Read this page as one judge. Each weighs the same scores by what they care about.

The Data Protection Officer

Weighted verdict

Signs off every form tool a department wants to use and has found health data in a feedback form before. Wants a data processing agreement and a subprocessor list on the vendor's own pages, consent fields and an anonymous mode that drops IP addresses, retention periods that delete on their own, EU hosting the customer can choose, and roles that keep responses away from people who do not need them.

Same scores as the panel view — this lens weights them the way this judge cares.

Form & survey building

How this is scored

What can be built without code: question and field types, conditional logic and branching, piping and hidden fields, calculations, multi-page forms and progress, templates, design and branding, multiple languages, and accessible output for respondents.

0 — Not a form or survey builder; questions cannot be authored in the product.

3 — A builder with the common question types and a few templates; logic, branding or languages are basic or not described.

5 — A drag-and-drop builder with a wide range of question types, conditional logic that shows, hides or skips questions, multi-page forms, a template library, and the customer's logo, colours and fonts.

8 — Advanced logic with piping, hidden fields, calculations and scoring, randomisation, surveys translated into several languages from one master, reusable question libraries, custom CSS or themes, and accessible forms with a named standard (WCAG 2.1 AA or BITV) stated.

10 — Best-in-class authoring: complex research designs (loops, quotas in logic, conjoint or MaxDiff), versioned forms with change history, a published accessibility conformance report, and every element of a form available through the API.

Report an error

The Data Protection Officer

The conditional logic is genuinely deep — field rules that show or hide in real time, subrules, AND/OR connectors, form rules that redirect, and a formula calculator — with more than 3,000 templates and styling down to fonts, padding, backgrounds and corners. We found no public information on a named accessibility standard, multi-page forms, randomisation or reusable question libraries, and the documented custom CSS applies to the platform interface rather than to respondent-facing forms. 2 4 8 11 16

Distribution, response collection & workflows

How this is scored

How forms reach people and what happens to an answer: share links, embedding, QR codes, email invitations with reminders, contact lists and panels, offline or kiosk collection, file uploads, payments and signatures inside the form, notifications, approval or assignment of submissions, and automations that pass a response on to other tools.

0 — No way to collect responses from other people; the product only analyses data collected elsewhere.

3 — A share link and an embed code, with responses visible in the product; invitations, notifications and onward workflows are basic or not described.

5 — Links, embedding and QR codes, email notifications on submission, file uploads, a few native integrations (spreadsheets, CRM, chat) plus a connector service such as Zapier or Make, and either email invitations with reminders or payments inside the form.

8 — Invitations to managed contact lists with reminders and unique links, response quotas and closing rules, offline or kiosk collection, submissions routed for approval or assignment, conditional notifications, documented webhooks and a REST API to read and write responses.

10 — Collection at research and process scale: panel or sample sourcing, multi-channel distribution (email, SMS, web, app intercept) with deduplication, workflows with branching and audit trail, and every response event exposed to the customer's systems in real time with a stated delivery guarantee.

Report an error

The Data Protection Officer

Submissions can be routed for approval with automatic approval and rejection emails, notifications trigger on submission or payment with delays from minutes to months, recipients can be routed conditionally, payments run through sixteen processors including PayPal and Stripe, an electronic signature feature exists, and more than forty-five native integrations plus Zapier pass data onward with API calls metered per plan. We found no public information on invitations to managed contact lists with reminders, QR codes, offline or kiosk collection, or documented webhooks. 2 8 10 11 16

Survey analysis & reporting

How this is scored

What the product does with the answers: live results and charts, filters and segments, cross-tabulation, NPS, CSAT and other standard scores, open-text and sentiment analysis, shareable dashboards and reports, and exports to the formats analysts use (CSV, Excel, SPSS, R).

0 — No view of results inside the product; submissions can only be forwarded or downloaded one at a time.

3 — A table of responses with simple charts per question and a CSV export; filters, comparisons and report sharing are basic or not described.

5 — Charts per question, filters and segments, at least one comparison or cross-tab view, standard scores such as NPS, shareable or exportable reports (PDF, presentation), and exports to CSV and Excel.

8 — Cross-tabulation with significance testing, weighting, open-text coding or sentiment analysis, trend reports across survey waves, dashboards for different audiences with permissions, and SPSS or R exports with labels.

10 — A research-grade analysis environment: statistical models beyond cross-tabs (driver analysis, regression), benchmarks, text analytics with themes the customer can edit, and every analysis reproducible from documented exports or an analytics API.

Report an error

The Data Protection Officer

Custom reports can be assembled field by field with a chosen chart type and widgets, public reports update automatically, and reports can be duplicated, edited or set as default — though they aggregate all entries rather than showing a single respondent. We found no public information on filters and segments, cross-tabulation, standard scores such as NPS, open-text or sentiment analysis, or export formats such as CSV, Excel or SPSS. 13

Hosting choice, teams & portability

How this is scored

What the customer may choose about where and how the product runs and who uses it: a selectable data region or EU-only hosting, self-hosting or an on-premise edition, team workspaces with roles and permissions, single sign-on, an audit log, custom domains and white-labelling, and a complete export of forms and responses that another tool can import.

0 — A single-user tool with no export of forms or responses.

3 — Shared access for a team and a response export; data location, roles and single sign-on are not described.

5 — Hosting location stated with an EU option, team workspaces with at least two roles, single sign-on on a higher plan, a custom domain or removed vendor branding, and an export of all responses.

8 — EU-only hosting selectable per account or a self-hosted edition, granular roles per form or folder, SSO with SAML and user provisioning, an audit log, white-labelling, and forms and responses exportable in a documented format with an API.

10 — Full control over operation: an open-source or on-premise edition with feature parity, customer-chosen region per workspace, administrative APIs, a documented migration path in and out, and an uptime commitment with a published status history.

Report an error

The Data Protection Officer

An EU option exists as a separate signup site hosted by AWS in Germany, Enterprise plans choose between US and European storage, and single sign-on with SAML and OpenID Connect, custom user roles, a tamper-proof audit trail over logins, deletions, field edits and submissions, white-labelling with custom domain and a guaranteed 99.99% uptime for Enterprise customers are all stated. We found no public information on a documented export format for forms and responses or on user provisioning, so portability out is less evidenced than control in. 3 5 6 16 17

European sovereignty

How this is scored

Who the contracting entity and the parent company are, where forms and responses are hosted, and who the subprocessors are (hosting, email delivery, payment providers, analytics, AI features). Independently sourced by the sovereignty pipeline; responses often carry personal and sometimes special-category data, so the whole chain counts, not only the database.

0 — Non-EU vendor and contracting entity, hosting unstated, subprocessors unnamed, and no data processing agreement offered.

3 — A privacy policy and a data processing agreement exist, but hosting location is unstated or non-EU and the subprocessors are not listed.

5 — EU hosting available and an EU contracting entity or EU representative, but parts of the chain (email, analytics, AI features, support) run through non-EU providers without a stated safeguard.

8 — EU hosting on named infrastructure, EU contracting entity, subprocessors listed with their locations, a data processing agreement published, and security certifications (ISO 27001, SOC 2) stated.

10 — Sovereign end to end and evidenced: European ownership, entity, hosting and every subprocessor, data export and deletion documented, and certifications published with their scope rather than implied.

Report an error

The Data Protection Officer

The contracting entity is 123FormBuilder S.R.L. under Romanian law with disputes in Romanian courts, hosting can sit on named AWS infrastructure in Frankfurt or Germany, and ISO 27001 and ISO 9001 certifications and standard contractual clauses are stated. No subprocessor list with locations is published beyond the hosting, I found no public information on a data processing agreement on the captured pages, and AWS remains a US-headquartered provider subject to the US CLOUD Act regardless of server region; the captured pages announce the company joining forces with Kiteworks without stating the resulting ownership. 3 4 5 6

Report an error

Pricing transparency

How this is scored

Whether a buyer can compute the real annual cost from public pages alone: price per plan and per user, response or submission limits and what happens above them, which features (logic, branding removal, SSO, EU hosting, analysis modules) need a higher plan, add-ons, minimum term and the free tier's limits.

0 — No public prices at all; every customer is a sales call.

3 — A starting price or a free tier exists, but how cost scales with users, responses or features is unclear.

5 — Plans are public with prices and their main limits (users, responses, forms), but at least one commonly needed piece (SSO, EU hosting, extra responses, branding removal) is unpriced or "on request".

8 — Every plan priced publicly with its limits, overage or extra-response prices, feature differences per plan in a comparison table, billing period, VAT treatment and cancellation terms stated.

10 — Complete price computability: annual cost derivable for a given number of users, responses and features, with every add-on, enterprise option, support level and data-return term published.

Report an error

The Data Protection Officer

Plan prices and limits are public in a comparison table — Basic free, Gold $37, Platinum $49, Diamond $99 before the 50% yearly discount, with monthly submissions from 100 to 100,000, fields per form, users, integrations, notification templates and API calls per plan — and VAT treatment, automatic renewal 14 days before term end, the 30-day money-back guarantee and its exclusions are all stated. The Enterprise and Compliance tiers are starting at $225 and $255 per user per month billed yearly with no monthly option and the minimum-user question left unanswered on the page, and we found no public information on overage or extra-response prices, so the top end cannot be computed from public pages alone. 2 3 6 16
