Volume matters. 10,000 responses a month is $129 a month on Jotform Gold and $15 here, both billed monthly ($99 and $12 billed yearly).
You want your answers to stay. Jotform's free plan stores 500 submissions in total, not per month.
You want the survey to look like yours: templates, themes, your logo and your colour, all on Pro at $15.

Common questions.

Is Jotform better for non-survey forms?

Usually, yes. Registrations, payments, signatures, file-heavy intake forms and anything needing HIPAA are what Jotform is built for, and it does them well. Plumeform is built for questions you are going to analyse afterwards.

Can I move my Jotform questions across?

Yes. Paste them into Plumeform's import (a Pro feature) and it reproduces them as a draft, types and options included, ready to edit.

Does Plumeform store responses forever?

Your responses stay in your workspace for as long as the workspace exists; there is no total cap that starts deleting the oldest. The monthly allowance governs how many new ones arrive, not how many you keep.
