Number of Seats/Users: doForms offers discounts based on the number of users or seats. A higher volume typically leads to a better discount structure, especially for enterprise-level usage.

Commitment to a Long-Term Contract: Discounts are often provided to companies that commit to using the service for a longer period (e.g., 1-year or 3-year contracts). A longer commitment shows doForms that the company is serious and willing to invest in the platform long-term.

No Active Discounts: Companies that are not already receiving other active discounts may have a better chance of qualifying for additional discounts from doForms. doForms reserves discounts for new customers or those not currently under promotional pricing.

Volume or Usage Commitment: doForms offers discounts if you agree to a minimum amount of usage or transaction volume. This could be based on data storage, transactions, or other metrics tied to how much you will use the platform.

Enterprise-Level Negotiation: Companies that qualify as “enterprise” due to their size or complexity (e.g., having large teams, multiple departments, or geographical presence) may be eligible for additional discounts from doForms. Such companies are often in a position to negotiate for better pricing.

Early Renewal or Prepayment: doForms often offers discounts if you renew early or prepay for the entire contract period. This is a common approach to securing a lower price.

Challenges and pain points our clients report:

• Changing a published form often requires renaming or creating a new version.

• This complicates ongoing processes and creates extra admin work.

• Usability on devices

• Some forms don’t always fit or scale well on certain devices.

• Can be a bit tricky to use at times, especially for less tech-savvy staff.

• Pricing and licensing

• Paying per user can become expensive as teams grow.

• Annual subscription is seen as slightly high for some budgets.

• Support and maintenance

• Data entry support and general support responses can feel slower than desired.
• Keeping all tablets updated and running smoothly, especially with PINs and security, adds overhead.

Overall sentiment from Spendbase clients:

• Ratings cluster around 4–5 out of 5, indicating strong satisfaction.
• doForms is viewed as a powerful, flexible tool for mobile data collection and workflow automation.
• The main trade-offs are around cost, form version management, and the need for smoother UX and device optimization.
