Google Forms Review

Comprehensive customization for form design

Google Forms allows users to customize a form’s color, theme, and font. Images and videos can be easily uploaded to forms, too. Once a Google Form is created, users can add and edit up to 300 pieces of content and add up to 75 sections. This versatility ensures that even lengthy forms are organized and easy to understand. Sections can also be duplicated as needed, and questions from previous forms can be reused.

Versatile options for form behavior

Google Forms ensures that forms work the way users intend them to. The platform can shuffle questions and answer choices once per email address, so questions and answer options appear in a different order for each respondent. Users can set up a survey so certain sections will become visible to respondents based on their answers. Moreover, users can also set response validation and criteria-matching rules for their forms so they can get the right kind of response.

Automatic feedback and grading for quizzes

Google Forms also enables more efficient grading for quizzes. Once a quiz is created, users can make an answer key and assign point values to each question included. Automatic summaries for all quiz responses are also included, with details on frequently missed questions as well as average, media, and range of scores. Aside from points, feedback can also be added to each quiz response. Users will be able to set preferences for when scores are released, too.

Convenient form sharing options

Through Google Forms, forms can be easily sent through email or shared through a unique URL. Links to pre-filled forms can also be generated as needed. For added convenience, the platform enables direct sharing to Twitter, Facebook, and Google+. Users who want to embed forms on websites or blogs can do so through an HTML code. Moreover, like with other Google products, Google Forms lets users add collaborators to any form they create.

Easier response management

Google Forms also makes it easy to manage form responses. Users can modify settings to limit responses or allow people to edit responses. Users will also be able to view summary charts for forms and view responses by question or by person. For easier tracking, responses can be exported to a spreadsheet or CSV file.

Extensible functionalities through add-ons and Apps Script

The G Suite Marketplace is home to add-ons that extend the functionalities of Google Forms. Through these add-ons, users can create new types of forms such as certifications and view more advanced summaries of form responses. Through add-ons, Google Form users can also integrate data from Forms with other Google Applications.
