CaptainForm: Simplified Forms for WordPress

WordPress is quite popular when it comes to building websites, and as such, it is backed by a large number of plugins. You can easily create galleries, combat spam and also build contact forms using WordPress plugins, without having to touch even a single line of code. Speaking of contact forms, the plugins to build forms are plenty, and you can opt for both free and premium choices. In this post, we will be introducing you to one such contact form plugin for WordPress users: CaptainForm.
CaptainForm is a no-nonsense and straightforward WordPress form builder. It does what it is supposed to do: create contact forms and help you gather and manage user feedback. You can create any type of form or survey with the help of this plugin, and add it to your WordPress site.
For creating a new form, you just need to specify the type of form that you are building. It can be a poll, quiz, contact form, order or registration form, and so on.
With each form that you select, you are presented with a given set of options and features, as well as templates that you can edit and tweak to suit your needs. If you are the adventurous types, you can also go with the blank form option, that lets you build your form from scratch in the manner that suits you.
Naturally, as you can see, CaptainForm offers ample scope for optimization and customization, and it can be used to create not just contact forms but even polls and surveys.
Also, this plugin integrates well with third-party applications, such as Google Drive, MailChimp, PayPal, Stripe, and Dropbox, among many others. You can use these services and apps to further boost and improve your forms, and add extra functionality such as support for payments via PayPal, or sharing of files via Drive or Dropbox, and so on.
All of the mentioned paid plans allow you to add unlimited forms with unlimited fields. Need something cheaper? How about grabbing the plugin for free? CaptainForm has a free plan as well: you can use the plugin on one site, add three forms with 15 fields. The free plan gets you 100 MB of storage with 500 secured form submissions per month.
