What is logic branching in Zoho Survey?
Logic branching (skip logic) in Zoho Survey lets you show or hide questions based on previous answers — creating personalised survey flows. Example: if a respondent selects "Dissatisfied" on NPS, show a follow-up question; if "Satisfied", skip to the next section. You can branch by: (1) Answer-based — show next question based on selected option. (2) Score-based — branch based on NPS rating (0–6 detractors, 7–8 passives, 9–10 promoters). (3) Page-based — skip entire pages or sections. (4) Randomisation — randomise question order or answer options to reduce bias. (5) Piping — insert previous answers into later questions. Logic branching increases relevance and completion rates. PrecisionTech designs custom logic flows for customer feedback, NPS, and employee surveys.
