Can Jotform compete with Wufoo
That sounds like a mouthfull.So what it Jotform? JotForm is the first web based WYSIWYG form builder kinda like Wufoo. I like the interface and usability of Wufoo better but if Jotform can steer things in a different direction maybe they can compete.
What do I mean by that? Well, if your going to design something to be exactly the same as something else then you have to do it better, a lot better and Jotform comes up a bit short.
But wait! There is room. The thing as I see, as a developer for both desktop applications and web applications, is a need for the forms creator to spit out code. How about when I am done with the form I have a way to hook-it to a database (provide me with a table / field editor) or through a common email script (like MailEnable or Jmail). Also, let me download the code in different languages: ASP, ASP.NET, PHP would be a great start.
If Jotform can do this they will be where nobody has gone yet.
Good luck and lets see if Jotform or Wufoo can tap into this.

Not quite. Formlogix seems kinda of underhanded in the way the present their 'free of charge' statement. When you read the deatils its the beta that is free of charge.
I wouldn't recommend any product or service that plays tricks with the wording of its offering to get more users.
(Oh, and do you really think I don't know this comment was from a representitive of the company)
