Brought to you by QuillForms and Mohamed Magdy, the Quill Forms WordPress plugin allows you to create contact forms and surveys that act as lead generation machines and bridge the gap between your audience and products. In other words, the plugin helps you to create forms that seem like a casual conversation instead of a 20-question boring form that people don’t want to fill out.

As a WordPress user myself, I have tried several contact form plugins in the past, but the Quill Forms WordPress plugin stands out from the crowd. And I’m not alone:

This plugin is fantastic, and the UI is very neat. It worked out of the box; I was able to create an elegant and interactive form in a matter of minutes. Quill Forms is definitely the best free alternative to Typeform out there. Great job, guys! – Mahmoud Saeed, CEO at Infinue

On top of that, the plugin is extremely easy to use, which is exactly what you need. Here’s a highlight of the features to expect.

Quill Forms Features Highlights

An attractive and conversion-focused design – Quill Forms offers you interactive forms that are easier to fill out. Instead of barraging your visitors with a long list of questions, you can lead them from one question to the next, which helps you to boost your conversion rates.
Multiple form blocks – Building conversational blocks with Quill Forms is incredibly easy. To create a new form, simply drag and drop blocks where you need them on the form. Available blocks include Welcome Screen, Thank You Screen, Short Text, Long Text, Email, Name, Number, Dropdown, Date, Website, Statement, and File (which helps your users to upload a file). The Opinion block, which is great for surveys, is only available in the pro version.
Customizable form themes – You can start with a theme, create a new theme or customize an existing theme to match your brand. You can change colors, fonts, and backgrounds for free. Plus, it’s all easy – simply point and click and your work is done.
Email notifications – The Quill Forms WordPress form plugin allows you to send notifications to any email address you want. That means you will receive notifications to any email address you want whenever a user submits a form.

And there’s more…

Jump logic (Pro version) – Thanks to conditional logic, Quill Forms allows you to send people to different paths depending on their answers. It is a great way to segment your audience and boost your conversion rates.
Answers piping feature – You can use a previous field answer in another field by using “@” in the question label editor or description editor.
Calculator (Pro version) – This feature allows you to create quizzes, cost estimation forms and use calculator variables with the answers piping feature.

And more…

Multiple integrations (Pro version) – In this day and age, it would be a shame to use a WordPress form plugin that doesn’t integrate with your favorite tools. Well, Quill Forms has none of that. The plugin integrates seamlessly with tools such as MailChimp, Constant Contact, GetResponse, HubSpot, Google Sheets, and Zapier.
Manage your form entries – Quill Forms comes with a reports dashboard that offers you access to all of your form submissions. Once any user submits your form, you can display and delete any of them. You can sort submission by date, alphabetically or numerically. Additionally, you can export form entries in CSV format in the pro version.
Intuitive admin dashboard – Quill Forms offers you an intuitive and neat dashboard that allows you to navigate and manage your forms quickly.
Amazing support – The team behind Quill Forms extends splendid support via their website, live chat, WordPress, Github, and social media channels.
