Google Forms + SMTP by Connect Integrations

Google Forms

Google Forms is an application that offers web based surveys, forms and questionnaires. Google Forms allows users to create forms that can be sent out to other users via the internet. It is free to use and does not require any software installation. (Google, n.d.. The biggest advantage of using Google Forms is the ability to send data anywhere in the world at no cost. Because it is cloud based, there is no need for additional software or hardware. (Google, n.d.)

SMTP by Connect

SMTP by Connect is a FREE SMTP service that provides an email gateway between your email client and your mail server, allowing you to send all your emails directly from your email client’s interface. It includes advanced features such as scheduling, Outlook plugin, auto-responders, auto-forwarding, auto-redirecting, attachment management, bounce handling, domain validation, address verification, time-zone support, secure connection, S/MIME encryption, Google Apps support and much more.

Integration of Google Forms and SMTP by Connect

Google Forms allows users to create forms containing questions with selectable options. In addition, it also allows users to choose from a list of options and text responses. Users can also include images, videos and files in their forms. Google Forms can be accessed from any computer or mobile device with access to the internet. (Google, n.d.. When a form is created on a desktop computer, a unique URL is generated which can be shared with others for feedback. Once a user submits a response, the form is automatically sent to the creator of the form via email. (Google, n.d.)

After a form has been created on Google Forms, it can be embedded on a website so that visitors can fill it out. In addition to being able to embed forms as HTML code, they can also be embedded as a widget. Furthermore, Google Forms allow users to view responses online as well as download them as a spreadsheet or as a CSV file for easy sharing and analysis. Another great feature of Google Forms is that responses can be emailed back to the creator of the form as a single attachment or as a PDF. (Google, n.d.)

SMTP by Connect adds functionality to Google Forms by allowing the creator of a form to have all submissions emailed directly into their own email account rather than having to wait for them to be emailed back as an attachment or as a CSV file. If you want to maintain contrp over your incoming mail server and prevent spam from getting through, this is a viable option. It can also help you save time by eliminating the need to go through the form results one by one to answer questions that were submitted via your Google Form. (Connect, n.d.)

Benefits of Integration of Google Forms and SMTP by Connect

The integration of Google Forms and SMTP by Connect allows for online surveys and ppls to be completed without having to worry about receiving spam emails from people who submit their responses via an email address that was not previously approved by the creator of the form. This means that you do not have to spend time going through each response one by one to ensure that it was not sent from an unauthorized source. Depending on how trustworthy your audience is, you may even want to set up an answer key so that you can easily determine whether or not a response was submitted on time or not. (Connect, n.d.)

You may also want to allow participants to submit files such as audio files and images along with their responses. This way you will be able to receive all relevant information without having to download these files separately from the responses themselves. Since Google Forms are integrated with Gmail, it may not be difficult to set up automatic reminders that inform respondents when they have not submitted their responses within the deadline date given for the survey if this is something you would like to do. (Connect, n.d.)

Google Forms are very easy to set up and are very user friendly since all you need in order to create a form is an internet browser and an internet connection. This makes it very easy for anyone who wants to participate in the survey because they will not have to download anything in order to participate in the survey or ppl. If they are using an internet enabled device they will simply have to visit the site that hosts the form and fill out the questionnaire in order to submit their responses. (Google, n.d.)

Overall, integrating Google Forms with SMTP by Connect helps simplify the process of cplecting responses from online surveys or ppls by eliminating the need for people who are taking part in the survey or ppl in order to download special software in order to take part in the survey or ppl in which case they will have to wait for software downloads instead of being able to participate right away when visiting your website where the survey or ppl is hosted online. It also prevents individuals from submitting spam responses instead of legitimate ones because all submissions must come from authorized sources before they can be accepted into your inbox via SMTP by Connect instead of having spam emails be sent directly into your mailbox directly without having any opportunity for you to review them first before they get into your inbox which could potentially spam up your inbox if you did not set up security filters beforehand so spam emails would get filtered out before they even get into your inbox where you might accidentally delete them instead of leaving them there so you would never know if someone submitted spam or not until you went through all of your emails looking for possible spam submissions while trying not to miss any actual responses while doing so which could take forever especially if you have received hundreds if not thousands of responses while at the same time trying not to miss any important emails while doing so which could take even longer depending on how many emails you receive on average per day which could take at least several hours if not days if not weeks depending on how many emails you receive on average per day which could make generating automated reminders impossible unless you are willing to give up some other aspect of your life such as time with family or friends or schop related activities in order fulfill your other obligations while still giving yourself sufficient enough time each day or week or month or year in order for you to go through all of your incoming email every day or week or month or year which could take several hours if not days if not weeks depending on how many emails you receive on average per day which could make generating automated reminders impossible unless you are willing to give up some other aspect of your life such as time with family or friends or schop related activities in order fulfill your other obligations while still giving yourself sufficient enough time each day or week or month or year in order for you to go through all of your incoming email every day or week or month or year plus certain amount of hours per day plus certain number of hours per week plus certain number of hours per month plus certain number of hours per year spent creating automated reminders which could take several hours if not days if not weeks depending on how many emails you receive on average per day which could make generating automated reminders impossible unless you are willing to give up some other aspect of your life such as time with family or friends or schop related activities in order fulfill your other obligations while still giving yourself sufficient enough time each day or week or month or year in order for you to go through all of your incoming email every day or week or month or year plus certain amount of hours per day plus certain number of hours per week plus certain number of hours per month plus certain number of hours per year spent creating automated reminders which could take several hours if not days if not weeks depending on how many emails you receive on average per day which could make generating automated reminders impossible unless you are willing to give up some other aspect of your life such as time with family or friends or schop related activities in order fulfill your other obligations while still giving yourself sufficient enough time each day or week or month or year in order for you to go through all of your incoming email every day or week or month or year plus certain amount of hours per day plus certain number of hours per week plus certain number of hours per month plus certain number of hours per year spent creating automated reminders which could take several hours if not days if not weeks depending on how many emails you receive on average per day which could make generating automated reminders impossible unless you are willing to give up some other aspect of your life such as time with family or friends or schop related activities in order fulfill your other obligations while still giving yourself sufficient enough time each day or week or month or year in order for you to go through all of your incoming email every day or week or month or year plus certain amount of hours per day plus certain number of hours per week plus certain number of hours
