| Free-plan feature | FormBuilder | Typeform |
|---|---|---|
| Forms | 5 active forms | Unlimited forms |
| Responses per month | 100; additional responses held until upgrade | 10 across all forms |
| Conditional logic | Field show/hide with all/any conditions | Branching, calculations, scores and variables |
| File uploads | 10 MB per file; 100 MB account storage | Paid plan required to publish upload questions |
| Remove product branding | Pro or above | Paid plan; Plus or above in the current core offering |
| Live payment collection | Stripe on Free; connect an eligible account with charges enabled | Payment questions require a paid plan |
For a contact form expecting 30 replies in a month, FormBuilder’s Free allowance covers the response count; Typeform’s documented Free allowance does not. For 12 separate surveys receiving only a few responses in total, Typeform’s unlimited-form allowance may matter more. Compare your actual workload rather than treating one free plan as best for everyone.

Making the call
Our take
Choose Typeform when the conversational format is the point — quizzes, NPS, brand-forward lead magnets — and you have the budget for response-based pricing. Choose FormBuilder when you need a fast, AI-assisted builder for everyday business forms, more responses for the money, and the safety of never losing a submission when you outgrow a plan.
Switching
In Typeform, open each form → Results → Responses → Download all responses (CSV/XLSX). Keep these as your archive.
Choose Import, select Typeform and paste a public form URL. Review the resulting draft. If extraction cannot read the form, use a PDF or paste the questions into the AI generator.
Reconnect Sheets, Slack, HubSpot or your CRM through Zapier (6,000+ apps) or webhooks. Field names map by label.
Preview the questions and logic, publish when ready, and test a response. Replace embeds and links you control with the new FormBuilder URL; old Typeform URLs are not automatically redirected.
