Creating a new survey
In Snap XMP Desktop there are two types of survey; online surveys and offline surveys.
- Online surveys
- Offline surveys
Online surveys are surveys that are available in both Snap XMP Desktop and Snap XMP Online. They can be organised in folders that are shown in both applications. The online surveys are kept up to date and the response data synchronized between the two applications.
Offline surveys are surveys that are available in Snap XMP Desktop only.
