with SoSci Survey and Survey Monkey

• The free SoSci Survey is recommended for scientific purposes: numerous scales, question types and even the integration of multimedia content turn your questionnaire into a professional survey.
• Alternatively, you can also use the intuitive online tool Monkey Survey. You can use a total of 10 questions for up to 100 participants free of charge and send them by email and Facebook. For detailed questionnaires, you have to invest in the paid Plus, Gold or Platinum packages.

3. Online survey with Google Docs form

• Another free highlight is the Google Docs survey: in a form you can choose different question types and have the survey evaluated.
