limesurvey_logo


The LimeSurvey is an open source tool, a leader in building online surveys, which is developed in language PHP.
The platform enables the development of surveys, publication and subsequent data collection. Includes a wide range of question types, allows several flexible options and provides an immediate and short statistical analysis of the results drawn from the surveys.
The LimeSurvey also allows the creation of conditional paths (dynamic surveys), export the results tables for various applications such as Microsoft Excel, Word and SPSS and also allows the export structures of the surveys to. CSV and. XML.
Inquiries may be, or not, anonymous and are translated into several languages.
Flexible

With a choice of room types and templates, you can request a simple questionnaire to compose your own taste. The questionnaire must be public or by invitation only to be filled? The respondent fills in, or do you want data entry by research assistants to do? You make the choices!

course it is impossible to mention all the possibilities without becoming bogged down in an endless list that nobody reads. If you're wondering something is possible or not, you can use the online documentation page, or else contact us via the support section of this site.
Limitations
Very often it is possible to LimeSurvey and manual administration of the questionnaires sent to your respondents to arrange. If it is not possible for an entire cohort at one time to send a questionnaire is often no longer feasible to send manually. A special monitoring system can help arrange this well. gems Tracker is a kind of tracking system, designed to work with questionnaire systems in particular LimeSurvey. More information about G emsTracker on the special page.
Open source
The department has been making MGZ years to the satisfaction of the program using LimeSurvey. The program is open source, meaning that the source code, and changes that you yourself can do. Because we as a developer on the project are connected, we as programmers contribute our bit to continually improve the program by our adjustments to give back to the community.
