We're giving you the opportunity to explore a survey tool trusted across higher education and increasingly used in healthcare, charities and the public sector.
A free 30-day trial of our online surveys platform is available now and allows organisations to evaluate the platform's survey creation, data collection and reporting capabilities before committing to a subscription.
Supporting trusted data collection
As organisations place increasing importance on gathering reliable feedback and insight, common challenges continue to emerge around data protection, accessibility, survey design and the ability to generate meaningful responses.
Many survey tools also impose restrictions on usage, including limits on the number of surveys, responses or users. These constraints can create challenges for organisations running multiple projects or operating at scale. Our online surveys platform is designed to support extensive use across teams and projects.
Established in higher education
Online surveys has been used across UK higher education for many years and supports several national surveys, including the Postgraduate Taught Experience Survey (PTES) and the Postgraduate Research Experience Survey (PRES).
The platform has also been used to support sector-wide initiatives such as the pre-arrival questionnaire pilot and the know your student survey.
These projects involve large-scale data collection and complex research methodologies, requiring secure and reliable handling of information. The same platform used to deliver these surveys is now available to organisations through the new free trial.
Growing use across sectors
While online surveys has its roots in higher education, its use has expanded across a range of sectors. Further education providers use the platform to gather insight into learner experiences, while NHS trusts, charities and public sector organisations use it for consultations, evaluations and feedback activities.
Organisations using the platform are often looking for:
- Confidence in data protection
- Accessibility for respondents
- Flexibility to support different survey requirements
- Trusted methods for gathering and sharing insight
- GDPR compliance and ISO27001 certification
- UK based customer support
From feedback to action
Survey data is increasingly being used to inform decision-making across education, healthcare and public services. Organisations are using insight to identify areas for improvement, shape services and respond to changing needs.
Our online surveys include tools to support survey design, audience engagement, analysis and the secure sharing of findings, helping organisations turn feedback into meaningful action.
Supporting future insight and engagement projects
Many organisations use quieter periods in the year to review processes, evaluate technology and prepare for future projects. Across education, healthcare, charities and the public sector, teams are planning surveys, consultations and engagement activities that will take place later in the year.
The launch of the free trial gives organisations an opportunity to explore the platform, test survey designs, familiarise users with key features and build confidence before their next feedback, consultation or research project.
