Yesterday I installed PHPSurveyor, a MySQL+PHP based piece of software that enables you to create online questionnairies.
It took me some time to get the software working, but that was basically because the configationfile is not too obvious with its remarks/documentation what to supply as rootdir and as rooturl. The documentation says it should basically be the same, but I found that this is not correct. There is also a reference to the rootdir-variable that should have been rooturl. Having sorted that out, things went very smooth.
With PHPSurveyor, you can create online interviews, and as in all good interview-software, questions can be of different types, they can be conditional (branching) and there’s a bunch of pages to view the results and statistics. The interface is very neat and straightforward.
I will create a survey soon, to act as a proof-of-concept for my perhaps future employee. They want to conduct surveys with potential clients on paper (finding suspects/prospects and sending them the survey via postal mail), but I think having a survey online could lead to “automatic” suspect/prospect generation. One never knows who stops by…
