| Pros | Completely free, with no upsells in the code; Several spam options: Akismet, reCAPTCHA, Turnstile, quiz, disallowed list; Stripe payment field and Brevo contact sync built in | Single and multiple choice polls with optional voter-added answers; Scheduled start and end dates for time-limited polls; Bans by cookie, IP or username and captcha support on votes |
| Cons | No visual drag-and-drop builder; forms are markup; No conditional logic or multi-step forms without add-ons; Does not store submissions without Flamingo | Several features, including templates and multi-question polls, need the paid Pro version; Recent major rewrite; upgrade from older versions needs testing; Some captcha and email integrations depend on your own API keys |
