Hello HN, I'm part of the team that's prepping this new online form builder. It's been developing for almost a year now and we know that the features we wanted to be ready, are ready. I'm hoping to get a user's insight on their experience using the builder, like: were you able to use all features, what features you want next, what do you most need an online form for, that kind of thing. We added a survey on the app, but got zilch feedback through it. Beta users sign-up is free and get 2 months free after the launch. We want to launch soon so I really appreciate any feedback. Thanks in advance! :)

Unrelated: why do you pay for intercom chat when there are a bazillion free chat bots out there?

  Mostly because we can offer that step-by-step set-up guide, create an automatic onboarding e-mail campaign (which we still need to do, yikes), automatic feedback survey and it's linked to our Help forum: https://help.mightyforms.com/en/ https://help.mightyforms.com/en/

I gave this a quick spin since I love survey forms :-) Overall, the UI is good and easy to use. There are some bugs like: * I cannot edit the input field title * Drag and drop breaks too easily * The submit button looks "disabled". https://form.mightyforms.com/preview/f3874162-4890-452f-8ef1-00ab2dad6096 https://form.mightyforms.com/preview/f3874162-4890-452f-8ef1... * I couldn't figure how to get a public link to the form. Or is only sharing possible? See https://imgur.com/gnEr6e8 https://imgur.com/gnEr6e8 for UI issues Overall, I think once you have the bugs ironed out, it's ready to launch as a MVP. Good stuff!

  Thanks so much for checking it out! * Input title: noted. Usually you can edit on the field or editing the Label field of its basic settings, but it is bugged. * Drag & Drop: noted * Submit button: Noted, though it's grey by default. You can customize it on the design section: http://prntscr.com/ogysby http://prntscr.com/ogysby * After Publishing you can click the share icon and you get the options to share on different social medias and open link button: http://prntscr.com/ogyt8c http://prntscr.com/ogyt8c You also have the embed code option. This is how the form would look like in a shareable link:https://form.mightyforms.com/share/2395627b-b615-4084-9f56-88018e613d87 https://form.mightyforms.com/share/2395627b-b615-4084-9f56-8... Thanks again! I hope to hear more from you for our testimonials :)
