Considered Both Products
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.
WorkflowMax
Chose WorkflowMax
It was overwhelming to configure ConnectWise Manage and was pricey compared to WorkflowMax, which was well embraced by all our employees.
Chose WorkflowMax
I think workflowmax does a little more than Thomson Reuters workflow because they have the additional feature of employee tracking for payroll use. Thomson Reuters does a good job at getting a project from start to finish, but workflowmax gives better reports and allows more …
Chose WorkflowMax
Loan Assistant is a virtual business, entirely operated in the cloud. We do not have an office. Team members are located in diverse locations such as Munich, Canada and Sri Lanka as well as various locations in Australia. WorkflowMax is what ties us together. The fact that the …
Chose WorkflowMax
I'm not sure if it was by Ascentis or not, and it may have been an old version, but we used a program called Timekeeper. It was very outdated, difficult to use, and didn't provide easily producible reports. WorkflowMax is infinitely better to use for our business.
Chose WorkflowMax
I made comparisons with two Legal Practice Management systems, InfinityLaw and OneLaw. These systems were more expensive and had functionality/modules which we did not require. I am experienced with WorkflowMax so that was a key factor, along with pricing. I also felt it was …
Chose WorkflowMax
It's been so many years now I don't remember. I haven't needed to look anywhere else. I'm happy with WorkflowMax.
Chose WorkflowMax
Not as easily configured for the architecture and design field.
Chose WorkflowMax
I chose WorkflowMax because it seamlessly integrated with my accounting system Xero
Chose WorkflowMax
We tried a couple of solutions before settling on WorkflowMax, we chose WorkflowMax for as it did what we needed without being over complicated.

Chose WorkflowMax
WorkflowMax is much much easier than Streamtime, much more affordable and easier to try out and see if it meets your needs. Streamtime is a great comprehensive product but we lost a year's subscription in investment because we couldn't get answers to the support questions we …
Chose WorkflowMax
WorkflowMax was the first program I evaluated and it suited our business from the word go. There was no need to look elsewhere.
Chose WorkflowMax
Archioffice is clunky by comparison and quite regimented in what you can do or not. WorkflowMax offers quite a high degree of flexibility by comparison. Neither offers perfect graphics for invoice presentation (yet) whereas WorkflowMax's is quite acceptable or presentable. AO …
Chose WorkflowMax
I didn't get an option in the menu above for JobBag which was the previous system we used. My IT/production manager heard of WorkflowMax and invited the team to do a presentation. JobBag was not fulfilling our needs and we also wanted to move to a cloud-based system which could …
Chose WorkflowMax
I have only used Synergy and whilst this is good, the cost of Synergy was far too great for my practice.
Chose WorkflowMax
We trialed several time tracking options, WorkflowMax won as it was the most feature rich, allowed us to take up additional users as our business grew and plugs directly into Xero, allowing for a reduction in number of hours spent in the land of accounting.
Chose WorkflowMax
The previous programs I used are not listed. But having had to use two different programs to store client data and one for doing the quoting and invoicing was very time consuming. Client details and job details needed to be recorded in both programs, so multiple entries of data …
Chose WorkflowMax
In terms of CRM I always found Capsule to be clunky and difficult to use. WorkflowMax makes it easy for me to gather all the relevant info about our clients in one place with the document manager and also the custom fields that we can add in. I have been able to analyse where …
Chose WorkflowMax
More comprehensive than both of the above - better reporting, more flexible, better customisation.

WorkflowMax is a good solution for the architecture and design profession in that it allows for multiple ways to track a project, apply time to a project, and invoice against a project. The ability to do staffing forecasting and future planning fills a need that most firms in this profession require.

  • Great for managing teams which are not in one spot. Awesome for small or growing businesses with employees who might work from home.
  • Really good for teams to keep up with where a project is at against the time left to achieve the goal
  • Great for keeping all the information for each project in one spot.

Cons
  • 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.

  • Integration with inventory - there are a lot of companies out there which provide a service which includes selling items either purchased or held in stock or "kitted"
  • User permission levels need to be more flexible and ideally closely tied to Xero
  • Two way integration with Xero - ability to import invoices to specific jobs
  • Ability to save pdfs to purchase orders, invoices (like Xero)

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
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.

Decide how to breakdown your ongoing jobs - are they monthly recurring or annual broken into chunks? What are you going to give clients i.e. how will your proposals and invoices look?

Alternatives Considered
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
  • 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.
Read full review
  • The time the company saves by using employees efficiently on each project makes the purchase of this software worthwhile. You can clearly verify how much time the staff spends on each project, with each client, and you can compare whether it is profitable or not the hours invested, thus increasing your profits.
