Cognito Forms

What features are included?

Users can benefit from a number of exciting features. Here are just several of those features explained.

Conditional logic

A primary feature of this form builder is conditional logic. This allows you to control which fields your users see based on the entries they make, allowing for highly personalised forms. Cognito Forms makes this all easy to use through its drag-and-drop interface.

Calculations

Using this form builder, users are able to carry out simple calculations that could be beneficial when designing an order form. Such calculations could include working out coupon discounts or altering pricing of hotel booking reservations based on the dates and number of days selected.

Entry sharing

Entry sharing allows users the ability to easily view and edit forms even after they have been submitted. This could allow you to keep customer or employee records updated more easily. Entries may also be shared with other employees who have access to the Cognito Forms login.

Payment processing

You can also accept payments from customers via credit card using Cognito Forms. The form builder can be integrated with various payment processing platforms including PayPal, Stripe and Square. Payments can be made in a variety of world currencies and there is even the option of accepting coupons and making refunds.

Data encryption

Online forms can often contain a lot of sensitive data that needs to be secured. This form builder uses encryption to prevent such data falling into the wrong hands. The platforms also uses a number of other security features such as masking passwords as they’re being entered and protecting fields from being viewed in confirmation emails.

File uploads

Using this form builder, you can also create forms that allow users to upload files. This could allow CVs to be uploaded onto job application forms or it could allow musicians to submit their music to a local radio.

Multi-page forms

This form builder can also allow you to create long multiple-page forms. Page breaks can be added to help separate data, whilst progress bars can also be used to let users know how close they are to completing a form. Conditional branching also allows certain pages to only display if certain entries are made.

Electronic signatures

You can also incorporate electronic signatures into your forms using this form builder. This allows you to securely sign contracts without having to print them off. With many companies going paperless to save money and save the planet, electronic signatures can be a handy feature.
