Make the survey to the point, and 4 or 5 questions maximum.
I get surveys every now and then from other software companies... if it's only a few specific questions, I always try to answer. When companies send 50 question surveys with a dozen multiple-choice must-answer questions, I bail.

Obviously, anything "faster" or "better" is always welcome, but if the technology is only beneficial to stores with >10k skus, then that should be taken into consideration.

Thanks for asking.
