Overall a great platform! It helped me a lot to find participants for my survey. The customer support is pleasant and I think you get great support. However, the platform is sometimes slow. This could still be improved. But basically I was very satisfied to use it.
One of the best platforms for conducting surveys and getting genuine, duly-filled forms! Thank you :))

SurveyCircle is a very good place for your data collection, especially if your survey is more than just a few multi-choice items. It takes a while to climb the ranking but you can rest assured that you'll never miss any points you've earned with your time. Huge shoutout for customer service to the managers! You guys are awesome!

A very useful tool for researchers seeking survey participants. To get the most out of it, be prepared early and ready to engage in others' surveys, as the platform thrives on community participation. You'll not only gather valuable responses but also gain insights to improve your own questionnaires.
I used SurveyCircle to get participants for my survey and it was quite effective. I would use them again anytime.

I found SurveyCircle very easy and intuitive to use. The website is well structured, simple to navigate, and the instructions are clear at every stage, which made the whole process feel straightforward rather than overwhelming. I was able to collect around 90% of my survey responses through the platform, which was incredibly helpful for my research. I would definitely recommend SurveyCircle to other students and researchers looking for an efficient and supportive way to recruit participants.

SurveyCircle helped get my survey for my DBA thesis going. You have to invest a significant amount of your time in doing others' surveys to earn points for your own. However, this is very much a supporting community and by doing some time you can earn free responses up to a certain amount. You can then pay if you wish to expand it. Through this option, the company blasts your survey on all their networks for more attention. It is very helpful fo students!

Very helpful! I think SurveyCircle is a fantastic tool for finding survey participants while helping others in the same boat. I really like the concept of mutual support as it creates a great sense of community :-) Earning points takes a bit of time, but it's absolutely worth it.
The platform is really smart and well-structured! I easily reached my goal. I'm happy to have contributed by upgrading the plan because they deserved it.

I used SurveyCircle to recruit participants for my academic study, and the experience has been excellent. The platform is user-friendly, and the support from Jonas (the founder) was both professional and sincere. After upgrading my slot, my survey was promoted quickly on their social media, which helped increase visibility and participant numbers. I truly appreciate how SurveyCircle supports researchers by offering a fair and structured way to connect with other scholars. As a university professor, I find this kind of academic exchange platform especially valuable—it's community-driven, transparent, and built with real researchers in mind. I highly recommend it to anyone conducting survey-based research. — Dr. Feng-Chao Yang Department of Accounting and Information Management Da-Yeh University, Taiwan

Got over 200 subjects for my survey. Useful but you gotta put in effort because you need to get points or else no one is interested. Slots are very expensive to buy which is annoying. But it’s useful if you need a lot of subjects and you need it quick. Very good.

Great Service. I collected a medium sized sample for a study on romantic relationships. Since my eligibility criteria were rather restrictive, I did not expect to get that many participants from SC. It worked out really well regardless and the quality of the data was better than that of data collected through Facebook (i.e. the ratio of complete vs. incomplete answers was twice as large). Slight drawback will probably be the very selective sample you get from using research exchange platforms. But considering the selection bias associated with recruiting online, academics (or so-called WEIRD people) are more likely to respond to free online studies anyway. Regardless, a quick way to get data of decent quality. So overall, I can only give out a straight-forward recommendation.

This website was really helpful to find people for my target audience. I'll admit I had to do many surveys to get to the top (about 100 of them), but this system worked better in my opinion that the "karma" system on SurveySwap, where you constantly had to complete surveys to gain points, which were then taken from you. At least on SurveyCircle I kept the points I earned. Within a week I got 100 participants, I'll clean my data soon and see how many are usable. I noticed some of them were not filled in properly, but customer service was very helpful and quick in replacing the slots I had left.

SurveyCircle has been a great help to me in recruiting participants to take part in my surveys. SurveyCircle make it very easy and quick to upload surveys to their platform which saves a great amount of stress. Jonas and the team have also been very helpful and have responded very quickly to my emails whenever I have had any questions. I highly recommend SurveyCircle to anyone looking for a place to recruit participants to take part in their research.

Overall, I had a really good experience and found SurveyCircle very helpful. Some things to be aware of if you're thinking about using it: (1) there are things you can do that will have a significant impact on how many survey responses you get (e.g. some of the biggest ones are that you do need to take a lot of other people's surveys and get a lot of points before you start getting a lot of responses coming in, and also if your survey's too long, it's likely to get less responses); and (2) you will get some responses where people clearly answered very hastily and didn't fill it out properly (e.g. straight-lining scales in your survey), so you should probably have clear-cut criteria ready to use to exclude certain survey responses for when people have clearly just sped through it without answering it properly, which would screw up the validity of your study if you have enough of those responses in there. So what I would say is that if you're aware of some of the limitations and challenges of SurveyCircle and willing to navigate those, it is worth using for many types of survey and can be a very useful tool. Just go in with your eyes wide open and try to use a strategy to get the most out of it. Also, please, please, please, when you're answering other people's surveys to get points so your survey can get more responses, take the time to do it properly. DON'T just rush through it and not answer properly. Answer it how you'd want people to answer yours. I was saddened by how common it is for people to just rush through the survey in like 2 minutes and not even answer things properly (e.g. straight-lining and stuff like that). Don't be one of those people. If everyone did it like that, the platform would have no usefulness whatsoever. So just answer people's surveys properly.
