European Alternatives to SurveyMonkey

Looking for a European alternative to SurveyMonkey? Surveys collect exactly the data GDPR was written about — opinions, health information, employee feedback, and special-category data collected by accident — and SurveyMonkey is a US processor holding the responses.

These European tools store responses in the EU, and two of them can be self-hosted so responses never reach a third party at all.

Frequently Asked Questions

Typeform is widely considered the best European alternative to SurveyMonkey. Based in Spain, it offers conversational forms with the best completion rates in the category. Other strong options include Tally and LimeSurvey.

Yes. Every provider on this page is established in the EU, the UK or Switzerland, which means GDPR (or its UK and Swiss equivalents) applies to them directly rather than through standard contractual clauses. In practice that gives you an EU-law data processing agreement, EU data residency and a supervisory authority you can actually complain to.

SurveyMonkey is headquartered in San Mateo, California, so the data it processes falls under US jurisdiction and can be reached through instruments such as the CLOUD Act regardless of which region you select. A European provider keeps processing under EU law, removes the transfer impact assessment from your compliance workload, and keeps the money inside the European technology economy.

This page compares 7 of them, chosen for European establishment, GDPR compliance and genuine feature parity rather than for being merely available in Europe. See our full survey tools category for the wider list.
