Views — displaying form data on your frontend as tables, charts, or custom layouts. This is Formidable's killer feature and we don't have it yet. Advanced calculations for quote builders and pricing forms. They've been around longer and have more edge-case features for complex use cases.
Native CRM integration. Every form submission creates a contact, tracks in a pipeline, and can trigger email sequences. Formidable is a form builder; we're a form builder that actually helps you close leads. Also: block editor native (not a proprietary builder), free conditional logic, and our Pro includes full CRM Pro access.
Building quote calculators or complex application forms? Formidable is excellent. Need to display submitted data publicly? Formidable. But if you're capturing leads and want them automatically organized in a CRM with deal tracking and follow-up sequences — that's us. Different tools for different jobs.
