How to Use a Survey

Surveys can be used to for organizations to receive feedback about their application process. What is unique about surveys, rather than impact reports, is that you do not need to login to fill out a Survey.

There are a variety of customers that use surveys for purposes other than receiving feedback. Examples are:

  • Void/Reissue Request
  • Volunteer Opportunity Suggestions
  • Event Follow-up Survey
