Introduction

Note: LimeSurvey PRO is now LimeSurvey Cloud.


Avant de commencer la discussion sur LimeSurvey PRO (LimeSurvey Cloud) et LimeSurvey CE (LimeSurvey Community Edition), il est important de comprendre la différence entre LimeSurvey et LimeSurvey GmbH. Le premier fait référence au logiciel basé sur un serveur Web distribué librement sous la licence GNU Général Public License v2 (GPL v2). Le second fait référence à la société qui a été mise sur pied autour du logiciel LimeSurvey afin de mieux coordonner son développement et de fournir différents services payants LimeSurvey (par exemple hébergement, modèles personnalisés, packages complémentaires, support technique, etc.).

LimeSurvey refers to the web server-based software that is freely distributed under the GNU General Public License v2 (GPL v2) and above.

LimeSurvey GmbH refers to the company that was built around the LimeSurvey software in order to better coordinate its development and provide various LimeSurvey paid services (e.g., hosting, personalized templates, add-on packages, technical support, etc.).

Pour en savoir plus sur la licence de LimeSurvey, suivez ce lien: https://www.limesurvey.org/about-limesurvey/license.

En raison de sa licence, LimeSurvey est un [logiciel open source] [1] pouvant être utilisé, modifié et distribué à des fins commerciales, privées et éducatives par quiconque. 'À l'exception du nom et du logo qui sont des marques déposées' , le logiciel peut être utilisé de n'importe quelle manière. Par exemple, l’utilisation de LimeSurvey pour créer et distribuer des questionnaires concernant l’évaluation d’une classe universitaire ou d’un professeur, ou pour l’installer sur un serveur personnel et mener une étude marketing en ligne / hors ligne pour la société dans laquelle vous travaillez.

LimeSurvey est un logiciel open source. Cela signifie que son code est entièrement divulgué. Pour y accéder, il vous suffit de suivre ce lien vers GitHub: https://github.com/LimeSurvey/LimeSurvey

Pour installer LimeSurvey sur votre ordinateur personnel (pour des raisons de développement) ou sur votre serveur, vous devez répondre à un ensemble minimal d’exigences afin que LimeSurvey soit opérationnel. Pour une explication détaillée, étape par étape de la procédure d'installation de LimeSurvey, lisez notre guide d'installation.

Cependant, certains d'entre vous pourraient considérer le processus d'installation comme une tâche fastidieuse. De plus, des connaissances en administration de serveur peuvent être nécessaires pour éviter les blocages éventuels. Par conséquent, LimeSurvey GmbH propose différents services fondés sur les capacités du logiciel LimeSurvey et les besoins des utilisateurs. Par exemple, LimeSurvey GmbH propose services d'hébergement PRO afin d'aider les utilisateurs à fournir un accès direct à une installation LimeSurvey en cours d'exécution.



Régulièrement, vous rencontrerez des termes comme services d'hébergement , logiciel auto-hébergé , et serveur personnel mentionnés dans cette section du wiki. Nous suggérons ce post de notre blog afin de mieux comprendre les informations relatives à l'hébergement.

What do I need?

There is a lot of information to grasp. We are completely aware of this and you might feel a bit overwhelmed. We suggest you do a cost-benefit analysis. Some aspects that are worth taking into consideration:

  • Capital: Think of the costs of running a server for example. Even though a lot of low-cost hosting providers can be found online, take into account that you have to take care not only of your LimeSurvey installation, but also of the server configuration. If you want to create more complex surveys and/or install/create additional plugins, employees with knowledge in PHP, HTML, CSS will be needed - which means higher costs for you and your business.
  • Human resources: If complex surveys are created, employees with IT-related skills might be needed. That is why it is better (sometimes) to outsource such services. You may use our LimeSurvey Cloud services or the help provided by our official partners.
  • Time: Time is a limited resource. Different time-related constraints (e.g., deadlines, lots of qualitative research requests from your clients, etc.) transform time into an important independent variable that should definitely influence your final decision.

Think of all your possible needs and available resources before choosing between LimeSurvey Cloud and LimeSurvey CE.

Generally, if you want to use LimeSurvey without any download or configuration, you should choose LimeSurvey Cloud. You can test it freely as long as you want and then purchase one of the subscription plans. However, if you have a running server infrastructure and want to integrate LimeSurvey into that, take a look at LimeSurvey CE. We also offer great LimeSurvey CE plans to enhance your installation with one-click updates and more custom themes.

What if I still have questions?

We have an extremely helpful community. You are more than welcome to post your questions and/or thoughts on our LimeSurvey forums or Discord channel:
