FormRouter vs Jotform

FormRouter.NET hosts online forms and collects submissions for organizations to retrieve without programming. Its Simple Form Builder creates HTML forms, and the service supports PDF, HTML5, Excel, ASP, and ASP.NET forms. A PDF viewer converts forms to HTML5 for filling, signing, and submission on PCs, Macs, iPads, iPhones, and Android devices. Accounts include tools for managing forms, alerts, files, and reports; alerts can be triggered when a form is submitted. Responses can be downloaded or sent to destinations such as SharePoint, Access, Excel, SQL Server, OpenOffice Calc, ODBC databases, Salesforce, SugarCRM, text, and XML. FormRouter says submissions are encrypted and routed to its server, where designated users can retrieve aggregated results according to permissions. An optional account upgrade adds secure email alerts using 128-bit encryption. An ASP.NET utility allows forms to be hosted on a customer's server while using FormRouter for data capture. The service also offers form development, training, technical support, and consulting.

Jotform is a web and mobile form and workflow platform with products including Form Builder, Jotform Apps, Tables, Inbox, Mobile App, Sign, Workflows, and AI Agents. Forms support quizzes, payment collection, file uploads, multiple embed options, conditional logic, API access, and document templates. Jotform lists integrations for CRM, storage, payments, email, and automations, and advertises more than 150 integrations on its homepage. The free Starter plan costs nothing and includes five forms, 100 monthly submissions, 100 MB upload space, 1,000 monthly form views, 500 stored submissions, and 10 monthly payment submissions. Starter forms and signed documents carry Jotform branding, and raising the plan limits requires an upgrade. Bronze costs $39 a month; subscriptions are available monthly or yearly and renew automatically unless canceled. Jotform says it uses Google Cloud and AWS and complies with GDPR and CCPA. HIPAA features are available on Gold and Enterprise, while Enterprise is the only multiuser plan and includes enhanced security, custom domains, and SSO.
