Hi Sara,

I too tried to use SurveyMonkey to create a survey last year but had to send
them feedback that they had actually hidden all the content within the
dialogs from screenreaders. The reply I got was that they had no current
plans to make the survey creation process accessible.

I did look into using one or two others, but found none that had even tried
for both accessible input and output.

Sorry this is a negative response. There's a real need for an end-to-end
accessible survey / feedback system. I'd be really interested if anyone else
has found one.

All the best,


Bim

Subject: [WebAIM] Accessible survey tools

Good afternoon,
Our department is looking at purchasing surveymonkey. We are tasked with
checking the accessibility of the program before purchase. We are also open
to suggesting a different survey tool if it is found to be more accessible.

I have been able to tell that generally the surveys themselves (in
surveymonkey) are accessible to screen reader users- but I am having
difficulty creating a survey using assistive technology (NVDA). As a
sighted user- it very well could be user error. I am hoping for some
feedback on the most accessible software for creating surveys. As well as if
any programs produce an accessible output report.

Thank you for your input and assistance!

Sara
