SurveyJS helps enterprises keep sensitive data secure
Whether you are from the education or healthcare sector, human resources, or anything in between—collecting sensitive data can become a maintenance nightmare, since you, as a survey creator, must guarantee anonymity and privacy to respondents (very often—to thousands of them) in order to remain legally compliant and ensure honest answers.
So the software you use to create and host surveys needs to be more than just a third-party, black-box SaaS platform where you’re locked in to too many dependencies, and locked out of engagement, monitoring, and improvement of the actual service because of intellectual property laws.
Even when surveys are conducted anonymously and with informed consent, you are not off the hook.
Even if you store only aggregated data, small sample sizes could inadvertently identify an individual, leading to adverse consequences. Also, most countries have laws governing the storage and security of collected data (HIPAA, FERPA, GDPR), meaning that you are liable for any stored personal information in your custody—including its secure destruction at the end of the retention period, with proof.
The easiest way to ensure individual privacy and legal compliance is to self-host SurveyJS. You would run surveys and store responses completely within your own infrastructure, thus being in total control of data flow between server and client without any third-party involved.
Self-hosting a SurveyJS solution grants you true freedom, and makes long-term planning not only possible, but also viable.

Frequently Asked Questions
What type of licensing model do you offer?
SurveyJS is free at the base and offers a perpetual developer-based licensing model for the Creator, PDF Generator and Dashboard libraries, meaning you can make a one-time payment and use the software indefinitely.
We provide access to the latest product versions and technical support on a subscription basis. A subscription lasts for a 12-month period (of the original purchase date, or of the latest renewal date). You get permanent access to the versions released within this period.
How do I decide on the number of licenses needed for my team? Do I purchase a license for each developer or is one per team sufficient?
We license our software development products on a per-developer basis.
You must purchase a commercial license(s) for software developer(s) who will be working with the SurveyJS products' APIs and implementing their integration.
You are not required to purchase developer licenses for your project colleagues that work on its different functional modules, and only use the libraries as dependencies to compile and build the project.
How does SurveyJS support integration with backend solutions and user management systems?
We do not offer backend solutions or data storage. SurveyJS provides and supports client-side JavaScript libraries for building surveys and forms, which can be integrated with any server or database of your choice. Our libraries are available for Angular, React, Vue3, and vanilla JavaScript, allowing you to fully control your backend and data.
SurveyJS does not access, store, or track any data. You will need to develop your own backend, and manage your data independently.
Additionally, if you need an approval mechanism—for instance, where one user creates a form and another reviews and approves it before publishing—this logic must be implemented on your server side. Our libraries provide the front-end UI and give you full flexibility to handle user authentication or management however you prefer. They work seamlessly with any backend logic you develop.
For backend integration examples, you can refer to our resources here:
This setup ensures you have full control over your data, user management, and server-side code, without any limitations from SurveyJS.
Am I allowed to use SurveyJS libraries in SaaS solutions?
YES. The license holder can deploy their license(s) to any web server or cloud for use in their web applications, including SaaS (Software as a Service) applications. However, such applications cannot compete with SurveyJS libraries (software development products) by offering a tool for developers to build their own form management system using the same codebase. Please refer to Paragraph 5 of the END-USER LICENSE AGREEMENT for further details.
Does the Enterprise plan come with unlimited developer licenses?
Our Enterprise plan is not unlimited—the cost is based on the number of developers who will be using the SurveyJS API and handling the integration. Pricing also depends on the specific libraries you require, whether it's just the Creator or a combination of Creator, Analytics, and PDF. It's important to note that we do not offer ready-to-use integration services directly. Therefore, you will need an in-house development team, and we will provide assistance during the implementation process. The Enterprise plan is ideal for those who require extensive consultation services, including code reviews, integration support, best practices, and urgent bug fixes. However, if you don't require those additional services and are comfortable receiving support through our Help Desk (available to all license holders), the Basic or PRO plan might be a better fit.
