What Reddit says

Fluent Forms

Few Reddit threads discuss Fluent Forms directly, and the main comparison is with WPForms. One developer found its front end lighter, at around 45kb, but slower to lay out forms, while other posts ask how it fits no-code workflows such as Airtable and where its data is stored.

WPForms

Reddit users are mostly critical of WPForms, saying key features such as file uploads and access to form entries sit behind a paywall, and the free version lacks fields like phone and date of birth. A developer also accuses its maker, Awesome Motive, of putting a backdoor in WPForms Lite.
