Forms On Fire

Forms are definitely on Fire!!!!

Kommentare: Forms on fire was exactly the middle ground we needed between being offline using paper and developping our own mobile app for internal use. We decided that simply digitizing the forms was the best use of our time and money and it has had a great ROI. Within the first 3 weeks of using FoF we were able to increase productivity and decrease paper to computer entry completely.
Reports that usually took 1 hrs to gather the information and another hour to digitize and publish could be done on the fly during the data gathering phase.

Vorteile:

This software is so easy to use! If you can drag and drop you can make a nice UI and form that is accessible reliably from any mobile platform. We really did have an easy time taking our existing excel sheets, modifying them to a forms on fire friendly format and setting that up. Total effort was about 10 hrs for a form conversion (first time, and done manually).

Nachteile:

We got stuck with a few elements (how to pass data in a certain format) that didn't work, but Forms on fire customer support were available to help us get through it. It turns out it was user error and not Forms on Fire

Streamline Your Data Collection with Forms On Fire

Kommentare: Overall, Forms On Fire is a great tool for businesses or individuals looking for an efficient way to collect and manage data. The intuitive interface and comprehensive feature set make it an ideal choice for those looking to streamline their data collection process. The cost may be a barrier for some, but the powerful features justify the investment.

Vorteile:

Forms On Fire is a powerful and intuitive data collection platform. It offers a wide range of features, including drag-and-drop form building, customizable workflows, and a comprehensive reporting system. The user-friendly interface makes it easy to set up and manage multiple forms quickly and efficiently. It also integrates with existing systems and allows for easy data sharing with third-party applications.

Nachteile:

Although Forms On Fire offers a comprehensive set of features, it may be too complex for some users. The user interface can be a bit intimidating for those who are unfamiliar with web-based applications. Additionally, the cost of the premium version may be too steep for smaller businesses or individuals.

Uncomprehensible for neophyt

Vorteile:

The idea is great and most of all the fact that you can see your work on an app on your phone is super usefull.

Nachteile:

Very very poor design and way too much information. I'm really not a tech guy and I've seen a lot of good reviews so sorry for this bad one but this could've been super usefull for me and Ican't use it because I do not understand anythinig that is going on. I can't put on photos on the app for instance

A User-Friendly Approach to Form Building

Kommentare: I've positive experience with Forms On Fire with its user-friendly interface, customization functions and robust features set. It's ability to streamline data collection and workflow automation is particularly well-received.

Vorteile:

I like most about Forms On Fire are its intuitive and user-friendly interface and drag-and-drop functionality that easy to use and navigate. I also appreciate its comprehensive functionality and advanced features.

Nachteile:

I don't have much dislike about Forms On Fire except of its steep learning curve for some complex features..

Easiest to Implement!

Kommentare: Very pleased with the ease of developing our forms, distributing, updating, and collecting the uploaded data . The drag and drop interface for forms is outstanding and the help files make it easy to develop any workflow you can imagine, very powerful!

Vorteile:

Our team especially liked the openness of the software programming interface, the associated help files, and the superb customer support whenever we had a question. We knew going in that we would have some "special tasks" we would need to implement and Forms On Fire appeared to have the best programming system in place to easily make that happen using our own personnel and not requiring the software company to handle everything at additional cost. The system is so easy it just doesn't require that much support, but if you need it, they are there to help!

Nachteile:

I think the website interface could use a few minor improvements like having data view columns maintain their positions between sessions or refreshes, and perhaps a little more development on the dashboard, although we'll probably develop our own that most of the vendors for this type of software simply don't offer.

In Betracht gezogene Alternativen: Certainty Software, SafetyCulture, GoFormz, FastField, TrueContext und Jolt

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Forms On Fire: We chose Forms On Fire over the competition based on the following: 1- Best Responses to our RFP documentation 2- Wide number of platforms the software will run on 3- Ease of developing the required forms and their ongoing maintenance as our products evolve 4- Most open development environment and help system in place allows us to do what we want, when we want, and not have to have the software vendor do it for us, unless we need them to! 5- Price is one of the best out there and provides excellent value per dollar

I am a huge fan of Forms on Fire

Vorteile:

They essentially created an app for us to be used to create proposals for our gutter company customers. I explained to them what I was envisioning and they delivered beyond my expectations.

Nachteile:

I do not have a single critique or criticism of this company. Anyone I have ever interacted with at the company is wonderfully helpful and competent.

Customer support review

Vorteile:

What really sets this Forms on Fire apart is their incredible customer service. Every interaction we've had has been professional, timely, and solution-oriented. The support team is knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely cares about helping us succeed. They go above and beyond to ensure that every problem is resolved quickly and effectively.

Nachteile:

I have found nothing to dislike about forms on fire.

Absolutely the best

Vorteile:

Saves so much time which saves money for my company.

Nachteile:

Nothing absolutely love it best thing I have purchased

User Friendly

Vorteile:

The app is very user friendly and responsive making it interesing to use.The app has no errors and good customer care

Nachteile:

Forms on Fire cares for its end-user experience to ensure userfirendly processes. Data retrieval is simple to access. Attentive customer service is a guarantee.

Adaptable Platform

Kommentare: Has been excellent. For those familiar with Microsoft Excel the learning curve is gentle and the more one works in the system the more opportunities arise. The support from the Forms on Fire team has been fantastic, better than any other digital platform I've used even outside this space.

Vorteile:

The fact that the platform is a blank slate that allows for a large amount of customization is very important for our organization as it means our digital information management can match the changing circumstances of the work site. The fact as well that it is a no code platform allows for area experts in our field to engage in the development of forms without the need for an extensive IT background.

Nachteile:

While luckily not the largest issue for us, the fact that there is a limit of 50,000 row in the data sources does mean that there can be a risk regarding large scale operations but there do seem to be some work around that we are exploring for our larger systems.

Amazing app!

Kommentare: My overall experience has been great. I’ve been using Forms On Fire for almost 3 years and have no complaints!

Vorteile:

I love how easy the app is and the different apps we have been able to build within forms on fire. It makes our day-to-day easier.

Nachteile:

At this time I cannot think of any features that need improvement.

Very versatile and easy to use. Excellent customer support!

Kommentare: Ease of use as a designer and user. All of my users are very pleased with user experience. Great support team.

Vorteile:

I have used forms on fire for several types of data collection with my team and have had a very positive experience as a form designer and user. The form builder is intuitive and easy to use and very easy to test. I love the fact that they have a windows app, especially when it comes to testing changes on my forms. Make a change, open window app, test and adjust. Anytime I hit a wall and I am not sure what to do, a few minutes spent on the support chat gets me what I need. Forms on fire is flexible, powerful and an economical way to collect the data my team needs from the field.

Nachteile:

Forms on Fire has a very extensive knowledge base, that could be improved by the addition of some short videos that walk users through some of the more complicated tasks. The support information is all there, I just learn easier when I can see it in action.

Easy and Friendly

Kommentare: The app allows me to complete site inspections quickly and accurately identify hazards across the city .
Very easy to use and when I get stuck forms on fire support is there to help when needed.

Vorteile:

This software application allowed us to build a easy to use inspection form that captures information and pictures. the system then turns this data into the final report allowing department managers an easy to read report to identify corrections. the forms on fire app does away more than our IT department allows great ways to capture data this is amazing product.

Nachteile:

The only con is that I am not allowed to use all the awesome features available with this product.

Form Development With Good Sense!

Kommentare: Software allowed our company to create a custom application that is available off and on-line with a business process that follows are customer support commitment.

Vorteile:

We need a Form data capture application that makes best of reusing data and keeping data integrity across form relations. We found Forms On Fire not only is best in logically relating/linking data sources to forms, but it is a developer platform that considers versioning and testing. Though I only have 7 days to build this app, (the last app was built in ZOHO Creator and after working on it for over a week found the data sub form to form relation constraints difficult to work around.) I actually feel like I can be successful in our very import task of providing Export Quotes at an Expo.

GOOD DIY FORM BUILDER

Kommentare: I run a small business and needed a form built. I had looked at other places but most required you to pay them to build a form and were easily over $2,000. A reason I was attracted to Forms on Fire was they provide DIY templates which can be customized. Before trying to build it myself, I enquired about them building my form. Their estimate came back at the price for an 8 hour retainer(Quite Hefty). At hearing that, I Reckon as long as it doesn't take me 80 hours to build it on my own ill be doing ok. I am not a computer savvy person, I didn't know what many of the names of certain features meant. At the time I thought maybe for a person who's used to building forms with binary code or something crazy this may be an "easy" DIY form builder. For a person off the street however, I think it would be very confusing. If it were not for Learning about a free tech support session with one of their staff, I think I would still be banging my head on my desk. I jumped at the chance to get some insight into this brave new world I had entered. I was astoundingly fortunate to have spent the session with Megan who was absolutely delighted to show me through the form and explain the terminology(FYI they have since put together a bunch of youtube video tutorials). After that amazingly helpful session, I then proceeded to build my entire form for the next three hours( it really is easy once you know what the terminology is). The form has since taken maybe another hour to tweak and add some things to make it perfect. All told from beginning to end it has taken five hours(75 hours ahead of schedule...SAVINGS!). Once I was guided through, it actually became fun. I'm so happy with how it turned out, and it has given me a huge advantage over the competition. I would highly recommend watching the videos, taking the support session(I hope you get to spend the session with megan she is a wonderful guide) and build it yourself. The feeling of accomplishment and knowing its built to your exact specifications, saving money but more importantly time is priceless. cheers!!

Forms on Fire Review.

Vorteile:

In one word: flexibility. Basic forms can be developed by almost anybody. More advanced forms can be developed by getting a little creative, though you may need to reach out to Forms on Fire to help implement your desired solution.

Nachteile:

Forms on Fire can be incredibly complex, requiring users to do a lot of learning.

Covers everything from simple to complex

Kommentare: We have been working with Forms On Fire for over 2 years and are very pleased with the excellent service and a great product. We use this software to build our own survey apps which are heavy on data and have lots of photos. It is easy to use and building a form is a fairly simple process. We rely heavily on the connectors to save forms to Box and for customer facing reports. Being able to customize a report in Word is amazing when compared to our old mobile survey system. Our field users love the ease of use and the instant update. Regular enhancements and new features keep expanding its usability. Great product with some of the best customer support you will find!

Vorteile:

Ease of use, great support, easy adoption and deployment

Nachteile:

The mapping feature, using GPS function still needs improvement

Nachteile:

Programming process is ridiculously hard. Once you get a degree in computer programming things might run smoother. But if you have to make a change 6 months later. Go back to school because you would have forgotten all the coding.

Nice peace of software

Kommentare: We use forms on fire as work intructions/reports of the technicians on site.

Vorteile:

The software can be customizable. It allows to create the forms directly from your requirement, don't need third parties.
