# SurveyMonkey vs SMS Storetraffic

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: SMS Storetraffic at none against SurveyMonkey's 10. SMS Storetraffic also leads on iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.1). SurveyMonkey's advantage is ratings volume (2.8K vs 28) and review sentiment (41% vs 33%). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. SurveyMonkey sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $15.99 per month. SMS Storetraffic asks for nothing beyond the download.

SurveyMonkey holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SurveyMonkey has 2.8K ratings behind it against 28, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 41% of SurveyMonkey's written reviews are positive against 33% of SMS Storetraffic's.
