Feathery vs Paperform (2026): which should you pick?

Pick Feathery if

• Fits if you run onboarding or account opening at a financial or insurance firm
• Works for teams that already use Salesforce or custodians such as Schwab and Fidelity

Look elsewhere if

• Skip it if you want to see a price first, as the pricing page asks for an email
• Not for you if you need a free plan or trial, because only a time-boxed pilot is offered
• Too light for general contact or sign-up forms, since it is pitched at financial services
• Watch out: pricing is mainly based on volume, so costs can rise with use

Pick Paperform if

• Fits if you sell services, bookings or products through a form
• Works for teams who want everyone in on one flat price, as users are unlimited

Look elsewhere if

• Tight if you stay free, with 30 submissions a month, 3 signed documents and a badge you can't remove
• Pricey if you're one person with one busy form, since the first paid plan is $49 a month billed yearly ($59 monthly)
• Pricey if you want your own domain, which costs $20 a month on top of Pro
• Watch out: webhooks, the REST API, custom PDFs, partial submissions and hidden fields all need a paid plan
• Not for you if you need SSO, roles or several workspaces on a small budget, as those start at Business, $124 a month
