Today we are announcing the launch of Ona Collect, a tweaked version of ODK Collect created especially for Ona users. This new mobile client is a baby step into building a seamless experience for our users, starting with a few small improvements.

Ona is conducting an online survey to better understand challenges faced by our users. If you use Ona now — or have in the past — we’d like to hear from you. Click here to take the survey.
Please take a few minutes to complete the survey. It’s your chance to help us define our roadmap! Responses to this survey will be used internally only — and all individual responses will be kept strictly confidential.
Following the survey, you will be entered into a drawing to win a $50 Amazon gift card (or equivalent online retailer in your country). We will randomly draw three (3) winners, to be notified on Friday, December 4, 2015.
Thank you for your participation.
The 3 week free trial for Ona is ending tomorrow and we’ll be enabling usage limits for users who have not signed up for a paid plan.
Starting tomorrow, users with personal accounts that are not on a paid plan will be transitioned to the free Community plan. This plan has a limit of 500 submissions total to private forms per month, 15 private forms, and 1 private project. Public project and forms, and submissions to public forms are unlimited.
Organization accounts that are not on a paid plan will be transitioned to the free Public Organization account. This plan allows unlimited public projects and forms, unlimited submissions to public forms, and no private projects or forms.
If you have existing forms on Ona that put you over your account limits, you will have limited access to your forms and account. For more information on what to do if you are over limit, read the over usage limit FAQ on our help page.
If you haven’t signed up yet and are interested in upgrading to a paid plan, please visit the Ona Plans page and contact us using the form. We’ll work with you to determine a pricing level for your use. If you aren’t grant-funded, you can also apply for the Impact Grant Program , which gives free Ona access and support to organizations who are making a difference and might have difficulty paying.
This post will tell you everything you need to know about creating, sharing, managing, and getting the most out of your projects in Ona.
In Ona, a project is where your related forms and data are stored. Projects can hold as many forms and data as your plan allows. When you first log in to Ona, your home page displays a list of all of your projects as well as any projects that have been shared with you (more on that later). If you used the old version of Ona, then you probably noticed that when you first logged in to the new Ona site, all of your existing forms and data were automatically placed into your first project, which was called [Your username]’s Project. Don’t worry! You can always move your forms and data into other projects later on.
We launched Ona 2 today! In our previous announcements here, here, and on our release log, we described the new features in Ona 2. There’s also a Getting Started guide that will show you, well, how to get started, and what has changed from the previous version of Ona. If you have questions on the transition, please email support@ona.io.
