Office 365 SharePoint Survey

Many times feedback from co-workers is beneficial. One way to gather that feedback is through the use of SharePoint Surveys. Many of our clients utilize this tool after training classes, to gather feedback on web content or to gather opinions on other issues (even what day of the week to have a team cookout).

The first step is to create a survey. On upper hand side of the SharePoint page, select Site Actions and
then More Options:

Use the scroll bar on the right hand side of the next page and scroll down to Survey:

On the right hand side of the screen, enter a name for the Survey and select Create:

Survey creation begins immediately and a series of options are available for the first question. The first survey question is entered and then the type of question is selected from the choices below:

Most of these options are self-explanatory and there are other options available as well, including requiring a response and enforcing unique values:

At the very bottom of the page, options are available to continue and create the next question, finish the
survey or cancel:

At this point, the new survey is created and ready for use. The survey can be secured just as any other list within SharePoint. There are several options available on the survey itself and those will be discussed in a blog later this week.
