SurveyPlanet itself offers unlimited surveys and responses at no cost, which makes it a popular first tool. Many teams outgrow it when a project needs more than a shareable link and a summary chart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The right replacement depends on your next bottleneck. It might be cleaner exports, smarter question flow, or a full research platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this guide, we\u2019ll compare eight options, walk through a safe migration, and show how to test a tool before you commit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>SurveyPlanet pricing and limits: What pushes teams to switch<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>SurveyPlanet is a free online survey builder that gives every account unlimited surveys, questions, and responses, according to its<a href=\"https:\/\/surveyplanet.com\/pricing-features\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> pricing page<\/a>. The paid Pro plan costs<a href=\"https:\/\/checkthat.ai\/brands\/surveyplanet\/pricing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> $180 per year<\/a>. Most switches trace back to five limits:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Data export is paid.<\/strong><br>Downloading results as a CSV file, a spreadsheet-ready text format, is a Pro feature.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Logic needs Pro.<\/strong><br>Question branching, which shows or hides questions based on earlier answers, requires a paid plan.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Branding costs extra.<\/strong><br>Custom themes also sit on the paid plan, per SurveyPlanet&#8217;s feature overview.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Integrations are missing.<\/strong><br>A<a href=\"https:\/\/www.jotform.com\/blog\/surveyplanet-alternatives\/\"> 2026 Jotform review<\/a> found fewer than 10 field types and no native integrations.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Analysis stays basic.<\/strong><br>The free plan offers a summary and simple charts, as SurveyPlanet describes it.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>SurveyPlanet alternatives compared at a glance<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This survey software comparison shows how eight tools differ on free plans, entry pricing, and trade-offs.

form builder, or research platform: What is the difference?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A survey tool builds and analyzes questionnaires, a form builder collects structured inputs, and a research platform adds sampling and statistical methods. Six terms help sort the options:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Survey tool:<\/strong> Builds, sends, and analyzes questionnaires. SurveyPlanet, SurveyMonkey, and Typeform sit in this group.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Form builder:<\/strong> Collects structured inputs such as orders and registrations. Jotform and Google Forms started here.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Research platform:<\/strong> Adds sampling, quotas, and statistical methods. Platforms such as QuestionPro extend into this group.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Poll:<\/strong> A one-question survey built for a fast read on opinion.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Quota:<\/strong> A cap on responses from one group, such as 100 respondents aged 18 to 24, which keeps a sample balanced.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Skip logic:<\/strong> Also called branching, it sends respondents past questions that do not apply to them.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>These labels matter because a form builder can look like a survey tool in a demo. The gap shows up later, when you need cross-tabulation, which compares answers across groups, or quota control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The 8 best online survey tools to replace SurveyPlanet<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Each tool below fits a different kind of project. We left out enterprise platforms such as Alchemer and Qualtrics because they exceed what most SurveyPlanet users need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. QuestionPro: Best for research-grade surveys<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>QuestionPro&#8217;s<a href=\"https:\/\/www.questionpro.com\/survey-software\/\"> online survey software<\/a> covers design, distribution, and analysis in one platform. The Essentials plan is free forever, with unlimited questions and up to 200 responses per survey. Advanced plans cost<a href=\"https:\/\/www.questionpro.com\/pricing\/\"> $99 per user per month billed annually<\/a> and include 25,000 responses per year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.questionpro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/questionpro-new-1024x611.jpg\" alt=\"QuestionPro: Best SurveyPlanet Alternative for research-grade surveys\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Three things set it apart from SurveyPlanet. Logic goes beyond basic branching, with piping (inserting an earlier answer into a later question), randomization, and quota control. AI can draft a survey from a plain description and flag double-barreled questions, which ask two things at once. Integrations reach Salesforce, HubSpot, Slack, Microsoft Teams, and Tableau, and the platform lists GDPR, CCPA, ISO 27001, and HIPAA compliance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The trade-off is depth. Advanced features take time to learn, and paid plans cost more than entry-level builders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. SurveyMonkey: Large audiences and benchmarking<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>SurveyMonkey is a long-running survey tool built for feedback at scale. It also sells access to respondent panels, though<a href=\"https:\/\/www.featurebase.app\/blog\/surveymonkey-pricing\"> panel respondents cost extra<\/a>. Individual paid plans start at $39 per month billed annually. Team plans start at $30 per user per month with a three-user minimum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Pros:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Advanced logic, A\/B testing, and industry benchmarking, per<a href=\"https:\/\/www.jotform.com\/blog\/surveyplanet-alternatives\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> Jotform&#8217;s review<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A wide integration library, from Salesforce to Wolfram<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cons:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>The free plan limits each survey to 10 questions<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Extra responses cost<a href=\"https:\/\/www.surveymonkey.com\/pricing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> $0.15 each<\/a> beyond plan limits<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A steeper learning curve than most survey tools<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>For a full head-to-head, read<a href=\"https:\/\/www.questionpro.com\/blog\/questionpro-vs-surveymonkey\/\"> QuestionPro vs SurveyMonkey<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Typeform: One-question-at-a-time surveys<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Typeform shows one question per screen, which creates a conversational survey feel and suits short, design-led questionnaires. Plans are built around monthly response limits, since<a href=\"https:\/\/www.typeform.com\/pricing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> each plan includes a set number of responses per month<\/a>. Costs therefore climb with volume.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.questionpro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/typeform-surveySparrow-alternatives-1024x611.jpg\" alt=\"Typeform: One-question-at-a-time surveys\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Long questionnaires can feel slow in this format, so Typeform fits best when completion rates matter more than depth. To see how the two platforms differ on logic and analysis,<a href=\"https:\/\/www.questionpro.com\/typeform-alternative\/\"> compare Typeform with QuestionPro<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Jotform: Forms plus workflows<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.questionpro.com\/blog\/jotform-alternatives\/\">Jotform<\/a> is a form builder that also runs surveys, payments, and approvals. That breadth helps when survey responses feed a wider process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.questionpro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/image-5.jpeg\" alt=\"jotform: Forms plus workflows\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Free plan:<\/strong> The Starter plan includes standard features but adds Jotform branding, per its<a href=\"https:\/\/www.jotform.com\/surveys\/pricing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> pricing page<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Paid plans:<\/strong> These start at $19 per month.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Scale:<\/strong> The company lists 20,000+ form templates and 150+ integrations.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Compliance:<\/strong> Jotform states that it complies with GDPR and CCPA.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Trade-off:<\/strong> Limits apply by monthly submissions, so high-volume surveys need higher tiers.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Google Forms: Free, quick surveys<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As free survey software goes, Google Forms is the closest match to SurveyPlanet&#8217;s price. It is free with a Google account and, per<a href=\"https:\/\/techradar.com\/reviews\/google-forms\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> TechRadar&#8217;s review<\/a>, has no response limit as long as your storage holds the data. It suits internal polls, event RSVPs, and classroom quizzes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The same review notes limited advanced features and third-party integrations. If your surveys need more analysis, see<a href=\"https:\/\/www.questionpro.com\/google-forms-vs-questionpro\/\"> Google Forms vs QuestionPro<\/a> for a feature-by-feature view.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. Microsoft Forms: For Microsoft 365 teams<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Microsoft Forms comes with Microsoft 365 and connects natively to Teams and Excel, according to<a href=\"https:\/\/www.jotform.com\/blog\/surveyplanet-alternatives\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> Jotform&#8217;s 2026 review<\/a>. That review calls it the closest match to SurveyPlanet in features and experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Pros:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Included with existing Microsoft 365 accounts<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Responses sync to Excel for analysis<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cons:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Personal Microsoft accounts<a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/en-us\/answers\/questions\/5766498\/microsoft-forms-response-limit\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> cap each form at 200 responses<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Branching and analysis stay basic<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7. SurveySparrow: For conversational surveys<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.questionpro.com\/blog\/surveysparrow-alternatives\/\">SurveySparrow<\/a> builds surveys that feel like a chat. The free plan allows 75 responses per quarter, and the Basic plan starts at<a href=\"https:\/\/hackceleration.com\/labs\/surveysparrow-pricing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> $19 per month<\/a> for one user.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.questionpro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/image-4.jpeg\" alt=\"SurveySparrow: For conversational surveys\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Costs grow with teams. Extra users cost $49 per month, and the customer experience, NPS, and 360-degree suites cost extra as separate products, according to the same pricing review. That makes SurveySparrow a fit for solo users or small teams with steady volume.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">8. Zoho Survey: For teams already on Zoho<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Zoho Survey belongs to the Zoho suite, so it works best for teams already using Zoho CRM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.questionpro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/zoho-survey-1024x611.jpg\" alt=\"Zoho Survey: For teams already on Zoho\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Free plan:<\/strong> Each survey caps at 10 questions and 100 responses, per<a href=\"https:\/\/www.capterra.com\/p\/131426\/Zoho-Survey\/pricing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> Capterra&#8217;s pricing listing<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Paid plans:<\/strong> The Plus plan costs about $35 per month on monthly billing, per the same listing.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Integrations:<\/strong> Zoho CRM, Slack, Google Sheets, Mailchimp, and Shopify appear on its<a href=\"https:\/\/www.capterra.com\/p\/131426\/Zoho-Survey\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> Capterra profile<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Trade-off:<\/strong> Some reviewers on<a href=\"https:\/\/www.getapp.com\/customer-management-software\/a\/zoho-survey\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> GetApp<\/a> find the free version limited in customization.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Free survey software or paid platform: Which fits you?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Match the tool to the job, not to the longest feature list. Free survey software covers basic polling, while paid platforms earn their cost when you need exports, logic, or compliance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"overflow-x:auto;margin:1.5rem 0;\">\n  <table

situations. They are examples, not client stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>A graduate student runs a thesis survey.<\/strong> She collects 400 responses and needs a CSV file for statistics software. SurveyPlanet gathers the data free but locks the export behind Pro. Google Forms sends responses to Google Sheets at no cost, so it solves the problem without a new bill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>A nonprofit surveys its donors.<\/strong> Lapsed donors should skip questions about upcoming events, and the survey should carry the organization&#8217;s logo. Both needs point to a tool with branching and branding on its plan, such as Typeform, Jotform, or QuestionPro.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>A US retailer tracks customer satisfaction.<\/strong> Scores must flow into Salesforce or HubSpot, and the team needs a clear privacy posture for California shoppers. A platform with native integrations and stated CCPA compliance removes the manual copying and the guesswork.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How to switch survey tools without losing your data<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Switching takes about a day for a small account if you follow a fixed order. This step-by-step guide protects your history first and your live surveys second.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Export everything first.<\/strong><br>Buy one Pro billing period if needed, then download all responses as CSV files.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Audit your surveys.<\/strong><br>List each live survey, its question count, languages, and any branching.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Rebuild the logic.<\/strong><br>Recreate skip paths before styling anything. Advanced options such as<a href=\"https:\/\/www.questionpro.com\/survey-software\/survey-logic.html\"> compound and delayed branching<\/a> help when one answer should affect a question much later.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Recreate your branding.<\/strong><br>Add your logo, colors, and thank-you page.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Test on real devices.<\/strong><br>Ask five colleagues to complete the survey on phones and laptops, then check that the export opens cleanly.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Swap the links.<\/strong><br>Update QR codes, email templates, and embedded surveys.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Retire the old survey.<\/strong><br>Keep it open briefly for late responders, then close it and archive the CSV files.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How to evaluate a survey tool before you commit<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A 30-minute pilot tells you more than a feature list. Response rate, the share of invited people who complete a survey, is the best single outcome to track. Divide completed surveys by invitations sent, and compare the result with the benchmarks in our guide to<a href=\"https:\/\/www.questionpro.com\/blog\/survey-response-rates\/\"> survey response rate<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"overflow-x:auto;margin:1.5rem 0;\">\n  <table style=\"border-collapse:collapse;width:100%;table-layout:auto;\">\n    <thead>\n      <tr>\n        <th style=\"background:#1a2b5e;color:#fff;padding:10px 14px;border:1px solid #C5CFE8;font-size:18px;text-align:left;white-space:nowrap;\">Test<\/th>\n        <th style=\"background:#162450;color:#fff;padding:10px 14px;border:1px solid #C5CFE8;font-size:18px;text-align:left;\">What to do<\/th>\n        <th style=\"background:#1a2b5e;color:#fff;padding:10px 14px;border:1px solid #C5CFE8;font-size:18px;text-align:left;\">What good looks like<\/th>\n      <\/tr>\n    <\/thead>\n    <tbody>\n      <tr>\n        <td style=\"background:#ffffff;padding:9px 14px;border:1px solid #E5E7EB;font-size:16px;vertical-align:top;font-weight:600;word-wrap:break-word;white-space:nowrap;\">Export<\/td>\n        <td style=\"background:#f0f4ff;padding:9px 14px;border:1px solid #E5E7EB;font-size:16px;vertical-align:top;word-wrap:break-word;\">Download 20 sample responses as CSV and Excel<\/td>\n        <td style=\"background:#ffffff;padding:9px 14px;border:1px solid #E5E7EB;font-size:16px;vertical-align:top;word-wrap:break-word;\">Clean columns with no manual fixes<\/td>\n      <\/tr>\n      <tr>\n        <td style=\"background:#ffffff;padding:9px 14px;border:1px solid #E5E7EB;font-size:16px;vertical-align:top;font-weight:600;word-wrap:break-word;white-space:nowrap;\">Logic<\/td>\n        <td style=\"background:#f0f4ff;padding:9px 14px;border:1px solid #E5E7EB;font-size:16px;vertical-align:top;word-wrap:break-word;\">Build a three-path survey with piping<\/td>\n        <td style=\"background:#ffffff;padding:9px 14px;border:1px solid #E5E7EB;font-size:16px;vertical-align:top;word-wrap:break-word;\">Every path works on mobile<\/td>\n      <\/tr>\n      <tr>\n        <td style=\"background:#ffffff;padding:9px 14px;border:1px solid #E5E7EB;font-size:16px;vertical-align:top;font-weight:600;word-wrap:break-word;white-space:nowrap;\">Completion<\/td>\n        <td style=\"background:#f0f4ff;padding:9px 14px;border:1px solid #E5E7EB;font-size:16px;vertical-align:top;word-wrap:break-word;\">Send to 10 people and track starts versus finishes<\/td>\n        <td style=\"background:#ffffff;padding:9px 14px;border:1px solid #E5E7EB;font-size:16px;vertical-align:top;word-wrap:break-word;\">Few drop-offs at any one question<\/td>\n      <\/tr>\n      <tr>\n        <td style=\"background:#ffffff;padding:9px 14px;border:1px solid #E5E7EB;font-size:16px;vertical-align:top;font-weight:600;word-wrap:break-word;white-space:nowrap;\">Cost<\/td>\n        <td style=\"background:#f0f4ff;padding:9px 14px;border:1px solid #E5E7EB;font-size:16px;vertical-align:top;word-wrap:break-word;\">Model 12 months of responses, seats, and overages<\/td>\n        <td style=\"background:#ffffff;padding:9px 14px;border:1px solid #E5E7EB;font-size:16px;vertical-align:top;word-wrap:break-word;\">A total you can defend to finance<\/td>\n      <\/tr>\n      <tr>\n        <td style=\"background:#ffffff;padding:9px 14px;border:1px solid #E5E7EB;font-size:16px;vertical-align:top;font-weight:600;word-wrap:break-word;white-space:nowrap;\">Privacy<\/td>\n        <td style=\"background:#f0f4ff;padding:9px 14px;border:1px solid #E5E7EB;font-size:16px;vertical-align:top;word-wrap:break-word;\">Read the vendor&#8217;s compliance documentation<\/td>\n        <td style=\"background:#ffffff;padding:9px 14px;border:1px solid #E5E7EB;font-size:16px;vertical-align:top;word-wrap:break-word;\">Clear statements on CCPA and GDPR<\/td>\n      <\/tr>\n    <\/tbody>\n  <\/table>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Privacy deserves its own check for US teams.

A research platform also helps you decide whom to ask and how to read the answers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you lack an audience, a panel supplies respondents.<a href=\"https:\/\/www.questionpro.com\/audience\/\"> QuestionPro Audience<\/a> connects you with survey respondents, and SurveyMonkey offers a similar panel service. Confirm pricing first, because panel respondents often cost extra on top of the software plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Research-grade plans also add advanced methods. Conjoint analysis tests which product features people value most. MaxDiff asks people to pick the best and worst option from a set. QuestionPro&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.questionpro.com\/research-suite\/\">Market Research Software<\/a> includes both, along with A\/B testing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Common mistakes when switching survey tools<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Most failed switches come from a few predictable errors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Pricing by headline:<\/strong> Seats, response caps, and overages change the real bill. SurveyMonkey, for example, charges<a href=\"https:\/\/www.surveymonkey.com\/pricing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> $0.15 for each extra response<\/a> beyond plan limits.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Skipping the export test:<\/strong> A tool that exports messy data creates hours of cleanup for every study.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Rebuilding without testing logic:<\/strong> A broken skip path sends respondents to the wrong questions and quietly corrupts your data.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Ignoring privacy:<\/strong> Collecting personal details without a clear notice can create legal exposure, especially for California residents.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Choosing on looks alone:<\/strong> A beautiful survey that cannot export, filter, or integrate becomes a dead end within a quarter.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Pick the tool your next survey actually needs<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>SurveyPlanet does one job well: it lets anyone launch a survey for free. The best alternative removes your current bottleneck without adding features you will never open.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Write down the one thing that stopped your last project, whether that was export, logic, or reporting. Then test two tools against exactly that problem. A short pilot will tell you more than any comparison table, including this one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\t<div class=\"banner-section wf-section\" lang=\"\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"right-column-container\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"bannerbg white\">\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"h1-2\">Create memorable experiences based on real-time data, insights and advanced analysis.<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"#userliteForm\" data-toggle=\"modal\" class=\"button w-button\">Request Demo<\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"userlite-modal modal fade\" id=\"userliteForm\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"dialog\" style=\"display: none;\">\n\t\t<div class=\"modal-dialog\" role=\"document\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-content\" role=\"document\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-header\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"close\" data-dismiss=\"modal\" aria-label=\"Close\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<i class=\"material-icons\">close<\/i>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"contact-us-form-wrapper contact-box\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"userlite-form-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.questionpro.com\/userlite-form-blog-en.html?product=Surveys&amp;referralurl=https:\/\/www.questionpro.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1012478&amp;lang=en&amp;cat=research-tools-and-apps|survey-software\" style=\"display: block;\" ><\/iframe>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"demo-form-wrapper success-message-div\" style=\"display:none\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"success-message-para\"><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"schema-faq wp-block-yoast-faq-block\"><div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1790580745767\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\"><strong>What is the best free alternative to SurveyPlanet?<\/strong><\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Google Forms is the closest free match because it has no response cap beyond your<a href=\"https:\/\/techradar.com\/reviews\/google-forms\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> Google storage<\/a>.
