The range of options and facilities offered by Cognito Forms is outstanding; powerful forms based on conditional logic, good design options and payment taking all make for a presuasive package. Support is speedy and helpful. Thank you!

I am really wondering why this plugin is not downloaded that much. It is really a very powerfull and full featured plug. Even in the free version you can create wonderful forms. It is very simple to create them and there are a lot of parameters you can play with. And no, I am not working for this company and no I don't get paid for this review 🙂 I hope you guys keep up the good work with this amazing plugin!

Do not expect award-winning customer service from Cognito. Expect it to be slow and repetitive with no desire to help you or find a solution. Possibly the worst service ever from a SaaS product.

First, the reading challenged chook clearly never used the plugin. SMH I used Cognito Forms before looking at it as a plugin. As a non-programer, I was able to do things with them that I have not seen any other form creator do with the ease that they have at a great price. I can take CC payments from my site without using some complicated shopping cart. I never played with CSS to do more formating but have seen some examples that others have done and I will be having my developer make some changes to add some extra spice.
