Salesforce Surveys
Salesforce Surveys has been released in the Spring’18 Release. This enables you to make excellent, easy-to-use forms for collecting feedback and data from your clients. Different types of inquiries can be added to gather the data you need. All your profitable review information is stored in your organization, so you can tackle the intensity of Salesforce to see information, make reports and dashboards, and offer experiences with your organization. This feature is generally available in Classic and Lightning Experience.

To create multiple surveys, contact your Salesforce representative to purchase licenses for Salesforce Surveys.
