If your are a programmer, you can do about everything you need related to forms with Formidable. There is a rich set of features and functions making everything possible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There use to be a powerful support site with public Q&A available on which we were able to search on a subject and often find an answer, since a similar problem had been solved already. Also, the team support was small but terrific. Today, there is no such public Q&A database available and the support is correct but no longer awful. Also, the pricing is discouraging for small businesses, particularly when you need some add ons which are available in higher end packages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There are 2 very important aspects about Formidsble Forms: 1. The support and availability is among the best for any WP plugin, 2. The functionality and control to create a great user experience is unmatched for both developers and drag and drop users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There are many form builders out there and many are comparable, Formidable does have a slight learning curve because it works differently than other form builders but once you get it you won’t look back. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Two of the biggest things I like about Formidable Forms is the ability to have "views" built it without third party plugins and the ability to edit the HTML of fields - this is especially helpful if converting from Contact Form & where there was some custom layouts Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I have been using Formidable Forms since 2011 and as such have an older license that does not include all the plugins which sometime creates limitations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Formidable's purpose is simple enough - easy design interface, controls in plain English, and even some advanced filters to get you along. As a plugin that you can use to create frontends to SQL databases, and an entire universe of PHP customization, make this a truly Formidable plugin. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Views are easy to make, but a little difficult to make pretty. If you know basic HTML, then doing a table with some rows is easy enough, and the output looks as expected. There is another plugin called wpDataTables that makes the marriage complete! Easily add super powerful data display and editing capabilities to front-end users with a few clicks.

Formidable is super user friendly (we have numerous staff that design forms now who are not web designers) and at the same time can go deeper with custom HTML, conditional logic, custom CSS, math calculations, etc... The builder is drag and drop easy, results are emailed, exported as CSV, displayed on pages, or whatever you need. It's amazing!
I've now used this plugin on dozens of sites over the years and never once have I regretted it. It always works, always stands up to the project's needs, and the support has been amazing when rarely needed to be called on. Seriously, they are the best support team I've seen for any plugin I've ever seen. Super responsive and super helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The only issue (if I had to pick one) would be that they no longer offer pro plans for a flat fee as it is now a yearly fee, but that's totally justifiable as they need an ongoing income stream to support their business.
There are great examples of other code and things you can do on their website, but with so many people using this plugin, it seems like a community site would be cool to share ideas, examples, builds, etc if you want to really build a community of users. This would be different than a chat based site like their Slack channel, rather a forum. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I love all the features that Formidable Forms has to offer. Plus, they make it pretty user-friendly to create all sorts of forms quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Some of the payment gateway integration is a little challenging for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would like to see more examples of all its features Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Formidable has the most features, is easy to use and easy to extend. I have added functions to functions.php file from the Formidable documentation and they just work. Very professional. And they keep adding features to make it better. I trust this developer and there are many Wordpress plugin developers that I do not trust. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Nothing really. When I have needed to do something beyond the typical, the support has been great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
As a developer, I like the extensibility of Formidable Forms and the different add-ons that are available. Anything you can think of that needs an integrated form can almost certainly be implemented with Formidable forms. Together with the Code Snippets plugin, this is one of my core plugins that I use on all my Wordpress projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Nothing honestly ... or maybe that you need to install an extra plugin for the pro version? (would be nice to just have to install the public version and upgrade that with a license key instead of having to download the pro version as a separate plugin) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
