It helps to get to more people easily with structures information back. > > **Cons**: It should help and facilitate to add design to the surveys, that part is not easy or customizable for me. that would help to not over load the users with the same formats. > > the experience has been good, it helps to solve a common problem of getting surveys from the people we work aroud and get better answers from the participants. ----- ### "Microsoft form easy to showcase data" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *18 January 2025* | Media Production | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like that it can download the data into an Excel sheet to showcase all the numbers. Also, the varieties have a pie chart to show the results visually. From an admin and participant perspective it is a very well-rounded software that doesn't differ too much. The options of question types are not confusing and doesn't clear on to help you what goal you're trying to achieve. I appreciate the existing template that is being offered currently. It's a good range for people to begin with and it showcases that i > > **Cons**: From an admin side: I feel that it would be useful in a technical aspect, to put ideal background wallpaper format size for users to be aware that if it isn't this particular size, the image will be stretched. Because its usually come as a surprise for when users upload their own images. OR to integrat Microsoft designer into Forms. > > Ther interface is straightforward to use and adapt to. It's not something that needs to be learned and or trained on. ----- ### "Good foundation starter application for forms and surveys" — 3.0/5 > **Will** | *4 January 2026* | Fine Art | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Microsoft Forms works well enough to function as a data collection tool and survey use. It is mostly reliable, easy enough to use and they have added some usability features such as duplicating questions and sections to speed up the survey creation process. > > **Cons**: The UI of Microsoft Forms is not the best. It feels a bit dated, boring and clunk at times. There isn’t much joy in using it, and there is not much AI integration to make you think about your audience. Creating a survey is creative, but using Forms doesn’t feel that fun. > > I have used Forms for years in a range of applications. It can be useful for collection of opinions, preference or qualitative and quantitative data. I would recommend it as a starting point as most people know how to use it. However, it could be better designed with more spirit. ----- ### "Time saver\!

Saves me a lot of time and guarantees they have read and processed information which they’ve had to answer on. ----- ### "Microsoft forms" — 4.0/5 > **Kira** | *27 June 2025* | Restaurants | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It makes gathering information very easy to do.
