Feedback
Event feedback
Rates the event overall and the parts separately, because an event people loved can still have a session that didn't land.

Free, no card. It lands in your workspace as an editable draft.
Worth knowing
- The welcome screen and the intro text above the first question carry example turnaround times, policies and promises. Rewrite them as yours before you publish — they are the part respondents take literally.

How to use this template
Open it as a draft
Press "Use this template" and it lands in your workspace as an editable form with all 5 questions already in it. No card, and nothing is published until you say so.
Cut what you do not need
Every question you remove is one fewer reason to abandon the form. It takes about 3 minutes to fill in as it stands, and that is the number worth protecting.
Add from the question bank
Pick what you are missing from the questions below. Drag any of them in, change the wording, and use conditional logic so people only see the ones that apply to them.
Share it, or put it on your own site
Publish to get a link, or embed it in a page you already have. Answers arrive in your dashboard, and you can send them on to anywhere else with a webhook or an integration.
32 event feedback form questions to choose from
Event feedback has a short window. Send it within a day and you get detail; send it the following week and you get 'it was good'. Have the form written before the event starts.
Below: the questions that tell you what to repeat, and the ones that quietly decide whether people come back.

Event Feedback form questions, answered
- When should I send an event feedback form?
- Within twenty-four hours, ideally before people leave the room. A QR code on the final slide outperforms an email the next week by a wide margin.
- What should an event feedback survey ask?
- One overall rating, best and worst, and what they want next time. Session-by-session ratings are worth it only if you will actually drop a session over them.
- How do I get more responses to an event survey?
- Keep it under a minute, ask while people are still there, and say what you will do with it. Prize draws work but skew who answers.
- Should event feedback be anonymous?
- Offer it. Anonymous gets you the honest verdict on a speaker; named lets you follow up with someone who had a bad time. Make the email field optional rather than choosing for everyone.
- Is this event feedback form template free?
- Yes. Use it, publish it and collect answers on the free plan with no card. Paid plans add things like payments, scheduling, removing our badge and your own domain, but none of them are needed to run this form.
- Do I need an account to use it?
- You need one to edit and publish, because the form has to live somewhere and the answers have to come back to you. Signing up takes about a minute and does not ask for a card. The people filling your form in never need an account.
- Can I change the questions?
- All of them. The template is a starting point, not a fixed form: add, remove, reword and reorder anything, change the look, and use logic so people only see the questions that apply to them.
- Can I put it on my own website?
- Yes. Embed it in a page you already have, or share the link. On a paid plan you can serve it from your own domain so the address says your name rather than ours.
- Where do the answers go?
- Into your dashboard, where you can read, search and export them as CSV. You can also have each response emailed to you, pushed to another tool with a webhook, or sent to a connected integration.
- How long does this form take to fill in?
- About 3 minutes as it stands, across 5 questions. Every question you cut brings that down, and shorter forms get finished more often.
