What is NestForms?
NestForms is a web and app-based service that allows you to track, create and manage paperless forms, surveys and simple polls under your own dedicated account. You can use it to create anything along the lines of customer sales orders, surveys, inspections or questionnaires in a simple to use app on your mobile device.
What do I need to use NestForms?
You just need a web browser to create your forms, and to access your collected data, and you will need the app installed on the mobile device.
The app is available to download on Apple App Store & Google Play
Do I need any Technical or programming skills?
No, you have no need for any programming or coding experience.
Basic web knowledge should be all you need to create the forms, as you will be using our intuitive drag and drop form builder interface via the website interface.
For using the app, we believe basic knowledge of your mobile device should be all you need, as the app is very intuitive to use.
Is my data secure with NestForms?
As a client, we place high value in ensuring you have confidence in the security of your data. We make every effort to maintain your data in as safe as an environment as possible.

How do I change the administrator of our account
It’s not possible for two people to login to the same account.
You will need to decide who is going to manage the master account (you or your colleague).
Learn more on how to change the administrator of your account.
What does it cost?
We have payment models that will suit all requirements,
Please feel free to avail of our 14 day free trial and see what the full suite of service can offer you.
Our pricing tiers available here range from a freemium version to to more advanced Enterprise options.
There are no contractual requirements to use our service and you are free to operate on a month to month basis depending on your requirements.
Only the account manager (you) would need to have a paid account. All of your responders can use the free account.
Any remote user can download the app for free, and they can even have a free admin account where they can create their own forms if they wish (this comes with a limitation of saving 10 forms under their own account if using the free version).
This free account, creates no conflict with your account, and they will only ever see your forms when they are shared with them, and can only fill them in as directed (No editing or viewing rights outside the app). This effectively reduces their role within your account as a data collector on your behalf.
