Hello,
Our client has requirement for form customization and they want to know how Plumsail Forms are batter than Power Apps and any other 3rd Party products like Nintex Forms. I found your Post on comparison with Power Apps Here.
Can you please provide comparison with Nintex Forms if possible?
Thanks.
Dear @harshp924,
In order to compare the two, I think one needs to use both products and make a decision for themselves, which one they like best and which one suits their needs more.
Looking at it now, Nintex forms also looks like a good solution, at least more versatile than the PowerApps approach, and they have some sort of rules builder which allows to avoid using JavaScript as extensively as you might need with our product at times. How good is it - I can't say, have not used it enough.
I think it can be both good and bad. For people who are unfamiliar with JS, it might be easier to start, and some simple cases are probably done faster than with JS. We're also thinking of adding some non-JS options to our forms for simple rules, like cascading lookups, in the future.
I also know that our JavaScript API is extremely flexible and is constantly improving. It wasn't this good when the product launched, and it just keeps getting better. If you have some experience with JavaScript or if you have a developer who can work with it, or even if you are willing to learn it, you can achieve almost everything with our forms, and if you can't do something - let us know, we'll be sure to add it in future versions.
Other core features seem to be similar - modern UI, responsive, easy to customize, etc. Maybe something is missing in one of the products, something else might be available instead, there could be different approaches, etc.
What I think is one of the biggest differences for me is pricing:
Plumsail Forms offers transparent pricing scheme for Office365 - clear price for either monthly or annual subscription to the specific product for one domain, any number of users/developers/forms/etc.
As for Nintex forms, I don't think you can even get the product separately, it seems to be integrated into the eco-system of Nintex products, you have to get the whole package, and if you don't need anything else, you still have to pay for it. Plus there are payment plans such as Standard and Enterprise, and they are somehow tied to workflows or processes - I'm not an expert on them, so I'm not going to say just how much it would cost, but it seems much less clear when it comes to pricing.
