Reviews: What People Think About FormConnect Pro

Rating: 5/5
After spending several days researching simplified forms-oriented apps with a light database capability and strong import/export I decided on FormsConnect and was rewarded with near instantaneous ROI and business benefit with very little learning curve. The forms designer is pure brilliance and simplicity and the overall interface instinctive to use. The import and export is extensive so you have complete control over your data— native format, xml, csv, pdf, html— it doesn’t get better than that and even zips-up your images. Camera roll and camera integration is seamless. The Dropbox feature allows you to easily export and snapshot your forms database frequently giving you comfort as you load large amounts of data into the app. I’ve used the app extensively, it has been 100% stable.

There is a crash problem. The app functions are very basic at best, especially the field options. UI is what you get and the 5 form themes cannot be adjusted. Online resources is basic and glazes some of the basics. Text fields editing appears to be limited to the 1 font, using a single color and style choice. They limit the table field to subscription while their competitor Tap Forms offers it in the same priced paid app. Also you cannot adjust field layers so that fillable portions are on top without deleting and re-adding fields constantly. Online documentation and videos seem to be incomplete with even the basics. Like what is the PDF Text box option for when you can enter text whether it’s on or off.
To be fair a lot of use cases do not require a lot of features, so this app might be enough to meet your goals. I am reviewing the paid and free app (not the subscription services or customer support). So I recommend trying the free one first with one month of subscription ($2) before committing to paid (or sticking with subscription). They do bug fix updates so I imagine the crash problem should disappear. They also do not collect data which is nice.

It’s a great app for designing forms! But it’s has some issues for me.
1. App is not user friendly if using with multiple devices. For example if you like working on an iPad in the office & iPhone when out on the road the app will not sync. You basically have to email the data entered on device(1) to device(2). Once you start working on device(2) the data on device(1) will be old and you’ll have to email the newer data on device(2) back to device(1). So basically you will have to keep sending things back and forth to yourself very often. This is easy until you forget to send something once, then you will have a large list of data to scroll through to find out which one you didn’t send.
2. If you add a record and use a dropbox drive you can’t really update that file. The app will just keep creating a new file for the same record in your dropbox drive every time you export it.
3. File lookup. If you keep records using numeric file names you will find that the app dose not keep things in numerical order. After about 100 files it’s getting very hard to look up file and to keep the data up-to-date on two devices.
4. If you plan using this as your only invoice tool... forget it!
You can create excellent invoices but the app does not have a feature to mark an invoice as PAID or overdue. Also you have to get out the good old calculator to total up all your invoices manually.
