What is Survey Optimizer?
Survey Optimizer from Smart Facility Software supports your quality assurance efforts for Joint Commission compliance, black light inspections and patient satisfaction. The online software lets you easily build any survey on your desktop and conduct it in the field on your mobile device. It can be integrated with your ES Optimizer data and automatically sends completed survey data to your desktop for easy reporting.
The Survey Optimizer Dashboard
Survey Optimzier has always had comprehensive reporting capabilities where you can design and run reports on system usage and survey results. But, now your data is also available for quick viewing at the click of a button in the new Dashboard.
Dashboard Features Include:
- Ensure departments are completing surveys on a regular basis with built-in system usage graphs.
- Create custom survey results graphs for instant viewing on the dashboard.
- Export your graphs from the dashboard to be used in PowerPoint, Word or Excel.
- Filter data by date range. Choose from 3 months, 6 months, Current Year or select a custom date range.
- Filter each graph on the dashboard individually by employee and/or date range.
- Create different dashboards for each department.
Here’s how it works!

The Survey Graph Designer will appear.
Select the user group and the list of available surveys will appear.
Check the box next to the survey for which you’d like to create a graph.
