User reviews

Great mobile forms

Formation is a great way to capture forms and coupled with C365 helps us manage compliance and safety for our property portfolio

A great way to capture data and submit back to the office

Formation finally cracked the age old problem of going paperless to gather my data remotely and send it back to my team in the office. The software can take all kinds of data, including photos, video, audio descriptions and I'm now using the bar code scanner to catalogue my inventory. Won't go back to pen and paper again.
