New Web Survey Feature: Advanced Link Logic

Monday, August 31, 2009 by Sherrie Mersdorf
Last week I explained the differences between branch logic and advanced logic when it comes to using Cvent's Web Survey software solution. What I didn't mention was our new link logic feature. This is probably my favorite of the new features we rolled out with our August Release. Here's how it works:

You're updating your training survey template and have always felt you needed separate sub-questions because you wanted to show different options based on which class someone took. If they took a professional development course on how to use excel versus a class on delivering effective sales pitches. Instead of having the same question twice with different options, you can now have a single question and tell the survey software which options to show based on a previous response.

Another good example of where you can use link logic is when you're asking demographic survey questions. If it's important to know which county someone lives in, you now have the ability to create one question and show only the counties that are applicable to the state selected.

Link logic is an addition to the advanced logic screen. It's very simple to set up. Here's a quick sample demographic survey question I set up with link logic:
