Wufoo Alternative: Why Choose Formplus

Wufoo

Due to one reason or the other, you may have to collect data from respondents in offline mode; that is, in areas with poor or no access to the internet. For example, if you're surveying a remote or rural area, chances are the internet connection might be really poor. So how do you handle this?

To use your Wufoo form in offline mode, you need to set up the Device Magic integration. Create the form in your Wufoo account and then add it to Device Magic. This way, you can gather offline answers from respondents—this method can be time-consuming and cumbersom

Formplus allows you to collect data from respondents with poor or no internet connection.

Formplus supports offline data collection directly, without the need for plugins. This means respondents can complete your survey when they have poor internet access or when they are located in remote areas. All the data submitted in offline mode are automatically updated in Formplus servers when the internet connection is restored.

Customization features allow you to change the look and feel of your form when you want to create unique data collection documents like surveys, questionnaires, reports, and the like.

Something to note here is you need to create themes separately in the theme designer before adding them to your form. This can be time-consuming when you are not batch-creating forms; that is, you only want to design a single form . In the free plan, you cannot add your organization's logo to your survey.

Formplus gives you better features that allow you to tweak your form however you like.

On Formplus, you can style your surveys directly without any plugins.

Choose any one of the pre-designed form templates and customize it however you want. From the alignment, font size, style, colour , padding, to the background and layout,

Formplus customization allows a wide range of adjustments to suit your needs. So, go ahead and add background images or change your form theme as you like.

Wufoo

While Wufoo has more than 400 templates in its library, none of these templates are ready to use.

They all look the same in terms of structure, design, and content so, you need to make tons of adjustments before using them.

Formplus has a richer templates library than Wufoo with over 1000 ready-to-use forms, surveys, reports, and sheets, among others.

These samples are organized into industry categories which makes it easy for you to find one that fits into your specific use case.

Formplus templates have beautiful designs and contain real questions that are relevant to the specific context. These questions give you a clear idea of what you should be asking in your surveys or questionnaires.

Wufoo

Sometimes, respondents cannot complete your form at a go so they need to save already inputted responses to resume at a later date.

Unfortunately, there is no save and resume later option on Wufoo.

This means if respondents cannot complete your survey at a go, they'll lose all previous responses and have to start from scratch when they are ready to fill the form.

Formplus allows users to save partially completed forms for completion at a later date.

When a form respondent makes a partial form submission, a link to the partially completed form is sent to the email of the user; this link can be used to access the form when the respondent is ready to complete it.

Wufoo

Both Formplus and Wufoo allow you to automate documents like contracts and invoices to save time.

For Wufoo you need to install and set up "web merge" to allow you automatically generate receipts, contracts, and invoices.

After generating the invoice, you also need another plugin—webhooks, to send the Wufoo form entries over to WebMerge.

Formplus document merge feature doesn't need any plugins—you can automatically generate invoices and receipts with your organization's logo right in the form builder, and save time.

You can locate this feature on the Settings > Document Merge page of your form.

Wufoo

Social media is a powerful tool for opinion gathering and survey amplification.

Wufoo allows you to add Facebook and Twitter buttons at the end of your form. After completing your survey, respondents can use these buttons to share the form with their social media community.

However, you cannot publish survey links on your social media platforms straight from Wufoo, and you can only add the sharing buttons to the form's customization buttons.

After creating your forms and surveys, you can publish their links on your social media platforms directly.

Formplus also allows you to design social media image cards for each platform, which will improve engagement and responses from the members of your community.

Like Wufoo, you can add social media icons to your form—respondents can use these buttons to share your survey on their pages after completing it.

Formplus also allows you to choose the social media icons that users see at the end of your form.
