What teams are saying

“

We were paying for SurveyMonkey just to get anonymous responses. Chooseday gives us that on the free plan, and the result is already calculated.

The 10-response limit on SurveyMonkey free was a joke for team polls. Chooseday has no such limit and takes two minutes to set up.
