The short version

  • Only QuestionPro has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: QuestionPro team Edition has a five-seat minimum, so a small team that only needs two or three licences still pays for five.; Swydo pricing by data source punishes agencies with many small clients: forty clients on two connections each costs more than the headline EUR 69 suggests, and the per-source rate only starts falling after ten sources.
  • They diverge on capability: QuestionPro covers Survey builder, Swydo covers Multi-platform connectors.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 1 September 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

QuestionPro

  • Team Edition has a five-seat minimum, so a small team that only needs two or three licences still pays for five.
  • CX, Workforce and Research Suite are effectively separate products with their own pricing and onboarding, not tiers of the same subscription, which complicates a multi-department rollout.
  • The free Essentials plan caps at 200 responses per survey, which a single moderately popular customer survey can exceed in days.
  • The interface is denser than Typeform or SurveyMonkey, and teams that want a fast, visually simple survey builder often find QuestionPro slower to set up.
  • Enterprise CX and Research Suite pricing is never published, so budgeting for a programme rollout requires a sales conversation before any commitment is possible.

Swydo

  • Pricing by data source punishes agencies with many small clients: forty clients on two connections each costs more than the headline EUR 69 suggests, and the per-source rate only starts falling after ten sources.
  • There is no data warehouse or SQL layer, so any calculation the interface does not offer natively cannot be built, and complex attribution reporting has to happen elsewhere.
  • Historical data lives with the connection, so removing a departed client destroys the reporting history for that account unless it was exported first.
  • The connector list is around forty sources and skews to mainstream ad platforms, so agencies serving niche verticals with bespoke platforms will still need manual data entry or Google Sheets bridges.
  • Report design is template-driven rather than free-form, so agencies that sell on the polish of their deliverables often find they cannot match a designed InDesign or Canva output.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

QuestionPro: Is the free plan actually usable long-term?

Yes. Essentials has no time limit, but it caps at 200 responses per survey and one user, which rules it out for anything with meaningful reach.

Swydo: Does Swydo charge per client?

No. Clients, users and reports are unlimited. You pay a base fee plus a per-data-source charge above ten sources.

QuestionPro: Is QuestionPro CX the same product as the survey builder?

No. CX is a separate product built for closed-loop customer experience programmes, priced and sold on its own.

Swydo: What is a data source?

One authenticated connection to one platform for one account, so one client with Google Ads and GA4 is two sources.

QuestionPro: Does Team Edition have a minimum seat count?

Yes, five seats at roughly $83 per user per month billed annually, so the minimum monthly spend is around $415.

Swydo: Is there a free plan?

No, only a fourteen day trial. Billing starts at EUR 69 per month.

Swydo: Can clients log in themselves?

Yes, clients get live dashboard access at no extra seat cost.
