Formsite for Human Services Nonprofits

We needed a dynamic form builder for our services applications in the nonprofit human services sector. We needed to ask complex matrix-style questions and use complex conditional logic, piping, etc. We also wanted to put specific masking requirements on certain question types, like phone numbers, emails, and even numbers within a range, etc. We loved formsite for meeting all of these needs with an affordable, easy-to-use form builder that does not require coding!

PROS

We loved that formsite was easy to use and can capture complex answers without needing to know how to code. Formsite is also affordable and can integrate with other commonly used software programs.

CONS

I wish there was a more seamless integration with SharePoint. Currently, it's more of a OneDrive integration for the results docs. The integration breaks randomly and we'll get a notification that we have to go in and reconnect the integration. Also, we have to use Zapier to capture the data points in a form that goes to an excel doc on a OneDrive account, then is added to a SharePoint list, where the applications are managed (accepted, denied, etc.). It would be much easier if formsite could integrate directly with a Sharepoint list.

Reason for choosing Formsite

Formsite was the most dynamic and most easy to use at the same time. Plumsail had more customizability and the ability to ask more dynamic types of question but was more difficult to use because users need to have some basic coding abilities.

Save and Return feature along with an ease to understand UI = Powerful form building

I enjoyed building forms with Formsite and for the most part, I can do everything I need to do to support my clients needs quickly and far cheaper than custom software development. I would recommend it to anyone to at least evaluate against the many other form building software as a service type systems out there.

PROS

The save and return feature is incredibly useful and was essential to allowing me to build my form so end users could return to see their results and verify their status (after an admin reviewed and approved/denied). It also allowed me to build follow up forms which were a breeze to start using the export/import features.

CONS

The save and return is fantastic, but it only works for a single form. So if you want a user to effectively have a form "library" under one account, its not possible. This can be circumvented by continuing to build on an existing form as needed, just start the end user at the right question.

Reason for choosing Formsite

The save and return feature was critical for my clients needs. I also had experience with Formsite before from previous client engagements and they perform well and provide a rich feature set that I know how to work within.

Easy and Simple Form Capture

While designed primarily as an intake form, our marketing department attempted to use Formsite to provide details for creative work orders with limited success. Formsite worked well for basic webforms, contact data collection, and customer surveys. I would recommend Formsite for any small to medium sized business looking to create webforms and aggregate data via Zapier integrations to more powerful platforms.

PROS

The setup of web forms for lead capture, surveys, and contact data is simple. The administrative back end is straight forward and intuitive. Formsite main features can be navigated without much training. Setting up basic forms is quick and easy, this is the greatest strength of Formsite. Integrations via Zapier allow for greater power when Formsite is applied to automation platforms such as Hubspot for marketing or Google Sheets for "if this then that" workflows.

CONS

There are limitations to Formsite in customization. User permissions were limited, but usable and scalable.

Easy To Create Complicated Forms

I have been using Formsite in 2 different jobs and for years. It is easy to embed the forms and get them very close to how you want them to look. Making the logic driven forms makes us look like a bigger company than we are. There are a lot of use cases for forms from leads to surveys to job applications that we use this for.

PROS

It is easy to build forms with rules and logic. It integrates with an increasing amount of other software platforms and the customer service is great. Being able to fully customize the notifications and success pages is really intuitive. It seems like they have thought of almost everything.

CONS

The design of the forms are a little out of date and don't respond to mobile in as pretty of a way as I would like. There could be more advanced verification of fields too like SSN and matching zip to cities. Also autofill doesn't always work with these but that may be a bug.

Reason for choosing Formsite

I was really comfortable with it and knew it had all of the features I would need. Many form products aren't very flexible but this one is.
