Reviewed by: CNET Staff
This program helps you create and conduct paper, telephone, and Web surveys. Its interface is self-explanatory, but, if you get lost, the Orientation wizard explains the basics. It's easy to navigate the lists of respondents and surveys, which are arranged in a standard folder tree. The interface is practical, with large buttons, easy-to-find functions, and an innovative tooltip window, but it doesn't look all that slick. It supports Windows interface standards, such as drag and drop, letting you easily reorder questions in surveys and copy from one survey to another. SurveyGold Standard Edition is invaluable, especially for people who have never conducted surveys. Advanced options let you create nonlinear questionnaires, wherein the next questions respondents see are based on their previous answers. Perhaps the most useful feature is the ability to create Web forms. You can receive answers via e-mail or record them to download later. The program also considerably assists in conducting oral surveys. The results can be converted into various database formats and published as graphs, HTML, or Word documents. Anyone who needs to conduct surveys, especially academic and business users, can benefit from this excellent tool.Publisher's description

Version: SurveyGold 8.0
"Far better than Adobe LiveCycle Designer."
Pros: Simple and intuitive interface. Excellent integrated web survey system. Reasonable price. Built-in data analysis tools, and able to export data to Excel and other data analysis software.
Cons: Upgrades between versions (SurveyGold 7 to SurveyGold 8, for example) are not free, but they are reasonably priced.
Summary: It took me two hours in SurveyGold 8 to accomplish what it took me two weeks to accomplish in Adobe LiveCycle Designer. SurveyGold 8 is intuitive and easy to use, while remaining flexible. The web survey system is excellent.
