Tally review

Tally is the strongest free option on this list. The free plan has no submission cap within its fair use guidelines and still includes payments through Stripe, e-signatures, file uploads, conditional logic, calculations, hidden fields, answer piping, duplicate prevention and password protection. Forms are written like a document, which makes simple signup and feedback forms fast to build. Integrations cover Google Sheets, Notion, Airtable, Zapier, Make and webhooks. Pro removes Tally branding and adds custom domains, unlimited team members in shared workspaces, partial submissions, drop-off analytics and custom CSS, while Business adds data retention controls and email verification. Tally is based in Belgium and stores form data in Europe, which helps EU teams with GDPR. Weaknesses are a smaller set of approval and document features than Jotform or Cognito Forms, and the pricing page showed only euro prices from our location, so we could not confirm a USD price.
