FormAssembly
Well suited to get information into Salesforce. For the pricepoint you have to pay and the workflow you have to set up it is less appropriate when using Microsoft 365. The Google connector is very simple and you can use it with forms, it hinders us that is not an option unless a workflow is used.

For a cost-effective online survey solution, LimeSurvey is excellent. While it cannot compete with high-end, expensive software like Qualtrics, it does a great job.

Pros
FormAssembly
  • Integrating with Salesforce - mapping fields is straightforward, and custom formulas allow for some increased complexity in processing.
  • Scalability - we leverage the URL pre-fill and dynamic picklist features to use a single form for multiple different programs.
  • Simple form building via point-and-click is relatively easy. Hidden fields, conditionals, and repeat sections are useful features for more complex form needs.
  • Custom CSS option is useful - has allowed us to visually integrate FormAssembly forms onto our website via iframe.

Cons
FormAssembly
  • FormAssembly could do a much better job supporting customers. As I mentioned, FormAssembly is critical to our day-to-day operations, so it is very important to us that support is prompt and reliable when we reach out. Unfortunately, this has not been our experience. For example, on more than one occasion, I had a support case open for months without hearing back, despite repeatedly following up.
  • FormAssembly could make troubleshooting and configuration updates easier by improving their user interface. Salesforce, for example, has a feature called "Where is this used?" for fields, which makes it easy to address bugs and make changes efficiently and effectively.
  • FormAssembly could benefit from improving training and support resources.

FormAssembly continues to meet our needs, and the product functionality continues to grow, providing us with new opportunities to utilize the software. We've built many forms and associated processes on FormAssembly. It would require a large effort to migrate to another platform. We have invested a lot of time in learning FormAssembly.

Usability
FormAssembly
The UI is very intuitive and easy to use, even if you've never used a form building platform before. There is plenty of easy-to-find documentation so if you're unsure on anything, you can sense-check it. I also love the drag-and-drop form building. It is a breeze to use, especially compared to other form builders which are quite clunky, or where the functionality takes a lot of clicks to reach. Everything is easily accessible and ready to use with FormAssembly.

Support Rating
FormAssembly
While it's not a true development package and misses some features like ingestion of external data for lists, etc... the product is fast, stable, easy to use, and will suit the needs of anyone needing online form functionality with SalesForce and other connectors available for your marketing needs.

Alternatives Considered
FormAssembly
FormAssembly's features were more expansive than SurveyMonkey, in my opinion. When doing a comparison, we really liked that we could set up formulas to calculate expenses for us and that they would be easy to update as needed for rates that change from year to year.

LimeSurvey was much cheaper than Qualtrics but certainly less powerful. From a survey standpoint, it has more capabilities than SurveyMonkey and Zoho. LimeSurvey has no reporting or analytic capabilities.
