[^1] [^1] The Plus plan costs 79 USD a month for 1,000 responses a month. [^1] [^1] The Talent plan costs 169 USD a month for 3,000 responses a month. [^1] [^1] Compare the number of responses your forms will collect each month with the cap on the plan you are weighing. ## Google Forms: a survey builder that gathers data and insights Files created in Forms or uploaded to Google Drive are encrypted in transit and at rest. [^5] The facts available for this page do not cover pricing or payment options for Google Forms, so check Google's own help pages for those before choosing. Compare how many responses your forms need to collect with whatever limits Google states, and check how the forms will be shared with people outside your organization. ## Tally: a free form builder you can start without signing up Tally says its forms and submissions are unlimited and free, as long as usage stays within its fair usage guidelines. [^2] The Pro plan costs 24 USD a month. [^2] Compare the stated fair-use terms with the amount of form activity expected. ## Jotform: a form builder with a free starting plan Jotform offers plans from Starter (free) through Bronze, Silver, and Gold, plus Enterprise with custom pricing. [^3] The Gold plan offers the highest limits outside Enterprise, with optional HIPAA compliance. [^3] Jotform says it accepts payments via credit or debit card and PayPal. [^3] Jotform charges its users in U.S. dollars or euros, depending on where they are located. [^3] ## Connections Forms: a form builder for small businesses and events Connections Forms is made by the team that publishes this site. It is a form builder: a form is built and published as a page people can open. [^4] A finished form opens at a web link you share with people. [^4] For a person who runs a business, a form answer can create a new contact or match it to an existing one, so a new sign-up lands in the contact list. [^4] Submissions can be tagged with a contact label for later sorting. [^4] Forms can capture partial responses, [^4] can carry an open date field, [^4] and can hide a question based on the answer to another question. [^4] A field in the form settings accepts a Slack webhook. [^4] A form can take payments through Stripe Checkout on the owner's connected Stripe account; Stripe is a separate company that handles card payments. [^4] Connections Forms offers a free account for small businesses and events, and its free plan has limits that stop a feature rather than billing you. [^4] [^4] ## How to pick the right Typeform alternative If your team already works in Google Workspace, check whether Google Forms covers the survey you need. If budget is the main concern, compare the plan terms of each tool before deciding. Jotform accepts payment by card or PayPal. [^3] Connections Forms can create or match a contact from each form answer, [^4] and can take payments through Stripe Checkout on the form owner's connected Stripe account, where Stripe is the separate company that handles card payments. [^4] Before choosing, match the plan to the traffic a form will actually receive, because every tool prices differently. Typeform's Basic plan includes 100 responses a month. [^1] Check how each tool acts when a form passes its cap. Connections Forms never bills when a limit is passed; the feature just stops. [^4] Ask what the other tools do at their cap, and check whether card payments add a fee from the payment service on top of the product's own plan price. Jotform charges its users in U.S. dollars or euros, depending on where they are located. [^3] ## Frequently asked questions ### Is Tally really free? Yes.
