This is my new must-have, especially for membership sites. Substantially automates both form creation and data management. Use it for any interactive need you can imagine. We hooked it up to Hikashop to build a sophisticated event registration system. Can be buggy on initial install, but support is off-the-charts responsive. Much prefer this to Chronoforms because it's much easier for our client/end users to manage. Also easily styled to complement your overall site design. Already good, will get even better.
Although Form Maker doesn't extend to some other well known forms it is a good form extension.
It takes some time to get behind but afterwards it is pretty facile to handle.
I created a simple multi-page form in one hour.
Thank you webdorado

I very rarely write reviews but this one definitely deserves one. This is really amazingly easy. These guys nailed it.
Usually it takes me little longer to figure things out but FormMaker is so easy and intuitive that I didn't even read any tutorials and created my first form in 8-10 minutes. It's worth the money, $30! Well spent!

This is, truely, the easiest to use forms extension. I have bought it reasently. I hope they will develop Form Maker further and will keep up with this quality. Most of all I like the submissions management part.
Liked this form builder. Very easy and intuitive interface. Especially submission block is very effective for managing my clients’ requests. Also I can export all data to excel, and import to my soft. I am hoping to see more in next versions.
I am using this Form Maker since March of this year. I want to share some experience of using the extension.
1. Developer updated the extension permanently. New features are added to the functionality, which improves the overall effectiveness.
2. New designs that are available in the last version are really amazing. Since now I do not need to change any HTML or CSS.
3. Full integration with Google map is realized, which is definitely great.
4. The backend of the Form Maker is intuitively simple and user friendly
5. Support is also great.
Summarizing, I can recommend to everyone who needs a great form creator with periodic updates and support.

I got in contact with this form extension on a client's site. I would never recommend it but he said he has paid for it. After one day of frustration he had to admit that we need another extension.
This frustration has burned so into me that I come back to write about a second time.
This extension is / was:
- not mature
- very difficult adaptable in the view
- much harder and difficult in adapting functionality
- not intuitive ( not one of my main reasons )
If you enjoy throwing mouse pads and crashing keyboards out of frustration this is the right choice.
