If you wish to have multiple users access/share/manage one or more surveys, please familiarize yourself with the sharing options in this article: https://help.surveymonkey.com/articles/en_US/kb/Sharing-Surveys.

Can I bring my existing SurveyMonkey account into the UVic Enterprise group?

If you have an existing SurveyMonkey account under the UVic domain, you will need to create a new account under the Enterprise group.

Please follow the steps below:

  1. Change the address on your existing SurveyMonkey account to a personal email address.
