What is Formsite?

Updated

Formsite is an online form builder for creating HTML forms and surveys without coding. You use a drag-and-drop builder to assemble a form, share it through a secure link or embed it on your site, and then receive and process the results. It fits tasks like registrations, customer surveys, order forms, and lead forms, and it also supports payment collection and third-party integrations.

What you can build

Formsite is aimed at anyone who needs to collect structured information online rather than hand-code a form and wire up a backend.

  • Forms and surveys — registrations, customer surveys, order forms, lead forms, and similar data-collection pages.
  • Workflows — the site describes forms, surveys, and workflows as its core output.
  • Branded forms — you can start from pre-made themes and adjust them with Look & Feel tools so the form matches your own branding.

How the building process works

Create

Use the drag-and-drop form builder to lay out your form. You can start from over 100 customizable templates and choose from 40 question types. The builder includes a style editor, file uploads, multi-page conditional logic, calculations, and support for images and logos.

Share

Once built, you share a secure link to the form or embed it into a page on your site. Formsite handles hosting the form and processing the results. Forms are automatically responsive across desktops, tablets, and phones. Sharing options also include QR codes and CAPTCHA spam prevention.

Get results

Results arrive in real time with email notifications. You can export results or send them to third-party services and payment processors, and you can share reports featuring tables and charts.

Payments and integrations

Formsite supports payment collection in two ways: processing payments on your own, or integrating with a payment service. The payment services named on the site are PayPal, Braintree, Authorize.net, Stripe, and Pay by Check. The site states it has processed over $500 million in payments.

Integrations cover services such as Amazon S3, Box, Constant Contact, DocuSign, Dropbox, Google Calendar, Google Drive, Google Sheets, Mailchimp, Microsoft Excel, Microsoft OneDrive, Salesforce, Slack, and Zapier.

Pricing and access

Formsite offers a free trial, and a pricing page is available. The site does not state here that the product is free beyond the trial, so treat the free trial as the entry point and check the pricing page for current plan details and limits.

When Formsite is a good fit

Choose Formsite if you want to:

  • Build forms or surveys quickly without writing code.
  • Have hosting, result processing, and responsive display handled for you.
  • Collect payments through a supported processor.
  • Push submissions into tools you already use, such as Google Sheets, Mailchimp, Salesforce, or Slack.

If you only need a simple static form with no result processing, hosting, or integrations, a lighter option may be enough. If you need payment collection, conditional logic, file uploads, and reporting in one place, Formsite covers those in a single tool.
