Filtering

What is this?

For any report or export that we have, our filtering feature allows you to filter responses by how a survey taker responds to a particular answer, their response status, a date range, their response ID number, and even what campaign they took their survey on.

How do I use this?

Sometimes you have quite a bit of data, and there are really specific things you’re looking to get out of it. Filtering can help you really narrow down your survey taker’s answers, and not have to weed through the rest of the information you may not need at the moment.

An example of using this would be if you only wanted to see those responses that said they were male. As long as you asked that question, you would be able to create a filter that only shows how males responded to your survey in any type of report.

What should I avoid?

It’s always best to avoid filtering with too many criteria. It’s fine if you really want to get a specific response, but sometimes you may find that adding too many criteria at once may limit you from seeing the big picture. It’s good practice to run multiple reports and exports with several combinations of filters so you can see the data from different perspectives.

Can I see the Filter interface?

Of course! Inside of each one of our reports and exports, the following information is available in each filter tab:
