I can highly recommend the platform Survey Circle for academic surveys. Jonas Johé and his team have developed a modern and fair solution that allows you to reliably find participants for your academic work—whether it’s for a bachelor's, master's thesis, or doctoral thesis. Thanks to Survey Circle, I was able to gather enough participants for my doctoral research in a short amount of time, significantly accelerating my research process. The principle is simple: you participate in the academic surveys of other researchers on Survey Circle, earn points, and thereby rank your own survey higher. It's a genuine win-win situation for everyone involved! Jonas and his team are incredibly helpful, always reachable, and provide comprehensive support. This platform is particularly recommended for those who have already contacted all possible participants within their own network and are urgently seeking more. In my opinion, Survey Circle is an indispensable resource for any academic study. A great tool and a fantastic team—keep up the good work!

A great site for finding participants for the study. I was having trouble reaching the required number of participants. Luckily, someone recommended SurveyCircle to me. The site is easy to use. It takes a little time for your study to reach the top spots in the rankings, but it’s worth the effort. Within two weeks, I already had about 200 participants. I wouldn’t have been able to do that without SurveyCircle. Plus, the support is great. I was able to increase my participant count in no time. A big thank you to everyone—I’d be happy to use it again :)

Highly recommended Thanks to SurveyCircle, I was able to quickly recruit participants for my study as part of my thesis. The upgrades are well structured and genuinely fairly priced, especially for students. After contacting support by email, my unusable datasets were quickly compensated, and the communication with the support team was really friendly. Highly recommended!

Overall, I had a really good experience and found SurveyCircle very helpful. Some things to be aware of if you're thinking about using it: (1) there are things you can do that will have a significant impact on how many survey responses you get (e.g. some of the biggest ones are that you do need to take a lot of other people's surveys and get a lot of points before you start getting a lot of responses coming in, and also if your survey's too long, it's likely to get less responses); and (2) you will get some responses where people clearly answered very hastily and didn't fill it out properly (e.g. straight-lining scales in your survey), so you should probably have clear-cut criteria ready to use to exclude certain survey responses for when people have clearly just sped through it without answering it properly, which would screw up the validity of your study if you have enough of those responses in there. So what I would say is that if you're aware of some of the limitations and challenges of SurveyCircle and willing to navigate those, it is worth using for many types of survey and can be a very useful tool. Just go in with your eyes wide open and try to use a strategy to get the most out of it. Also, please, please, please, when you're answering other people's surveys to get points so your survey can get more responses, take the time to do it properly. DON'T just rush through it and not answer properly. Answer it how you'd want people to answer yours. I was saddened by how common it is for people to just rush through the survey in like 2 minutes and not even answer things properly (e.g. straight-lining and stuff like that). Don't be one of those people. If everyone did it like that, the platform would have no usefulness whatsoever. So just answer people's surveys properly.

The website is amazing and genuine! I’ve been collecting data for over a year, and once I made an account on survey circle (and filled other’s surveys consistently) I’ve gained more than a hundred responses in less than a month!! Wish I knew it sooner.
Survey circle was extremely helpful during data collection for my thesis. I'm glad I found it!

Great platform to generate and exchange participants for research surveys. Big pool of available surveys with all important information on one page before starting. SurveyCircle is also free for up to 100 participants and quite cheap afterwards for additional slots. They have helped me big time with my master thesis. Would definitely recommend!

Great way to gather participants! Working just fine! Even though it could be a little more traffic – but still, it helped me a lot.

This website is very helpful. I highly recommend it if you are in need of participants, a research enthusiast, starting a business, or for educational purposes. It is a fair way to gain participants and contribute to other individual's surveys. It saved me during my dissertation!

A really professional and helpful company who I would recommend to anyone requiring their services. Max in particular was very friendly and always went above and beyond to ensure every concern we had was addressed, even going back to the property for a second visit when unable to access particular areas. I would not hesitate to use in the future.

Great experience advertising my survey on this platform. I managed to recruit 100 participants quite easily, you just need to take a lot of surveys to climb up in the ranking. And I liked the fact you could actually choose which surveys to take part in. One thing that could be improved for data integrity would be to only show users surveys they are actually eligible for, maybe by using a pre-screener, but still great concept. Also, customer service is absolutely superb! Thank you!
