I used to run a B2C app with 100k monthly users a couple years ago, and got so frustrated with existing solutions which were either too complicated or too expensive, that I ended up using a single Google Form. I don't need to tell you how tedious the process of going through all the answers was.

Got 100 signups in week one. Felt amazing. Week two? 3 people were still using it. Everyone else bounced. That hurt. But what hurt more was I had no idea why.
