Read this page as one judge. Each weighs the same scores by what they care about.

The Data Protection Officer

Weighted verdict

Signs off every form tool a department wants to use and has found health data in a feedback form before. Wants a data processing agreement and a subprocessor list on the vendor's own pages, consent fields and an anonymous mode that drops IP addresses, retention periods that delete on their own, EU hosting the customer can choose, and roles that keep responses away from people who do not need them.

Same scores as the panel view — this lens weights them the way this judge cares.

Form & survey building

How this is scored

What can be built without code: question and field types, conditional logic and branching, piping and hidden fields, calculations, multi-page forms and progress, templates, design and branding, multiple languages, and accessible output for respondents.

0 — Not a form or survey builder; questions cannot be authored in the product.

3 — A builder with the common question types and a few templates; logic, branding or languages are basic or not described.

5 — A drag-and-drop builder with a wide range of question types, conditional logic that shows, hides or skips questions, multi-page forms, a template library, and the customer's logo, colours and fonts.

8 — Advanced logic with piping, hidden fields, calculations and scoring, randomisation, surveys translated into several languages from one master, reusable question libraries, custom CSS or themes, and accessible forms with a named standard (WCAG 2.1 AA or BITV) stated.

10 — Best-in-class authoring: complex research designs (loops, quotas in logic, conjoint or MaxDiff), versioned forms with change history, a published accessibility conformance report, and every element of a form available through the API.

Report an error

The Data Protection Officer

The no-code editor covers jumps and branching, different question paths, conditional visibility, piping and placeholders, multilingual questionnaires with a translation tool, media inside questions, own CI colours, typography and logos, further CSS adjustments, templates, and accessibility oriented to WCAG/BITV, which names a standard. We found no public information on hidden fields, calculations, scoring or randomisation, which is what keeps this just short of the advanced-logic level. 2 7 10 11

Distribution, response collection & workflows

How this is scored

How forms reach people and what happens to an answer: share links, embedding, QR codes, email invitations with reminders, contact lists and panels, offline or kiosk collection, file uploads, payments and signatures inside the form, notifications, approval or assignment of submissions, and automations that pass a response on to other tools.

0 — No way to collect responses from other people; the product only analyses data collected elsewhere.

3 — A share link and an embed code, with responses visible in the product; invitations, notifications and onward workflows are basic or not described.

5 — Links, embedding and QR codes, email notifications on submission, file uploads, a few native integrations (spreadsheets, CRM, chat) plus a connector service such as Zapier or Make, and either email invitations with reminders or payments inside the form.

8 — Invitations to managed contact lists with reminders and unique links, response quotas and closing rules, offline or kiosk collection, submissions routed for approval or assignment, conditional notifications, documented webhooks and a REST API to read and write responses.

10 — Collection at research and process scale: panel or sample sourcing, multi-channel distribution (email, SMS, web, app intercept) with deduplication, workflows with branching and audit trail, and every response event exposed to the customer's systems in real time with a stated delivery guarantee.

Report an error

The Data Protection Officer

Respondents are reached by email, QR code, intranet, social media, print and point of sale, invitations go out through an email editor and an address book with a PDF invitation letter template, surveys embed via iFrame, and an API is documented. We found no public information on invitations with reminders, file uploads, notifications on submission, payments collected inside a form, or webhooks, so collection here stops short of running itself. 1 2 9 11 13

Survey analysis & reporting

How this is scored

What the product does with the answers: live results and charts, filters and segments, cross-tabulation, NPS, CSAT and other standard scores, open-text and sentiment analysis, shareable dashboards and reports, and exports to the formats analysts use (CSV, Excel, SPSS, R).

0 — No view of results inside the product; submissions can only be forwarded or downloaded one at a time.

3 — A table of responses with simple charts per question and a CSV export; filters, comparisons and report sharing are basic or not described.

5 — Charts per question, filters and segments, at least one comparison or cross-tab view, standard scores such as NPS, shareable or exportable reports (PDF, presentation), and exports to CSV and Excel.

8 — Cross-tabulation with significance testing, weighting, open-text coding or sentiment analysis, trend reports across survey waves, dashboards for different audiences with permissions, and SPSS or R exports with labels.

10 — A research-grade analysis environment: statistical models beyond cross-tabs (driver analysis, regression), benchmarks, text analytics with themes the customer can edit, and every analysis reproducible from documented exports or an analytics API.

Report an error

The Data Protection Officer

Results are evaluated automatically with charts and tables per question — up to ten chart types per question — filterable by completion status, participant attributes and answer behaviour, with cross-tabulation, group comparison, dropout analysis, NPS, CSAT and Customer Effort Score, raw data as CSV, SPSS, TXT and MatLab and summaries as Excel, Word, PowerPoint or HTML. We found no public information on significance testing, weighting, open-text or sentiment analysis, or dashboards with their own permissions, so the analysis is solidly mid-level rather than research-grade. 1 13 14 2

Consent, GDPR & respondent data

How this is scored

What the product gives the customer to collect personal data lawfully: consent and privacy-notice fields, anonymous surveys that really drop IP addresses and identifiers, retention periods and automatic deletion, handling of access and erasure requests, encryption of responses, a data processing agreement, and controls over cookies and tracking on the form itself.

0 — The product collects no personal data from respondents, so there is nothing to protect; or it is a different kind of product.

3 — A privacy policy and a statement of GDPR compliance, with a checkbox field usable for consent; anonymity, retention and deletion are not described.

5 — A data processing agreement offered to customers, a consent or privacy-notice field, an anonymous mode that does not store IP addresses, responses deletable by the customer, and encryption in transit and at rest stated.

8 — Retention periods with automatic deletion, tools for access and erasure requests per respondent, field-level encryption or masking of sensitive answers, forms that set no tracking cookies by default, a published list of technical and organisational measures, and a named data protection officer.

10 — Data protection by design and evidenced: end-to-end or customer-key encryption of responses, documented data minimisation defaults, a DPA with audit rights and subprocessor change notice, records of consent kept with each response, and an independent audit of the privacy controls published.

Report an error

The Data Protection Officer

This is what I look for first: the processing agreement comes into force automatically at registration and can be previewed and downloaded beforehand, surveys can run fully anonymous without IP addresses, cookies or metadata, consent is modelled directly in the questionnaire with a mandatory checkbox and branching, the privacy notice links from the footer, contact data can be processed separately from the answers, encryption covers transport and rest, and a data protection officer is appointed with TOM and DPIA support available. We found no public information on retention periods that delete survey responses automatically or on tools for access and erasure requests per respondent, and an individually negotiated agreement is offered only in exceptional cases from 6000 € — a real obstacle when a department's lawyers want their own terms. 1 2 4 15 16

Hosting choice, teams & portability

How this is scored

What the customer may choose about where and how the product runs and who uses it: a selectable data region or EU-only hosting, self-hosting or an on-premise edition, team workspaces with roles and permissions, single sign-on, an audit log, custom domains and white-labelling, and a complete export of forms and responses that another tool can import.

0 — A single-user tool with no export of forms or responses.

3 — Shared access for a team and a response export; data location, roles and single sign-on are not described.

5 — Hosting location stated with an EU option, team workspaces with at least two roles, single sign-on on a higher plan, a custom domain or removed vendor branding, and an export of all responses.

8 — EU-only hosting selectable per account or a self-hosted edition, granular roles per form or folder, SSO with SAML and user provisioning, an audit log, white-labelling, and forms and responses exportable in a documented format with an API.

10 — Full control over operation: an open-source or on-premise edition with feature parity, customer-chosen region per workspace, administrative APIs, a documented migration path in and out, and an uptime commitment with a published status history.

Report an error

The Data Protection Officer

All data stays in Germany on the vendor's own servers with a stated refusal of US cloud services, user rights reach down to individual surveys and areas, rights management, workspaces and white-labelling come with the higher plans, single sign-on via Azure AD/Entra ID or ADFS sits on the Enterprise plan alongside two-factor authentication, and responses export to Excel and SPSS with an API documented. We found no public information on an audit log or a self-hosted edition, so accountability inside a team rests on roles alone. 3 4 5 10 16

European sovereignty

How this is scored

Who the contracting entity and the parent company are, where forms and responses are hosted, and who the subprocessors are (hosting, email delivery, payment providers, analytics, AI features). Independently sourced by the sovereignty pipeline; responses often carry personal and sometimes special-category data, so the whole chain counts, not only the database.

0 — Non-EU vendor and contracting entity, hosting unstated, subprocessors unnamed, and no data processing agreement offered.

3 — A privacy policy and a data processing agreement exist, but hosting location is unstated or non-EU and the subprocessors are not listed.

5 — EU hosting available and an EU contracting entity or EU representative, but parts of the chain (email, analytics, AI features, support) run through non-EU providers without a stated safeguard.

8 — EU hosting on named infrastructure, EU contracting entity, subprocessors listed with their locations, a data processing agreement published, and security certifications (ISO 27001, SOC 2) stated.

10 — Sovereign end to end and evidenced: European ownership, entity, hosting and every subprocessor, data export and deletion documented, and certifications published with their scope rather than implied.

Report an error

The Data Protection Officer

The chain is documented end to end: a German contracting entity seated in Berlin, hosting exclusively on German servers, and named subcontractors — IONOS in Montabaur for backups, Mailbox.org and Strato in Berlin for email dispatch — each with ISO 27001 or BSI C5 stated, plus Stripe Payments Europe in Ireland for payments with the transfer safeguards named, a published processing agreement, and ISO 27001, 27017, 27018 and TISAX AL2 for the operation itself. The only hole I found is the tax accountant used for bookkeeping, who appears without a name. 4 5 6 7 15

Pricing transparency

How this is scored

Whether a buyer can compute the real annual cost from public pages alone: price per plan and per user, response or submission limits and what happens above them, which features (logic, branding removal, SSO, EU hosting, analysis modules) need a higher plan, add-ons, minimum term and the free tier's limits.

0 — No public prices at all; every customer is a sales call.

3 — A starting price or a free tier exists, but how cost scales with users, responses or features is unclear.

5 — Plans are public with prices and their main limits (users, responses, forms), but at least one commonly needed piece (SSO, EU hosting, extra responses, branding removal) is unpriced or "on request".

8 — Every plan priced publicly with its limits, overage or extra-response prices, feature differences per plan in a comparison table, billing period, VAT treatment and cancellation terms stated.

10 — Complete price computability: annual cost derivable for a given number of users, responses and features, with every add-on, enterprise option, support level and data-return term published.

Report an error

The Data Protection Officer

Prices are public per plan — Basic 49 € / Monat or 490 € / Jahr, Gold 99 € / 990 €, Platin 199 € / 1990 €, Enterprise 499 € / 4990 € — each with participant limits per survey, user counts on the higher tiers, feature lists per plan, VAT stated as "Alle Preise zzgl. MwSt.", monthly cancellation, a 17 % annual discount, a free tier limited to 50 participants and a free tier for pupils, students and schools. We found no public information on overage or extra-response prices once a plan's participant limit is reached, which is the one figure a buyer cannot compute in advance. 3 8 9

Where this could be wrong

Evidence ages. The oldest capture behind this page is from 28 Oct 2026. Vendors change pricing and policies without notice; every fact reflects its source as of the capture date shown in the registry.
Weak sourcing — Data processing agreement, Transfer impact assessment, Hosting location, Legal entity. Not confirmed on the vendor’s own pages as captured.
AI can misread a source. Extraction and judgement are automated; a citation guarantees traceability, not infallibility. If something here is wrong, say so — no account needed, every report is decided within 5 business days, and accepted corrections are published.
