Free SharePoint Research Data!

Several years ago when Bamboo Solutions decided to focus on developing SharePoint Web Parts as our main product (you can read the history here), we set up a bunch of daily polls to survey our visitors on how they use SharePoint in their environment.  The polls has been running for more than 16 months, so there are a number of interesting data points that you can observe.  This has been one of the key data that we use to develop the "right" products for our 4000+ customers.

To see the SharePoint polls, go to our web site at this address: http://store.bamboosolutions.com/Polls.aspx.  Or select "Share-Polls" on the left navigation pane on our web site.

 

If you have not voted, you will be asked to vote before you can see the results.  Vote for each poll individually and you will be able to see the result of that particular survey.  OK – so it’s not entirely free, but it’s a small price to pay to see how other hundreds and thousands of our visitors uses SharePoint in the past year or so.  Here are two free poll results to get you excited and participate:

We will be publishing more surveys in the near future in this Bamboo Nation community site.  With a large number of customers and significant traffic on our site, we hope to be able to capture and provide some of the data for us to share.  Is there any particular survey that you would like to see?  Please leave us a comment.

Are you in need of similar functionality as shown in Lam's blog above in your SharePoint environment?  Is the SharePoint out of the box survey list just not satisfactory?  Let Bamboo Solutions help!

Check out Bamboo's SharePoint Poll Web Part (store.bamboosolutions.com/pfi-70-sharepoint-poll-web-part.aspx)!  The SharePoint Poll Web Part allows you to quickly create polling questions and answers, graphical display of results and the ability to export the results to Excel.

Give it whirl!  Remember, all our products come with 15 day full functional trials.  So what you got to loose. :-)

Hi there, I was hoping to somehow get hold of the survey content as the page linked up here is empty. I need this for academic purposes. I am doing my university dissertation on SharePoint. Many thanks.
