WHAT IS GRAVITY FORMS AND WHAT DOES IT DO?
Gravity Forms is a powerful contact form plugin for WordPress, but in a more general sense, it allows site owners to create robust and customizable forms to collect information. You can build and publish your Gravity Forms in just a matter of minutes.
It lets you create almost any type of form, including user surveys, polls, file upload forms, support requests, online orders, quizzes, and questionnaires. All you have to do is select your fields, configure your options, and easily embed forms on your WordPress-powered site using the plugin’s built-in tools.
Gravity Forms allows you to quickly and easily integrate with a variety of third-party services and provides for even deeper integration with WordPress through our collection of optional Add-Ons.
Gravity Forms can be used as a standalone eCommerce solution for stores that only sell a limited number of products, and can even be used for donations (or other user-defined pricing).
However, if you need advanced order management or inventory tracking, you are probably better off using a full eCommerce shopping cart solution like WooCommerce.
Another good news is that ‘Gravity Forms’ can be integrated with Easy Digital Downloads so you can sell digital and downloadable products by using Gravity Forms.
CAN GRAVITY FORMS BE INTEGRATED WITH OTHER PRODUCTS OR SERVICES?
YES! Gravity Forms has a variety of integrations available in the market, especially with payment gateways like PayPal, Stripe, Square, Authorize.net, and third-party services such as MailChimp, Zapier, Slack, Campaign Monitor, Help Scout, etc.
