Crazy Egg, the original creator of the on-site popup survey

Would you believe us if we told you that Surveys was actually conceived 14 years ago? Flashback to 2009: We launched KISSinsights as a sister tool to KISSmetrics. We ended up selling it to Sean Ellis, who rebranded it to Qualaroo and grew it into the behemoth that it is today.

Fast forward to today… we couldn’t help but notice that all these companies providing the same on-site surveying capabilities we pioneered were all moving upmarket and greatly limiting what people got for free.

We believe everyone deserves an on-site surveying tool that can be used by anyone, for free, no matter how many page views or responses you get.
