This is a good example of a complete solution (includes an input and output structure, as well as reporting and analysis features). The good news is that right out of the box it is useful for polls and surveys, and can even be stretched to be an end-user form generator. On the other hand, it has a few surprising 'flaws' which may cause you to argue my definition of 'simple.'

​Taking SharePoint lists offline into a SharePoint Workspace is certainly a great way to have access to SharePoint content when you're not on your network. But there are compelling reasons to work in SharePoint Workspaces even when you're connected. You can navigate to and open list items more quickly, and enjoy a user interface that's been designed specifically for working with SharePoint items instead of working within the contraints of a Web browser.

​​Who can really trust a blogger that thinks that SharePoint is 'simple'? Yes, I truly believe that SharePoint is 'gloriously simple' and full of ‘plug-and-play solutions' which address many complex business problems. Therefore, as I kick off this series of 'simple' solutions, I'd like to promise you 'simplicity' first with a focus on addressing the most common business problems. I sincerely hope you can envision the possibility that 'it is easier than you think'!
 
Right out of the box, Surveys are useful for polls as well as typical surveys.  They can even be stretched to perform like an end-user form generator.
