Everything you need to know about Google Forms

Google Forms is a free, easy-to-use form builder tightly integrated with Google's ecosystem. All it takes is signing in with your Google Account (or creating one) to build surveys, quizzes, and questionnaires. You can use conditional logic, but that may require a learning curve.
Do Google Forms cost money?
Google Forms is free to use, but the form builder is a part of the Google Suite, so you need to create a Google account first. You can upgrade to a paid plan if you want access to online support or to increase your storage limit for file uploads.
Is there a better option than Google Forms?
Google Forms provides basic form-building capabilities and offers no upgrade options to unlock more advanced features. On the other hand, Tally provides greater integration and design capabilities and offers more robust form logic and branching structures — all for free.
Can you use Google Forms for large-scale projects?
Google Forms offers unlimited questions and responses to help distribute forms to large groups. You can easily track, download, and export form responses to Google Sheets for analysis. However, file uploads are limited on the free plan so you may need an upgraded Google account with more storage.
Can you embed content on Google Forms?
Google Forms only supports image and video embeds. To add a video, you can only upload it if it’s already available on YouTube.
Does Google Forms provide customer support?
Users on a free plan can access customer self-service and community forums for support. To receive online support, you need to upgrade to a paid plan.
Pros and cons of using Google Forms
Users familiar with Google's ecosystem will find Google Forms intuitive to use and integrate, like linking to Google Sheets. The free plan increases accessibility. But if you need more powerful features, you may find Google Forms’ options too limiting.
How is Google Forms rated?
Google Forms has received an average user rating of 8.7/10 on SoftwareReviews. Most users appreciate its simplicity of use and affordability. However, many note the lack of design customization limits form branding options.
Google Forms offers free standard forms, but Tally takes customization to the next level.
