Where do I Start? Choosing a Doc vs. a Webform

The SeamlessGov has two main end-user facing products: Webforms and Docs. When creating a new form, the first thing a form builder needs to decide is, which product should I use? The following checklist is a list of questions to ask yourself before you begin building:

If the following are true, you must use a Doc:

  • You already have a PDF and you would like to make this fillable. You prefer to keep the formatting of this PDF and make it fillable
  • Your form is a state or federal mandate and formatting must be preserved
  • The form will have multiple signatures
  • The form needs to have input from multiple people
  • You have complex calculations
  • You have payment that will be variable or some users will need to be able to submit the form without paying (payment will be optional)
  • Quick to upload and implement

If the following are true, you should use a Webform:

  • The priority is a modern and sleek user interface
  • You want to have conditional questions display based on the answer to other questions
  • ADA WCAG 2.0 Compliant
  • Specialty features such as: translate, reCAptcha, images/videos, survey tools, embedded maps, and more!
  • Acuity Scheduling plugin
  • Mobile and Tablet Friendly
  • You would like to embed your form on a webpage
