01Sign SailThat's us
Free (2 forms, 25 subs/mo) · Pro $12/mo · Business $29/mo, billed annually
Best for: Forms that need a legally binding signature
If your forms end in an agreement, this is the focused pick: 14 field types, conditional logic, file uploads, a QR code per form, and every submission can carry an ESIGN/UETA/eIDAS-SES compliant signature with a SHA-256 audit trail in the PDF. One meter (1,000 submissions a month on Pro), no separate signing allowance. Skip it if you need payments or approval workflows inside the form.
02Typeform
From $29/mo (100 responses/mo)
Best for: Conversational surveys and brand-forward lead capture
The best-looking forms in the category, one question at a time, with completion rates to match on long surveys. Costs more per response than anyone here and has no native legal e-signature, so it pairs with a signing tool rather than replacing one.
03Tally
Free with unlimited forms and responses · Pro ~$29/mo
Best for: Generous free tier for simple forms
A Notion-style form builder whose free tier covers unlimited forms and responses, genuinely unusual. Clean editor, fast to learn. Fewer integrations and no legal e-signature or audit trail, so it suits internal tools and lightweight collection, not agreements.
04Google Forms
Free with a Google account
Best for: Free, zero-setup forms inside Google Workspace
The default for a reason: free, instant, and the results land in Sheets. Design options are minimal, there's no signature capability, no audit trail, and branding screams Google Forms. For quick internal questionnaires it's unbeatable; for anything client-facing or signed, look elsewhere on this list.
05Cognito Forms
Free tier · paid from ~$19/mo
Best for: Calculation-heavy forms with payments on a budget
Strong at the unglamorous parts: calculated fields, repeating sections, payment collection, and document merging at a lower price than Jotform's equivalent tiers. The interface is plainer and the template library is smaller, but the logic engine is the deepest of the budget options.
