LimeSurvey is the optimal online survey tool for research institutes, universities, and other educational establishments. Education surveys, academic surveys, university polls, surveys for students or surveys for teachers – with LimeSurvey all university surveys are quick and easy.
Why? Because providing the best opportunities for education and developing knowledge is important to us. Use our professional LimeSurvey Cloud service. With that, we offer universities all the tools they need for extensive studies, to implement experimental designs or to just run simple LifeSurveys. Try it today!
Define the rights and roles of individual users, while keeping track of the large number of users involved.
Manage those taking part in a survey, track their response behaviour, and exclude multiple responses by the same participant. Plus, create anonymous surveys.
Invite participants by email directly from LimeSurvey, or send reminders to those who have not yet completed your market research questionnaire.
Safeguard yourself through consent in compliance with the GDPR and choose a location for the secure storage of your data, all of which is your personal property.
Integrate LimeSurvey into the infrastructure of your university or college so that participants can log in with their existing user IDs.
Export the survey results in just a few clicks. Make these available for processing and evaluation in applications such as Excel, SPSS, R or Stata.
Educational institutions depend on robust environments to conduct reliable studies. With LimeSurvey, we offer a solution that makes the technical implementation of these surveys effortless. To put it simply: the content is up to you – we provide you with the perfect platform.
If you are using our LimeSurvey Cloud hosting:
When creating your LimeSurvey Cloud instance, you will be asked for the server location, where we will host your data. Currently, we offer the following hosting location:
After selecting a location, we will store your data exclusively on a server in that country.
If you are using our LimeSurvey Community Edition:
In that case, all your data is stored on your or your provider’s server (usually the one where you installed LimeSurvey).

If you cancel your subscription, you will continue to have access to all features of your plan for the time period you already paid (this is the same for LimeSurvey ComfortUpdate and LimeSurvey Cloud). If you are using LimeSurvey Cloud and the subscription has expired, you will fall back to the Free package. You will still be able to access all collected responses and use all features of the Free version.
We are very concerned about security. Your survey/response data is stored in a separate database with a separate user name/password for each LimeSurvey Cloud instance. The connection is encrypted if you are using SSL connections (that is the default — visible by https:// prepending your survey links).
The data inside LimeSurvey is not encrypted because it is regularly accessed by the LimeSurvey application (it is not at rest).
However, we create daily backups of your LimeSurvey data. That data is at rest and encrypted, stored safely on a different server, but at the same hosting location.
Step into a bright future with our simple online survey tool
