# Question Types in Surveys

Whatfix enables you to add seven types of questions to a Survey. Choose a question type based on your use case.

Note:

Question types can be edited only as part of the Premium Plan. For more information, see [Whatfix Pricing](https://whatfix.com/pricing/).

**Text box - single line**

A single line text box question type enables your respondents to write a short, one-line answer to a question. ![CLM_Survey_Singleline](https://cdn.document360.io/a268766e-d74d-4619-9613-e2472f809ffb/Images/Documentation/CLM_Survey_Singleline.png)

**Text box - multi line**

A multi line text box question type enables your respondents to write detailed answers in multiple lines. ![](https://cdn.document360.io/a268766e-d74d-4619-9613-e2472f809ffb/Images/Documentation/CLM_Survey_Multiline.png)

**Opinion scale**

The opinion scale question type enables your respondents to rate their experience. Either add a 5-point scale or a 7-point scale.

Add a **Start label** and an **End label**. For example, the Start label can be **Very Satisfied** and the End label can be **Very Dissatisfied**. ![clm_survey_mulitple choice qt](https://cdn.document360.io/a268766e-d74d-4619-9613-e2472f809ffb/Images/Documentation/CLM_Survey_opinionscale.png)

The Net Promoter Score (NPS) enables your respondents to rate their experience of the product. This helps you understand user satisfaction and gauge how likely they are to promote your product. ![clm_survey_NPS survey_qt](https://cdn.document360.io/a268766e-d74d-4619-9613-e2472f809ffb/Images/Documentation/CLM_Survey_NPS.png)
