123FormBuilder is a free JotForm alternative<\/strong> offering an intuitive, powerful, and engaging drag-and-drop form-building experience to users of all experience levels. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are many form builders on the market nowadays, each claiming to be the best. But what pushes you to choose one over the other? The features you need, of course. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s examine the features and benefits that separate 123FormBuilder<\/a> from JotForm to provide you with the information you need to make an educated decision. Without further ado, let’s get started!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pricing Tiers Comparison<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Price is one of the most important aspects of looking for new services to add to your portfolio. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both 123FormBuilder and JotForm have a free plan<\/strong> that new users can try as much as they like. This plan is beneficial when users are undecided about a product. Once you get accustomed to the editor and see what features you can access for free, you can upgrade to a version with more needed features: calculations, payments, custom domain, etc.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s see what 123FormBuilder has in store for you first. With the free plan, you can access hundreds of free form templates ready to customize with the drag-and-drop editor, GDPR compliance, digital signature<\/a>, Likert scale, basic form analytics, custom thank you page, and contact list integrations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

123FormBuilder has three paid plans, starting with Gold ($37\/month)<\/strong>, which offers 5,000 submissions per month, 23+ built-in integrations, and features like formula fields, custom reports, an upload field, and no product branding.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our Platinum<\/a> plan ($49\/month)<\/strong> provides 100 forms, 20,000 monthly submissions, unlimited form views, unlimited API calls, custom form domain<\/a> <\/strong>(something JotForm only provides for Enterprise accounts), product field, advanced form analytics and field insights, and payment integration with 15+ processors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Diamond<\/a> plan ($99\/month)<\/strong> offers access to all previous features, plus 200 forms, 100,000 monthly submissions, 1000 fields per form, integration with Salesforce Marketing Cloud, forms accessible from Salesforce, data encryption, and favicon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And for optimal corporate needs, you can request the Enterprise<\/strong> plan, which starts at $225\/month. You have unlimited forms, submissions, fields per form, platform white labeling if needed, SLA and data insurance, HIPAA compliance, in-depth integration with Salesforce services, SSO, priority support, and a dedicated account manager. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

JotForm starts new users with a free plan with access to a form editor, a couple of forms, 100 monthly submissions, and 1,000 form views per month. The Bronze plan ($39\/month)<\/strong> is suitable for those seeking more advanced features, such as 25 forms and 1,000 monthly submissions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Silver plan ($49\/month)<\/strong> offers 50 forms, only 2,500 monthly submissions, 100,000 monthly form views, and a limit of 250 monthly signed documents. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

JotForm\u2019s Gold plan<\/strong> sells for $129\/month and provides only 100 forms, 10,000 monthly submissions, 1 million monthly form views, and 1,000 monthly signed documents. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Large-scale businesses that want unlimited access to most features will go for a custom-priced Enterprise<\/strong> plan. They get unlimited forms, monthly submissions, signed documents, SSO, dedicated support, custom branding and domain, plus HIPAA compliance, just like our JotForm alternative<\/a> offers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Form Creation and Customization<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Both form builders share a similar drag-and-drop<\/a> functionality <\/strong>regarding form creation and customization. It simplifies the job for users with and without form creation knowledge. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s easy to build a form with 123FormBuilder. Once you choose a form template<\/a> or click on New Form, you access the Form Editor. You will see four top-side sections: Create, Set up, Publish<\/em>, and Results<\/em>. When selecting one, you will see a left-side submenu with different features and subfeatures you can access and use. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clicking on a field<\/a> adds it to the form, resulting in a right-side menu where you can further alter that specific field to your liking. You can access the Form Editor on any plan, starting with the free one. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

JotForm has a similar interface. You get to the editor upon choosing your form template. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There, you have three main sections located at the top: Build, Settings<\/em>, and Publish<\/em>. You can arrange and rearrange fields with drag-and-drop and using the left-side menu. Plus, on the right, a button lets you modify the theme as you see fit. It’s all a matter of preference when testing out this form builder or our JotForm alternative. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both form builders have an intuitive interface for building forms. You can make traditional or multipage forms and ask different types of questions\u2014single-answer, short- and long-answer, dropdown, multiple-choice, Likert scale, etc. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both form builders allow conditional logic<\/a><\/strong> and customization. That means you can show or hide fields based on user responses. For example, if someone is filling out a quiz and indicates a specific gender, they will only see questions based on that gender. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Payment Integrations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Payment integration<\/a><\/strong> is one of the most sought-after features for form builders. Our JotForm alternative offers a variety of payment processors. Your 123FormBuilder forms integrate with 15+ payment processors, including staples such as PayPal<\/a>, Stripe<\/a>, Square<\/a>, Authorize<\/a>.net, and FreshBooks<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
