Bottom line
Our verdict
Google Forms is the sensible default for quick internal surveys, event feedback and lightweight data collection. Collaboration is easy and responses flow naturally into Sheets. Branding, advanced logic, research methods and respondent experience are intentionally basic.
fast and familiar is central to your survey workflow, and its limitations do not block the method or follow-up you need.
limited design control is a deal-breaker for your team.
