Frequently Asked Questions
How is this different from Google Forms?
ArkForms is built for serious research - statistical analysis, offline collection, multi-language support, and compliant with ethical review boards. Google Forms is great for simple surveys, but lacks the analytical depth and research features needed for academic and professional research.
Will it handle large datasets?
Yes - tested with 100k+ responses. Our cloud-native architecture scales automatically to handle datasets of any size while maintaining fast performance for analysis and reporting.
