Common questions about our managed ODK Central hosting.
ODK Central is the modern server for ODK (Open Data Kit). It replaces the older ODK Aggregate. It is used to host survey forms, manage field worker permissions, and securely collect and export data submitted from the ODK Collect Android app or Enketo web forms.
ODK Collect is a free, open-source Android app you can download from the Google Play Store. Nextgen Hosting provides the secure backend server (ODK Central) that the app connects to in order to download forms and upload collected data.
You can view and manage your data via the ODK Central web dashboard. Data can be exported as CSV/Excel files, or accessed programmatically via OData to connect in real-time with tools like Power BI, Tableau, Excel, and R.
ODK Central does not enforce hard software limits on submissions. However, the performance and storage capacity depend on the server resources of the plan you choose. Our plans are sized to handle thousands to millions of submissions smoothly.
While our core service is managed server hosting, our team has extensive experience with XLSForm design. We offer form designing as an additional consulting service to help you build complex logic, skip patterns, and calculations into your surveys.
