How the question count relates to frequency
All selected questions are sent in every round, so think about how many questions your employees can comfortably answer in one sitting.
We recommend the following number of questions based on how often the survey runs:
- Quarterly: up to 30 questions
- Every four months: up to 35 questions
- Every six months: up to 45 questions
-
Yearly: up to 60 questions
💡 Fixed question order
Periodic surveys always send questions in the same fixed order: standard first, then supplemental, then custom. Every employee gets the same set of questions in the same order, with no rotation.
