This topic of survey tools has been discussed many times on the
WebAIM list. Here's a link to an extended thread from July of 2011:

<http://webaim.org/discussion/mail_thread?threadG80>;http://webaim.org/discussion/mail_thread?threadG80

This thread discusses the output from tools.


The topic of "preferred survey platform" was also opened in the last
couple of weeks. This discussion began on August 13. Here's a link

Not that we're voting, but if I were, I'd vote that this question of
accessible survey tools gets asked most often on this list.

It never ceases to impress me how easy the WebAIM archives are to
search and read. Thanks for that, Jared, and any other responsible
members of the WebAIM team.
