Need to gather survey answers, quiz results, or customer feedback in one place? Microsoft Forms lets you build forms online, share them with respondents, and follow incoming answers from a Windows device using a web browser.
What can you create with Microsoft Forms?
Start with a blank form or choose a template, then add questions for a survey, quiz, exam, registration, or feedback request. The templates give common tasks a ready-made structure, so you can adapt the questions and wording to the information you need.
AI-powered suggestions can propose questions and help shape a survey around its goal. This is especially relevant when you have a topic in mind but need ideas for what to ask.
How do you review submitted answers?
The response view gathers submissions as people complete the form. Charts provide a visual breakdown of answers, making it easier to spot patterns without first arranging each response by hand.
- Use a quiz to collect learners’ answers to assessment questions.
- Share a survey to gather opinions from customers or event participants.
- Export response data to Excel when you need to work with it in a spreadsheet.
Can Forms support a team workflow?
Forms suits recurring collection tasks such as asking for feedback or registering participants. A shared response record gives the form owner a place to monitor submissions, while Excel export provides a route to more detailed spreadsheet analysis. The browser-based workflow also means form creation and response review do not depend on a dedicated Windows desktop editor.
