Pick Gravity Forms if

How we grade them
| 2.0GPAGravity FormsFair | 2.2GPASuper FormsFair | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | BGraded against its alternatives. Basic is $59 a year for one site with unlimited forms and entries, a fraction of what hosted builders like Jotform or Typeform charge. Stripe and PayPal need Pro at $159 a year, and you need a WordPress site and hosting to run it on. | CNo price is published on the public pages, so we cannot compare it; that sits at C. |
| Free plan and trial | FNothing free and no trial, just an online demo. There are refunds within 30 days, but asking for one switches the license off at once, and a refund isn't a trial anyway. | C15-day trial for one WordPress domain, started from the dashboard. No free plan, and the card requirement is not stated. |
| Features | C30+ field types, conditional logic, multi-page forms, calculations, payments and, on Elite, surveys, quizzes, polls and signatures. The gap is the listing's own: it only runs as a WordPress plugin, so without a WordPress site it does nothing. | CMulti-step forms, calculations, payments, WooCommerce and front-end register and post. PDF Generator and Listings are add-ons. |
| Ease of use | CNo rating on record. Fields are dragged into place inside WordPress, but first you need a self-hosted WordPress site or a WordPress.com Business plan, then the plugin and its add-ons installed, then each form built. | CNo rating on record. You build forms inside WordPress. |
| Platforms and integrations | BIt runs in the browser inside WordPress and connects to Stripe, PayPal, Square, Mailchimp, HubSpot, Salesforce, Zapier and Slack, with a REST API and 500+ hooks for developers. No desktop or phone app of its own. | BWordPress only, with five listed integrations. |
| Best for | forms on your own WordPress site | WordPress forms with calculations and WooCommerce |

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.
