Zoomerang is an online survey authoring and tabulating tool with various capabilities depending upon the price the user is willing to pay. The free "Zoomerang Basic" version allows the user to create a survey with no more than 30 questions, receive no more than 100 responses, and view the results for a limited time. ["Tapping Into Your Customers' Brainwaves" by John R. Hall, "Air Conditioning, Heating & Refrigeration News", July 9, 2007, page 9.] The pay versions permit larger numbers of questions, more complex sorting of results as well as the ability to export them, and adding the user's own branding rather than Zoomerang's. ["Zooming in on Customers" by Alan Horowitz. "Sales and Marketing Management", November 2004, page 21.] Related market-research services are also available.
