The ease of building forms is the greatest advantage when it comes to CALDERA FORM. It integrates well with WordPress and there is a drag-and-drop builder available with it. No prior knowledge or coding is required to build forms using Caldera. There are several add-ons and integrations available as elements along with the WordPress plugin. You just have to drag those elements to the form and organize them according to your needs and configure them, that's what is needed to create a good form. On the other hand, there are several integrations available, including MailChimp, Aweber, PayPal, and everything. You can also customize the forms by changing the text type and colors to get the desired look. For form emails, there are several options available, including email delivery statistics and detailed reports. You can also export the form in PDF format. They provide priority support for their product and respond very quickly to support tickets. The product documentation is also detailed enough. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Caldera Forms? The price is not at all cheap for what the program offers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Caldera Forms: As drawbacks, I would highlight that there are certain features that do not work as I expected. An example would be the CDN, which in theory is designed to speed up the process, but nevertheless, it doesn't work, perhaps it could be due to our own CDN. The translation of forms does not work for us and we have to copy the forms and translate them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 8/9/2018 "Best free contact forms plugin" 4.5/5 What do you like best about Caldera Forms? After trying a lot of free plugins for wordpress i found Caldera Forms. I like that its very complex plugin, its useful for people who want something simple but also for people who want something more advanced. Also its free that i a great plus. It has a paid version but its not needed unless you want some extra features. Work with Ajax , file upload , conditional logic and you have a nice video-tutorials on their website. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Caldera Forms? The plugin its great overall but i found some fails. For example you cannot control the tab order. Example : when a client its viewing the form and click for one field to the next. I look a lot into this trouble and try so many things but nothing help it at all. Also another dissavantage can be that if you want to manage it profesional way you need to learn a bit , the software its easy if you use basic functions but when it comes to do some serious stuff you have to learn a bit how to use it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Caldera Forms: I would recommend anyone to use it , its free you wont lost nothing trying it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Caldera Forms solving and how is that benefiting you? I can create multiple form contacts that i use for the people its registering on my website , also i create separate forms for users that are already registered to introduce some information in them. Also we make an form for people who want request job so they can upload they cv and information about the job requested easy and fast. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 8/3/2018 "It has completely changed our online forms" 5/5 What do you like best about Caldera Forms? Caldera forms not only has greatly improved the contact forms we already had, it has also allowed us to use forms for processes we had no idea would be possible, for example, we use it to request changes on our website or catalogs internally. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Caldera Forms? Some resources did not work in our installation, I was not responsible for configuring it but I heard that they had difficulties with some functions like translation. As a user and administrator of only a couple of forms, I have not encountered any problems personally. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Caldera Forms: If you use WordPress, don't think twice, we've tried many solutions and Caldera is undoubtedly the best. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Caldera Forms solving and how is that benefiting you? The intention was to use it as a contact form where the email would go to one or another salesperson according to the region. Then we expanded it to include other departments in the same form. We ended up having just one form and then added internal processes like catalog changes or development suggestions, things we never imagined we could do with a free form.

RV Really real V. Designer Marketing and Advertising Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 7/31/2018 "Caldera took our contact form to the next level!" 5/5 What do you like best about Caldera Forms? Conditions and variables, you can make complex logic schemes with it, for example, a contact form that sends the e-mail to a different user depending on the topic and/or region selected or even a product configurator where the user can select the configuration he needs before sending it. (both real case scenarios Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Caldera Forms? The only problem I find with Caldera forms is the current inability to integrate / embed it into other pages (a different page than the wordpress installation its running in), we have a wordpress webpage in beta but the only part being used in production is its forms. We would love to integrate it in our current muse-based webpage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 8/2/2018 "Caldera takes your forms to a new level" 5/5 What do you like best about Caldera Forms? Variables and conditions, with these resources, rare in a free system, you can create dynamic forms much more advanced than a traditional static form. You can, for example, show or hide questions according to the answers/selections of previous fields or, for example, make the responses go to one recipient or another also according to the data entered or selected. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Caldera Forms? We had issues with the CDN included in the plugin, but it was newly launched, so we disabled it and haven't tried again to see if it works now, since we have our own CDN solution. The translation of forms didn't work as it should either; we replicated the forms, translated them, and added them to the corresponding language page. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Caldera Forms: although not all of its functions were useful to us, it is quite better than all the other options we tried, if it doesn't work, try disabling the CDN, we had problems with that function as well as with the included tool for displaying forms in multiple languages at once. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Caldera Forms solving and how is that benefiting you? We have gone from having 15 contact forms (in 3 languages) to only one (per language since the included translation didn't work for us, so it's a total of 3 forms). Additionally, we use it to receive configurations of patch cords that were not possible with a static form. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

DD David D. Graphic Designer Automotive Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 7/31/2018 "A incredibly powerful forms plugin" 5/5 What do you like best about Caldera Forms? Its logic-based engine, with Caldera forms is possible to make very advanced forms that change its contents or behaviour according to pre-selected logical conditions... for example you can hide or display fields according to the previous selection or even change the recipient's email using the same tool. Its quite impressive that it still manage to be free! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Caldera Forms? Some new features does not work as expected such as the built-in CDN that suppose to make it faster but break it instead, (maybe our own CDN has something to do with this), also, the forms translations does not worked for us, we just replicated and translated the desired forms instead... so in the end it does meet all our needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Caldera Forms: Dont stay just on the surface... take yoiur time to check its conditional logics Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Caldera Forms solving and how is that benefiting you? We always had missing information when asking changes to our catalog, we created a form with required fields and problem solved.

Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 8/13/2018 "Excellent free Forms plugin with advanced features." 4.5/5 What do you like best about Caldera Forms? Without a doubt, the best thing about Caldera Forms is its ability to create dynamic forms that adapt according to the responses users gave to previous questions... Additionally, you can "program it" to send to different email addresses, depending on the answers given. It also allows you to show or hide fields according to established rules... it is a VERY recommendable plugin. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Caldera Forms? The default content distribution systems (CDN) did not work for us, nor did the multi-language form function, although they were quite new features at the time and we did not try them again since we found a way to make it work for us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Caldera Forms: It is undoubtedly the best form plugin available for WordPress, and it's free, it's worth trying. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Caldera Forms solving and how is that benefiting you? Mainly a contact form on the website, which is sent to different emails according to the selected topic or region... we have also used it for some internal processes of the company that we had not planned to do through the web initially, but it has served us phenomenally for that.
