Hi there, congrats on finishing while having a full time job! As someone who recently used SurveyMonkey and hated it, I really wanted to like it, but it was bit laggy and the UI was confusing at times. Also allowing only 10 responses in free trial makes it very limiting.

Hi, thank you for the feedback. Can you let me know where the UI was lagging especially? And what do you think the free trial should look like? Mainly, would you pay for the product in this stage if the UI was better? Thanks again!
Perhaps laggy is not the right term, but rather not pleasant. For example the lack of padding for text with background: https://app.daspoll.com/user/main/survey/d1356eb9-5dd5-4170-.... It was just hard to read.

And when I clicked 'Saved', it took long enough for me to think was it broken? There were no spinners or any visual feedback. So it was bit of UI and UX issues.

I don't know what the limitations of SurveyMonkey were, but it was generous enough I didn't have to pay for it. I send occasional survey for my business: https://toolwallhq.com, but not nearly enough I couldn't use SurveyMonkey. I think my last survey got <100 responses.

I see you are already using tailwind, recommend upgrading to tailwindui and improving from there.
