"Assessment of LimeSurvey functionality"
What do you like best about LimeSurvey?

One aspect I appreciate most is being able to preview every question before launch, ensuring clarity and flow. LimeSurvey also provides a wide variety of formats, adaptable to specific groups. Once surveys are complete, organizing and exporting results—whether to Csv, Spss, or other formats—is effortless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LimeSurvey?

The only note I’d make—more a remark than a flaw—is that its many options require a bit of initial learning time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Highly customizable platform at a very reasonable cost"
What do you like best about LimeSurvey?

It offers extensive customization opportunities, from editing the font of a specific question to setting up question branches and validation. This has allowed my organization to tailor surveys to not only be branded but also ensure we are not stymied by system limitations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LimeSurvey?

As an IT professional, it did not take me long to understand the tool but for everyday users, it can be quite a daunting tool because of the level of customization. I also do not like the way question branches have to be set up, it is unnecessarily complex especially compared to more popular commercial platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very complex and not very useful for students"
What do you like best about LimeSurvey?

Good variety of questions and options to customize. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LimeSurvey?

I didn't have a good experience with LimeSurvey. There are just so many unneccesary layers of information that one doesn't really need. First of all, there are 2 different website, one general and another one for the survey. Creating a survey would seem like a 1 2 3 task but in reality it requites extensive knowledge on how the program works. After working quite a lot with LimeSurvey for my studies I realized that they could easily streamline the whole program, yet there is a different page for everything. You can create a question and then go to another page for the sub-questions and another page for the answers of a subquestion and so on. Instead of making it all coherent on 1 or 2 pages there are so many layers of difficulty that one almost forgets where they are doing what, it's very easy to make mistakes. They also aren't very creative with the design of the questionnaires, almost no customization is possible so the questionnaires look all sort of the same/generic.

"Limesurvey review"
What do you like best about LimeSurvey?

I like how robust the tools are. There are a lot of options for creating a survey in Limesurvey. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LimeSurvey?

The tool is a little hard to use and the interface takes a while to learn how to use. This is not just plug and play when it comes to creating a survey. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Flexible but fiddly"
What do you like best about LimeSurvey?

Limesurvey has it's roots in the open source scene and this shows through a massive amount of options and flexibility. With LimeSurvey you can do basically any order of questions or flow, re-organise how it sends out, when, when does it close, who can answer. It's pretty crazy that it has quite so many options to make your survey completely customised. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LimeSurvey?

Related to the good stuff. Limesurvey is pretty damn complicated. It's easily an order of magnitude more complex than the likes of SurveyMonkey and this shows in how long it takes to make changes. Training staff in its use is really complicated as well in comparison to so much of todays software which explains itself nicely as you go along. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LimeSurvey?

There is nothing I do not like, it is very easy to use, practical, and has a fun templates that makes it easy to start. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
