Chose 123FormBuilder
I think functionality between 123FormBuilder and other options is quite similar, in most cases. Where I found 123FormBuilder to be a significant winner was with regard to ease of use, and overall UX. Robust, simple, accessible, effective, and customizable are the keywords I'd …
Chose 123FormBuilder
Looked at Zoho Forms, Google Forms, Form Assembly and a couple of others. In general there is a variety of features and it would not be wise to negatively rate any of the others. But purely from a price-feature mix, we chose to use 123ContactForm over the others and in that …
Chose 123FormBuilder
Compared to JotForm or Woofoo, 123ContactForm offers a much better interface and better flexibility than the other tools. I have used JotForm only to get stumped by their inability to push the limits of the form. As for Woofoo, the level of ease of use in terms of their …
Chose 123FormBuilder
I have used several contact form plugins for WordPress, they are superior to 123ContactForm in that they provide more CRM options, but in terms of ease of installation and ease of use 123ContactForm is a better option for non-development website builders, or site owners that …
Cvent Surveys
Chose Cvent Surveys
I think Cvent surveys feel more secure. It is also a program that we are likely using for the event or meeting already, so it's nice to just use the same program for both things. Cvent surveys are an additional expense which isn't always ideal and can be a hard sell in …
Chose Cvent Surveys
Cvent survey does exactly what we need it to. There is no reason to look at other products. That effort can be used elsewhere. Information that is kept within the same program makes it easier to compare data across the board and certain functions will not have to be repeated …
Chose Cvent Surveys
We preferred having a direct integration vs a third-party.
Chose Cvent Surveys
I've only ever used SurveyMonkey other than Inquisium, and it was just a free version. This has much more versatility than that.
Chose Cvent Surveys
Inquisium suits our business needs. Live Cvent is easy to use and the customer support is top notch. I've used the other products but Cvent was easy to train our entire team to use because we already used Cvent. While it may not be the most robust tool in terms of style it does …
Chose Cvent Surveys
We actually didn't look at any other platforms. Found Cvent through doing research online, had a call with a sales rep, rest was history.
Chose Cvent Surveys
Other survey technologies are not accepted by many of our clients. Cvent is accepted and has allowed us to reach a greater audience within our client base giving us opportunities to improve customer satisfaction where in the past this was missed. Our legacy survey tool is …
Chose Cvent Surveys
Compared to SurveyMonkey, Cvent is a far more robust tool. There are many more options for survey logic, the email platform is superior, and even the templates are more plentiful and professional. When comparing to Qualtrics (and keep in mind, I have only used Qualtrics a …

User Testimonials

Likelihood to Recommend
In our case we used it in a range of varying scenarios across internal functions as well as for external clients. It is fairly well featured and suited for use across multiple use cases. Albeit we ended up not using the pay features because it was an occasional requirement for us, I think one of the areas where it would be well suited would be processes requiring online payments based on variable logic. The pricing structure ironically makes it less suited for the same scenario for users with limited requirements.

Our company needs surveys to give feedback to our speakers. Cvent Surveys allows attendees to give honest and accurate feedback on the spot after a session ends. It is easier to collect the data, send it to our marketing team, and have them send the feedback to each speaker so they know their strengths but also what needs to be worked on.

Pros
  • We could build html forms with little or no html experience. This is empowering.
  • We were notified right away when someone completed a form. This was helpful with scheduling workshops, among other things.
  • The reporting feature was great, as it was easy for administrators to see results at a glance.

  • It allows for clients to ask questions they need answered.
  • It records everything for you and gathers information for both the client and the sales representative to read.
  • It is a middleman for the client and Sales rep. It is a wonderful tool and easy to navigate around. People find it easy and simple to use.

Cons
  • You need to be able to give your customers i.e. me the ability to be able to send an SMS to the consumers filling in our enquiry forms.
Read full review
  • I have had some occasional errors that have come up in the system that don't seem to have an obvious cause. These can be frustrating to overcome, but Cvent support has always been able to resolve these issues.
  • Cvent might be a little to rigid at times on the back-end. It could just be my lack of coding experience, but sometimes the html emails and survey templates can be difficult to make as aesthetically pleasing as I would like.
  • The opening screen for 'Known Surveys' often bothers me because you cannot add additional fields to the "first page" of the survey. This is only if you are not sending the email through Cvent, so it is not a major flaw.

Usability

Read full review
This program is so versatile to be able to do whatever is needed. There isn't a time that I have built a survey that hasn't done exactly what is needed. No matter how complicated the questions are, the data that is put out is easy for leadership to read and understand. That is what is needed. They shouldn't have to go through complex data and spend a lot of time trying to analyze it.

I have not needed to contact support before for this feature in Cvent. The support team for other features have been great though, so I will provide an answer for that. Cvent is on point with their customer care. They’re prompt and make sure the issue is fixed. They will also follow up with you to make sure everything is still working smoothly or if any additional help is needed

I installed 123ContactForm myself and while I had some issues installing it I was able to visit their website and the troubleshooting information they provided in their faq section. They did offer other support if a user needed additional support, but I found the information provided on their website to be more than sufficient

Cvent survey does exactly what we need it to. There is no reason to look at other products. That effort can be used elsewhere. Information that is kept within the same program makes it easier to compare data across the board and certain functions will not have to be repeated from the foundation since most of the information will flow into other programs within Cvent and we won't have to type all the information over again. It saves time, which is not what a lot of people have.

Return on Investment
  • While looking at other task request systems like Zoho and Wrike. 123ContactForm has been the most cost-effective tool for building request forms that fit the needs of the creator and user.

  • Saved a lot of money, once we brought everything to Cvent, we were able to close out other programs and software subscriptions.
  • Seemed a little expensive at first, but once we integrated everything it made much more sense.
  • I've gotten good at navigating around Cvent, which has made operations and getting campaigns out much easier.
