| Pros | Simple shortcode embed using the numeric form ID; Form picker button in the classic editor inserts a chosen form; Forms are edited in Jotform's own builder, not in WordPress | Many modules in one plugin, each switched on separately; Brute-force protection and an image CDN without extra services; Contact form with Akismet spam checks and entries kept in admin |
| Cons | Form content and submissions live on Jotform, not in WordPress; Front end depends on Jotform scripts and a Jotform account; Admin notice promotes a separate Jotform AI Chatbot plugin | Needs a WordPress.com connection to work fully; Usage tracking runs once the site is connected, with no separate toggle found; Paid plans gate some features, such as multi-step forms |
