"Don't waste time or money on any other form builder"
What do you like best about Formidable Forms?

You can do really complex things quite easily. For example, you can have a form that users can fill out, which then generates a draft CPT, which you can review before Publish. Then using Formidable's Views, you can take information from forms and display it anywhere, conditionally, styled on a page, or only for Admins' view.

What I REALLY like best is that it's clear what integrations you get, and their integrations aren't odd 3rd party developers whose prices all vary. ALL the extensions and integrations are made BY Formidable. Support is all in one place, no one can pass the buck, and their support knows all of it.

What do you dislike about Formidable Forms?

It is pricey, but even their free version is better than the other free form builders. Plus, Formidable's competitors don't tell you that you will have to pay extra, even on the highest plan, to get add-ons and that those add-ons are from an entirely different company. So while Formidable can seem expensive, it ends up being much more cost-effective in the long run.

What problems is Formidable Forms solving and how is that benefiting you?

It can do anything. It can connect anything. It's really just fabulous.

I use it for a local food pantry's website, allowing people to place their pantry orders online and the pantry volunteers can easily see orders in the custom reports created with Views.

I use it for the local Board of REALTOR's website for agents to submit Open House info. It creates a new Post in the CPT for Open Houses, then the Board's secretary just gives it a quick review and changes the Post from Draft to Published

"Great forms plug in!"
What do you like best about Formidable Forms?

Setting up Formidable Forms is very easy. Aside from that, one of my favorite aspects is that it offers some ARIA capabilities to increase Google Pagespeed scores. If you have a website that needs Accessibility features, Formidable Forms is for you! From my research, no other form plugins offer this.

What do you dislike about Formidable Forms?

My least favorite part is that I can't shorten the space in between fields. This can make my contact forms longer (vertically) than I'd like. They do offer some spacing customizations for padding and margins, but not this specific one.

What problems is Formidable Forms solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use Formidable Forms for several different websites in different industries. One of the problems it solves is the ARIA test for a website that requires some enhanced Accessibility features. I also like that it integrates nicely with Stripe and Zapier. I've had to reach out to their customer support a few times, and they've been more than helpful thus far!
