Pros

“I have used Google Forms when organizing events such as webinars and seminars, both for collecting participant information and gathering responses after the webinar.”
RG

Rashad G.

Various roles

“I love that it offers unlimited forms and responses without any hidden paywalls, allowing me to build functional, professional-looking forms with zero technical expertise required.”

Marquita V.

Sales Manager

I also really like the built in “conditional logic” , like the page branching based on what someone answers, and that makes it easier to design custom user routes, or whatever you wanna call it. Plus because it’s all cloud based, team editing feels smooth, and when you capture real time responses the automated summary charts are really handy.

Pros

“Useful tool for survey. But it is not easy for those who have not got coding background.”
MT

Minh T.

PhD Candidate

“I recently requested technical support and I am very surprised of how quickly and precisely they answered.”
LF

Lucila F.

Associate Professor

“During the entire period of use, I encountered no difficulties”
IA

Iurie A.

Expert

Cons

“Lack of white labeling and branding, and missing some advanced features like complex skip logic, and specified field types such as e-signature”
JL

Jerry L.

Lead Project Manager

“It also lacks **sophisticated logic features**, such as the ability to perform complex mathematical calculations within the form or provide detailed "save and continue" functionality for longer entries.”
Verified reviewer profile picture

Swarnika A.

Research Scholar

“The options of complex employee scheduling and the possibility of managing several class schedules are practically absent, and specialized customer care for our small education facility is unavailable.”
BK

Blerta K.

Language Instructor

Cons

“Old fashioned and hard to use UI with plenty of bug. ”
IB

Ian B.

CEO

“The fact that if a survey was not completed, the next call we ran through the survey with picked up where the incomplete one didn't finish at and we had to press the previous button all the way back to the beginning and redo the surveys.”
Verified reviewer profile picture

Chris Q.

CTO

“Some customizations are really difficult to hande.”
