Gnu Guix recently had a user survey, and they used limesurvey
Limesurvey is good, but requires a payed plan for large scale surveys.
I think thats only if you let them host it, selfhosted is unlimited
How are you defining 'large scale surveys'?
There were no scale restrictions on V1 when I used it, how is V2 restricted?
From the Limesurvey features page:
LimeSurvey 2.x currently offers:
Unlimited number of surveys at the same time
Unlimited number of questions in a survey (only limited by your database)
Unlimited number of participants to a survey
Was about half a year back for a school survey. 6 - 10 participants and 1-5 survey lists. So it wasn't even that much, but at some point I reached a limit.
So not even that big of scale but it still came up
The limit you reached seems to be at odds with the Limesurvey docs.
I haven't used Limesurvey recently to know if it works at large scale without restrictions, maybe someone else can weigh in.
Maybe but it's still what I experienced 🤷
toothbrush mentioned above that the limits may apply if you use Limesurvey's hardware.
No limits if you self-host.
