Short version: **SurveyMonkey** or **Typeform** if surveys are a service line alongside other work; **Forsta, Qualtrics, or Sawtooth/Conjointly** if fielded quant research *is* the business.\n\n## If you're a marketing/creative/CX agency running surveys for clients\n\n1. **SurveyMonkey (Team/Enterprise)** - the default. Cheap enough to bill through ($~4.3k/yr average for SMB plans), decent crosstabs and significance testing, built-in panel (SurveyMonkey Audience) when a client has no list, and multi-seat accounts with per-client workspaces. Insight decks come out of it without extra tooling. ([spendhound.com](https://www.spendhound.com/marketplace/surveymonkey-pricing))\n2. **Typeform** - pick this when completion rate matters more than analysis depth: lead-gen, post-campaign surveys, anything embedded on a client site. Much better-looking than SurveyMonkey and far cheaper (~$1.5k/yr SMB average), but the analysis side is thin, so you'll export to Sheets/Looker.
