## Reviews

### "Bad Support" — 2.0/5

> **Brian** | *15 August 2024* | Medical Practice | Recommendation rating: 2.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I have been using Form Docs for many years. I had 3 versions and was able to install them on my staff's computers. Its a great software and would be willing to increase this review if support would resolve my matter below.
> 
> **Cons**: The support is not good. I had to buy an upgrade because my older versions did not work anymore. I have two versions working well and when I bought a 3rd single filler it stated I was using it on two computers. Well 2 months later I still can not use the filler.
> 
> It was better years ago, support is an issue.

### "FormDocs is great for small businesses or businesses that are not routing the forms." — 4.0/5

> **James** | *13 May 2022* | Aviation & Aerospace | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It allows you to import PDF's and word documents to be converted.  &#10;It allows you to change the form however you like and has multiple options to make the form look the way you want.&#10;It allows you to utilize any ODBC driver to create dynamic forms that can directly update the databases used.&#10;It allows for advanced programming and manual integration of other programs as needed.
> 
> **Cons**: The support is email only there is no other method.  average wait times has been by experience (even in emergencies) on average 4 hours to initiate (they have 8am-5pm EST(EDT) support) and 30 minutes every email afterward.  The usual first email is questions regarding the question you just sent followed by something along the lines of we will look into it and are you on the most recent version?  Unfortunately I have solved most inquiry's with the team a work with within a week of putting them in myself due to long lead times to actually get the problem resolved.&#10;&#10;support of their FAB programming language there is no easily obtainable documentation in order to by yourself learn everything you may need to do things in FAB.  you have to request this through support.  I believe if this as more obtainable they would have a larger community online dealing with issues pertaining to this:).
> 
> It is a great product and does a lot of things no other program does by itself.  it really does not need any integration apps outside of email.  It has a lot of flaws in the support that are hard to overlook.  One thing

### "Excellent Forms Software as well as Customer Support" — 5.0/5

> **Michael** | *22 October 2019* | Consumer Goods | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Ability to design custom forms relatively easily.  But most importantly, the data gets embedded inside the actual form.  Several years ago, our server got hacked and all files were locked out with the exception of the FormDocs files.  This is a very important, probably unknown, security feature\!  We started with FormFlow designed forms but after that product left the market, we moved on to FormDocs.  Very happy we did.  On-line documentation was very helpful in getting started.
> 
> **Cons**: Several small glitches.  For example, an option is to send documents via PDF. There is an option box to "Remember settings"  but clicking it does not remember settings for future pdf sent documents.  Another issue is "Forms Automation Basic" \[FAB} scripting that is available in the Forms Design module.  This optional feature does not have the kind of documentation available for someone who wants to learn about form automation but is not knowledgable about the FAB scripting language.   The preferred method for customer support is via e-mail (but they respond quickly).  &#10;"
> 
> We evaluated several form software packages and FormDocs was the only one that allowed for serial number generation, which was very important to us.

### "Needs a public source for FAB script samples." — 5.0/5

> **Ron** | *14 October 2019* | Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: A good replacement for FormFlow\*. Other than a different programming script it was an easy transfer.  However, we found it easier create each template from scratch. Copy and Paste data fields makes it go faster.
> 
> **Cons**: Poor customer support.  Source for FAB script examples hard to find. A blog called Tek tips used to publish FAB script examples but was recently taken down.  Good thing we keep a binder of sample FAB. It's almost like these blogs are taken down on purpose. Not sure why.  It would be helpful to new customers if Formdocs\* included more samples of FAB script.
> 
> If I had not used FormFlow\* for over 10 years and was skilled in Visual Basics I would have had a much harder time coming up to speed with this program and FAB script. That said FAB script is very different than Visual Basics.

### "FormDocs User" — 5.0/5

> **Charles** | *19 July 2022* | Construction Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: What it allows us as a service company to accomplish.
> 
> **Cons**: Not much not to like but does require some patience when designing and test running until you get all the features where you want but the versatility may explain the need for extra patience. Worth the effort.
> 
> Have been using FormDocs for many years and is a very important part of our field service comapny for generating and completing work orders to final invoices and more and all to your exact liking. The automation is amazing
