Why teams switch from SurveyMonkey

SurveyMonkey's per-feature paywalls and US data hosting frustrate many South African teams. Surveyz keeps the essentials affordable and local.

POPIA & SA hosting

Hosted in Azure South Africa North with POPIA-aware defaults — keep your respondents' data on local soil.

Pricing in rand

Transparent plans without surprise upsells to unlock basic features. Pay for what you use.

Surveys + e-signature forms

Run questionnaires plus ECT-Act-aligned petitions, consent forms and attendance registers in one place.

No lock-in

Export your responses as CSV, XLSX or SPSS any time. Your data is always yours.

How to bring your SurveyMonkey surveys across

A native SurveyMonkey importer is coming soon. Until it lands, the fastest route is our generic CSV template — a simple spreadsheet of your questions and options that imports straight into a draft.

  1. Create a free Surveyz account (or sign in) and open the import wizard from your dashboard.
  2. Choose the CSV/XLSX source and download the import template — the same template the wizard provides, with a column for each part of a question.
  3. Open your SurveyMonkey survey and copy your questions and answer options into the template. (Tip: SurveyMonkey's “Print” or design view makes it easy to read off every question.)
  4. Upload the completed CSV/XLSX, review the mapping, and create your draft survey — ready to re-brand and publish.

Straight talk: we don't yet have a one-click SurveyMonkey importer, so today the CSV route involves a little copy-and-paste. It's quick for most surveys, and importing is free on every plan. Your historical SurveyMonkey responses stay in SurveyMonkey — export them there for your records.

FAQ

Is there a one-click SurveyMonkey importer?

Not yet — it's coming soon. For now you recreate your survey using our generic CSV/XLSX template, which the import wizard provides. We'd rather be honest than over-promise.

Will my historical SurveyMonkey responses come across?

No. Only your survey structure moves. Past responses remain in SurveyMonkey and should be exported there for your records.

Is this POPIA compliant?

Yes. Surveyz is hosted in South Africa and built with POPIA in mind. See our POPIA Compliance page.

Does importing cost anything?

No. Import is free on every plan, including the free tier.
