UoM eForms
Read full descriptionHide full description
The University of Manchester (UoM) eForms app is specifically for UoM employees or students to complete and submit any forms that have been assigned to them. UoM eforms provides an easy to use way of completing forms on the iPad and sending them directly back to the school or academic who distributed the from. UoM eForms allows users to complete and save forms offline, and then submit the forms whenever they are connected to the internet. Both sent and draft forms are saved on the users’ ipads so they always have a copy, and some forms are returned to the user as a Word document. Requirements UoM eForms is free to download and use, but only staff or students of the University can view and use the forms, and only those that have been assigned to them by the system administrators.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: UoM eForms at none against Pastest's 56. Pastest's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 6 months). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
