Question

I am looking for a form builder solution that will allow rapid form development even by beginners, without needing much knowledge of programming. I prefer a solution that we can install on our servers.

I have 3 products shortlisted for further review: MachForm, RackForms(formerly FormBoss) and Form Tools

If anyone has used any of these products, I would appreciate your input on your experience with using these products and your recommendations.

Does anyone know of other products that I must be sure to include in my review?

We will eventually move over hundreds of forms to the chosen solution and I would like to make sure as much as I can that it will still be a viable solution in the coming years.

Explanation / Answer

If you are looking for a solution that has no learning curve and can be installed on your server, then MachForms is a good choice. RackForms has a LOT more functionality, but the learning curve is very, very steep. The additional functionality also isn't likely to be necessary in most situations.
