Creating a web page for survey

I want to get some feedback from users of an "in-house" software application to find a little bit about how they use it, what they like/ don't like, features they want. The number of users is somewhere between 10 and 100 approx. -don't know exactly

I don't know what the best way to do it is
1. Adobe forms central
2. Hosted service like www.mycontactform.com
3. A simple email with questions in say bold red headings, that users reply to.
4. A web page form using Javascript.

My question is - with a web page using Javascript widgets or something, if someone spends 20 minutes filling in a form then switches to another web page without saving the data, is the data all lost? Would this also happen with a hosted service like mycontactform above?
 
For simple surveys, I use Google Forms rather than building an application. All the data ends up in a Google Spreadsheet.

Yeah my father used Google Forms recently to do a survey for his neighborhood association. It worked out really well. You can email a link to the form, and I think the data gets dropped right into your Google Drive folder.
 
Yep, I had looked at google forms but it seems to be a little bit buggy in that when you look in the summary view, it mixes up the order of the responses across different questions so you can't tell which answers belong to which respondent. (I guess google doesn't pay their programmers very much!).
