Formstack for Salesforce vs. Time Doctor

- Formstack for Salesforce excels in scenarios where organizations need to capture leads seamlessly. The platform's ability to create customized and branded lead generation forms, coupled with its direct integration with Salesforce, facilitates the smooth transfer of lead data into the CRM system. This is particularly beneficial for marketing teams running campaigns and events.- In scenarios where the primary goal is to collect basic contact information without the need for complex workflows or integrations, the comprehensive features of Formstack may be more than what is required. Simpler tools or solutions might be more appropriate for straightforward contact form needs.

Time Doctor is well suited for certain businesses where some or many of the employees are now working remotely due to the pandemic and post-pandemic times. It is a good way for the employer to keep track of activity and (more or less) keep people honest. For businesses and employees where there are a lot of site visits, travel, etc., Time Doctor is a little impractical since it requires the employee to manually enter in whatever time was spent on tasks performed away from the computer. If an employer is hoping to track that activity, they still need to rely on the employees' honor systems to enter in times and tasks.

• Collecting customer data and keeping it clean and organized

• Tracked time both macro (categories) and micro (down to the project and the tasks)
• Reminded us when we went off task and got lured in via social media
• Provides us with detailed reports to share with joint venture partners, clients and more

• 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

• One thing I would love to see is integration with my cell phone. Time Doctor already has an app, but I want it to automatically capture the time I spend on my phone with clients. For now I have to manually enter in this time and must note when the call started and when it ended.
• Integration into Wave apps where I generate my invoices. I'd like to be able to select a project from Time Doctor in my invoice and have it automatically populate the time I spent on it and the dates I worked on the project rather than manually finding and entering this information.

I use this daily and it is very simple to use. The setup is very easy and customizing the fields is simple enough. Editing it is also very easy to do.

The support was terrible! They never responded in sufficient time and their assistance was always super vague. I never felt like they had an actual solution to my concerns. They were nice, but I don't feel like they were trained in their own system. It felt like I was talking to a wall.

Other than we are happy with the way Time Doctor works for us, no key insights.

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 pros but Jotform is more elaborate

I still use Rescue Time for different reasons. I review my stats once a week by email. I think it's a totally different product. My egg timer keeps me more on task, but it doesn't record my times

• This can lead to time savings, allowing employees to focus on more strategic tasks rather than manual data handling.
• By automating the transfer of data from forms to Salesforce, the platform contributes to improved data accuracy.
• The automation and customization capabilities of Formstack can streamline various processes, from lead generation to internal approvals.

• It helps me to use my time more effectively.
• For a small amount each month I believe I get a huge return on investment in form of traceability of my hours spent. The major factor that made me choose Time Doctor was the price and the value. I don't think I would still be interested if it was more expensive.
