Features and usage
What is Suggestion Ox?
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!
Who uses this?
Over 60,000 companies, associations and government agencies worldwide. Everyone from the Fortune 500 to solo entrepreneurs.
How does it work?
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.
How do I know when I receive feedback?
We'll send you an email (unless you disable notifications).
How do I share feedback with other managers or leaders?
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.
Is it really anonymous?
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.
Can I respond to suggestions?
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.
Is there a way to share the best suggestions with my organization?
Yes! You get a private, password-protectable website for your team where you can choose to share any suggestion along with your response.
How can I customize my box?
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.
Why would I want more than one box?
Many companies set up individual boxes per department, per manager, per location, or per topic (for instance suggestions vs violations reporting).
What devices do you support?
Suggestion Ox is web- and mobile-friendly and works from any device. Although it probably won't work from a smart refrigerator.
You bet we do. Choose any annual plan and enjoy 15% savings. Wow!
How about educational or nonprofit discounts?
Yep. Just drop a note to support@suggestionox.com and we'll take care of you. Sometimes we give discounts just because we think your organization is doing cool or helpful things. We're nice.
What payment methods do you accept?
We take credit cards, ACH/wire transfer, or good old-fashioned paper checks sent through the mail. Hit us up at support@suggestionox.com if you need to arrange a non-card payment.
Can you invoice me?
Sure can! Email us at support@suggestionox.com and let us know your exact requirements. We know some companies need our W-9 and other info. We got ya covered.
Can we get a longer trial?
For sure. Sometimes you need more time to test things out. Sometimes your accounts payable department is slow. We never want you to feel rushed, so just drop a note support@suggestionox.com if you need a trial or payment extension.
Which currencies do you accept?
We can accept payment in most world currencies. Just drop a note to our sales team to arrange payment in your preferred currency.
