Which one is for you
Pick Fairing if
- Fits if you run a Shopify store under 200 orders a month
- Works for stores that want answers sent to Klaviyo and Meta
Look elsewhere if
- Tight if orders pass 200 a month, where you move to Core at $49
- Pricey if you want Advanced Attribution at $99 a month or Data Sync at $149 a month on top
- Watch out: cost rises with order volume, and over 30,000 orders is custom
- Not for you if you need general surveys, as it is built around one question
Pick Typeform if
- Fits if you want branded lead forms and quizzes with scoring and branching
- Works for surveys small enough to fit a monthly response cap
Look elsewhere if
- Tight if you stay free, as the plan stops at 10 responses a month across all forms
- Pricey if you get lots of answers or need more people: 1,000 responses and 3 users mean Plus at $56 a month billed yearly
- Not for you if you want forms on your own domain or custom fonts, which are Enterprise only
- Watch out: file uploads, payments and removing the badge all need a paid plan, and Basic covers a single user
- Watch out: the only trial is 14 days of Growth Flow at $266 a month, and it needs a credit card

|---|---|---|
| Value for money | CCore is $49 a month for 201 to 500 orders, in the dearer quarter of forms tools. Advanced Attribution is $99 more and Data Sync $149 more, and price follows order volume. | C$28 a month billed yearly is just above this category's $24 middle, but it buys 100 responses a month and one user. For 1,000 responses and no Typeform badge you need Plus at $56. Thin next to rivals here that don't count responses at all. |
| Free plan and trial | BFree for up to 200 orders a month, plus a 14-day Core trial with no card. A small store can live on it, until orders pass 200. | CUnlimited typeforms, logic and embedding, but a cap of 10 responses a month across all your forms, which you'll hit the first afternoon. The only trial is 14 days of Growth Flow, and it wants a credit card. |
| Features | CIt does the post-checkout question fully, which is a smaller job than a general survey tool. Adaptive follow-ups and warehouse sync are paid add-ons. | BIt covers the whole job and the listing shows no hole in it: branching, variables, scores and price calculations deciding what each person sees, plus video questions and answers, Stripe payments, signatures, Calendly booking and drop-off rates from Business. |
| Ease of use | CNo store rating on record. Shopify install is simple, but connecting analytics and ad tools is yours to set up. | CNo store rating on record, and there's still a form to build, question by question, with logic behind it. Describing it to the AI chatbot and editing the draft is the quick route. |

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.
