Considered Both Products
Crelate
Chose Crelate
My two favorite systems are Crelate and Recruitee.
  • From my experience, Crelate is the best full-service database because it allows you to track Business Development and candidate activity
  • Recruitee is very effective as an applicant tracking system
Chose Crelate
  • Easier to use, modern, supports drag and drop. Easy to set up and use. Fewer keystrokes
  • better support than zoho, not as good (but getting there) as PCR
  • Crelate is a smaller company, nimble and has ear of the customer
Jotform
Chose Jotform
Jotform works better for our small business with the excellent free features
Chose Jotform
Not used any other products besides Google Forms.
Chose Jotform
Jotform is easier for the customers to use. They don't require any plug-ins or special procedures to be able to fill out the form and send it back to us. Adobe was more steps, and didn't always work as we expected. Making changes to the forms were also difficult after the fact.
Chose Jotform
More question types, conditions, calculated fields.
Chose Jotform
Allows anyone to use this platform
Chose Jotform
Jotform is so much more versatile that Google Forms, which we originally used. Google Forms was blocked by some of our users, where we have not had that problem with Jotform.
Chose Jotform
Jotform is an all-inclusive platform. Google lacks the features, templates, and form fields that are crucial in a form builder for any business. The branding and customization is a level far above what Google offers. I wouldn't go back to Google after working with Jotform as I …
Chose Jotform
Jotform looks more professional when the form is complete, I like being able to have questions side by side and on cards, as opposed to the stacked option google forms provides. I also like the logo addition and customisation options on Jotform. But the main advantage over …
Chose Jotform
I think it's better than mailchimp. Similar to Zapier in that it's just very sleak and user friendly but Jotform even more so. Wix is awesome too to be fair but yeah I'd say Jotform is up there with all of these. Better than mailchimp which can be really frustrating for me. …
Chose Jotform
API integration is smooth and possibility of customization are really really complete. Above all also the final user does not have problem in using the form
Chose Jotform
Google Forms and Microsoft SharePoint
Chose Jotform
We just cannot compare. Jotform is way ahead of the others: much more customization, options, logic... Jotform is just way better.
Chose Jotform
Docusign is more well known for signing legal documents across large enterprise but it was difficult to setup and get started on. Compared to Docusign, Jotform was much easier to build, design and create our first form which we were able to embed on our website straight away. …
Chose Jotform
Jotform's free tier seems stronger than some of the entry-level tiers of other products, which is why we decided to test it.
Chose Jotform
Jotform vs Google
- Submissions are organized nicely in Jotform
- Jotform has creative freedom. Google doesn't have as many question options and editing abilities.
Chose Jotform
Jotform has so many more features to choose from when creating a form or survey and the way you get your data is unbeatable as far as it collecting it and putting it together to have and discuss the submissions. The basic free option is also better. You get way more submissions …
Chose Jotform
DigiSigner does not offer a free option.
Chose Jotform
Although Calendly excels in appointment scheduling, Jotform surpasses it by providing a comprehensive suite of features at an affordable rate, making it an ideal choice for emerging businesses looking to maximize value.
Chose Jotform
I have used Paperform which was hard to use and did not offer a free version. I have also tried Typeform but had to pay for the ability for my customers to upload a photo.
Chose Jotform
Jotform is abysmal and unintuitive compared to fillout.com. Its customer service is also abysmal. The feature set at Jotform is nothing special compared to alternatives. The service cost is on par with or more expensive than alternatives. There is no reason to use Jotform …
Chose Jotform
Jotform offers better integration where you can publicly list the form for anyone with a link can submit informaiton and we are able to get full PDF reports on those worksheets. Nothing currently does something as simple as this. Jotform's user experience is a whole lot better.

Likelihood to Recommend
Crelate Talent is well suited for applicant management. It also works functionally well with other job boards and websites such as LinkedIn, Glassdoor, Indeed, ZipRecruiter, etc. Crelate Talent seems to be mainly used for a mid- to large-scale business rather than a small business, for an applicant tracking system, as the management features work best with an existing candidate pool.

Cons
  • Would love the option to add profile pictures

  • I would love for Jotform to offer an a la carte for some of the products like maybe we pay for more form views and submissions but not all the other stuff.
  • Flexibility in css.
  • More options in the name field, maybe I want the last name first or for it to be a full one entry box.
  • A phone number entry field.

Usability

It is very user-friendly and intuitive. The interface is very simple and straightforward. The elements are easily accessible even without having any prior knowledge of the interface. The customer support is incredibly awesome. They respond to you within 24-48hrs tops. They also provide a list of questions and answers that have already been asked.

Support Rating
Usually the Crelate support is very responsive and quick to fix any problems that arise. I've personally seen emails of the threads where Crelate support was quick to resolve problems and act courteously while doing so. While I have never called their line, it seems that their phone support is also well experienced.
Read full review
Their support is truly awful and negligent [in my opinion]. It's rare for me to get so mad as to write a review about it but given what we do, I think it's necessary to document it. We work in mental health and having client data [transmitted] through the API correctly can be a matter of life and death for someone in crisis. We have had repeated issues with this in JotForm and reset the integration multiple times and yet it continues. [In my experience] tags don't transmit, complete contacts are absent, or parts of data [are] missing despite being mapped. [Again, per my experience] their support will initially respond and then you hear nothing. It's been a huge issue and we are leaving them as a result. [I feel] it's truly infuriating and negligent.

Had to opt for Jotform to open in a separate window for some of my phones as being intergrated into my own site caused restricted viewing problems on some devices like mobiles.

Compared to Google and Microsoft, Jotform has a lot more features. I particularly love the e-signature because it makes the form feel more trustworthy for our team.
When compared to the other form builders, it is frankly too expensive for us to use them, while Jotform has just enough features for casual users like us.

Return on Investment
  • Can more easily organize our candidates and we have a lot of info at our fingertips - this translates to quicker processes which is positive
  • We keep all our notes on Crelate - very useful for the whole team to see
  • We have multiple team members scheduling so it really helps to see all the emails that have gone out, to ensure there's no overlap

  • It saved me time. Within minutes I was able to create and share forms to collect demographic data.
  • While struggling to use another software, I thought of Jotform and it was able to assist me with collating the data I had to confirm results previously obtained.
  • I could not easily identify what new information was provided in a resubmission by a respondent.
