Web Survey Hosting Services
Creative Research Systems offers two levels of web survey hosting: In one we do the work of taking take your questionnaire from either a Word document or a Survey System question file and turning it into a web page survey and can send out email invitations if you wish. We can provide these services whether or not you have The Survey System.
In the second level, you use your copy of The Survey System to create your web page survey, and we just provide the Web server and support services.
The Survey System's web page questionnaires offer many page appearance choices and sophisticated questionnaire logic features.
We offer SSL (HTTPS) for when you are surveying particularly sensitive subjects and want to assure your respondents that their responses cannot be intercepted between their PC and our server.
If you want more than web survey hosting services, our research professionals can consult on questionnaire design, analyze your data, and present you with a complete report.
Full Service Web Survey Hosting
If you only plan to carry out a single survey, do not own a copy of The Survey System or if you have more projects than you can handle at once, we can create a web survey from your questionnaire, upload it to our survey website, collect the answers and send you the survey results via e-mail. You can also view live online results. For students undertaking doctoral dissertations or similar-once off projects this is usually a better solution, as it avoids the learning curve associated with a new program and can be created and uploaded in as little as 24 hours.
Sample Online Questionnaires
Our sample online questionnaires are designed to illustrate some features of our software and our web survey hosting service. They are not intended as model survey questionnaires per se. Please try them all. They illustrate some different appearance choices and logic features.
- Employee Sample - a multi-page survey with a grid question and a rank-by-dragging-images question
- Lifestyle Sample - a one-page survey that includes section breaks and a colored grid
- Advertisement Testing Sample - a survey that asks viewers to watch a video, click on parts of a picture and to click on words in a paragraph
- Health Sample - a survey that includes branching and piping and randomizes question order
- Product Sample - a survey that illustrates the password feature and how it can bring in information you already have about people. Is also uses sliders to enter numbers, has a grid of drop-down choices and shows a progress bar and custom forward and back buttons
- Background Sample - a page from a survey by Evidens onderzoekdiensten that uses a background image to match their client's Web site
- Form Sample - a registration form. This example shows how The Survey System can insert a questionnaire into a site's template page, making a survey conform to a site's look
Sample Web Reports
We can set up live reports to let you check on the progress of your survey and see interim results. Here are some examples:
- Dashboard with Tables and Charts - Produce tables and charts on the same page
- Tables Only - Produce tables and charts separately. Includes a heat map
- Reports in a Page Template - This example shows reports inserted into a page that resembles our site. It also lets users select what information they wish to see.
