Help people finish the form in the timebox

By Adam Cogan in Microsoft Forms 0 Comment

I love Microsoft Forms records the time taken and give us a summary at the end.

Can you work out a reasonable timebox (a touch of Azure AI) based on the other submitted forms and the number of questions…. and give a little beep say every 5 minutes if they have exceeded the time that is reasonable.

One person can forget to finish their Microsoft Form and leave their browser open and it screws up all stats.

As an example everyone in my company was close enough to the 15 minute timebox – this one person ruined the stats.

Figure: Microsoft Forms didn’t remind this person to finish
Figure: So my stats are not useful

Help me know my progress when reading responses for a Form

  1. I have 50 responses to read… where am I up to?
    Suggestion: Show an indicator on this page
  2. When a new response comes afterwards… how do I know I have a new one to read?
    Suggestion: Have a read/unread like email
  3. When a response requires a comment from me … how do I do that?
    Suggestion: Have a comments with an @mention just like Teams and Azure DevOps.
    E.g. https://ssw.com.au/rules/when-you-use-mentions-in-a-pbi/
Figure: How many more to read?

Help me know there is an image in the Work Item

Dear Work Item team,

When you get an email after an @mention in a PBI, images won’t show… so we can’t tell if there is an image or not…

It should include images in the emails.

❌ Figure: Bad example – I would not have guessed there was an image in the Work Item… Please improve the email to show the image or include some text “Image redacted – Click here”
Figure: There you go, proof… There is the image
