### "Formstack is not worth it"

April 13, 2020

1.0

Formstack is not a great option. I would encourage everyone to look elsewhere - Gravity Forms is a great alternative.

Pros

Formstack integrates with Salesforce which is why we originally chose this form builder.

Cons

Formstack is overpriced, pretty limited. Nothing you can't do with Gravity forms or another cheaper alternative. Customer service is not that helpful. Formstack recently bought Webmerge which was a great software. Since then, Webmerge has gone down hill as well.

Reason for choosing Formstack Forms

Integrated with SalesForce.

### "Great product with a TON of capabilities "

April 16, 2019

4.0

Its such an easy product to use. We complete switched from our other form generator because this one was just that good.

Pros

I love that this product is so easy to use. They have preloaded integrations with CRMs BUT if you don't see what you are looking for it is easy to create your own. The form builds are easy to use and the amount of customization is fantastic!

Cons

Pricing is a little steep but the product is worth it!

### "No better way to capture important data"

October 3, 2019

5.0

Using Formstack has seamlessly allowed us to capture duch important information from new customers and staff members.

Pros

We use this product to have customers enroll and buy our product - simple, easy and clean way to capture all the important information and allow them to safely input credit card information for payment

Cons

I am concerned that Formstack is considering changing the way they permit the user to keep credit card information.

December 8, 2019

5.0

an easy way for customers to fill out their info online and have it integrate with our salesforce

Pros

This has made our new accounts set up process so much easier. It was 100% manual data entry before we found this. It has reduced the time it takes to set up an a account.

Cons

it took a bit to get it set up. We had a free trial first, but in the end we were able to get it to work wih salesforce

### "I love Formstack"

February 22, 2020

5.0

We use Formstack for a lot of registration forms here at MCC, plus integrating with a payment program like PayPal is pretty simple.

Pros

Formstack is one of the easiest form creation software packages I've ever used. The interface is user-friendly and self-explanatory. It's good for developers and non-developers to use, and it's flexible. I really like how the logic modules function. It's easy to create expandable forms using their logic tools, and takes the stress out of developing an algorithm to do that.

Cons

The only thing that I wish was a little better is having the required fields and asterisks stand out more. With a larger and more complex form, all of the fields kind of blend together.

### "Great Choice"

August 11, 2020

5.0

Overall, I would recommend this to anyone. This is very easy to use and it keeps my recruiting job easily.

Pros

Great choice especially for recruiter like me, where I can send forms to the candidates so that they can easily review the documents needed for their application.

Cons

So far, I did not encounter any problems with this software. It is a great help for recruiters like me.

### "Spotty submissions, slow support response - we bought a car with no engine."

January 16, 2019

1.0

Pros

Helpful Salesforce integration saves times, very customizable branding options to designed multiple types of forms, fairly appealing interface.

Cons

We bought an engine with no car. Our users are submitting forms that are not recorded anywhere, and the support options are either incredibly slow, or, require you pay extra money every month.

### "Fast creation/re-use. Very flexible."

April 24, 2014

4.0

Adding a list of items is as simple as copy/pasting the list in Lists are separate from forms, so once you enter a list (e.g., countries, counties, cities), you can re-use that list across forms. Also allows a ton of style customization (though perhaps more comfortable for the technically inclined Also allows form data submission to multiple places. Slightly more difficult to use than wufoo, but faster once you get the hang of it. Also a full unlimited free trial. One star off for usability and some issues with saving/editing themes/forms when multiple formstack tabs are open in browser.

### "FormStack Forms"

August 14, 2020

5.0

Pros

What I like most about formstack is the ease of use and user friendly qualities that it offers.

Cons

What I like least about Formstack is that I have noticed at times what information I enter will not make it to the administrator. There have been a few times where I have had to go back in and renter the data.

### "Easy Custom Form Plug In"

June 7, 2017

5.0

We truly haven't found any negatives with the software. It does exactly what we need it to do and we've yet to have any issues.

Pros

It is very intuitive to use and we were up and running in a day. We set up our first form and were able to review it with our team and implement it the next day.

### "Great tool for gathering data/information"

February 26, 2020

5.0

Collecting customer data and keeping it clean and organized, I would say Formstack or something like it is a necessity for the area of the company I work in s I am glad to have it.

Pros

Our team uses Formstack to gather customer travel data such as flight information, reservations, dining, traveler basic info etc. This feeds into Salesforce and helps keep track of clean data.

Cons

I suppose the only con to it is a slight learning curve and getting used to all the logic, another thing is I wish you could test through the Formstack from the "customer side" without having to fill in all the information to move to the next page.

### "User friendly and makes beautiful forms"

April 19, 2019

5.0

Pros

I love using formstack. It is extremely user friendly and easy to navigate and has tons of functionality, like signatures, credit cards, logic, etc. It can do a LOT.

Cons

I wish it integrated more easily with other software so that formstack data could go into different databases, etc.

### "Basic registration form"

October 24, 2018

3.0

I've only used Formstack for a quick event registration form. I think it's fine for that basic need.

Pros

We use this software for a quick registration option on our event webpage. It's so easy for the user to put their name and email address in the form. No signing in or verifying email addresses. Easy peasy.

Cons

I think the back end is a challenge, until you have a chance to really figure it out. I stick with the basics on getting our form on the event page. I don't find it super user friendly. It's also hard to people to change their registration (i.e., cancel) with the form, which can make for some unknown cancellations at the event.

### "Formstack has freed my time up for other projects!"

December 14, 2016

5.0

I love Formstack. We went from an entirely paper-based registration system to using Formstack and now I only get 1 or 2 paper registrations a year (instead of 500+). It was intuitive and easy to set-up. So far, there have been options for everything I want to do. Plus, I can then keep digital records of my registrations instead of having files, and files, and files of paper. I particularly love the "emails and notifications" feature that allows me to set-up automatic notifications to each of my 45 parishes whenever someone registers, plus automatically send a detailed registration confirmation, another time saver for me! I've also used the Google-docs sync feature to communicate registrations to other people I work with across the state. I can set it up to share only what they need and keep other information private. I use the download to Excel and download to PDF functions to save data and manipulate data as needed. I loved using Formstack so much, I converted everyone in my office to it as well, and now we offer online registration for everything. Hello 21st Century!

### "Good starting form management "

December 9, 2016

3.0

Been using Formstack for several years now and I'm overall satisfied with the product. However, I don't expect too much from it in terms of logic trees and easy formatting. It's there, but you don't have much. It does have connectors which are easy to set up so syncing results with salesforce was very easy. If budget is an issue for you or you just need something simple, definitely go with this product.

### "Easy to use forms tool for developers and non-developers alike"

April 2, 2019

4.0

Pros

I love how the fields are simply just drag and drop. You need no coding knowledge to make a form in Formstack.

Cons

I wish there were a few more design options, like the ability to center images or change fonts. Sometimes the fonts don't go with the aesthetic of our website. Even better, the ability to set default fonts within a company's space, so that people could go in and make a form that automatically matches in fonts and colors, would be ideal.

I stopped using formstack in favor of other data collection softwares.

Pros

Formstack worked fine and got the job I needed to get done. It was a typical data collection sofware that did typical data collection software things.

Cons

I didn't think formstack was as intuitive as other data collection softwares which I why I stopped using it.
