Two popular form builders compared on the same 25-row feature matrix and pricing, with FormBuilder shown as a third column so you can see another option to consider.
Overview
Jotform is one of the oldest and most fully featured form builders on the market. The drag-and-drop editor supports classic single-page forms and a "card" one-question-at-a-time layout, and it ships with an enormous library — around 10,000 templates, hundreds of widgets, and 100+ payment and app integrations. If you have a niche form need, there is a good chance Jotform already has a template or widget for it.
Over the years the product has grown into a small platform: Jotform Tables (a spreadsheet/database view of submissions), PDF Editor and Report Builder, Jotform Sign for e-signatures, Approvals for workflow routing, an App builder, and more recently AI Agents that can fill or answer questions about a form conversationally. All of it is bundled into the same plan tiers.
MightyForms is a drag-and-drop online form builder aimed at small businesses that needed lead-capture, intake, order and registration forms without writing code. Its signature idea was that a form should never lose a lead: every keystroke was saved as a partial submission, abandoned forms could be recovered with automated follow-up emails, and respondents could resume where they left off. Stripe and PayPal payments, autoresponders, email/SMS notifications, PDF export and Zapier connectivity rounded out the product.
In May 2026 FormBuilder acquired MightyForms. The MightyForms app remains available at its existing login for current customers, and nothing about existing accounts, forms, submissions or billing has been moved automatically. FormBuilder.com is now the home for the MightyForms public templates and educational resources, and it is where we recommend building new forms.

Jotform is the veteran all-in-one form builder with the largest template and widget catalogue, plus PDFs, e-signatures, tables, approvals and an app builder bolted on. MightyForms is the drag-and-drop form builder known for abandoned-form recovery and partial submissions — now part of FormBuilder. Jotform is best for teams that want forms, PDFs, e-signatures, approvals and a data table in one subscription; MightyForms is best for existing MightyForms customers who want to keep using the app they know.
FormBuilder is worth a look if you want an AI generator that drafts forms from a sentence, 100 free responses a month with overflow held rather than lost, Stripe payments with no platform fee, and a flat $39 / month Pro plan for 10,000 responses.
