OpenSurvey
What it is
OpenSurvey is an open-source platform for creating surveys, collecting responses, and analyzing results. Its visual builder includes more than 23 question types, such as text, ratings, NPS, matrix, ranking, file upload, signature, and location. Logic tools support conditional skips, branching, nested loops, variables, answer piping, and debugging. Responses can be viewed through real-time analytics and exported as CSV, Excel (XLSX), or JSON. Surveys are mobile responsive and include progress indicators. The free Open Source plan costs nothing and provides unlimited responses, surveys, teams, and workspaces when hosted on your infrastructure. It uses AGPL-3.0 and lists no telemetry or tracking, with full API access. OpenSurvey Cloud starts at $29/mo. Cloud Teams costs $29 a month and includes managed hosting, automatic updates, email support, a 99.9% uptime SLA, and 10k responses per month. Cloud also lists global CDN distribution and AI-powered analytics with sentiment analysis and generated insights. The platform describes itself as GDPR compliant by design.
