SurveyMonkey

Release Notes – May 2025 to December 2025

  • Make your surveys feel like a real-time conversation. You can now show or hide questions dynamically on the same page as soon as a respondent answers. By keeping the experience fluid and removing page breaks, you keep respondents engaged and focused—leading to deeper, more contextual insights. Access through our Advanced Branching feature.
  • Say goodbye to expired links and "can you resend that?" emails. We’ve introduced a single, Persistent Magic Link that stays active forever, ensuring your workflow never hits a dead end. Collaborators can now restart sessions or change modes on their own—removing bottlenecks and keeping feedback flowing without relying on the survey creator.
  • Use one URL to seamlessly switch between a non-expiring Preview or a time-limited Review Session.
  • Never lose your train of thought. Analyze with AI now saves your chat history, allowing you to revisit past questions and pick up exactly where you left off. We’ve also moved the chat panel inline, creating a seamless side-by-side view that keeps your analysis workflow uninterrupted.
  • Language is no longer a barrier to understanding emotion. Sentiment Analysis now supports all 57 SurveyMonkey languages. You can instantly unlock insights from open-ended questions across the globe without lifting a finger to translate—just clear, actionable sentiment data in any language we support.
  • Branching logic shouldn't break your data model. You can now map multiple survey questions to a single Salesforce field, ensuring that—no matter which path a respondent takes—the answer lands in the one correct spot. This completely eliminates the need to build complex field-merging formulas, making your downstream reporting cleaner, faster, and error-free.
  • Give your surveys the entrance they deserve. We’ve refreshed the Email Collector template with a cleaner, modern layout. This polished presentation improves readability, ensuring your invitations look professional and compelling the moment they hit the inbox.

  • Recently, we gave you custom values to clean up your data. Now, we’re giving you the Context to understand it. You can now map the actual Question Text directly to Salesforce alongside the response. This builds on our recent automation upgrades to ensure your stakeholders know exactly what was asked without leaving the CRM—making your dashboards instantly clearer and more meaningful.
  • Sharing insights is now faster and better looking. We’ve completely modernized the export interface for a smoother, intuitive experience. The highlight? Quick exports—instantly download any chart as a PDF or PNG with just one click, allowing you to grab visuals for your presentation in seconds.
