Likelihood to Recommend
It's excellent for small sets of forms, from simple to highly complex It's not good at scale. With over 170 forms now, we desperately need some way to manage and maintain shared content once Cognito does not help. Their approach is that you can copy a working form (great) and modify it to create the next one. That's how we've got so many forms...

Definitely appropriate for us, with <1000 survey responses but some simple logic and routing that we wanted to build in. Nice very visual UI that lets you preview and makes it easy to test. I can't speak to how well it would work with very long, very complex surveys or more rigid work environments.

Pros
  • New Hire Form - It announces the new hire and provides direction to several departments on their needs, computer, phone, security level, etc.
  • Terminations - We use it to shut off security, badges, computers, track phone, electronics, etc.
  • Temp Form - It provides an avenue to enter them into our payroll system for tracking hours, also, for the start and end dates.

Cons
  • We have families of forms with a mix of unique parts and common functionality. Cognito has no ability to copy a field or a section (set of fields) between forms. If you need to update the common functionality, you have to do it separately for each affected form.
  • It seems that the (large and impressive) functionality has outgrown the capabilities provided to manage sets of complex forms that exploit this functionality - such as copying and pasting between forms or being able to define a section in one place and have it appear in many forms (#include)
  • The documentation is incomplete - often have to discover how things work by trial and error
  • A spell checker for content would be nice!

  • Improved correlation of the data between the analytics tool and the responses (i.e. it says 3 responses have been received, but only shows results for 2)

Very friendly and helpful, but typically takes at least one day to respond. However, when they do respond they dive right into the specific form I ask about and tell me exactly how to fix what I need help with

Alternatives Considered
I have not used any other programs like Cognito Forms. I have been with my company for almost two years. I very much like the ease of this system and its capabilities. I like knowing everyone is using the same thing. I do not foresee us making any changes to our current use of Cognito Forms.

We decided to change from SurveyMonkey to SurveyLegend because it is more complete and allows us to have freedom when creating with the templates. Its complete tools allow us to improve texts and photos to make the questions more objective and receive answers. For users, it is possible to answer them from emails or mobile devices so that they get more comfortable and it is possible to improve the data of the analytics.
