Pros

“The platform has made it easier to organize information, manage forms and submissions, and keep track of important tasks. While there are a few areas where navigation could be improved, especially when managing multiple forms, the overall convenience, functionality, and ease of use have made it a very valuable tool.”

Reginald B.

Program Director

“The platform also makes it easy to design, edit, and optimize workflows, helping automate business processes, streamline approvals, and adapt to changing requirements with minimal effort.”

Beverly T.

Accounting Manager

“Its user-friendly interface allows teams to quickly build customized forms, update existing ones, and manage submissions efficiently.”

Accounting Manager

Pros

“I asked dozens of questions while building my first survey, and each time, I received detailed support, including custom CSS to add a CTA button exactly where I needed it on the website.”

Katarzyna J.

Product Development Lead

“I love how they continuously roll out upgrades and enhancements that make the platform even more user-friendly and versatile. Since I started using Paperform years ago, I've had zero downtime—100% uptime has made my workflow seamless.”

Robert R.

Owner

“Templates can be a little finicky to edit to match your brand colors.”

Larisa F.

Clinical Development

Cons

“Managing facilitator availability, complex scheduling, customized dashboards, document repositories, and highly specific workflows can be difficult.”

Felipe P.

Ceo

“After building dozens of forms and onboarding more than 5,000 people, the only issue I’ve encountered was a mismatch between UTC and a user-entered date and time fed from the API.”

Amir N.

Onboarding Architect

“Actually, connected flows in Microsoft Power Automate make things easier for users, but frequent flow failures in Microsoft Power Automate result in wasted time on resubmissions”

Githa M.

Engineer Supervisor

Cons

“My concern with Paperform is that if I need help I can't call a phone number and talk to the customer support team.”

Rhonda P.

Supervisor

“Partly because of the aforementioned flaw and because even the entry level plan is pricy yet devoid of features that should be present at this price point.”
