### "Ottimo Plugin, Ottima assistenza"

December 14, 2025

5.0

Stiamo usando la versione Élite da quasi un anno. Al momento ha risposto a tutte le nostre esigenze nella costruzione di una piattaforma piuttosto complessa.

Pros

Il Plugin funziona bene anche in situazioni complesse da gestire e l'assistenza risponde in maniera precisa e veloce.

Cons

C'é stato un malfunzionamento in occasione di un aggiornamento (non me lo sarei aspettato per il livello di qualità del plugin) che però é stato prontamente risolto con un'assistenza attenta e indicazioni precise.

### "A very robust forms solution for WordPress"

December 11, 2024

5.0

I use Formidable Forms for a long time and it is a very relyable solution. Recently I started to use the advanced features (Directories, Views,...) and the results are perfect.

Pros

Extremely robust platform with many features.

Cons

I am still a bit confused with the advanced features, but the support is always just an email away :-)

### "I highly recommend Formidable Forms"

July 25, 2024

5.0

Pros

Longtime user of Formidable Forms on MANY sites, and use it daily. The forms are amazing, but it's the features that seal the deal for me. I use almost everything offered in some form. Conditional formatting, zapier integration, Mailchimp, Woocommerce, Views... You name it, Formidable does it! It's pretty easy straightforward and simple to implement. Customer support is always incredible.

Cons

The only negative for me is how Formidable's media upload folder can get bloated if one uses it to display views with large lists containing images.

### "complex but capable of a lot"

February 5, 2025

4.0

After reading the docs we mastered the plugin

Pros

The amount of features is intense, which is a good thing but it takes a bit to get used to it.

Cons

Complex, as one can do a lot with it. Other plugins are maybe easier to use but do not have that much features.

### "Powerful Form Builder with Excellent Multistep and Conditional Logic Features"

August 23, 2024

5.0

Formidable Forms is a top-notch plugin for creating a wide variety of forms, from simple contact forms to complex, multi-step forms. The multistep form feature is especially impressive, offering a smooth and user-friendly experience for visitors. Its integration with ConvertKit is seamless, making it easy to manage leads and email lists directly from your forms. I also appreciate the robust conditional logic functionality, which allows for highly customized forms that respond dynamically to user inputs. Overall, Formidable Forms is a powerful and versatile tool for any WordPress site.

Pros

Formidable Forms excels with its multistep forms, providing an engaging user experience. The seamless ConvertKit integration simplifies lead management, and the powerful conditional logic allows for dynamic, customized forms tailored to user interactions.

Cons

The plugin has a steep learning curve, especially for beginners, and some advanced features like quiz, survey, polls and especially integration with Woocomerce are only available in higher-priced plans, which may not suit all budgets.

Switched from

[Fluent Forms](https://www.capterra.com/p/184304/WP-Fluent-Form/)

I switched from Fluent Forms to Formidable Forms because I needed advanced calculators features and multistep forms with robust conditional logic for creating dynamic, customized forms. Formidable Forms also integrates seamlessly with ConvertKit, which made managing my email lists and lead generation much easier.

### "Not just a simple form...much more!"

September 1, 2024

5.0

Pros

The infinity of things you can create. You really have no limits, it is not a simple form to receive contacts, it is much more! You can create a personalized registration form, you can create an email list that you will then use to inform your employees for example, you can create personalized pages through a form and much more! Calling it a FORM is really reductive. I recommend it!

Cons

If I have to find a "defect" it is the poor integration with page builders like Elementor (the most famous) and the poor integration with SMS gateways, you can only use it with Twilio and it's a shame. But I repeat, it's just if you want to find the "nit in the egg"!

### "Adds great functions to wordpress"

August 12, 2024

4.0

Would choose it again for my work. There are some minor issue but is seems to be the best solution for me.

Pros

A ton of features added to Wordpress. It is especially powerful to add own data structures (here a list of events) to wordpress.

Cons

Some of the features feel not complete. Like the listing on Google Maps which was missing for a long time. Now it is there but it misses clustering.

### "Understandable, Powerful and easy to work with"

May 1, 2024

4.0

Pros

Formidable Forms is incredibly easy to work with. The form builder is very intuitive, there are quite a few built in options available requiring no outside integration to add features.

Cons

When you have a form with a lot of fields/conditionals, the interface tends to be a bit buggy. There also at times appears to be quality control issues upon update releases, leading to software bugs.

### "Formidable Forms is the only Form builder for my company and my customers"

April 6, 2024

5.0

Pure Bliss. I have used just about everything out there and nothing compares to Formidable Forms.

Pros

I love everything about Formidable. The ease of use. The large library of templates. The ability to create custom templates that can be reused. The fact that I can white label the plugin. I can create a customized forms experience for customers in a portion of the time and at a portion of the cost of a developer.

Cons

The calculator functions are a bit tricky but nothing that you can't figure out with a reading in the documentation.

Reason for choosing Formidable Forms

Integrations, templates, and ease of use.

### "Easy to use, creativity is endless, and worth every penny."

February 5, 2024

5.0

Absolutely love the product, the support, and the additional application forms already available on their website.

Pros

The best part about Formidable Forms is that you have the capability to design your forms any way that you want to. You can have your forms automatically notify you when someone fills them out, and you can setup an automatic email responder regarding however they filled out the form. It makes your work easier. Automate your work, so that you spend less time working and more time making money.

Cons

The renewal price for the highest plan is really high. I would like it to come down to $250 yearly or less. Otherwise, I may have to make a change in the future. As a entrepreneur and starting out on my own while supporting 5 kids and my wife, it's not easy to continue paying with such high costs.

### "The Perfect Solution for Building Calculators with Ease"

June 29, 2023

5.0

We were caught in a frustrating cycle with professional developers, as they presented us with complex solutions that led us nowhere. Despite involving three developers and investing a significant amount of time and money, they failed to deliver the special calculator we sought for our website. After extensive research and exploration, we fortuitously discovered Formidable Forms and decided to make the purchase. To our surprise, even without technical knowledge or prior experience, we were able to independently create the desired calculator ourselves.

Pros

I recently had the pleasure of using Formidable Forms, and I cannot emphasize enough how impressed I am with its ease of use and efficiency. Formidable Forms came to our rescue after a disappointing experience with developers who claimed to be proficient in coding calculators but failed to deliver on their promises. Frustrated by the delays and lack of progress, we took matters into our own hands and discovered the remarkable power of Formidable Forms.Our journey with Formidable Forms began when we realized that the calculator we required for our project would be delivered by someone other than the developers we had hired. After waiting over 60 - 75 days and three different developers without any tangible progress, we explored alternative solutions. That's when we stumbled upon Formidable Forms, which was a game-changer.What amazed us the most was how quickly we could create the calculator we needed with Formidable Forms. Armed with nothing more than common sense and a basic understanding of data, we dove into the platform, and within 24 hours, we had a fully functional calculator up and running. The user-friendly interface and intuitive form builder made the process smooth and effortless. We were able to customize the form to align perfectly with our requirements, ensuring seamless integration with our website.

Cons

On the other hand, one aspect that some users may dislike about Formidable Forms is its pricing structure. While the platform offers a range of pricing plans to cater to different needs, some users may find the cost of certain programs relatively higher than other form builder solutions in the market. However, it's important to note that Formidable Forms's value and extensive features often outweigh the pricing concerns, especially for those who prioritize ease of use, advanced customization options, and robust form management capabilities.

### "Great product, but support isn't always helpful"

March 14, 2023

5.0

Mostly positive, until support is needed.

Pros

Relatively easy to use, with a lot of advanced features. It's great but overkill for what most users will need from a forms plugin.

Cons

Support was difficult to work with when I did have issues. They would send back solutions unrelated to my issues, if I send downloads or videos as reference they would not watch or download them before answering me, and multiple times their solution was "don't use other plugins." I've only had to contact them a couple times in two years and both times I got the same representative, so hopefully it's not a company-wide issue.It's really a shame, because I love the plugin itself, but that kind of support doesn't give me a lot of confidence when it comes to using it on client sites. Hopefully they can get those issues under control, it has a lot of potential if so!

Reason for choosing Formidable Forms

Formidable was faster and easier to setup than Gravity forms, with better first party features. WSforms was not as mature of a product when I was doing my evaluations 2 years ago, but I've heard a lot of great things about that and will be re-evaluating what plugin to use in the next couple months.

Hello. I'm very sorry to hear you had a negative experience with support. We pride ourselves on providing top-notch support, so I would really appreciate the opportunity to make it right. However, I don't have a way to locate your support tickets since this review is anonymous. It would be great if you could respond to the email notification so we can to more to make sure every experience with anyone on our team is great in the future.

### "Arkon-Formidable Forms"

March 1, 2023

5.0

No geral o Formidable Forms é uma otima ferramenta de criação de formulários altamente versátil e personalizável que oferece uma ampla variedade de recursos e funcionalidades para criar formulários avançados, integrar com outras ferramentas e automatizar processos.

Pros

O que mais gosto do Formidable Forms e a capacidade de integrar com outras plataformas e sistemas, bem como as opções avançadas de automação de fluxos de trabalho e a possibilidade de criar formulários personalizados para coletar dados de forma mais eficiente e organizada.

Cons

O que menos me agrada no Formidable Forms que tive lentidão e problemas de compatibilidade com a minha versão do WordPress, Além disso, algumas funcionalidades avançadas requerem conhecimentos técnicos mais aprofundados que um usuario novo não tem.

### "Top Forms Builder For Making Web and Mobile Apps on WordPress"

December 27, 2022

5.0

Formidable Forms has helped solved every single forms-based challenge - from simple lead gen and contact forms, through complex business workflows.

Pros

The built-in features for creating custom forms-based business applications are the best.

Cons

Some of the documentation on the most advanced features is sometimes difficult to get through, but that's easily overcome through the generous support offered by expert advanced users in the Formidable Community.

### "Formidable Forms"

December 1, 2022

5.0

I use formidable forms to build product report surveys, customer satisfaction, and client website experience feedback for customers who need them (on our website and fiverr.com). It's trying its best.

Pros

One major thing that I like about this plugin is it's light-weightless. The developer has optimized it for the best SEO- performance and that's an important factor I highly value. Formidable forms keep the product survey-building process simple and straightforward. I don't use it for any other purpose; it's just for surveys.I love how flexible & responsive the drag & drop builder and the visual styler are. They brighten my building experience.Also, it supports advanced listing & directory views which are great options for building more complex surveys

Cons

I think the plugin is quite expensive and I don't enjoy its design quality. Customer support is not too responsive when it means offering product support.

### "Formidable Forms has many features and very flexible - the ultimate form builder"

June 3, 2022

5.0

I have been using Formidable Forms since 2013. I cannot think of another WordPress plugin that I have used for so many years.

Pros

Data collection, form builder, conditional logic, simple to use, great tech support. If you need help building a complicated form, they will help you. Also, Formidable Forms is under constant development. The team works hard to make it better.

Cons

Formidable Forms can get expensive. It is easy to spend $200 annually if you need a lot of integrations and features, like ConvertKit, Stripe, etc. But I can understand why it is expensive because it is constantly being improved and the team provides great support. If you run an agency and have to provide advanced solutions to clients, buying Formidable Forms is a necessity.

Reason for choosing Formidable Forms

Formidable Forms was one of the first professional form builders. I first purchased it 2013 and it has served me well.

### "Formidable Forms is my Form Builder of Choice"

February 2, 2022

5.0

I have built small, mid, and large sized web applications using formidable forms. It is the cornerstone of my development business as I develop fairly complicated, large scale, web applications. Formidable takes away hours and hours of coding and provides features and programming interfaces that others do not. In addition to that, their documentation and support is great.

Pros

The features I use most are the API interface, actions, and filters. The ability to access these features were the deciding options for my selection of formidable.

Cons

Would like to see more control on submit buttons and modal dialogs

### "Awsome Forms plugin"

September 22, 2022

5.0

This plugin allows me to construct contact and order forms, as well as surveys.

Pros

For my new website, I was searching for a WordPress form builder when I came across Formidable Forms. It is by far the most effective form builder I've ever utilized. It offers every feature I desired and more. With all of these capabilities, my site is much more professional-looking!

Cons

I am not proficient in writing code, therefore I struggle with assignments requiring bespoke code, but there are many samples available, which helps. There is nothing that I dislike. As a volunteer with a full-time job, I just do not have the time to pursue additional self-education.

### "No WordPress website should be made without Formidable Forms"

May 27, 2022

5.0

I am very satisfied with Formidable Forms and I do recommend it to any web developer.

Pros

It's such a powerful plugin that saves to much time that I don't or won't make any new website without it. Formidable Forms will bring any website up to the next level.

Cons

I would imagine that the learning curve could be a little difficult for newbies, but with such a powerful plugin such as this it is not too bad as Formidable Forms has a lot of tutorials on their website. The pricing can get a little high for anyone that runs a small web design business where they need more then just a few licenses to use it.

Reason for choosing Formidable Forms

With Formidable Forms I can create some very complex forms where its competitors I believe would not have been able to do.

Pros

I like how flexible and customizable it is. I really appreciate how it also include the automation features which is a huge time saver and productivity tools.

### "Absolutely brilliant - turned my dreams into reality"

May 5, 2018

5.0

Pros

The support is out of this world. In any software one is learning a lot of new skills so brilliant support makes the learning worth while. I could not have done so without it. I had a dream to turn our training companies administration, student management, and quality management system paperless. Formidable Forms has done that. Some of the things we do now, all paperless are; Student enrollment and payments; Keeping up to date records by auto sending emails for updated documentation at the correct time to each student or assessor; Multiple assessors countrywide uploading and assessing student assignments online; Moderators having immediate access to students work and assessors reports at any time from anywhere; Instant generation of reporting functions for the education authorities oversight and quality management role; Views showing snapshots of students progress with hyperlinks to every conceivable piece of data required by quality assurance and assessors throughout the process, and 'To Do' list automatically generated for each person who logs in based on their role ; Students have access to their own data at all times and can see their own progress; Students can maintain and view personal logbooks built into the system which also doubles as evidence for assessor to check currency of participation; The list goes on and on... Our site has over 80 forms with 426 Views.

Cons

I an not competent with writing code myself, so battle with tasks involving custom code, but there are lots of samples available as well so this helps. Nothing really that I do not like. I just do not have the time to do more self learning as I do this voluntarily and have another real job.

### "Una opción buena para la creación de formularios."

August 6, 2023

4.0

Sin duda, una muy buena experiencia comparando este software con otros de creación de formularios, ya que este tiene más características, posibilidades, herramientas muy útiles... Las que más me gustan son que es totalmente responsive, en móviles se ve perfectamente sin variar nada.

Pros

Tiene muchas plantillas pre diseñadas que te facilitan mucho l creación del formulario. Los opciones son muy intuitivas, no resulta nada complicado crear tu propio formulario porque enseguida sabes cómo implementar los campos, modificar colores, rellenos...

Cons

Como todos los software, tiene su versión de pago, y la versión gratuita se queda un poco corta si quieres crear un formulario profesional.

Reason for choosing Formidable Forms

Porque me ofrece más personalización en los formularios y características que otros softwares no me ofrecen.
