Google Forms is a free software available to Google users that allows you to make surveys. You can create surveys with multiple choice questions, short answer questions, questions with dropdown choices, and more.
It's a great way to collect and organize information as data collected by Google Forms is automatically uploaded into a spreadsheet where the creator and any collaborators can view the data. You can use it to gather email addresses for a newsletter, collect RSVPs for an event, and so on.
