Mobile Form Creator JotForm Enables Information Sharing and Workflow Completion from Anywhere

The world works from just about anywhere. Gone are the days of needing a desktop computer to get things done. Now, we are doing just about everything from our mobile devices. That includes a variety of business intelligence and management tasks.

JotForm is your go-to app for creating forms, collecting data, and analyzing it to make improvements or just get things done. The app comes complete with over 5,000 free templates for creating all sorts of forms. They could be for surveys, applications, requests and more. The form could even be a collaboration of information from several members of a team. How you use the forms is up to you.

Once you have a form created, you can share it with other users. This brings your business process into the digital age, eliminating the need for paper and allowing for participation that is quick and easy. JotForm mobile forms work offline as well, so you stay productive no matter where you are.

Data collection can be completed while offline, too. You can do all you need to from your mobile device. Once you are back at your desktop and connected, all of the data that is on the device will automatically synchronize with your main account.

The app makes full use of technology to make form completing easy. Advanced form fields can be automatically populated using GPS location, QR code scanning, barcode scanning, and voice. The app also supports the ability to capture signatures, upload files and photos.

The applications are endless. Imagine being a real estate agent. You could get so many documents signed on the go instead of waiting until you are in the office. Schools could use this to allow parents to receive and complete forms on a yearly basis. The convenience factor is increased, allowing for more timely responses from parents on documents that schools require.

For those of you looking to use the app for surveys, you can turn your device into a kiosk, making it the device that people step up to and complete a quick survey. The app allows you to lock down your device so the only app that people will have access to is the survey.

If you are using the form as part of a workflow process, the workflow itself can be designed and defined in the app. You can issue and get reminder emails and confirmations that forms were completed and by whom.

The applicability of this app is almost endless. Another bonus is that form creation is easy and straightforward. There is no need to be technically savvy to build a form.

Once data is collected, data analysis is performed and shared so you can get a big picture of what you have collected.

All areas and functions of the app is easy to get to and use – a big plus in the form generation app market. I would like to see the ability to post forms on other forums if possible, to see if I can get data from user outside of the app itself. On its own, JotForm offers a great deal of functionality for an app that costs you nothing. It certainly is worth a try if you are looking for a form creation app that works on the go.
