What Type of Form Do You Need?

There are several applications you can leverage for creating forms to integrate with your website. However, there are a few questions to consider when preparing to create a form:

• Does the form need to be secured for an internal audience, accessible to only individuals with Villanova credentials?
• Does the form need a workflow, where the submission gets routed to someone to approve?
• Does the form need to collect data?
  • Is the data being collected student or alumni data?
• Does the form need to allow for the uploading of attachments?

Microsoft Forms - Forms for an internal audience with Villanova credentials.

AEM Forms - Forms that can be used for both internal or external audiences.

TouchNet Forms - Forms that seek to process payments.
