Study Type
Market research, academic or institutional, corporate or HR, and customer experience are the most common study types. The category shapes assumptions about data handling, reporting structure, and the deployment approach that fits best.

Helpful to Include
What Information Makes A Strong Survey Programming Inquiry
You do not need a polished specification to submit an inquiry. A working draft and a summary of what the study needs to accomplish is enough to get started. The details below help narrow the estimate significantly when they are available.
Estimated Question Count
Total questionnaire length is the most direct cost driver, and an estimate is fine. Fewer than 25, 25 to 75, 75 to 150, or 150 and above are all useful brackets for scoping survey programming work.
Languages Needed
Each additional language multiplies multilingual survey deployment effort through locale setup, translation string integration, and full QA across every language variant. Right-to-left scripts and non-Latin character encoding add further technical work.
Target Launch Date
Hard deadlines or target field windows help prioritize scheduling and surface any turnaround risks early. Compressed timelines are possible but may carry a scheduling adjustment that is better discussed before survey programming begins.
Reporting Needs
Real-time dashboards, cross-tab outputs, and stakeholder-facing reporting views are configured, not provided by default. Knowing what you need to see during and after fieldwork shapes post-launch survey support requirements significantly.
Common questions
Frequently Asked Questions About Survey Programming Quotes
These are the questions that come up most often before a first inquiry is submitted. More detail on pricing, platforms, and project scope is available on the Pricing page.
How quickly can a quote be provided?
Most inquiries receive a custom project-based quote within two business days. Complex studies that require clarifying questions before scoping may take slightly longer. All responses come directly, not an automated system or assistant.
What survey platforms do you support?
LimeSurvey is the primary platform. Other platforms are available depending on client requirements. Because LimeSurvey is open-source, it carries no per-response licensing fees, which directly reduces your project cost compared to enterprise platform alternatives. Platform preferences are best discussed at the inquiry stage so the quote reflects any platform-specific constraints.
Do you program multilingual surveys?
Yes. Multilingual survey deployment includes locale setup, translation string integration, encoding verification for non-Latin scripts, and full QA across each language variant to confirm logic parity, display accuracy, and correct skip-pattern behavior. Translation content is provided by the client or a translation partner. What this service covers is the technical integration, QA, and deployment of translated content into a working, validated multilingual survey.
How does project-based pricing compare to hourly billing?
Hourly billing transfers scope risk to the client. Every revision, clarification, or unexpected platform issue bills at the same rate with no ceiling. A project-based quote defines the deliverable and the price together. Changes to scope after the quote is accepted can be priced separately, but the base project has a known cost from the start. For research teams with fixed budgets per study, this predictability has direct operational value.
What is needed to submit an inquiry?
A rough questionnaire draft or project outline is enough. A polished specification is not required to receive a meaningful estimate. Helpful details include study type, approximate question count, languages needed, whether you need full email deployment and outreach or just the programmed survey link, your target launch date, and any reporting requirements. Include as much of this as you have available when submitting the form.
Are surveys built to WCAG 2.1 accessibility standards?
Yes. WCAG 2.1 compliance is built into every survey from the start rather than added after development is complete. This includes accessible interaction patterns, keyboard navigation, screen reader compatibility, and mobile-responsive layouts. Every survey is tested for accessibility before fielding begins, not just reviewed against a checklist.
