General
LimeSurvey allows users to quickly create intuitive, powerful, online question-and-answer surveys that can work for tens to thousands of participants without much effort. The survey software itself is self-guiding for the respondents who are participating. This manual is thus focused at how to install the application, administer the installation, and support survey creators, administrators and report generation users alike.
There has been a big ramp-up in development the last few years leading to many new features and changes. Make sure to upgrade to the latest version to make use of the capabilities highlighted here.
