The Wikimedia Foundation has an institutional subscription to Qualtrics.com, a web platform that provides a flexible toolkit for building surveys, deploying them electronically, and analyzing their data. Qualtrics also offers several important legal and technical safeguards to help keep survey data secure. If you would like to use Qualtrics for your own survey, contact Learning Strategist Jonathan Morgan or another member of the [[Programs:Evaluation_portal/About#Evaluation_Teams|Wikimedia Evaluation team]] to get started.

=== General considerations ===

*Qualtrics is particularly good for running multilingual surveys - you can deploy 1 survey with translated questions, and then slice answers by language or aggregate them all back together again at the end.<ref>https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikisource_Community_User_Group/Wikisource_survey_report</ref>
