The learning process is still ongoing, but the support and documentation is there! A+
This plugin offers so much features to that allows it to be used to perform many actions. I love the fact that it works dynamically to output directory content.
The price is somewhat for the average user but overall worth the investment.

Overall, this plugin does amazing things. It is very well put together with a couple minor interface annoyances.
It does everything I need with a graphical interface. The support team is friendly and responsive.
The actions associated with a field value will lose their value if the field value is changed.

Sin duda, una muy buena experiencia comparando este software con otros de creación de formularios, ya que este tiene más características, posibilidades, herramientas muy útiles... Las que más me gustan son que es totalmente responsive, en móviles se ve perfectamente sin variar nada.
Tiene muchas plantillas pre diseñadas que te facilitan mucho l creación del formulario. Los opciones son muy intuitivas, no resulta nada complicado crear tu propio formulario porque enseguida sabes cómo implementar los campos, modificar colores, rellenos...
Como todos los software, tiene su versión de pago, y la versión gratuita se queda un poco corta si quieres crear un formulario profesional.

I'm working with Formidable Forms until 2012, so I've develop every kind of solution with it. We're growing together!
It's constantly in evolution. Growth every year and always offers new features
I would need a perfect union with ACF Pro plugin.

I am able to use my current hosting to operate my organization's databases and not pay 3rd party services monthly expensive fees to do the same job. My organizations entire operations are powered using formidable forms.
The functions and ease of creation allows you to create a simple or a complex comprehensive database on your website, I currently use it to manage my organization.
Currently, the dynamic fields cannot be filtered using a lookup feature which only works for lookup fields, but I believe this can be added in future upgrades.ղ

My experience with Formidable Forms has been straight forward and smooth. The fact that i can build any form with it makes my work much easier
The fact that i can build any form ranging from contact forms, payment forms, surveys, quiz etc with Formidable Forms makes it very cool. I find the drag and drop feature very interesting. Its also easy to use.
I can't think of any problem that i might have had with Formidable Forms. Its pretty slick and easy to use. Although small businesses might have issues with the price, its still worth it.

Allowing people to use complex forms.
How easy it is to make a form. I like that you can make a professional looking form in minutes.
There is a steep learning curve. There is a lot of information on the internet but they should have more full fleshed out examples.

It was relatively great.
What I like most about this software is that users can save long forms and they can also view their entries.
What I like the least about this software is the yearly subscription payment. I am hoping a lifetime access can be given.

Given that I've invested very little time learning it except by trial and error, I thought it was very easy to setup my first quiz and calculated field.
I liked that they had many pre-made templates for a variety of calculators, surveys etc.
It would be nice to be able to switch more quickly from one type of response field to another type without having to recreate the field. (e.g. checkbox to radio button) I could've benefited from easy to find links to tutorials for a type of form. (e.g. how-to setup a calculator)
Thanks for the review Perry! Did you know you can change the field type at the bottom of the field options for most field types? Thanks for the feedback about links to tutorials. We'll work on it!

I like the drag and drop builder, multi-page form, repeater fields, email notification sender, integrations to 3rd party apps, and the customizable styling sheets.
I believe the CSS classes of fields and how they will look in the actual form could be improved.

We've used Formidable forms on various WordPress sites, particularly when the website requires an interactive or more advanced type of form, which Formidable definitely excels at.
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
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.

It has been fantastic. Easy to use for a non-technical business owner.
As a small business owner, I’ve appreciated the way I can implement and use things easily — without having to be an expert developer. I need time to focus on my business strategy not get in the technological weeds of my online platform. With Formidable Forms I can just run my business and the technical operations behind my online presence takes care if itself.
Out of the box spam protection could be better.

Lots of features, nice design attributes, smooth functionality, easily integrates into wordpress site. Better than 90% of other forms I've used.
I struggled getting it set up. maybe it's just me but i thought it could have been easier to implement. I've used half a dozen form plugins on wordpress and there was only one i like more.

Great
Offered modules are perfect. Premade templates are just amazing, saves times and helped to understand that what complex functions can be easily implemented through formidable forms.
Cant think of any critical one at the moment. but there should be more templates available.

1. Easy to use form builder - the most important attribute for us 2. Built in features to create forms for WordPress site that converts 3. High level of customization possible - with multi-page forms, conditional logic, extensive styling options and file upload capabilities 4. East integration with major email automation platforms 5. Loads of templates - grab, modify and launch
1. Stripe and Authorize.net integrations available only on Elite Plan. 2. Coding required for some specific functionalities. For almost all cases, you are covered with the powerful built in functionalities.
