## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-10-23 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> Here's how I'd rank them. "Agency" splits into two quite different jobs, so I've grouped accordingly - but the top pick for most agencies is the same either way.
> 
> ## If you're a marketing/digital agency running surveys for clients
> 
> 1. **Alchemer** - my default recommendation. Research-grade logic, piping, and quotas, but priced for mid-market: ~$55/mo for a Collaborator seat, ~$275/mo for Full Access, with custom enterprise tiers. It's the sweet spot between SurveyMonkey's shallowness and Qualtrics' procurement cycle, and it handles multi-client workspaces without an enterprise contract.

> 2. **SurveyMonkey (Enterprise)** - the safe one when the deliverable is an insight deck and the client already knows the brand. Deepest template library and the easiest handoff to non-researchers. Downside: enterprise contracts average $38k+/yr, which only pencils out if you're spreading it across many accounts.
