The portal functions like a data repository, storing any and all reports which have been uploaded to the system. From here, they can then be reviewed and queried from an easy to use interface. The GForms® Portal contains a number of useful tools to graphically display your reports by various factors, including: company, date, discharge group, discharge, valve section, inspector, and approver.

GForms 5 holds the better App Store score, 3.7 against 2.8.

Written reviews complicate that: 0% of GForms 5's written reviews are positive against 6% of Idira Mobile's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
GForms 5 ships an update every 4 weeks, Idira Mobile every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and October 11, 2026 respectively.
