Testimonials

Formester is simple enough for non-developers and sophisticated enough for developers. I'd say being able to choose between simplicity and complexity is one of this product's strengths. In addition, the founder is available to answer questions and doubts, which does not happen every day.

I was searching for a long time for a product I could use to send newsletters and surveys to my database. I tried so many different types of software and I found many of them difficult to use and slow to learn how to operate. But Formester was super easy to set up, and the usability is seamless! I highly recommend!
