Wow, this looks really good. I've spent some time designing UIs to solve the same problem, and you've done a better job than I did. I just have a couple thoughts: 1. Give the…
nathanbarry on HNThis is really great. I love how you did the google docs demo as the starter modal. Looks like a great product, but I think most of the people building these would be less…
vlokshin on HNI worked for a mystery shopping company for about 4 years and we relied heavily on surveys. There are some of the things we ran into with our "system" that I thought I'd share.…

Responsive performance
From 2 comments
I got a screen resolution error at 1280x1024, but clicking onto the demo video and then hitting back in my browser got me to the app (which looked absolutely fine at my res).…
5l on HNI find it awesome that your survey tool functions very well, but also that it is performing so well under the load of HN #1 thread. Nice work!

Objections
Minimum screen size requirement blocks smaller screens
From 5 comments
Oops, didn't occur to me that somebody would have their screen in portrait. Will fix it in a moment. I do think that there should be a minimum resolution set as the application…
martinaglv on HNIn all honesty, the size requirement is terrible. I took one look at the page saying I need a bigger window and hit ctrl-w and thought: "well maybe that was a cool page, the…
sophacles on HNIs there a real reason you can't just get rid of the size requirement? People can see to resize their browser window if they're feeling cramped and it's practical.
spicyj on HNYour users are going to be non-technical such as managers not software developers. The message is misleading. It is talking about screen size not screen resolution. Moreover, why…
drd on HN"Visimojo works best on screens that are at least 1280x720. Maximize the window to enjoy it fully." my resolution is higher

Pricing is high or should be per survey
From 3 comments
Like it - but price is putting ME off. Would you consider per survey, instead of per month, pricing plan?
tomasz_l on HNRe: Saw the pricing of $24/month on the page. Dunno why I missed that. Would you consider charging for each Survey or each Response instead?
hussfelt on HNYeah, URL Fix is key I think... But about the pricing; consider this: * You'd probably earn hellofalot more with individual pricing? I mean, I pay per sent SMS/Email/Whatever on…

nathanbarry on HNAwesome. Put a notice notifying we need to click and drag the board to move around. By default we tend to use our mouse scrolls. You can simplly put a css `cursor:move` property…
justhw on HN2 more things: Autosave would be awesome! Missing scrolling with the mouse, now I need to drag to scroll... Scrolling with the trackpad on a Mac would be so neat!

Back button and autosave
From 2 comments
Yeah, I think a back button will be a good solution. I'd prefer to click a few times to fix a mistake then have to click twice for every answer.

Regex validation on free text inputs
From 1 comment
Amazing service, the only thing missing (and that would stop me from using it) is the ability to check the Free Text input with a regexp (to be sure that the user input is a…

What is the pricing structure?

Awesome app! Looks promising! Q: You where asking permission to perform tasks when I was not using the app on my google account. Why is that? :-) Tip: Id love to see you obscure…

How does it compare to Poll Daddy or Qualtrics?

Not trying to be facetious but doesn't Poll Daddy solve the branching issue now? How does your product compare to something like Poll Daddy for the like to like features? Is it…
