Top Rated GoCanvas Alternatives
We use Canvas to record field service cases. The ability to build a different app, or form, for the various contracts we hold saves quite a bit of money. In the past we've always run into apps that can provide some of the support we need, but lack a key piece. That left us to invent a work around, which often increases data variance, or purchase a secondary program. The support we've received from Canvas has also been top notch. No waiting around for days to receive a call back on a issue. They often give us calls just to check on how things are going and to tell us about new features. The latest being a calendar that was added to the dispatch screen. This lets us schedule and easily see how our field services are working the day. The price is extremely competitive for this sort of software as well. Its hard to list one feature as what we like best. All around the software has been great asset to our company. It also integrates with Zapier, which is just a bonus. There is a api that canvas freely offers if you want to do it the old fashioned way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
One of our main clients has a tendency to omit key items when discussing our contracts, then after we start they have new requirements for data capturing. The only issue we've run into has to do with these ocurrances. Apps cannot be changed without a version update, but once the version is updated data cannot be pulled from multiple versions at once. They may have new headers or be in a different order, which is why it is difficult to fix. However, when you're dealing with thousands of entries it is not always possible to do one of these updates. Also the regular search feature only searches the last 500 entries to a particular app. You can search everything when using the advanced search. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the user-friendly platform. GoCanvas has been great to utilize for various fillable forms in the service field on a daily basis. It is nice having the option to integrate the platform with other systems, such as PestPac for automatic document uploads. I rarely see any hiccups or issues utilizing Canvas. The syncing each time you log in makes sure that you are using the most latest version of the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I would like to have the ability to use the GoCanvas Website to create submissions, vs solely the app. I am a chromebook user and am unable to download the Canvas App to my laptop and have to use my phone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
GoCanvas is an easy to use program. Very efficient in generating documents and contracts for our clients. Entering information is made easy with click by click data entry and the documents and contracts look great! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The only downside I've come across was having to start over if I made a mistake with a proposal, because the prepoulated costs won't update. However, this could be an error on my part! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's a bit pricier than some of the alternatives on the market but with the right implementaiton strategy, the ROI is there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
How easy it is to create an app in a testing environment, distribute the app to users in different environments and perform updates. It is super easy to customize an app for specific conditions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The pdf creator does not natively allow for nested tables. I had to split my tables up making the pdf look clunkier than it otherwise could be. Also creating boxes around specific PDF fields is clunky and not very good looking. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Very customizable and I could design my apps as I needed them and could edit easly Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
lacking dashboard to manage status's makes it difficult to summerize and track time Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

GoCanvas and it's integration team has helped me develop a service app that works with my business software and saves so much time by allowing us to import the technician's time and parts into our invoices. We are always developing new apps to help our sales and service departments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I wish they had the online tech support chat available like they used to. It was very beneficial to me when I just had a quick question that I could ask and move on. Now I have to make a ticket, submit it or call someone and wait for a call back. The online chat was GREAT! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ability to adjust the drop-down menus and revise the content at a mid-range cost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
For someone who has zero technical skills, it is easy to navigate through the App and when needed, I get timely and friendly support from the team! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Based on the purpose for which we use Go Canvass, the per-user licensing structure doesn't justify the cost - benefit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The software allows us to organize our data.
Mobilize & Spell check feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Not very easy to sort data.
We use Gocanvas for Test request submissions and find that the request number is not showing until the request is accepted or rejected. It'd be nice to see the test number in advance.
