Jetpack

Jetpack is a popular plugin that’s widely used across millions of websites. While many have a love-hate relationship with it, its free WordPress contact form is a solid feature.

It’s most suitable for websites who are already using Jetpack. For non-Jetpack users, it’s not practical to install such a large plugin just to create a contact form. Especially when Contact Form 7 is so good.

The form builder is simple but effective and has some basic templates all ready to go. You can customize your forms however you like and embed them with the form block.

Highlights of Jetpack Forms:

• Form block is part of the larger Jetpack plugin

It’s a very flexible plugin with an intuitive drag and drop builder that keeps things simple even though you can create complex forms. The builder has a live preview too, which is a minor but neat addition.

We think Paperform is ideal for businesses that want their forms to be different. It’s an excellent product, offering a lot of freedom. If it wasn’t so expensive, we would be a lot more excited about it.

We spent a long time testing each of the form plugins on this page and weren’t disappointed with any of them.

It was mainly the price that would decide whether we used them or not.

We doubt you would be sorry if you used any of them either, but if you’re looking for recommendations:

• If you’re a small website, store or business with basic needs: Contact Form 7 delivers a lot for free.
• If you use the Elementor page builder, Ultimate Addons for Elementor has a neat form block as part of the package.
• If you don’t want to mess around with code and for both simple and complex forms, try SureForms.

Our team uses the first two on personal projects and have very few complaints.

SureForms is brand new, but looks too good not to use!
