Favorite form provider!

Reviewed on 2017/11/17

Pros

Love Formstack! We switched from Wufoo and haven't looked back. While the investment was a bit steeper, it was worth it. The user-interface is extremely intuitive; multiple team members including myself were able to jump in right away with minimal orientation/training. We've had no issues with the service or support whatsoever.

Cons

If only to be nitpicky, canned reporting would be nice (conversions this month, conversions last week, etc.) rather than having to manually set the date range. Some sort of safeguard against bogus form completions (asdfasfj@asf;sdfsd.com) would be nice as well.

Overall, formstack was a great choice for our organization. We've setup and deployed dozens of forms for both public facing use and internal use.

Pros

Formstack's form builder is easy to use and has a lot of integration options. Our form building users range from not-so-tech savvy to power users and both are able to create forms with ease.

Cons

Lack of variety with field types. While formstack isn't a "survey" tool, it's a form tool, I think they could implement a lot of field types that survey tools use and make it easier to use a single platform for all form/data collection needs.

Alternatives Considered

FormAssembly

Reasons for Switching to Formstack Forms

While FormAssembly came highly recommended for it's well built Salesforce integration, we found for our needs Formstack was nearly as capable and the pricing per user was much better. With Formstack we get 10 user accounts where I believe a similar price range with Formassembly was for a single user.

Response from Formstack

Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback. We are in the process of updating our survey capabilities with advanced features and field types. We will announce the updates as soon as they are available.

FormStack Forms Review

Reviewed on 2024/09/12

Pros

Clean looking product once completed and distributed.

Cons

The setup is always a hassle. There is always some minor nuisance that breaks the form. You are lucky to have more than one communication from customer support per business day. So in order to get anything corrected, it takes almost an entire week.

Loved working with Formstack. Excellent customer service and help response times too - which made solving the few issues we had very pain free.

Pros

Love the incredible ability for logic, detail, customization, calculations, integrations with payment solutions, etc. It's really simple to build a simple form, and with a little additional work for larger or more complex forms, you can intake a huge amount of information with relative ease for both you and the end user. Used this for event registrations for years, and the yearly fee vs paying per transaction made this an affordable solution for us.

Cons

Occasionally the modules were tricky to move around when I was working with literally dozens of them. Would have enjoyed the ability to have a button to automatically add a segment of fields and re-add that same segment over and over rather than including them all at once (for example, in a group registration form, having a button that added an additional field for each new group member, rather than a permanently visible set of fields that might not all be needed for a smaller group size). Realizing this is a pretty specific need, we worked around it.

Reasons for Choosing Formstack Forms

For the complexity of our event registrations, we needed something more than Google Forms (which we still use for more basic forms all the time).

Cost was the main factor as well as the ability to produce complex forms.

Great for creating customisable, complex forms

Reviewed on 2022/10/28

Pros

Formstack has features (such as conditions and logic) that allow you to make customizable and efficient forms to reduce survey exhaustion. Google forms is ok for basic forms and great since it's free, but limited in its features. Formstack is the comprehensive software for complex forms.

Cons

My one criticism is that it was difficult to view and share all the file submissions from forms. We would collect quite a few file attachments from each form submission and have to download them all and reupload them to a cloud to share with team members.

Response from Formstack

Heejin,

Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts and feedback with us. We're grateful for your honest feedback and we're glad you feel we're on the right track!

Have a great day.
