123FormBuilder vs. Gravity Forms

In our case we used it in a range of varying scenarios across internal functions as well as for external clients. It is fairly well featured and suited for use across multiple use cases. Albeit we ended up not using the pay features because it was an occasional requirement for us, I think one of the areas where it would be well suited would be processes requiring online payments based on variable logic. The pricing structure ironically makes it less suited for the same scenario for users with limited requirements.

Gravity Forms is fine for general use such as a contact form. It is not suitable for using in conjunction with their PayPal Checkout add-on.

• We could build html forms with little or no html experience. This is empowering.
• We were notified right away when someone completed a form. This was helpful with scheduling workshops, among other things.
• The reporting feature was great, as it was easy for administrators to see results at a glance.

• Gravity Forms seems to do well with accurately sending form submissions to recipients.
• Gravity Form's Drag & Drop builder is easy to use.

• You need to be able to give your customers i.e. me the ability to be able to send an SMS to the consumers filling in our enquiry forms.

• Their PayPal checkout does not work as described.

I like the product, but I am no longer in control of the project where this product was being used. However, I would definitely use 123ContactForm on future products

You can drag and drop to create great forms. It is simple to create and they give you great options you didn't know you wanted to use.

I installed 123ContactForm myself and while I had some issues installing it I was able to visit their website and the troubleshooting information they provided in their faq section. They did offer other support if a user needed additional support, but I found the information provided on their website to be more than sufficient

I think functionality between 123FormBuilder and other options is quite similar, in most cases. Where I found 123FormBuilder to be a significant winner was with regard to ease of use, and overall UX. Robust, simple, accessible, effective, and customizable are the keywords I'd highlight that helped me choose 123FormBuilder with complete confidence. That's not to say the other options will fail you, but you surely can't go wrong with 123FormBuilder.

• While looking at other task request systems like Zoho and Wrike. 123ContactForm has been the most cost-effective tool for building request forms that fit the needs of the creator and user.

• I recommended Gravity Forms to a client that accepts subscription payments online. After purchasing the plugin and the PayPal Checkout add-on, I spent hours and hours trying to get it to sync correctly with PayPal. It never did, so I ended up using PayPal's built-in buttons. Which defeated the whole purpose of purchasing Gravity Forms and the add-on. Gravity Form's support tried to help, but had no explanation as to why the PayPal checkout add-on wasn't working.
