Features and usage
It’s a web service for easily creating anonymous online suggestion boxes for your company, association or government agency. As an independent service, your employees or customers feel comfortable giving you truly candid feedback. Watch our video to learn more!
Over 60,000 companies, associations and government agencies worldwide. Everyone from the Fortune 500 to solo entrepreneurs.
You get a private, customizable URL for each box that you can share with anyone from whom you're seeking feedback. Optionally password protect your box to make sure only those with the password can submit feedback. Here's way more about how Suggestion Ox works.
We'll send you an email (unless you disable notifications).
You can add additional managers, so they have access to the box, or just set them up to receive suggestions by email. You can also export suggestions and share them using any internal tool you prefer.
Yes, by default we don't collect any identifiable information from those submitting to your box. We believe this is the best way to get truly candid feedback.
Yes, one of the best practices for deploying your online suggestion box is to use our Direct Replies feature. This will include an email field for respondents. If they choose to include their email you will be able to respond back to them through our system. However, we won't share their email address with you, so they remain anonymous (it's encrypted in our database). If they choose not to include their email you can still respond back to them via the unique link that they collect at the time they submit their feedback.
Yes! You get a private, password-protectable website for your team where you can choose to share any suggestion along with your response.
You can set up unlimited fields to capture just the information you want. For instance, you might want to ask respondents for a department or function. You can also customize your box with your company colors and logo.
Many companies set up individual boxes per department, per manager, per location, or per topic (for instance suggestions vs violations reporting).
Suggestion Ox is web- and mobile-friendly and works from any device. Although it probably won't work from a smart refrigerator.
