Make SurveyGizmo 50x Faster–Use Firefox!

Posted by Filed in: Misc, Survey Best Practices

“Thank you, thank you, thank you!” wrote one of our customers after we recommended he use the Firefox browser for his survey work this week.

At over 200 pages and growing, his survey is one of the longest surveys ever created in SurveyGizmo.

Using Internet Explorer 6 on a 4-year-old computer, he had to wait more than 5 minutes-that’s 300 seconds!-to open the Reorder Questions page in the survey editor.

After switching to Firefox version 3.0, it took only 6 seconds to open that page.

From 300 seconds to 6 seconds is 50 times faster!

This just goes to show how choosing the right tools for the job makes life so much easier. Whether it’s using the right browser or the right online survey software-making the right choice can make a big difference.

We congratulate our customer on pushing the limits of SurveyGizmo with his huge survey. He says he is going for the “GFWRFLSGS Award = Going For a World Record for Length of a SurveyGizmo Survey.”

Thanks to Firefox, he will get there 50 times faster!

If you would like to try Firefox, download it from the Mozilla website.
