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.

CEO Real Estate Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Covency and Formidable Forms" November 25, 2024 5.0 I have been use FF since 2020 and I am so happy. Pros Formidable Forms gives me the possibility to create so many type of forms and achieve all my needs. Cons It is full of features and cover every possibility. Review Source TS Tomas S. CEO Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "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 :-) Review Source FH Felix H. Webdeveloper Internet Used the software for: 2+ years ### "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. Review Source Barnabas H. Owner Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "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. Alternatives considered [Gravity Forms](https://www.capterra.com/p/206381/Gravity-Forms/) Switched from [Gravity Forms](https://www.capterra.com/p/206381/Gravity-Forms/) Formidable has a better UX and better feature integration.

WordPress Developer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "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. Review Source CP Can P. CEO Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great tool" September 3, 2024 5.0 Great experience and great service. The response time is amazing! Pros You can build very complex applications with it. Cons Using language plugins in combination with FF can be tough sometimes. Switched from [Gravity Forms](https://www.capterra.com/p/206381/Gravity-Forms/) Gravity forms did not offer what i WANTED Review Source AI Alfonso I. Consultant informatique Information Technology and Services Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "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"! Review Source GM Greg M. President CEO Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "My Views-The Good and Yhe Bad" June 29, 2024 4.0 I can not complain about my experience with Formidable except maybe about the support experience. Support is sometimes rude and demeaning, but they are no different than other form makers, and no one has good support. If you stay away from Support, it is a useful tool and I focus on the abilities made available to me and I like using the tool. Pros The ease of use and the complete functionality are unprecedented. Cons They sometimes try to add features that are unneeded and don't consider customers' needs; they add them whether customers need or want them. Review Source Brent W. Owner and Operator Design Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "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. Alternatives considered [Jotform](https://www.capterra.com/p/158456/JotForm-4-0/) Reason for choosing Formidable Forms Way more flexible, and cheaper. Has abilities jot form just doesn't come to par with. Review Source TD Tony D. Chief Consultant and Designer Computer & Network Security Used the software for: 2+ years ### "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. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Web Design & Development Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "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! Alternatives considered [Gravity Forms](https://www.capterra.com/p/206381/Gravity-Forms/) 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. Switched from [Elementor](https://www.capterra.com/p/169468/Elementor/)[Gravity Forms](https://www.capterra.com/p/206381/Gravity-Forms/)[WPForms](https://www.capterra.com/p/234945/WPForms/) Needed more features. Review Source Response from Strategy11 March 17, 2023 Hello. I'm very sorry to hear you had a negative experience with support.

Owner Design Used the software for: 2+ years ### "The best -and only- App development plugin for WordPress" July 6, 2023 5.0 Required software that would allow us to build highly complex forms, have people view the data in a customized format, schedule interviews, take notes and applicants, etc. Formidable certainly fit the bill, and any other solution would have been unacceptable, honestly. It has allowed us to customize everything you need forms for come out like registration, etc. Absolutely invaluable. Pros We chose formidable forms because we need the ability to customize the data views. While we found the plug in quite pricey, it was the only option for creating the custom outputs required. Now that I'm getting past the learning curve, and getting to know the documentation, it really is super powerful. While there are a couple of features I would like to see, for the most part it absolutely rocks! I recommend it to people all the time Cons What are the main features I feel the software is lacking he has the ability to connect and manipulate outside databases. I used to be a Joomla guy. There is a plugin for Joomla called Fabrik. It is a super powerful database application development platform they allows you connect to any database anywhere. However the learning curve fabric was terribly steep, i found formidable forms far easier to learn and become proficient with. Will my name complaint, if you can call it that, would be the price. However if a for profit business, which we are not, required these features, it is definitely worth it. Reason for choosing Formidable Forms It was the only plugin that did what we needed.

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. Review Source MC Michael C. Consultant Internet Used the software for: 2+ years ### "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. Alternatives considered [Gravity Forms](https://www.capterra.com/p/206381/Gravity-Forms/)[Ninja Forms](https://www.capterra.com/p/204315/Ninja-Forms/) Reason for choosing Formidable Forms Formidable Forms quickly set itself apart with its powerful third-party integrations, native report building features, workflow/automation capabilities and its API.

Once I found Formidable Forms, I've nenver looked back. Review Source Romaric S. Web graphic designer Computer Software Used the software for: 2+ years ### "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. Review Source SB Stephen B. WordPress developer - Content creator, writer Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "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. Review Source Tom T. Owner Computer Software Used the software for: 2+ years ### "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 Alternatives considered [Gravity Forms](https://www.capterra.com/p/206381/Gravity-Forms/)[WPForms](https://www.capterra.com/p/234945/WPForms/)[Ninja Forms](https://www.capterra.com/p/204315/Ninja-Forms/) Reason for choosing Formidable Forms They offered more development features than the other products Review Source Bogdan Marian M. Dev Online Media Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "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. Alternatives considered [Gravity Forms](https://www.capterra.com/p/206381/Gravity-Forms/) Reason for choosing Formidable Forms I'm accustomed to using Formidable Forms, and this plugin provides all the capabilities I require.

I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable and powerful form-building solution. Thank you, Formidable Forms, for a decade of excellence and here's to many more years of success together! Cons Whenever I compare this tool with similar options, I must admit that I consistently fail to identify any downsides that warrant mention at this point in time. Formidable Forms has consistently proven itself as the top choice in the realm of form-building plugins, leaving me with nothing but confidence and satisfaction in its capabilities.

It's the best, even better than WP Form and Fluentform. Will always recommend this to my client and friend if they asked about form builder plugin. 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. Cons Nothing much really. Just that it would be even better if you could provide varied design style for different devices so I can make the form look mobile responsive Review Source IM Itziar M.

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. Review Source JW Jonathan W. Senior Software Engineer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Conditional action hooks make this the best form plugin for WordPress" August 3, 2020 5.0 Overall, Formidable Forms has been my go-to form builder for the last 7 years. I switched from a competitor because while their feature set was more robust, Formidable had a more modern feel and was easier to work with as a developer. Pros Not only is the drag-n-drop interface super easy to work with, but the included fields almost always meet my needs. The included actions that can be triggered on successful form submission, while not exhaustive, usually meet the requirements of my projects. There are plenty of add-ons that help to meet the needs if one of the built-in ones doesn't. Cons One thing I feel is missing from this plugin is advanced conditional field values. When using a form to try to create a quiz that scored users based on their overall answers, it was difficult to add those form values together and redirect to an appropriate success page base on the total of all fields. Alternatives considered [Gravity Forms](https://www.capterra.com/p/206381/Gravity-Forms/) Reason for choosing Formidable Forms In the end, Formidable was easier to work with as a developer and provided a fuller feature set for the cost than the competition. Form Actions was probably the biggest selling point for me early on. They are amazing.
