#4 of 7 in Form Plugins by Overall Score
What Is Ninja Forms?
Ninja Forms starts with a drag-and-drop WordPress form builder and lets users add capabilities individually through official add-ons. Those add-ons cover Conditional Logic, Multi Step Forms, file uploads to cloud storage, PDF submissions, save-and-continue, front-end posting, user analytics, payment fields, CRM connections, and real-time webhooks.
Ninja Forms offers a free core form editor, with conditional logic supplied as a separate paid extension or within its memberships. Conditional rules can modify field values, options and whether actions execute, beyond whether fields are visible. The Emails and Actions tab provides multiple notification actions, which allows an administrator to send a billing inquiry differently from a technical support request.
