Pros:

The form builder works perfectly, and the level of Customer Service I have received is outstanding!! I would highly recommend!!

Cons:

Any issues I had was due to my platform setup not due to the builder itself. But [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] was very helpful when trying to resolve the issues.

PHP Form Builder: A good starting point for a PHP code editor

3.0 3 years ago

Comments: A very good tool for beginner PHP/HTML developers but other tools on the market are still leading in many Web development aspects.

Pros:

PHP form builder streamlines the HTML form creation and automatically generates the PHP code to make this process very easy on developers with minimal experience in PHP/HTML coding. Definitely customizing the generated code would require a good knowledge in PHP but the general form development can be easily delegated to PHP Form builder. I have tried the real time validation and it is very sophisticated. Some specific data formats such as certain credit card formats are not supported but all in all it is very productive in real time validation. Very suitable for creating different types of Web Forms and with different HTTP methods. Moreover I discovered that it supports the generation of PHP code for connecting to SQL database and embedding SQL queries. Pre-built templates specifically for different HTML components makes this tool very appealing for general Web site development. It is very easy to integrate SQL connectivity code to simplify the creation of PHP code that connects to relational database management systems such as Oracle, MySQL, and MSSQL Server. Also it is very easy to integrate with Apache and IIS.

Cons:

The drag and drop feature is a bit crippled. It is not easy to allow for the generation of every functionality in a server side script such as PHP with pure drag and drop. But it is a good foundation for further development on this front. Other tools on the market from Adobe and Microsoft are way more advanced in terms of Web component drag and drop and pre-built HTML templates.

Thanks for your review Wassim. Just for your information: Credit card validation is available easily with the Form Validation's credit card validator (data-fv-credit-card=true) - https://formvalidation.io/guide/validators/credit-card/ About the drag and drop: I try to find a balance between simplicity of use, which is important, and the richness of the possibilities offered. If you have any suggestions for specific improvements they are welcome.

Great for Data Entry and Processing

5.0 5 years ago

Comments: I built a Horse Racing results and competition system purely for my own use with my family and it has worked for two years with hardly any problems. These problems have actually been my fault and not the software . I have used several of the form types to run my system but many are not used as they did not suit the workflow of my system. Neverless the small price that I paid for this software means that the effort in writing my system has been greatly reduced because the form building is done for me

Pros:

The easy to use choices for various form types and styles all of which have good examples to base your design on. The documentation is very well laid out and contains a lot of information that is a great help. The author is very good at responding to questions and help in getting started or wanting to do something that is slightly different from the examples

Cons:

This is not really a bad point in my view but others may see it. The software has a lot of different choices for a form that you can possibly use so actually making the correct choice could be a bit more difficult because of this.

Powerful PHP Form Builder

5.0 5 years ago

Comments: The overall experience has been great. It has been used for 99% of the forms that we have on our site. Once we learned how to use the form builder object and its boundaries, it Helped us quickly create uniform looking UIs with predictable results. Customer support has always been good. Response times are within 24-48 hours.

Pros:

• Lots of different plugins, like Tiny MCE, File Upload, Date pickers etc... • Ability to customize the plugins (e.g. adding a caption to the file uploader) • Support for both Bootstrap 3/4 and other popular HTML/CSS frameworks. • Dependency inputs • Ability to create custom validations • Plenty of example forms on the doc site where you can view the source of the form and replicate it.

Cons:

• Not easy to to create complex layouts that aren't top-down without injecting the HTML into the form builder. You can't simply print an input field inside your HTML/template. You must build the entire form using the class public methods. • The licensing model and upgrades can be somewhat confusing, but it works. • The navigation in the online docs could be simplified to quickly find what you're looking for.

Thanks for your review. Just a point of clarification: "You can't simply print an input field inside your HTML/template. You must build the entire form using the class public methods." that's not right. PHP Form Builder allows you to create any independent form element and then display it. For example: <?php $form->addInput(...); echo $form->html; ?> This is the method used to add fields dynamically.

My best PHP library

5.0 5 years ago

Comments: The library has a lot of features and integrates external libraries for form validation, text editing, uploading, checking phone numbers, captcha ... Form development is complex for developers and this library integrates everything you need to simplify this work.

Pros:

As a web developer of business tools, I develop a lot of forms. I started using PHP Form Builder when I launched my activity in 2015. The library is constantly evolving to integrate with recent frameworks and by adding new plug-ins. A drag and drop editor is now available with which it is possible to quickly prepare a form. This library saves me incredible time. The developer is attentive and responsive.

Cons:

Simplified integration with Git would be more convenient when upgrading.

Hello Afif, I perfectly remember you, because I worked for you for hours, for free, and on many things concerning your own project, not related to PHP Form Builder. We exchanged a total of 27 emails) You were very happy until I told you that you should hire a freelancer. Please don't say that no one helps, this is a lie.

The flexibilty of this PHP-based web form builder is top-notch! If any problems arise, the developer is gracious and willing to help whenever possible to ensure your customized form will work properly and to your expectations.

This form builder tool has been perfect for my online business. It was super easy to implement on my Shopify site and I could customize the size, layout, questions, and colors of the form!

“Excellent PHP Form Builder”

5.0 4 years ago

Comments: I was able to easily incorporate a back-end Ecommerce management framework that helps us to add and update diverse content on our website.

Pros:

I'm currently using this script on several websites, and neither I nor any of my visitors have expressed any dissatisfaction with the forms available on my sites. New great features are occasionally added, which is a huge plus.

Cons:

Without having extensive php expertise, it helped me to easily rewrite an old php application using more modern technology. The models and samples are helpful because they eliminate the need to start from scratch while remaining simple to use compared to other more complicated and heavy systems. It's a smart guide for small to medium projects. In addition, the service was outstanding.

Excellent tool to quickly develop php pages

5.0 5 years ago

Comments: I was able to quickly implement a back-end church maintenance system which allows adding and updating various dynamic content to our website.

Pros:

It allowed me to quickly rewrite an old php application using the more modern technologies without having an extensive php experience. The templates and examples are useful and avoid having to code from scratch while still being easy to start with versus other more complex and heavy frameworks. For simple to medium projects, it is a great tool. Also, the support from [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] was incredibly good.

Cons:

More template examples that access back-end databases would be nice she there was only one at the time.

A great application for the easy installation on web forms

5.0 5 years ago

Comments: Saved a lot of dev time on simple contact forms that could be created with the WYSIWYG editor

Pros:

It was easy of use and easy to adjust CSS styling, the price point was also good.

Cons:

File upload option on form was flash based – or was the last time I used it. When I needed form input fields next to one another on the same line the validation caused issues with alignment.
