Jotform
Jotform is the most feature-rich form builder: over 10,000 templates, payments, signatures, and PDF output.
Jotform is a form builder with an extensive range of functions: classic forms, payment processing, electronic signatures, PDF generation, and data management tables. Over 10,000 ready-made templates cover almost every conceivable use case, from order forms to registration forms.
Medical practices use it for patient intake forms, clubs handle registrations including payment, and tradespeople collect order approvals via signature. Its strength lies in its excellent value for money: even with the free plan, you get 5 forms with 100 responses per month, and the paid plans remain fair afterwards.
Typeform looks more elegant and guides respondents better through the form, whereas Jotform appears rather functional and plain. The interface can seem cluttered in places due to its many features, and the German translation is a bit clunky in some areas. GDPR options like EU data residency are available, though sometimes only in higher-tier plans.
This is the right choice if you need many forms with practical extras like payment or signatures and are mindful of your budget. For design-heavy marketing funnels, Typeform or Heyflow are a better fit.
