Select type of question:
-
Text question
These questions allow you to write an open-ended question that your team can answer and explain it with a text response.
-
Numeric scale questions
This option allows you to quantitatively measure different aspects by letting you create a question with a scale that is always from 0 to 10 and choose what each end of the scale means (10 is good and 0 is bad, for example).
-
Star rating question
These questions allow you to measure a statement using a visual star scale.
A weighting is assigned to each star on the scale and then an average is calculated. -
Likert scale
These questions allow you to measure a statement on a 5-choice scale, from strongly disagree to strongly agree.
-
Custom choice
These questions allow you to measure a statement using a scale of between 2 and 10 options, each of which is fully customizable.
*Numerical scale, star rating, likert and custom choice questions also come with a text response in order to explain the value chosen on the scale. The text response is optional, but more feedback always helps both parties to communicate better.
Add a question by clicking on the Add Another Question button.
Delete questions by clicking on the red trash bin at the corner of each question’s box.
Once you are done, click Continue.
