"Polldaddy Makes it Easy to Create Surveys and Polls"
What do you like best about Crowd Signal?

The thing that I like best has to be that Polldaddy offers a completely free plan. Usually, free plans with similar websites end after a certain amount of time or after the trial period expires. Polldaddy allows you to utilize the free version with no time limits. This has allowed me to test the service and gain reliable insights and data that will help me write a request to purchase a paid version of Polldaddy in the future.

I also like that Polldaddy not only allows you to create surveys but they allow you to create polls as well. Many similar websites don't have the option to create polls. This is something that has been important for us as we take polls on a daily basis.

Another feature that I like about Polldaddy is how survey participants can upload files to their survey. This is something participants weren't able to do previously when we distributed hard copies of surveys - it is also something that many competitors of Polldaddy don't offer - especially in the free versions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Crowd Signal?

While Polldaddy offers a ton of nice features that many of its competitors don't have - it is a simple platform that leaves a lot to be desired graphically. Many of Polldaddy's competitors offer survey templates and options that contain a lot of graphics, making the survey more enticing and aesthetically pleasing.

I have also found that when taking a Polldaddy survey or poll offline, the contents aren't displayed correctly or it doesn't work at all. There are circumstances when we need a survey to work in an offline situation and we haven't been able to rely on Polldaddy in these situations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Polldaddy is free but clunky...why I switched "
What do you like best about Crowd Signal?

I love that Polldaddy has a great free plan. For free to get polling features that most other platforms force you to pay for, such as the ability for survey takers to upload a file. I only recommend tools that make sense for my clients given their budget and the tool’s functionality so Polldaddy was a favorite for a long time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Crowd Signal?

Getting started in Polldaddy is a touch tricky if you’re not techie because you have to first create a Wordpress.com account. The builder platform itself is not too tough but others are simpler. It also feels pretty antiquated compared to more modern tools, even the free ones. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy to use, but comes up short"
What do you like best about Crowd Signal?

The user interface in creating the survey is nice and simple. It didn't take me very long to create my survey. The variety of different survey questions were helpful as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Crowd Signal?

The survey layout templates are not as friendly. When changing from online to offline using a tablet, the template would not transfer over. Meaning the app had it's own style that wasn't user friendly. Fonts were small, answer choices were hard to select. They give options to customize but then you have to change the code. For some of us novice users, I don't have the technical skills or the time to do that. I just upgraded to the Pro level to see, but I'm going to ask for my money back.

"Works well for our purposes"
What do you like best about Crowd Signal?

Not only is it easy to create surveys, but the ability to filter data using custom formulas is extremely useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Crowd Signal?

I've run into some bugs when creating complex data filters. More automated ways to analyze data would be beneficial too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Simple, Easy To Use Polls"
What do you like best about Crowd Signal?

Polldaddy is pretty basic in how it looks and works - but that's a good thing. It means it's simple and easy to use - but not an oversimplified and locked down poll like a lot of new polls that are popping up. Because of its flexibility, it can be customised to your heart's content and deployed in a variety of situations extremely quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Crowd Signal?

Some of the default poll styles are pretty basic and could be mistaken for having been designed in the 90's. You have to pay if you want to customise it yourself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Free version is OK; Pro version is better; iPad app is why I love it"
What do you like best about Crowd Signal?

I need a survey tool that my research team can access on their iPads. The free version is too limited (too few survey responses per month and too few questions per survey). The pro version is almost limitless for our purposes, and is $29 per month less our educational discount. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Crowd Signal?

Cost. We have a site license for Qualtrics, which has features on par with Polldaddy, but we don't have to pay an extra fee to use. There are so many competitors for survey software, so the one main benefit (iPad compatibility) is the one reason Polldaddy stands out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easier surveys with iOS app"
What do you like best about Crowd Signal?

I like that Polldaddy has a dedicated app. It allows me to deploy multiple survey takers into the field with tablets and collect results in real time. I also like the robust analytics and drag-and-drop editor. Advanced survey features (such as password protection) are nice, too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Crowd Signal?

It's not the cheapest survey tool out there. It's also not the most aesthetically appealing- it has the look of an open source program. It could look slicker and more professional. Minor quibbles, though. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy to use, easy to collect responses"

The surveys are easily customizable and you can add as many questions and responses as you need. They can be easily accessed and completed on various devices, including smartphones. Further, responses can reported in real time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Crowd Signal?

It can be pricey, depending on the package that you are looking to purchase for your company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Creation of impressive surveys with minimal effort"
What do you like best about Crowd Signal?

Do what I need it to do and not much more than that. Track statistics and responses easily. It allows you to add directly to the site with paid features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Crowd Signal?

I use it annually for my site and it still hasn't impressed me. The paid voting doesn't respond and doesn't change the size of the images in the mobile view. The options for prefabricated designs are simple, not visually appealing, and almost impossible to edit in the service module. It's been a few years and I don't see much has changed.

"Outdated but satisfactory Survey tool"
What do you like best about Crowd Signal?

Polldaddy has several options to customize surveys and polls. For different scenarios, one can repurpose survey templates in different ways by changing fonts, colors and other options. My favorite feature is the option to have the surveys and questionnaires in multiple languages, not just English. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Crowd Signal?

Polldaddy is really outdated. Free services such as Google Surveys, Survey monkey , and signup Genius really prove to be strong better alternatives.

Polldaddy needs to keep up with the times and provide cheaper service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
