Do More with Microsoft Forms

Do More with Microsoft Forms

There are millions of Microsoft 365 users globally. Businesses rely on it to power email, drive productivity, and connect to colleagues. Forms is another great tool for users of Microsoft 365.

In April 2020, Office 365 became Microsoft 365. The value of it for communication and collaboration stays intact. A Microsoft 365 subscription provides Word, Excel, Outlook, PowerPoint, and other useful applications. Those are the familiar options.

But Microsoft is always evolving its cloud-based services. Microsoft Teams is a chat-based workspace integrating people, content, and tools. There is also To-Do application, Flow for managing notifications, and Power Bi Pro analytics to name a few.

Another good one to get comfortable with? Microsoft Forms.

Microsoft 365 Forms Makes Data Collection Easier

Microsoft Forms allows you to create surveys, generate quizzes, conduct polls, and capture data.

This easy-to-use application simplifies form creation. You select "New Form" or "New Quiz," input the form details, add images if you want them, and you are ready to go. You can click and drag to choose your question types from multiple choice, text, rating, or date options.

Ready-made themes allow you to pick assorted colors or graphics to personalize your survey. Before you go live, you can also preview and test your survey. You can even share with a colleague to collaborate on the survey design.

It is that easy. In a few minutes you can create the tool you need to:

• collect employee input
• measure customer satisfaction
• poll your team about how they feel
• quiz employees doing virtual learning

Once you have your finished link, you can paste it into an email, post it on social media, or put it on your website. You can also generate a QR code for mobile device use.

Get Results with Microsoft Forms

OK, you have shared your new survey, and the responses are raining down on you! There is a dashboard for that. You can track the number of responses and average completion time. Plus, you can drill down into question data.

For any question, you can display your results in charts or graphs for that PowerPoint.

Since this is part of the Microsoft suite, Forms integrates with Excel, too. You can import the data there to leverage the full power of Excel’s analysis tools.

If you want to get even more advanced, upgrade to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Customer Voice. This application helps you gather real-time customer feedback.

There are plenty of survey tools available online today. SoGoSurvey, SurveyMonkey, or TypeForm are top examples. Free versions can limit the number of questions or respondents surveyed.

Microsoft Forms integrates with other Microsoft 365 tools in your subscription. For quick intake or call center satisfaction, Forms is an intuitive application. It is easy to stay connected with customers and employees.
