Jotform is a San Francisco–based company for building online forms.[6] Founded in 2006 by Aytekin Tank, Jotform also offers a mobile app builder,[7] a PDF editor, and electronic signature collection services.[8] As of September 2023, it has more than 20 million users.[9]

History

[edit]

Jotform was founded in 2006 by Aytekin Tank.[10][11][12]

In 2011, it released Wishbox, a feedback tool that annotates screenshots.[13][14]

By 2012, Jotform had over 700,000 users and published over two million user forms.[15]

In February 2012, the United States Secret Service shut down the Jotform site as part of a concealed investigation of user-created forms. After two days, it was back online.[6][16][17]

Jotform released an Adobe Document Cloud eSign Widget in June 2015 for embedded e-signing into forms.[18][19]

In April 2016, Jotform announced that its software was available on Weebly.[20] In December 2016, the company partnered with IFTTT to integrate an "Applet" to create forms in other applications.[21][22] Tech Times recognized Jotform's integration on Slack as one of the "Best Productivity Apps" of 2016.[23]

In 2018, Jotform acquired Noupe,[24] an online magazine.

In October 2021, on the occasion of the 15th anniversary of its founding, Jotform has undergone a major rebranding. That rebranding included the changes in its logo, color palette, along with the change in the brand name from JotForm to Jotform.[25]

In 2022, Jotform is the No. 1 online form builder in G2's Summer Report.[26][27]

Software

[edit]

Jotform offers its customers a drag-and-drop form builder in which the users are able to customize anything related to the form. Conditional logic can also be set.[28] The product also integrates with many other major software tools.[29]

In addition to being a form builder, Jotform has produced other products, such as Jotform Apps in 2021,[3] a no-code app builder, and Jotform Sign in 2022,[4] an electronic signature collection tool. In September 2023, Jotform became available on the Salesforce AppExchange platform.[30] In October 2024, Jotform launched its workflow builder product Jotform Workflows.[31]

Locations

[edit]

In addition to the headquarters of the company in San Francisco, there are seven Jotform offices throughout the world: Four are located in Turkey (two in Ankara and one each in Izmir and Istanbul), along with offices in London, Vancouver and Sydney.[32]
