Considered Both Products

Chose airSlate WorkFlow
HelloSign is the only other products we've used but it does not have the automation we needed. We used it when we were processing fewer digital forms and most others were required by our legal department to be printed and signed.
Chose airSlate WorkFlow
airSlate is cheaper to utilize, and allows for more specified automation. I always worry about the per envelope cost for DocuSign, which is not a factor when utilizing airSlate.

airSlate also notifies us if there is an issue with a bot, whereas we have had people attempt to …
Chose airSlate WorkFlow
I think each one has its purpose and one product can't be everything. airSlate does a great job at being economical for a business while also delivering the software that you need with the ability to make it your own. the support team is also outstanding which is a huge plus.
Chose airSlate WorkFlow
We had been unable to get much attention from DocuSign support/sales when we decided we wanted to connect forms to Salesforce. I stumbled across airSlate on the appExchange, and their sales team was responsive and helpful. I haven't worked in DocuSign myself, but my users tell …
Chose airSlate WorkFlow
We initially thought airSlate could replace Cognito Forms for our company. However airSlate is missing key features that would allow this. We currently use Cognito Forms to take form entries for clinical samples we receive in the lab and then in bulk are able to ingest new …
Chose airSlate WorkFlow
We've used several other web form applications but none of them add the ease of use as airSlate. Also, none of them integrated with our other tech stack, such as Salesforce.
Chose airSlate WorkFlow
I never used the actual product other than signing documents
Chose airSlate WorkFlow
We chose airSlate over docusign because it allowed us to customize more things. DocuSign was getting pricier and allowed less customization or tools for the same price airSlate was offering. airSlate also gave us a non profit discount and allowed for us to be HIPAA compliant …
Chose airSlate WorkFlow
One of the other platforms we used was terribly hard to configure correctly- we spent many many hours on processes that never worked correctly- and two of these platforms did not have transparency in what they said they could do and what they could really do. And the feature …
Chose airSlate WorkFlow
airSlate is cheaper and the automations save a lot of time. The only issue with airSlate is you can not share document links.
Chose airSlate WorkFlow
Adobe is extremely easy to use for forms that have to be built every time - like tax returns - even when it sometimes thinks every box needs data that is already there from the tax program. It requires no account creation or other hoops for the signer to complete a signature …
Chose airSlate WorkFlow
airSlate covers some processes that are not available yet in power automate, or have an additional cost / third party reliance. airSlate also has the ability to produce solutions in a sometimes faster manner than power automate, depending on the complexity. Plus, the licensing …
Chose airSlate WorkFlow
With airSlate, you are not bound to just one type of tool like you are with Google forms. airSlate allows you to link to other tools, other than Google to make the forms work even better.
Chose airSlate WorkFlow
While maintaining similar features as alternative products, airSlate is easier to use and less expensive. It is quicker to setup and creating new forms and workflows are easy with the help of built-in templates. I find the user interface friendly and well designed compared to …
Chose airSlate WorkFlow
Kissflow was overly complex and costly. Forms On Fire didn't seem to have the support we needed. We already subscribe to Adobe Sign, but was a hassle to figure out how to construct a cascading set of authorisations that pulled data from a sheet according to user input.
Chose airSlate WorkFlow
Tallyfy is a wonderfully robust solution but airSlate further connected the dots for us with the full integration to the electronic signature aspect of our needs. I'm not sure where Tallyfy stands currently on that front.

Formstack has a lot of work to do to get up to Jotform standards. Jotform has more payment integration options which is a HUGE selling factor for us as far as which program to choose. They also offer more discounts for non-profits which we work with often. Formstack has some …

airSlate WorkFlowFormstack for Salesforce
Likelihood to Recommend
Well suited for forms that need to be signed by one or more people (ie multiple levels of managers). Great to keep all completed slates in one section so that you can find what was completed and where. It does get a bit tricky with routing when it's a bit of back and forth.

Cons
  • Field mapping to Salesforce is precise but a bit fidgety. Would be nice to be able to do it on the form builder instead of in a separate bot.
  • Fillable fields in PDFs are ugly. It would be nice if font size/spacing/alignment actually matched the document.

  • mastering the more advanced features of Formstack, especially those related to complex form configurations and workflow automation, can be challenging.
  • we need a broader range of pre-built templates within Formstack
  • Improvements in the mobile app experience, such as a more intuitive design and additional features comparable to the web version, would enhance the usability of Formstack

Usability
Starting with a template it is easy to see how parts of the workflow are connected and make changes that will customise the product for your own use case. In our situation, rather than starting from scratch, our form was working within hours of joining the trial version. Several hours of tweaks lead us to a form that is better than the tool it was replacing and we are saving real man-hours with a minimum investment of time and money. Service has been exceptional.

They support staff is very knowledgeable and accommodating
