Hi, I was wondering which FOSS options have you used for online surveys and how was your experience using them, which ones would you recommend?

How are you defining 'large scale surveys'?

There were no scale restrictions on V1 when I used it, how is V2 restricted?

From the Limesurvey features page:

LimeSurvey 2.x currently offers:

Unlimited number of surveys at the same time

Unlimited number of questions in a survey (only limited by your database)

Unlimited number of participants to a survey

Was about half a year back for a school survey. 6 - 10 participants and 1-5 survey lists. So it wasn't even that much, but at some point I reached a limit.

So not even that big of scale but it still came up

The limit you reached seems to be at odds with the Limesurvey docs.

I haven't used Limesurvey recently to know if it works at large scale without restrictions, maybe someone else can weigh in.

Maybe but it's still what I experienced 🤷
