FormAssembly vs. Zoho Forms

FormAssembly is awesome for certain situations. Website integration is particularly smooth, and integrations with platforms like FormAssembly are widely available. For us, this makes FormAssembly a vital tool for high-volume training with participants under high-workload conditions, because it reduces friction for participants as they complete the forms while saving time for our staff who handle data entry. Conversely, the process of setting up forms and their integrations feels heavy-handed for some of our smaller events with fewer participants.

Zoho Forms is great for customer surveys, collection of data, onboarding clients, instances where you need a signature. Might be less appropriate for some businesses depending upon branding messages. Zoho Forms has some disclaimers that appear on forms i.e. not to enter personal information, credit cards, passwords, etc. so depends upon the intent & purposes of the form data collection, whether it would be a solution that would fit every business model.

• Salesforce prefill is a powerful way to prefill forms with records from Salesforce and prevent duplicate data entry.
• Salesforce submission connector allows us to create some pretty complex and powerful logic to process form submissions into Salesforce data.
• General form prefill options via query strings in the URL is a helpful feature.
• The ability to use custom CSS and javascript on the page makes the forms very extensible and has been helpful to give us even more functionality.

• Its feature of sending alerts in real time is my favorite feature. Whenever someone fills an inquiry form, I get alert immediately.
• It has a mobile app also which makes this software usable at anytime and anywhere.
• It's a cloud based application so users don't need so save anything on their system and they don't need to be dependent on their system. They can access their forms from any system.

• we could always use more styling options when it comes to the form builder
• in our past use of the form builder when adding attachments to a form, there was an upload limit of 35MB. It would be great if this limit was increased.

• Zoho Forms could improve if the Super Admin had access to view all reports from org users, not just view the name
• Audit history tracking needs to be extended, many of our older forms show no history past the creation date

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.

I've already explained in detail why this rating is so high. It's very user-friendly; a green Salesforce admin can get set up and start using it right away. And if they need support, the support page provides documentation and screenshots to describe any questions they may have. They like it a lot!

The user interface and user experience is outstanding, seems like a lot of hard work has been put into it by the design, development and product teams. The fonts used are optimal, the icons and menu bars are well placed, the colors are very friendly to the eye and the standard white background is beautifully adjusted to the user expectations. The sliders are well designed and you can easily find whatever menu/option/feature you are looking for without much hassle.

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.

So far we have not faced any issue while using the software but our customer journey has been breathtaking so far, which obviously i am expecting, should be the case of the support of Zoho Forms as well. However we have explored their support channels; you can easily find the contact us form in the profile slider and there are other resources available with a single click like Help Menu, What's New Menu, Blogs and Forums. However i could not find any live chat or support with the Free version.

Form Assembly allows for advanced data mapping, pre-filling forms with Salesforce data, and working with custom objects. FormAssembly excels in Salesforce Integration, as it is highly specialized and deeply integrated. Often considered the industry leader for Salesforce forms, Formstack has strong integration, but may not offer the same level of granular control as FormAssembly.

Zoho Forms is just as good as Google Forms. I believe that ZF is easier to use. I have not used GF as extensively as ZF. I will be evaluating GF in the very near future. I selected ZF mainly because it easily integrates with its own Zoho applications quickly and with very little difficulty.

• FormAssembly makes it easy to share registration forms with targeted groups of users

• It's very easy to create registration forms quickly

• All positive. Zoho Forms is just another tool from the Zoho toolbox that adds value for us.
• ROI is hard to say since we are a Zoho One user. Providing an amazing customer experience is what we strive for and this tool is part of that customer experience. It may have a small effect within our internal process but it is a customer facing and customer interaction point/application so it is crucial that it performs optimally.
