With SurveyMonkey’s SSO add-on, your organization can control access to your SurveyMonkey team and create authentication policies for increased security.
SurveyMonkey SSO follows the SAML 2.0 specification and is Service Provider (SP) initiated.
With SSO enabled, you can also use the Account Control feature to ensure individual SurveyMonkey accounts using your company's email domain belong to your Enterprise team.
If your company is a “covered entity” (as defined by HIPAA), SurveyMonkey offers a “HIPAA-enabled account” that enables covered entities to collect and manage PHI through surveys in a manner compliant with HIPAA.

Divisions are sub-groups within an Enterprise team, with their own admins, users, and division library. Primary Admins and Admins can add divisions for different departments, offices, clients, cost centers, or any other groups you want to manage separately or give unique branding assets.
Divisions help with administrative management of large teams while Workgroups help organize team members collaborating on survey projects.
Workgroups help organize team members with a shared purpose to work together on survey projects.
Primary Admins and Admins can create workgroups to quickly and easily share surveys with a group of people on your team. Plus, you can manage members, assign roles, and change owner status so each team member has the right level of access to surveys.
To allow Power Users to create, own, and manage workgroups, you can contact your CSM.

A Custom Sender Name & Email lets you specify the display name and email address survey-takers see in the From field when your team sends surveys with the Email Invitation.
It replaces the SurveyMonkey sender name and email.
Using a Custom Sender Name & Email makes it more likely for your emails to be delivered and for survey-takers to open the survey and respond when they recognize your familiar and trusted brand.
Primary Admins can choose to set a custom sender name for the entire team or for specific members only.
When Custom Sender Name & Email is turned on, team members can choose to update the display name and local name when selecting their email's collector options.
The Custom Question Bank feature lets Primary Admins and Admins add custom questions to their team’s Library.
When you add questions to the Library, they become available in the Question Bank. You can also add tags to your custom questions to make them easy for team members to find.
Full Access seats on your team can search and browse company questions in the Question Bank and add them to their surveys.
The library is where team members can find and use shared assets to create surveys. These shared assets include images, documents, templates, themes, and questions.
Primary Admins and Admins can add or manage items in the team library and set default assets to be automatically added to new surveys that teammates create.
The Activity tab lets Primary Admins and Admins of teams with SSO enabled know what's been happening in their Enterprise Team.
In the Activity tab, you'll find options to view, filter and export activity data for your enterprise team's users.
While many admins don't actively create surveys, we've found it's helpful for admins to understand the survey building process, too. Continue to the next section to explore resources about creating and sharing surveys, collecting survey responses and analyzing data in SurveyMonkey.
SurveyMonkey makes it easy to create a survey from scratch or from a template.
Get a head start by using a template designed by our team of survey experts. Use the dropdown menu to browse templates by type to find the right survey for you. If you're on a team, you can also browse your team survey templates.
Or try our Build it for me option which helps you create a survey designed to meet your goals. To get started, answer a few simple questions about you and your survey goals.

If your Enterprise team has Divisions, you may also have access to division libraries with additional survey controls.
We have some great ways you can work with other people on surveys, allowing you and everyone in your team to build advanced surveys and use all our collaboration features to seamlessly share surveys or manage access to different sections of a survey.
For example, if you want others to be notified about results of a survey you've created - whether they're on your team or outside of it, you can share daily summary notifications.
You can also share surveys with others to get feedback on your survey design or results. Explore the sections below for more details on how to share your survey.
You can share surveys with people on or outside your team if you have an Enterprise account. When a survey is shared, people are granted permissions to each section of the survey.
Each team member's seat type determines the default access level assigned to them. But survey owners may be able to edit someone's survey permissions or stop sharing at anytime, depending on your team's settings.
When a survey is shared with people outside your team, the most access they can have is View Only.
Your surveys are private to your account unless:
At any time, you can check whether your surveys are shared along with who they're shared with.
You can invite others to give feedback on your survey design by sharing your survey preview link or sending an invite to comment.
Anyone can test your survey and those signed into a SurveyMonkey account may be able to post comments but only the survey owner can invite people to the preview by email or turn commenting on to gather feedback.
Once you have survey responses, you can create a shared data page so others can view your data and give feedback on survey results.
Once your survey design is ready to go, click Collect Responses to create a collector and send your survey. Any collectors you create can be managed from your collector list.
There are various ways to send your survey and collect responses:
Collector Type | Description |
Web Link | Create a URL or QR code linking to your survey so you can send or post your survey anywhere you want. |
Email Invitation | Send customized email invitations to your contacts through SurveyMonkey to track who responds and send follow-up emails. |
Social Media | Post your survey on Facebook, Twitter, or LinkedIn. |
Facebook Messenger | Let people take your survey directly in Facebook Messenger. People chat with the SurveyMonkey bot to answer the survey and the responses are recorded in SurveyMonkey. |
Target Audience | If you don’t have your own list of survey takers to get the feedback you need, you can buy responses through SurveyMonkey Audience. |
Website | Embed your survey or show a pop-up invitation to your survey on your website. |
Manual Data Entry | Input responses collected offline or add responses for someone without an internet connection. |
Mobile SDK | Get a survey hash used by app developers to add surveys to iOS or Android apps. |
Field Survey | Collect responses without an internet connection through the SurveyMonkey Anywhere app. |
Text Message | Text your contacts a link to your survey. Survey takers can tap the link to take your survey in their mobile browser. |
The first time you set up a collector for a survey, you may be prompted with suggestions for specific collector types or asked to narrow down how you want to send your survey. To view all collector types, click See more ways to collect responses or Send surveys your way.
As part of an Enterprise team, you may also have access to advanced collector options like sending a survey via text message.
Using our Analyze view, you can see a summary view of your data; browse individual responses; create and export dynamic charts; use filter, compare, and show rules to analyze specific data views and segments; view and categorize open-ended responses, and easily download your results in multiple formats.
In addition to our built-in visualization tools, as part of an Enterprise team, you have access to features like Response Quality which uses machine learning to scan your survey results and flag poor-quality responses.
If your team already has established data analysis workflows or tools you prefer, SurveyMonkey gives you options to export your data in several formats such as:
You can also use our export tools to create custom charts of your data and download them to your computer or share them online.
