# Surveys

## What is it for?

The **Surveys** screen lists the satisfaction and feedback surveys you show to guests and shows their results. A survey can open on the Wi-Fi login screen, or go to the guest as a link by SMS / WhatsApp. It can send satisfied guests on to review sites such as Google. Product rating questions also appear as star badges on your digital menu.

If you are setting up a new survey, go to [Creating a survey](/books/bumerang-guide/page/creating-a-survey). This page covers reading the list and a survey's results, and exporting them.

## When do you use it?

- When you want to follow guest satisfaction (NPS, star rating).
- When you want to read the comments guests wrote.
- When you need survey results as Excel, CSV or PDF.

## Before you start

- Surveys are part of the Bumerang marketing package. Without it the screen says "Marketing Module Inactive": "A Marketing Pro license upgrade is required to use surveys, Google Review redirection and guest satisfaction measurement tools. Please contact your reseller."
