What is the Microsoft equivalent to Google Forms?
Microsoft Forms is the closest equivalent; it lets you create surveys, quizzes and polls that sync with Excel and other Microsoft 365 apps.
The Microsoft equivalent to Google Forms is Microsoft Forms. Included with Microsoft 365 subscriptions, Microsoft Forms allows you to create surveys, quizzes and polls, collect responses and analyse results. Like Google Forms, it offers multiple question types (multiple choice, text, rating scales, dates) and basic branching logic. Responses are stored in the cloud and can be exported to Excel for deeper analysis.
Microsoft Forms integrates seamlessly with other Microsoft products. For example, you can add a form to a SharePoint page, embed it in Teams or link it to Power Automate to trigger workflows. This tight integration makes Microsoft Forms particularly appealing for organisations already using Microsoft 365.
The free version of Microsoft Forms is limited to personal use and has fewer customisation features than paid plans. Business users may need to subscribe to a Microsoft 365 plan to enable advanced security and sharing options.
