Formidable Forms

Vorteile

The best part about Formidable Forms is that you have the capability to design your forms any way that you want to. You can have your forms automatically notify you when someone fills them out, and you can setup an automatic email responder regarding however they filled out the form. It makes your work easier. Automate your work, so that you spend less time working and more time making money.

Nachteile

The renewal price for the highest plan is really high. I would like it to come down to $250 yearly or less. Otherwise, I may have to make a change in the future. As a entrepreneur and starting out on my own while supporting 5 kids and my wife, it's not easy to continue paying with such high costs.

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Formidable Forms

Vorteile

Relatively easy to use, with a lot of advanced features. It's great but overkill for what most users will need from a forms plugin.

Nachteile

Support was difficult to work with when I did have issues. They would send back solutions unrelated to my issues, if I send downloads or videos as reference they would not watch or download them before answering me, and multiple times their solution was "don't use other plugins." I've only had to contact them a couple times in two years and both times I got the same representative, so hopefully it's not a company-wide issue.It's really a shame, because I love the plugin itself, but that kind of support doesn't give me a lot of confidence when it comes to using it on client sites. Hopefully they can get those issues under control, it has a lot of potential if so!

Vorteile

Formidable is a great WordPress form plugin at its' core, and comes packed with a ton of features that other form plugins try to charge for. If you only need basic forms, you won't find a better plugin that's well-built and easy to use as Formidable.

The paid version of Formidable is also awesome, with some pretty nifty features such as pageable (sliding) forms, and 3rd party integrations

Nachteile

If you're a developer who needs to make style customization and modifications, Formidable will give you quite the headache. Given the limitations of the plugin, and the way the code is structured, some basic CSS styling takes significantly more work than it should.

Vorteile

The features I use most are the API interface, actions, and filters. The ability to access these features were the deciding options for my selection of formidable.

Nachteile

Would like to see more control on submit buttons and modal dialogs

Vorteile

For my new website, I was searching for a WordPress form builder when I came across Formidable Forms. It is by far the most effective form builder I've ever utilized. It offers every feature I desired and more. With all of these capabilities, my site is much more professional-looking!

Nachteile

I am not proficient in writing code, therefore I struggle with assignments requiring bespoke code, but there are many samples available, which helps. There is nothing that I dislike. As a volunteer with a full-time job, I just do not have the time to pursue additional self-education.
