Formidable FormsReviews of formidableforms.com

Forms are simply unreliable, they don't work with Cache programs, and Formidable response is to turn off features. Meanwhile, their own WEBSITE is broken. To the point that I had issues with one of their forms, and then went to support to report it and couldn't get the support form to work. This is NOT custom code, this is Formidables own form. Formidable forms is not very reliable, and I'm not sure I even trust them any more as a contact us page. These are Form breaking bugs. When we use custom code, things get worse. Formidable changes things, breaking our forms again, and causing our entire website to stop working. We report this, and they tell us to turn off Anti-spam features. Which is not really the solution, as we get spammed now. And that is nothing to say about the extremely expensive program $400 /year, and how the "applications" are unfinished. Specifically, the "Applications" lack basic refinement. Like for instance, the LinkedIN profile links do no verification, and the help text for LinkedIN profiles only shows how to link individual profiles, and not company profiles (for things like their business listings). This makes this a mess, and we are constantly improving everything Formidable provides. Simply said, I wish we didn't use this, and I will never develop another application using formidable.

The product is good, but stops working when your license expires. No, you're not paying renewal to get updates and support. It will actually go back to free version functionality if you don't renew. The front-end will work, but you will not be able to make any changes to forms that use pro features. It's funny because the product that you paid for doesn't need any 3rd party resources to work, but it will stop working anyway, only to force your payment. You can't just give up updates and support by not renewing and have your last version running. You will not even be able to download your last version that you paid for. They now effectively charge not for the product, but for the access to the product. Which means COMPLETE VENDOR LOCK-IN. Everything you build with this plugin in pro version will forever be in their hands. You either pay the price they come up with each year, or face a complete rebuild from scratch. Oh, and for renewal you will also have to pay double than what you paid for the first year. This should give you some idea about the company.

this company doubled their price in a year and double all the other forms companies. Their support is just ok. They wanted double the price to renew my subscription and wp-forms is better and more user friendly. Use wp-forms. They are saying their reply that it’s only for the first year. I’ve been buying this form for about five years. So this is a lie. Also when I canceled the price immediately dropped 50%.

They are not genuine. They say USD139. But charging USD279+179 on the same day. Not reliable. I am afraid to continue
