		<description>Yes, LimeSurvey especially rocks - used it for years now. 
The LimeSurvey also offers hosting by LimeService http://www.limeservice.com if you don&#039;t want to fiddle with the installation. Really nice!</description>

		<description>I played with it for 5 minutes. a serious research shop would discount it almost immediately. 

fluff and nonsense may improve the user experience but it doesn&#039;t get you much further. overall, it looks like a great package, but it doesn&#039;t reach the standard, or even come close.

nevertheless, for quick internet surveys where you don&#039;t need complex logic, I&#039;m sure it will fit in well into an already crowded space.</description>

		<description>Robin: thanks for this update.  I&#039;ve never actually used these tools (yet), nor am I a primary research professional, but I can&#039;t help but wonder if these tools are limited by their scope. how do you know you have a representative sample?  if the respondent base in not pre-qualified, then you have to get demographic data from them in the survey -- wouldn&#039;t&#039; that make it a bit top heavy?  I&#039;m not saying these tools are not useful, just wondering what kinds of conclusions you can infer from the data you get.</description>

		<description>There is nothing wrong with a prettier, more usable tool, as long as the power is under the hood. You mentioned SurveyGizmo, and I&#039;ve seen some of version 2&#039;s look and I think it will take a very solid &#039;infrastructure&#039; as you put it and greatly improve the front-end experience in the survey builder. Mind you, I&#039;ve seen it because I am an employee of SurveyGizmo (full disclosure here), but thought I&#039;d wet some pallets with what is coming in the next few months!</description>

		<description>At $19 a month with unlimited responses for both Zoomerang and SurveyMonkey, and a very good competitor in SurveyGizmo I&#039;m not sure how these guys are going to compete on price.   With pricing of $20 to $120 monthly with no obvious features over the big guys, its going to be a hard sell. The usability thing only goes so far when stacked against companies that have been doing this for years on end with a very solid infrastructure.</description>

		<description>I&#039;ve been using this for a good deal of time and let me tell you right off the bat that this is a pleasure to use. 

Every little detail count... you can see that they&#039;ve given a good deal of thought to each and every bit of interaction. It just does what you ask and helps you find you way among the building of your surveys.

The way we can manage each channel for the surveys is definitely useful. We&#039;ve been using it to gather feedback for several stuff work and the fact that you can export *our* data (they say so on their blog) out of their app makes this the perfect tool for the excel-aholics out there. ;)</description>
