"A Really Cool Extension for Gravity Forms"

5/5

What do you like best about GravityView?

GravityView has a handful of plugins to increase the functionality of Gravity Forms, but I've used it primarily to create advanced data management tools for clients (think directories). Their tools allow you to display specified values of a particular form on the frontend of a site, in a tabular layout, with advanced options for filtering, searching, inline editing and so much more that I'm probably not away of (yet). I first became aware of their product in late 2019 for a project I was working on, and have found so many more uses for the product since then (not to mention all of the crazy, "I wonder if I could this?" ideas that have gone through my mind). Admittedly, I was so impressed by the product that I jumped on a sale offer to purchase a lifetime license (something I NEVER do). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GravityView?

Originally, I felt the product was a bit on the pricey side (when compared to the price of Gravity Forms), but if you're working on projects for clients that need the functionality, it's a no-brainer. With a plethora of functionality demos on their site, and a 30-day money-back guarantee, it's easy to "try before you buy." Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is GravityView solving and how is that benefiting you?

I suppose a directory-like functionality could be created using custom post types in WordPress, but managing thousands of entries like that would be cumbersome. Managing that data in Gravity Forms makes perfect sense, especially if you want staff (or anyone else) to be able to view/edit that data. Outside of custom coding, I don't know how else I would be able to offer this type of solution to my clients that need it. So GravityView's plugins have allowed me to expand my service offering and increase my clientele. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
