Why look for a Jotform alternative?

Jotform’s free plan limits forms, submissions, and features, making it hard for growing teams to scale without paying more.

As your business grows, pricing jumps quickly, forcing small businesses and startups to stretch their budgets sooner than expected.

Forms lack flexibility to fully reflect your brand identity, leaving you with generic designs that don’t engage users.

Modern teams need streamlined processes, but Jotform’s workflows are rigid, slowing down collaboration and efficiency.

Formester vs Jotform

Formester

Formester makes form building simple and powerful. You get advanced features, transparent pricing and real support without the hassle. Create forms fast and focus on growth without confusion or extra costs.

Jotform

Jotform offers many features but often feels complicated. Setup takes time, hidden costs surprise you and support can be slow. For growing teams, the complexity and unclear pricing make form building harder than it should be.

JilsonOrganiser at Vue Conference

I really enjoy Formester. It’s clean and straight-forward and it does well, what it is supposed to do.

Thibaud MartinezOrganiser at Tedx

Went through many form builders for my lead gen company and I will say it is by far the most affordable and customizable form I have found!! 10/10

AlexCustomer Success Manager at Orion Growth Partners

We have been in business for over thirty years and were never happy with our forms until we found Formester. Now, we have clients actually enjoying completing and submitting online forms. If you are looking for a platform to create online forms... look no further – Formester is the best. Your clients will thank you!

BobSenior Web Developer at PixelWorks Innovations

Great software system. Very intuitive and looks absolutely great. Most importantly, I requested features… and the features were implemented within hours. Stellar support that is hands-down better than others. I highly suggest you use Formester… you’re not going to find that with the competition.

ChrisOperations Lead at SummitCloud Software

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.

Costanza CasulloVolunteer at Wato Coding Hub

Formester is one of the best underrated survey tools out there… It’s extremely customizable… Their support is awesome… I absolutely recommend this to anyone looking for an alternative to the usual form creators.

Ye Qi LaiUX Designer at Eastview Consulting

I use Formester for my form-building needs and I’m thoroughly impressed. The platform is rich with features… What really sets them apart is their exceptional customer service (responses typically within 10 minutes). The pricing is also very reasonable… Highly recommended!
