Survey Questions

Question 1: Please tell us about yourself. Are you

Comments :

  • The objective of this question was to find out the profile of the people participating in Community Day.
  • The question was phrased specifically to identify End Users and Contributors as the previous community survey indicated the community profile was largely integrator based. Attracting more contributors and End Users is a key goal for the project.
  • Only one response was allowed.

Conclusions :

  • The majority of respondents fell into the category of End User, Contributor and Integrator. This was expected based on the results of previous surveys showing a high integrator base.

Comments :

  • The objective of this question was to understand which versions of OFBiz our respondents were running.

Conclusions :

  • The main version being used was the Trunk, followed by 17.12. This is interesting because these are unreleased versions that offer the most up to date functionality.
