123FormBuilder vs. Ignite UI

If you have a lot of customer interaction with your site, where you need to collected specific, targeted, situational data, 123FormBuilder is an absolute winner. If your site is more information and perhaps leads to a software platform or other product or service, 123FormBuilder might prove unnecessarily robust for you. Something simpler and cheaper might make more sense for you. But in most cases where you're seeking to collect information from customers, I'd happily recommend 123FormBuilder.

Angular is our framework of choice for a number of reasons. Business data is almost always displayed in a grid format. It makes sense to start with a strong widget that is powerful and fast when building applications. Ignite UI provides a complete toolset of widgets for other frameworks, but Angular is our focus. Ignite UI is helping us deliver a great UX/UI.

• Ease of constructing a form with requisite inputs
• Customizable look and feel options based on varying requirements in our case
• Logic based branching & validation

• The examples are great and close enough to real-life usage to be truly helpful
• The OOB configuration and themes are good. They are very configurable.
• The touch support and response web are built in, allowing the same code to work well on desktop and phone.

• Some employees are intimidated at first. After all, it is html.
• There is so much functionality that it can be easy for novices to get lost.
• Will there be more payment flexibility? parents use more of the bank to person payment options.

• I would like to see examples with security tokens. It really isn't an Ignite UI issue, but would be helpful.
• Some of the examples are over-simplified, not how the products would be used in real life.

I installed 123ContactForm myself and while I had some issues installing it I was able to visit their website and the troubleshooting information they provided in their faq section. They did offer other support if a user needed additional support, but I found the information provided on their website to be more than sufficient

123ContactForm was very easy to implement and the content provided by them supported the product very well and answered all of my questions

Compared to JotForm or Woofoo, 123ContactForm offers a much better interface and better flexibility than the other tools. I have used JotForm only to get stumped by their inability to push the limits of the form. As for Woofoo, the level of ease of use in terms of their interface leaves much to be desired. Any updates made to their form was down using a WYSIWYG, where with 123ContactForm you can make the updates while building the form

We tried DevExpress when we started a project a couple of years ago. At the time, the documentation and ease of use went to Infragistics. When trying new or updated tools, the documentation and samples are everything. Having minimal documentation or documentation that seems to be written for people that already know how to use the product is just plain frustrating. Samples need to be something close to the real-life usage of the product.

It was easy to install and I believe that would make it easy to use across several websites

• 123ContactForm has been positive for my business. It has saved us money because we did not require any development I was able to do this myself.

• There is a learning curve, of course, but the comparisons between the projects with and without Ignite UI are worth it.
• The time savings on development is very real. The built-in functionality is amazing.
• We are able to focus on features rather than getting the look and feel of our deliverable.
