Which one is for you

Pick 123FormBuilder if

  • Fits if you take card payments through a form and already use Stripe or PayPal
  • Works for Salesforce users who want form entries to land in Salesforce

Look elsewhere if

  • Tight if you stay on the free plan, with 100 submissions a month and 10 fields a form
  • Watch out: the paid prices are shown at 50% off a higher crossed-out price, with no end date given
  • Pricey if you add people, because extra user licenses cost more on every paid plan
  • Skip it if you want your branding removed for free, as that starts on Gold

Pick Wufoo if

  • Fits if you need a simple registration, contact or order form on your website
  • Works for organizations that want built-in reports on their form entries

Look elsewhere if

  • Tight if you stay free: 5 forms, 100 entries a month, 10 fields a form, no file storage, and forms switch off past the limit
  • Skip it if you take payments on a budget, since that needs Professional at $33.25 a month billed annually
  • Not for you if you work as a team on Starter, which covers a single user; 5 users start on Professional
  • Watch out: paid accounts pay $0.05 for each entry over the monthly limit
  • Too light for forms that need signatures, and field encryption, password protection and Google Analytics wait for Professional

Value for money
CGold is $18.50 a month billed yearly, inside the $14 to $34 band where most form tools sit. Platinum is $24.50 and Diamond $49.50.
B$16.25 a month billed annually puts it right at the edge of this category's cheapest quarter, with file uploads, form rules and integrations in. It buys 10 forms, 1,000 entries and 1 user, payments need Professional at $33.25, and extra entries are $0.05 each.
Free plan and trial
CBasic is free for 5 forms but caps you at 100 submissions a month, 10 fields a form and 1,000 form views, with 123FormBuilder branding.
CFree with no time limit, but the caps bite straight away: 5 forms, 100 entries a month, 10 fields per form, 1 user, and no file storage at all. Pass the entry limit and your forms are switched off.
Features

How this page was made

  • The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
  • The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
  • Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
  • The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
