About This Feature

Scoring Question is a question-type setup feature in Smart Forms for questionnaires in WPS Office on Windows. It is used to add a rating-style question to a form so you can collect structured feedback such as satisfaction scores, experience ratings, and evaluation levels.
Core tasks include:
- Open the Scoring Question entry: go to the questionnaire area in the form editor and enter the scoring-question setup panel.
- Configure the question: enter the prompt and adjust related settings.

Compare with Alternatives
| Dimension | WPS | Microsoft | Notion | Adobe | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capability Summary | Provides a Scoring Question entry in Smart Forms questionnaires, with setup, preview, and save steps inside the editing flow. | Microsoft Forms supports a Rating question type when creating a quiz, with preview and response analysis. | Google Forms supports Rating and Linear scale question types, with icon choices, scale settings, and required options. | Notion Forms is built on database properties and supports multiple question types, required fields, and preview, but the official help page does not present a dedicated native question type named Scoring Question. | Adobe Acrobat official form guidance focuses on PDF form fields, calculations, and submit actions rather than a native survey-style rating question type. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: The Scoring Question entry stays inside the Smart Forms questionnaire workflow, making setup, preview, and saving more direct in one editing view. | Compared with WPS: It includes a native Rating question type, but the workflow is centered on Microsoft Forms quizzes and forms. | Compared with WPS: It offers both Rating and Linear scale question types, giving more built-in rating formats. | Compared with WPS: It is more database-driven, so rating-style collection is typically designed through properties and form configuration. | Compared with WPS: It is more focused on PDF form fields and calculations than online questionnaire rating workflows. |

Overall Conclusion
