Switch to Surveyz

Switch to Surveyz — bring your surveys & forms with you

Moving from another survey tool shouldn't mean starting from scratch. Import your existing surveys and e-signature forms, keep your POPIA compliance, and run everything from one South African platform — with your data always yours to export.

How migration works

Our import wizard turns an export from your current tool into a ready-to-edit draft survey in four steps. No spreadsheets to wrangle by hand, no developers required.

Export from your tool

Download your survey from your existing platform — a CSV/XLSX of questions, a Typeform JSON export, or a Qualtrics .qsf file.

Upload to Surveyz

Drop the file into the import wizard. We auto-detect the format and parse your questions, options and structure.

Review & map

Check how each question and answer mapped across. Tweak question types, wording and themes before anything is created.

Draft created

A new draft survey lands in your dashboard. Finish it your way, then publish, share a link or collect responses.

What transfers across — and what doesn't

We're honest about migration. Your survey structure comes with you. Historical responses and signatures stay with the original tool — they're legally bound to where they were collected.

What we bring across

Surveys and e-signature forms (petitions, consent forms, attendance registers)
Question text and answer options
Question types — multiple choice, rating, text, dropdown and more
Survey order and grouping, ready to refine in the editor
A clean Surveyz theme you can re-brand with your own colours and logo

What stays with your old tool

Historical responses. Past submissions remain in the tool that collected them. Export them there for your records.
Signed forms & signatures. A captured e-signature is legally tied to the document and platform it was signed on — it can't be re-homed.
Tool-specific logic & integrations. Complex branching or third-party connections are rebuilt natively in Surveyz — usually better, but not auto-imported.

Frequently asked questions

Is migration POPIA compliant?

Yes. Surveyz is built in South Africa and hosted in Microsoft Azure South Africa North (Johannesburg). When you import a survey you bring across its structure — questions and options, not respondents' personal information. Any personal data you later collect through Surveyz is processed under our POPIA Compliance commitments and Privacy Policy.

What exactly transfers when I import?

Your survey or form's questions, answer options, question types and ordering. Historical responses and any captured signatures stay with the original tool — they're legally bound to where they were collected. You finish and re-brand the imported draft in the Surveyz editor before publishing.

How long does it take?

For Typeform and Qualtrics, a direct file import usually takes a couple of minutes — upload, review the mapping, and a draft is created. For tools that use the generic CSV route, allow a little longer to fill in the template, but most surveys are ready to publish the same day.

Does it cost anything to import?

No. Importing surveys is free on every plan, including the free tier. You only pay for the plan features you choose to use after you've moved across — and e-signature form types need a plan that includes e-signature forms.

Which tools can I import from directly?

Today, Typeform (JSON export) and Qualtrics (.qsf export) import directly. For SurveyMonkey, Jotform and Google Forms, native importers are coming soon — in the meantime you can move across quickly using our generic CSV/XLSX template, which the import wizard provides.

Can I get my data back out later?

Always. Export responses as CSV or XLSX at any time, or to SPSS (.sav) for academic analysis. There's no lock-in and no exit fee.
