Cognito Forms definitely is a powerful tool. Microsoft Forms is one that we have also used but isnt available in your drop down selection above. I like how they are pretty easy to use and it has a lot of functionality that makes the outcome of a survey and the like pretty spot …

Likelihood to Recommend
It's excellent for small sets of forms, from simple to highly complex It's not good at scale. With over 170 forms now, we desperately need some way to manage and maintain shared content once Cognito does not help. Their approach is that you can copy a working form (great) and modify it to create the next one. That's how we've got so many forms...

Pros
  • New Hire Form - It announces the new hire and provides direction to several departments on their needs, computer, phone, security level, etc.
  • Terminations - We use it to shut off security, badges, computers, track phone, electronics, etc.
  • Temp Form - It provides an avenue to enter them into our payroll system for tracking hours, also, for the start and end dates.

Cons
  • We have families of forms with a mix of unique parts and common functionality. Cognito has no ability to copy a field or a section (set of fields) between forms. If you need to update the common functionality, you have to do it separately for each affected form.
  • It seems that the (large and impressive) functionality has outgrown the capabilities provided to manage sets of complex forms that exploit this functionality - such as copying and pasting between forms or being able to define a section in one place and have it appear in many forms (#include)
  • The documentation is incomplete - often have to discover how things work by trial and error
  • A spell checker for content would be nice!

Very friendly and helpful, but typically takes at least one day to respond. However, when they do respond they dive right into the specific form I ask about and tell me exactly how to fix what I need help with
