Likelihood to Recommend FormAssembly is an excellent tool for creating personalized web forms that integrate with
Salesforce . It is a very powerful tool and although it is user-friendly, there is a learning curve. It would be less suited for very simple forms that do not integrate with other systems, as there are probably simpler tools available for that purpose.
Read full review I like that it easily captures the data we need. There are calculator options, so it's best for our petty cash or overtime request, and the date options are best for our leave applications.
It has more features than Google or Microsoft Forms, which could make it a bit more complicated for those who have gotten used to the simplicity of both Google or Microsoft.
Read full review Pros SalesForce integration is really nice. You can map to specific fields with form values, or you can use detailed formulas. You can also choose to bypass assignment rules on a per-form basis, and create customized logic for when cases are created, when leads are created/merged, etc. It's very robust. Form creation in general is very simple. They've gotten good over the years of creating an intuitive, drag and drop interface that's quick to edit. I like that you can also assign values to fields so conditional form building gets easy. I like that you can customize how responses are viewed in the response window. Choose what columns show up so you can find records with ease, and with just one glance. OR you can download everything to excel in a snap too.

Educates clients about the benefit of supplementation Educates my prospects Read full review Cons It may not be Salesforce Lightning Experience compatible - at least for us - in terms of linking to Lightning Experience Notes Saving a form edit can be confusing depending on where in the form the edit is made It would be nice to add a background image so that the desktop browser doesn't have so much white-space around the form. Read full review I understand that jotform is a business but I wish you had a little higher capacity limits on the free version The paid versions are a little pricey. Would be great if it was not a reoccurring monthly charge but rather a one time fee for the paid versions. I wish i could get notification emails sent to more that one email address on the free version Read full review Likelihood to Renew One major point for us is our migration to a completely Microsoft infrastructure. IN addition to that, the afore mentioned need to ingest external data resources means that we do have our eyes open toward the landscape so that we can fill these needs. This in no way indicates a move away from FormAssembly: their support is first rate, and so far the product has always stood up to the tests we've put it through.

Read full review I honestly have not used the support feature with Jotform. From what I can see when I look information up, everything I want to do something that I can't figure out myself it seems to not be a possible solution or edit that Jotform is currently capable of.

Read full review Alternatives Considered When we were researching options 2 years ago, FormAssembly beat other form tools hands down based on
Salesforce integration features. The ability to declaratively set up prefill and post-submission data connectors supporting complex hierarchical data relationships was huge there. We also valued the ability to authenticate
Salesforce users on the form. This allowed us to ensure that only authorized individuals could make updates to their records (and not other people's records) via the form. Since we embed it so heavily into
Salesforce , we often compare FormAssembly to
Salesforce 's native Visualforce and Lightning Component frameworks when deciding how to fulfill a data capture requirement. Unless something very custom is called for, we very often choose FormAssembly first for the flexibility it gives us to build and iterate in the early phases of a new program.
Read full review Typeform is better hands down [in my opinion]. It's not even a comparison as [I feel] JotForm doesn't work properly and [from my experience I think] their support is very problematic. I would suggest using
Typeform or using GravityForms as an alternative to JotForm. Whatever you do, [I feel you shouldn't] depend on JotForm for something that is important to your business or research project.
Read full review Return on Investment FormAssembly allows staff to gather better data and not have to do so much manual entry. This allows staff to focus their energies on other mission critical items. FormAssembly helps to improve data quality by reducing duplicates and enforcing data quality. Read full review It saved me time. Within minutes I was able to create and share forms to collect demographic data. While struggling to use another software, I thought of Jotform and it was able to assist me with collating the data I had to confirm results previously obtained. I could not easily identify what new information was provided in a resubmission by a respondent. Read full review ScreenShots
