What can I do with it? 1) Collect testimonials from customers who have agreed to it; 2) conduct small products surveys effectively and cheaply; 3) conduct opinion polls with prospects and customers.
This software comes with easy installation instructions, but doesn't offer much on how to use it. So here are the steps and some tips.
1. Login. Enter the admin username and password created during installation.
2. Click Add Survey.
3. Fill in the text boxes. The Help section on the right of the screen is a very good guide. In Survey Name, I type in the product name plus "Success Stories", i.e., "Widget Success Stories".
4. Click Submit. Now you're back at the Main screen.
5. Click the name of the survey you want to add questions to.
6. Click Add Question.
7. Type your question into the first text box.
8. Select the type of form gadget you want to use to collect the answer. The choices are text, textarea (allows multiple lines of text), Option List (creates a drop down menu), Check box, Radio button, and Hidden.
9. Enter values for Width, Height and Caption. The Help section on the right of the screen should be consulted for the roll these values play. The explanation it provides is quite clear.
10. Enter a value for Default, or leave blank. This is an optional field. You use it if you want for example, "http://" in a question that asks for a URL.
Be specific with the question's that you ask. For example:
* What do you feel is Widget's best feature?
* How has that feature benefited you?
* Have you tried other competing products?
* Is there anything we could do to improve Widget?
