LimeSurvey (formerly PHPSurveyor) is a free and open source online statistical survey web app written in PHP using a MySQL, SQLite, PostgreSQL or MSSQL database, distributed under the GNU General Public License. Its web interface enables users to develop and publish online surveys, collect responses, review statistics, and export the resulting data to other applications.

==History== LimeSurvey was registered as a SourceForge.net project called PHPSurveyor on February 20, 2003 and was originally written by the Australian software developer Jason Cleeland. The first public release, version 0.93, was published on March 5, 2003. The project quickly developed a large audience of users after the development of advanced features such as branching (conditions), token control and templating.
