Avant de commencer la discussion sur LimeSurvey PRO (LimeSurvey Professional) et LimeSurvey CE (LimeSurvey Community Edition), il est important de comprendre la différence entre LimeSurvey et LimeSurvey GmbH. Le premier fait référence au logiciel basé sur un serveur Web distribué librement sous la licence GNU Général Public License v2 (GPL v2). Ce dernier fait référence à la société qui a été construite autour du logiciel LimeSurvey afin de mieux coordonner son développement et de fournir différents services payants LimeSurvey (par exemple, hébergement, modèles personnalisés, packages complémentaires, support technique, etc.).

<div class="simplebox">[[File:help.png]] To read more about the license of LimeSurvey, access the following link: https://www.limesurvey.org/about-limesurvey/license.</div>

En raison de sa licence, LimeSurvey est un <u>[logiciel open source open source] [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki]</u> pouvant être utilisé, modifié et distribué à des fins commerciales, privées et éducatives par quiconque. '' 'À l'exception du nom et du logo qui sont des marques déposées' '', le logiciel peut être utilisé de n'importe quelle manière. Par exemple, l’utilisation de LimeSurvey pour créer et distribuer des questionnaires concernant l’évaluation d’une classe universitaire ou d’un professeur, ou pour l’installer sur un serveur personnel et mener une étude marketing en ligne / hors ligne pour la société dans laquelle vous travaillez.

<div class="simplebox"> [[File: help.png]] LimeSurvey est un logiciel open source. Cela signifie que son code est entièrement divulgué. Pour y accéder, vérifiez le lien GitHub suivant: https://github.com/LimeSurvey/LimeSurvey </div>

Pour installer LimeSurvey sur votre ordinateur personnel (pour des raisons de développement) ou sur votre serveur, vous devez répondre à un ensemble minimal d’exigences afin que LimeSurvey soit opérationnel. Pour une explication détaillée étape par étape de la procédure d'installation de LimeSurvey, lisez notre [[Installation - LimeSurvey CE | guide d'installation]].

Cependant, certains d'entre vous pourraient considérer le processus d'installation comme une tâche fastidieuse. De plus, des connaissances en administration de serveur peuvent être nécessaires pour éviter les blocages éventuels. Par conséquent, LimeSurvey GmbH propose différents services fondés sur les capacités du logiciel LimeSurvey et les besoins des utilisateurs.

=What do I need?=

There is a lot of information to grasp. We are completely aware of this and you might feel a little bit overwhelmed.
We suggest you to do a '''cost-benefit analysis'''. Some aspects that are worth taking into consideration:
*'''Capital:''' think of the costs of running a server for example. Even though a lot of low-cost hosting providers can be found online, take into account that you have to take care not only of your LimeSurvey installation, but also of the server configuration. If you want to create more complex surveys and/or install/create additional plugins, employees with knowledge in PHP, HTML, CSS will be needed - which means higher costs for you and your business.
*'''Human resources''': if complex surveys are created, employees with IT-related skills might be needed. That is why it is better (sometimes) to outsource such services. You may use our LimeSurvey PRO services or the help provided by our official partners.
*'''Time:''' time is a limited resource. Different time-related constraints (e.g. deadlines, lots of qualitative research requests from your clients etc.) transform time into an important independent variable that should definitely influence your final decision.

Think of all your possible needs and available resources before choosing between LimeSurvey PRO and LimeSurvey CE.

Generally, if you want to use LimeSurvey without any download or configuration, use LimeSurvey PRO. You can test it freely as long as you want and then purchase one of the subscription packages. However, if you have a running server infrastructure and want to integrate LimeSurvey into that, take a look at LimeSurvey CE. We also offer great LimeSurvey CE packages to enhance your installation with one-click updates and more custom themes.

=Introduction=

Avant de commencer la discussion sur LimeSurvey PRO (LimeSurvey Professional) et LimeSurvey CE (LimeSurvey Community Edition), il est important de comprendre la différence entre LimeSurvey et LimeSurvey GmbH. Le premier fait référence au logiciel basé sur un serveur Web distribué librement sous la licence GNU Général Public License v2 (GPL v2). Ce dernier fait référence à la société qui a été construite autour du logiciel LimeSurvey afin de mieux coordonner son développement et de fournir différents services payants LimeSurvey (par exemple, hébergement, modèles personnalisés, packages complémentaires, support technique, etc.).

<div class="simplebox">[[File:help.png]] To read more about the license of LimeSurvey, access the following link: https://www.limesurvey.org/about-limesurvey/license.</div>

En raison de sa licence, LimeSurvey est un <u>[logiciel open source open source] [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki]</u> pouvant être utilisé, modifié et distribué à des fins commerciales, privées et éducatives par quiconque. '' 'À l'exception du nom et du logo qui sont des marques déposées' '', le logiciel peut être utilisé de n'importe quelle manière. Par exemple, l’utilisation de LimeSurvey pour créer et distribuer des questionnaires concernant l’évaluation d’une classe universitaire ou d’un professeur, ou pour l’installer sur un serveur personnel et mener une étude marketing en ligne / hors ligne pour la société dans laquelle vous travaillez.

<div class="simplebox"> [[File: help.png]] LimeSurvey est un logiciel open source. Cela signifie que son code est entièrement divulgué. Pour y accéder, vérifiez le lien GitHub suivant: https://github.com/LimeSurvey/LimeSurvey </div>

Cependant, certains d'entre vous pourraient considérer le processus d'installation comme une tâche fastidieuse. De plus, des connaissances en administration de serveur peuvent être nécessaires pour éviter les blocages éventuels.

=Introduction=

Avant de commencer la discussion sur LimeSurvey PRO (LimeSurvey Professional) et LimeSurvey CE (LimeSurvey Community Edition), il est important de comprendre la différence entre LimeSurvey et LimeSurvey GmbH. Le premier fait référence au logiciel basé sur un serveur Web distribué librement sous la licence GNU Général Public License v2 (GPL v2). Ce dernier fait référence à la société qui a été construite autour du logiciel LimeSurvey afin de mieux coordonner son développement et de fournir différents services payants LimeSurvey (par exemple, hébergement, modèles personnalisés, packages complémentaires, support technique, etc.).

<div class="simplebox">[[File:help.png]] To read more about the license of LimeSurvey, access the following link: https://www.limesurvey.org/about-limesurvey/license.</div>

En raison de sa licence, LimeSurvey est un <u>[logiciel open source open source] [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki]</u> pouvant être utilisé, modifié et distribué à des fins commerciales, privées et éducatives par quiconque. '' 'À l'exception du nom et du logo qui sont des marques déposées' '', le logiciel peut être utilisé de n'importe quelle manière. Par exemple, l’utilisation de LimeSurvey pour créer et distribuer des questionnaires concernant l’évaluation d’une classe universitaire ou d’un professeur, ou pour l’installer sur un serveur personnel et mener une étude marketing en ligne / hors ligne pour la société dans laquelle vous travaillez.

<div class="simplebox"> [[File: help.png]] LimeSurvey est un logiciel open source. Cela signifie que son code est entièrement divulgué. Pour y accéder, vérifiez le lien GitHub suivant: https://github.com/LimeSurvey/LimeSurvey </div>

Pour installer LimeSurvey sur votre ordinateur personnel (pour des raisons de développement) ou sur votre serveur, vous devez répondre à un ensemble minimal d’exigences afin que LimeSurvey soit opérationnel. Pour une explication détaillée étape par étape de la procédure d'installation de LimeSurvey, lisez notre [[Installation - LimeSurvey CE | guide d'installation]].

Cependant, certains d'entre vous pourraient considérer le processus d'installation comme une tâche fastidieuse. De plus, des connaissances en administration de serveur peuvent être nécessaires pour éviter les blocages éventuels. Par conséquent, LimeSurvey GmbH propose différents services fondés sur les capacités du logiciel LimeSurvey et les besoins des utilisateurs. Par exemple, [https://www.limesurvey.org/ LimeSurvey GmbH] propose [https://www.limesurvey.org/editions-and-prices/limesurvey-pro/editions-and-prices-professional services d'hébergement PRO] afin d'aider les utilisateurs à fournir un accès direct à une installation LimeSurvey en cours d'exécution.

Let's assume that you have been convinced by '''LimeSurvey CE''' and now you would like to install it on your server. To download LimeSurvey CE, access the '''Resources''' tab from the [https://www.limesurvey.org LimeSurvey] main toolbar and click on the Download option:

The following page will load up:

If you wish to use our hosting services, continue reading the following quick start guide: [[Quick start guide - LimeSurvey 2.50+|LimeSurvey PRO Quick Start Guide]].
*'''LimeSurvey CE''': It allows you to download the LimeSurvey software, archived in different formats and also in an executable file (usually the latest link). Use it if you would like to install LimeSurvey on your own server or on your own computer for personal testing. It is ideal for hands-on people with technical knowledge. You will see that the LimeSurvey CE is divided into stable releases and development releases. For a rock-solid software, go for the stable release. However, if you would like to test new LimeSurvey features and you want help us solve bugs, go for the development release.

<div class='simplebox'> [[File:help.png]] You can also check the following [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oyoq14XpkwA video tutorial] on how to set up a professional account on LimeSurvey.</div>

=What do I need?=

There is a lot of information to grasp. We are completely aware of this and you might feel a little bit overwhelmed.
We suggest you to do a '''cost-benefit analysis'''. Some aspects that are worth taking into consideration:
*'''Capital:''' think of the costs of running a server for example. Even though a lot of low-cost hosting providers can be found online, take into account that you have to take care not only of your LimeSurvey installation, but also of the server configuration. If you want to create more complex surveys and/or install/create additional plugins, employees with knowledge in PHP, HTML, CSS will be needed - which means higher costs for you and your business.
*'''Human resources''': if complex surveys are created, employees with IT-related skills might be needed. That is why it is better (sometimes) to outsource such services. You may use our LimeSurvey PRO services or the help provided by our official partners.
*'''Time:''' time is a limited resource. Different time-related constraints (e.g. deadlines, lots of qualitative research requests from your clients etc.) transform time into an important independent variable that should definitely influence your final decision.

Think of all your possible needs and available resources before choosing between LimeSurvey PRO and LimeSurvey CE.

Generally, if you want to use LimeSurvey without any download or configuration, use LimeSurvey PRO. You can test it freely as long as you want and then purchase one of the subscription packages. However, if you have a running server infrastructure and want to integrate LimeSurvey into that, take a look at LimeSurvey CE. We also offer great LimeSurvey CE packages to enhance your installation with one-click updates and more custom themes.

=What do I need?=

There is a lot of information to grasp. We are completely aware of this and you might feel a little bit overwhelmed.
We suggest you to do a '''cost-benefit analysis'''. Some aspects that are worth taking into consideration:
*'''Capital:''' think of the costs of running a server for example. Even though a lot of low-cost hosting providers can be found online, take into account that you have to take care not only of your LimeSurvey installation, but also of the server configuration. If you want to create more complex surveys and/or install/create additional plugins, employees with knowledge in PHP, HTML, CSS will be needed - which means higher costs for you and your business.
*'''Human resources''': if complex surveys are created, employees with IT-related skills might be needed. That is why it is better (sometimes) to outsource such services. You may use our LimeSurvey PRO services or the help provided by our official partners.
*'''Time:''' time is a limited resource. Different time-related constraints (e.g. deadlines, lots of qualitative research requests from your clients etc.) transform time into an important independent variable that should definitely influence your final decision.

Think of all your possible needs and available resources before choosing between LimeSurvey PRO and LimeSurvey CE.

Generally, if you want to use LimeSurvey without any download or configuration, use LimeSurvey PRO. You can test it freely as long as you want and then purchase one of the subscription packages. However, if you have a running server infrastructure and want to integrate LimeSurvey into that, take a look at LimeSurvey CE. We also offer great LimeSurvey CE packages to enhance your installation with one-click updates and more custom themes.

Avant de commencer la discussion sur LimeSurvey PRO (LimeSurvey Professional) et LimeSurvey CE (LimeSurvey Community Edition), il est important de comprendre la différence entre LimeSurvey et LimeSurvey GmbH. Le premier fait référence au logiciel basé sur un serveur Web distribué librement sous la licence GNU Général Public License v2 (GPL v2). Ce dernier fait référence à la société qui a été construite autour du logiciel LimeSurvey afin de mieux coordonner son développement et de fournir différents services payants LimeSurvey (par exemple, hébergement, modèles personnalisés, packages complémentaires, support technique, etc.).

<div class="simplebox">[[File:help.png]] To read more about the license of LimeSurvey, access the following link: https://www.limesurvey.org/about-limesurvey/license.</div>

En raison de sa licence, LimeSurvey est un <u>[logiciel open source open source] [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki]</u> pouvant être utilisé, modifié et distribué à des fins commerciales, privées et éducatives par quiconque.

We suggest you to do a '''cost-benefit analysis'''. Some aspects that are worth taking into consideration:
*'''Capital:''' think of the costs of running a server for example. Even though a lot of low-cost hosting providers can be found online, take into account that you have to take care not only of your LimeSurvey installation, but also of the server configuration. If you want to create more complex surveys and/or install/create additional plugins, employees with knowledge in PHP, HTML, CSS will be needed - which means higher costs for you and your business.
*'''Human resources''': if complex surveys are created, employees with IT-related skills might be needed. That is why it is better (sometimes) to outsource such services. You may use our LimeSurvey PRO services or the help provided by our official partners.
*'''Time:''' time is a limited resource. Different time-related constraints (e.g. deadlines, lots of qualitative research requests from your clients etc.) transform time into an important independent variable that should definitely influence your final decision.

Think of all your possible needs and available resources before choosing between LimeSurvey PRO and LimeSurvey CE.

Generally, if you want to use LimeSurvey without any download or configuration, use LimeSurvey PRO. You can test it freely as long as you want and then purchase one of the subscription packages. However, if you have a running server infrastructure and want to integrate LimeSurvey into that, take a look at LimeSurvey CE.

=What do I need?=

There is a lot of information to grasp. We are completely aware of this and you might feel a little bit overwhelmed.
We suggest you to do a '''cost-benefit analysis'''. Some aspects that are worth taking into consideration:
*'''Capital:''' think of the costs of running a server for example. Even though a lot of low-cost hosting providers can be found online, take into account that you have to take care not only of your LimeSurvey installation, but also of the server configuration. If you want to create more complex surveys and/or install/create additional plugins, employees with knowledge in PHP, HTML, CSS will be needed - which means higher costs for you and your business.
*'''Human resources''': if complex surveys are created, employees with IT-related skills might be needed. That is why it is better (sometimes) to outsource such services. You may use our LimeSurvey PRO services or the help provided by our official partners.
*'''Time:''' time is a limited resource. Different time-related constraints (e.g. deadlines, lots of qualitative research requests from your clients etc.) transform time into an important independent variable that should definitely influence your final decision.

Think of all your possible needs and available resources before choosing between LimeSurvey PRO and LimeSurvey CE.

Generally, if you want to use LimeSurvey without any download or configuration, use LimeSurvey PRO. You can test it freely as long as you want and then purchase one of the subscription packages. However, if you have a running server infrastructure and want to integrate LimeSurvey into that, take a look at LimeSurvey CE. We also offer great LimeSurvey CE packages to enhance your installation with one-click updates and more custom themes.

Before starting the discussion about '''LimeSurvey PRO''' (LimeSurvey Professional) and '''LimeSurvey CE''' (LimeSurvey Community Edition), it is important to understand the difference between ''LimeSurvey'' and ''LimeSurvey GmbH''. The former refers to the web server-based software that is freely distributed under the [https://www.gnu.org/licenses/old-licenses/gpl-2.0.en.html GNU General Public License v2] (GPL v2). The latter refers to the company that was built around the LimeSurvey software in order to better coordinate its development and provide different LimeSurvey paid services (e.g. hosting, personalized templates, add-on packages, technical support and so on).


<div class="simplebox">[[File:help.png]] To read more about the license of LimeSurvey, access the following link: https://www.limesurvey.org/about-limesurvey/license.</div>


Due to its license, LimeSurvey is an <u>[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_source_software open-source software]</u> that can be used, modified, and distributed for commercial, private, and educational purposes by anyone. '''With the exception of the name and logo which are trademarked''', the software can be used in any desired way. For example, there is no problem in using LimeSurvey in order to create and distribute questionnaires regarding the evaluation of a university class or professor, or to install it on a personal server and conduct online/ offline marketing research for the company you work at.


<div class="simplebox">[[File:help.png]] LimeSurvey is an open-source software. This means that its code is fully disclosed. To access it, check the following GitHub link: https://github.com/LimeSurvey/LimeSurvey</div>


In order to install LimeSurvey on your personal computer (for development reasons) or on your server, a minimal set of requirements needs to be met in order to have LimeSurvey up and running. For an exhaustive step-by-step explanation on how to install LimeSurvey, read our [[Installation - LimeSurvey CE|installation guideline]].


However, some of you might consider the installation process a time-consuming task. Moreover, server administration knowledge might be required in order to avoid possible gridlocks. Hence, LimeSurvey GmbH offers different services built around the capabilities of the LimeSurvey software and the users' needs. For example, [https://www.limesurvey.org/ LimeSurvey GmbH] offers [https://www.limesurvey.org/editions-and-prices/limesurvey-pro/editions-and-prices-professional PRO hosting services] in order to help users provide direct access to an up-and-running LimeSurvey installation.

= De quoi ai-je besoin ?= 


Il y a beaucoup d'informations à saisir. Nous en sommes parfaitement conscients et vous pourriez vous sentir un peu dépassé. Nous vous suggérons de faire une analyse coûts-avantages.

Quelques aspects à prendre en compte:

Budget : pensez aux coûts d'exploitation d'un serveur par exemple. Même si de nombreux fournisseurs d’hébergement peu coûteux peuvent être trouvés en ligne, sachez que vous devez prendre en compte non seulement votre installation de LimeSurvey, mais également la configuration du serveur. Si vous souhaitez créer des enquêtes plus complexes et / ou installer / créer des plugins supplémentaires, des employés ayant des connaissances en PHP, HTML et CSS seront nécessaires - ce qui signifie des coûts plus élevés pour vous et votre entreprise.

Ressources humaines : si des enquêtes complexes sont créées, des employés possédant des compétences en informatique peuvent être nécessaires. C’est pourquoi il est préférable (parfois) d’externaliser de tels services. Vous pouvez utiliser nos services LimeSurvey PRO ou l’aide fournie par nos partenaires officiels.

Temps : le temps est une ressource limitée. Différentes contraintes de temps (par exemple délais, nombreuses demandes de recherche qualitative de la part de vos clients, etc...) transforment le temps en une variable indépendante importante qui devrait certainement influer sur votre décision finale.


Pensez à tous vos besoins possibles et aux ressources disponibles avant de choisir entre LimeSurvey PRO et LimeSurvey CE.


En règle générale, si vous souhaitez utiliser LimeSurvey sans téléchargement ni configuration, utilisez LimeSurvey PRO. Vous pouvez le tester librement aussi longtemps que vous le souhaitez, puis acheter l'un des packages d'abonnement. Cependant, si vous avez une infrastructure de serveur en cours d'exécution et que vous souhaitez y intégrer LimeSurvey, jetez un coup d'œil à LimeSurvey CE. Nous proposons également d’excellents packages LimeSurvey CE pour améliorer votre installation avec des mises à jour en un clic et des thèmes plus personnalisés.
