## Reviews

### "Gathering information is easy" — 4.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *13 May 2019* | Online Media | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Google forms are easy to set up, use and understand. There are also various ways you can ask a question, with either tick boxes or fields to write it.
> 
> **Cons**: You easily create the form with questions and then forward the link to the people you require information from.
> 
> The benefit of using Google Forms is that it is a quick and free way to gather information from a large audience, simply by forwarding them a link.

### "Trusty and Easy to use" — 5.0/5

> **Lora** | *06 July 2026* | Food & Beverages | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I love how easy it is to create forms. It’s very simple and people trust the link since it’s a reputable site.
> 
> **Cons**: I wish the forms could look cuter/ be more customizable to fit our brand. More fun fonts and ability to make animations.
> 
> I use Google forms for our baristas to fill out bios to post on social media, and for community spotlights with small businesses in our area that we feature on social media. At one point we used them for staff check-ins but now use a communications apps for that.

### "Easy, Free, and Convenient" — 5.0/5

> **Beulah** | *19 August 2026* | Banking | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Google Forms is very easy to use, free, and simple to share across different platforms using a link. It also makes collecting and organizing responses convenient, with seamless integration with Google Sheets
> 
> **Cons**: One limitation is that a “Match the Following” question type is not available when creating questions. Adding this option would make Google Forms more useful for quizzes, assessments, and educational purposes.
> 
> Overall, Google Forms is a simple, reliable, and convenient tool for creating surveys, quizzes, and feedback forms. It is quick to set up, easy to share, and makes collecting and reviewing responses straightforward.

### "Convenient for busy work" — 3.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *27 July 2026* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy to send out as mass communication, very easy to customize to needs of the organization, user-friendly, does not need to be filled out by people using software other than the G-suite, making it more accessible and global in nature
> 
> **Cons**: They are often not able to be edited after submission, which makes it difficult for users to change their answers later on. The legal bindingness of the form is also questionable to me.
> 
> My organization often uses google forms for teachers and students to obtain feedback and gather data. Data presentation is particularly well done in this program.
