## Ninja Forms Reviews
  ### 1. My Experience With Ninja Forms

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Eliud  I. | Company Admin, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 31, 2021

**What do you like best about Ninja Forms?**

Having used Ninja Forms for over 2 years, I have realized it is a capable software. First, there are enough templates that makes creating online forms easy. Secondly, the tool comes with a great user interface and customizing it is easy . Finally, the tool comes at a bargain and therefore it is a must have.

**What do you dislike about Ninja Forms?**

Since Ninja Forms has always worked, I have no reasons to complain.

**Recommendations to others considering Ninja Forms:**

Ninja Forms has been working well for us as an online forms creation tool, and therefore I recommend it. Another reason to go for this tool is that it is affordable.

**What problems is Ninja Forms solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We implemented this tool as our primary online forms creator. It comes with the necessary features, and I cannot regret the decision we made 3 years ago.

**Official Response from Fike Komala:**

> Hi Eliud,

Thank you so much for leaving a review for us here! It made our day :D

  ### 2. All-rounded form plugin meets every requirements

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Insurance | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 21, 2020

**What do you like best about Ninja Forms?**

This form plugin provides rich features meet all our requirements. The best thing is it provides number of options for span protection and we love Honeypot the most.

**What do you dislike about Ninja Forms?**

The features are great but each add-on feature comes with an additional cost. The pricing model is different from most similar solutions in the market and this is what we dislike.

**Recommendations to others considering Ninja Forms:**

You may first consider what features are required in your project and then check if such features are included in basic features or add-on features. If you need lots of add-on features, the cost of adopting Ninja Forms could be high and there are many other solutions on market that you can choose from.

**What problems is Ninja Forms solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We used a free solution before moving to Ninja Forms but the free solution had a major defect in spam protection. We then moved to Ninja Forms which clear us from spams.

  ### 3. Robust tool for creating forms on your Wordpress site

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Facilities Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 07, 2020

**What do you like best about Ninja Forms?**

I like that the form submissions are available to download and export to excel so that I can accurately track all of my submissions.

**What do you dislike about Ninja Forms?**

I had some trouble with fine-tuning the appearance of the form, so there is extra white space that I can't seem to remove.  Other than that, the forms themselves work great.

**What problems is Ninja Forms solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I utilize the add-on tool for advanced analytics so I can see fields like "URL referrer" on my web submissions when they are emailed to me.  This allows me to better track the source of the web lead.

**Official Response from Fike Komala:**

> Hi there,

Thank you for taking the time to review us :)  Regarding the appearance of your form, you can take a look at this detailed guide https://ninjaforms.com/blog/add-custom-css-to-wordpress-forms/ or contact our support directly.

  ### 4. A great form builder. Can get costly.

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Marketing and Advertising | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 02, 2019

**What do you like best about Ninja Forms?**

Ninja Forms is an incredible form building tool. It simplifies the form building process, has an incredible builder UI (that still needs some work but is nice), and is very customizable. The best part is that it includes some pre-designed light/dark styles so it isn't 100% bare bones. Best of all, the basic version if FREE.

**What do you dislike about Ninja Forms?**

There are a few things I dislike a bout Ninja Forms. The first is the giant "Ninja" title in the backend of my client's sites. While I love it and think this is fun, there's something slightly unprofessional about telling my clients to simply "click in the Ninja button." Secondly, Ninja Forms is incredibly extendable. The downside is that extensions can get quite costly.

**Recommendations to others considering Ninja Forms:**

Ninja Forms is a great tool for somebody looking to get a great, clean, simple form up and running asap with little-to-no custom work needed.

**What problems is Ninja Forms solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Quick and easy form integration with pre-designed styles and easily customizable via CSS.

**Official Response from Fike Komala:**

> Thank you for taking the time to review us 😊

  ### 5. Solid WordPress Forms Plugin, good alternative to Gravity Forms.

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Marshall O. | Interactive Director, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 28, 2019

**What do you like best about Ninja Forms?**

Ninja Forms makes is easy to do multi-paged forms that indicate your progress as you answer pages of queestions. The plugin also has a good save for later feature. The plugin has an easy to use and teach others drag and drop admin interface.

**What do you dislike about Ninja Forms?**

Support and community isn't quite as large as Gravity Forms, however the developers are quick to respond to questions/support issues. We standardized on Gravity Forms a few years ago, however after using the plugin recently it has come a long way and is a very viable useful tool on wordpress sites. The developer  also accept additional functionality requests and will develop custom beta's for users with specific needs for a reasonable cost.

**Recommendations to others considering Ninja Forms:**

If you want something that's easy to learn and setup custom forms on your wordpress website this is a great plugin for it. It's maintained well and the developers genuinely care about it's success and their users.

**What problems is Ninja Forms solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Easy client editable forms for Wordpress websites. Multi-paged forms for application submission for a technical schools enrollment form.

**Official Response from Fike Komala:**

  ### 6. A form builder with a black belt. Getting ninja with it.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Design | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 28, 2019

**What do you like best about Ninja Forms?**

The drag and drop form builder is one of the easiest to use. I previously used Contact Form 7, and don't think I could go back now that I have Ninja Form. I've recently been using the form for member application forms which would have been a major headache for other form builders.

**What do you dislike about Ninja Forms?**

Not a dislike, but I will say Ninja form may be a little on the overly robust side. Some of the basic functions can be hard to find—but once you know where they are, you are good to go. An example, emails default send to the admin email, but often times thats not the place they need to go.

**Recommendations to others considering Ninja Forms:**

Yes! Ninja forms was recommended to me a few weeks ago and I am loving every minute of it. 

**What problems is Ninja Forms solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Creating intuitive and user friendly forms with smooth automation for clients. I trust that the forms will be delivered, and that no user inquiry will be overlooked. 

**Official Response from Fike Komala:**

> Thank you for your kind words! Happy to hear that you're loving every minute of your time with us.

  ### 8. Easy to set up, free and fast

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Design | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 28, 2019

**What do you like best about Ninja Forms?**

You dont need too much experience with this plugin to create and run a form in your wordpress website. I downloaded from wordpress repository in few seconds. In minutes i had this form working.

**What do you dislike about Ninja Forms?**

I wanted to use a text to click and show the privacy policy inside the website but i can´t. I can link the privacy policy or put inside a "info icon".

**Recommendations to others considering Ninja Forms:**

Easier to use and set up than CF 7.

**What problems is Ninja Forms solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I needed to I needed to offer a way to contact visitors to my website and comply with the data protection law

  ### 9. Easy to Use on Both the Front End and Backend

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Education Management | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 14, 2018

**What do you like best about Ninja Forms?**

I like how easy it is to create a form.  The free version plugin has many usable fields that I didn't feel I needed to purchase the membership.  I know that down the road I will have no problem purchasing it, but for starters the free version works very well.

**What do you dislike about Ninja Forms?**

I would have liked to see when creating a form, the option for 'website'.  I was a little surprised that it seemed to have everything else (phone number, address etc.) but to not have the ability for my clients to enter their email, which is something we very highly promote doing, made the form setup more difficult.  I was a bit disappointed by that.

**Recommendations to others considering Ninja Forms:**

Use if you are looking for an easy form builder.  You will be able to create a very simple, clean looking form for people to fill out.  You can use it for event registration (not currently using) and I'm guessing it would be just as easy to use.

**What problems is Ninja Forms solving and how is that benefiting you?**

For me, this is making a very simplified form that is clean looking, for my clients to enter their information for a directory that we keep.  I think it is so easy to use that it just makes sense for all technical levels.

**Official Response from Fike Komala:**

> Thank you so much for your detailed review! We're glad that you enjoyed using Ninja Forms :)

**Reviewed Date:** January 23, 2019

I use Ninja Forms to make surveys in polls in websites that I create for clients. My favorite part about ninja forms is the event registration form. I make websites for a lot of events and I use the ninja forms event registration form or questionnaire template with ease!

**What do you dislike about Ninja Forms?**

I wish I had more control of how the survey will look, the options are pretty basic.

**What problems is Ninja Forms solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I am solving the problem of needing to create polls and questionnaires on websites and webpages. I can now do it with ease with Ninja Forms.
