Build your own mobile forms with no-code form builders

As businesses adapt to a new reliance on remote work, digital tools have reached an unprecedented level of importance. Information sharing and communication are almost entirely supported by these digital platforms, making it essential for teams to be able to manage and optimize their solutions as needed. To make this possible, businesses of every sector are turning to the talent within their teams to help design, implement, and augment their critical platforms and applications. These employees are often on the very frontlines of work, with exposure to the needs, priorities, and obstacles that IT teams may be unfamiliar with, granting them unique insight into what their digital tools must offer. 

These professionals are commonly referred to as ‘Citizen Developers’ – individuals tasked with developing or tailoring platforms to the needs of teams in the trenches, who may not have a traditional development background or any experience with code or IT at all. Citizen Developers do not work in a silo, often operating in conjunction with established IT teams or proximity to operations leadership. This partnership provides an impactful marriage of operational intel and tech expertise, resulting in a tool that benefits an operation end-to-end.

How your form builder impacts Citizen Developers

Your form builder of choice directly impacts the success of your operation’s Citizen Developers. Many form builders either require direct IT support (e.g. relying on coding) or are simply inflexible, limiting what optimizations can be applied to a digital document. Digital form platforms that provide intuitive, easy-to-use form builders, like GoFormz, empower Citizen Developers to design the digital forms their operations need, without the complications of code or rigorous IT support. For example, the GoFormz Template Editor (form builder) provides a drag-and-drop experience, allowing Citizen Developers to easily drag fields (like Text fields, Image field, and digital Signatures) onto the PDF or JPG of their form. The properties of these form fields can be easily modified within the same form builder, allowing users to make fields Required, instantly populate fields with information, dynamically change their color, and so much more!

Intuitive, easy-to-use form builders present Citizen Developers with opportunities rather than limitations. Citizen Developers are often also an end-user, allowing them to directly experience the strengths and weaknesses of the digital tool they helped to create. This direct experience paired with an easy to use interface allows teams to improve their agility and rapidly implement optimizations as needed. This improved agility allows the professionals that deeply understand the needs of the end-user to optimize their digital documents efficiently, eliminating unnecessary delays.
