Our Forms feature is a great tool for every team, providing tremendous value as they serve as a channel for your team to be heard, share information and report. Our forms are customizable, digital, easy to set up and can easily be tailored for specific use cases.

Our Forms allows your team to fill in forms, RSVP, make suggestions, provide feedback, ask questions and many more, directly from their mobile app!

It's time to say goodbye to those piles of papers sitting on your desk submitted by your employees!

In this article we will cover:

Why Forms are a powerful tool?

Our Forms feature has several core qualities that makes it a powerful tool for communication and engagement

  1. Forms make it easier for your team to submit information, whether it's a suggestion, a photo or an RSVP, Forms are always available for your team and are easy to fill with just a few clicks!

  2. Forms give you an overtime perspective: they're documented and can easily be searched or filtered for and even exported! Creating a solid organizational memory.

  3. Forms automate information flow and improve response time: they don't just gather information for you, they auto forward it to the relevant stakeholders so they can respond, making communication more direct and effective between your employees and management.

Examples of Forms for Communication and Engagement

Suggestion / Feedback Box

A virtual suggestion box makes it easy for your team to make suggestions, raise ideas and just share thoughts. You can let your team choose who to cc to their suggestions from a predefined list of options.

Direct Channel to HR or senior leadership

With Forms, you can let the team raise questions to HR, or even to key stakeholders like senior leadership. This is a very powerful tool that lets your HR and senior leadership hear directly from their teams, regardless of how complexed your organizational chart may be. This type of communication is also highly appreciated by employees, as they feel they are heard.

Getting the team involved

With Forms such as 'Caught you caring' or 'Employee nomination for award' team members can recognize and appreciate their peers - easily testifying to acts of kindness, and recommending their fellow colleagues for awards. And by doing so, making the team part of the appreciation process itself, empowering a sense of connection between team members.

Events / Volunteering registration

Forms can also be used to subscribe to events or to RSVP. Under the Form settings you can set a limitation for the number of available slots per event, and the number of available slots per individual. Making it easy to get people to RSVP and later to export the full list of all expected participates.

Reporting

When it comes to reporting, Forms are a powerful tool that makes it easy to harness the awareness of your full team. For example, by creating a 'safety hazard report' all your team members will have the option at any given moment to report on a potential hazard in their work environment, to include images, location information and more and to auto-send it to the relevant stakeholders for a follow up action.

Whether you wish to utilize a 'Personal information update Forms' a 'Uniform order form', a 'Holiday present preference' or any other form, Forms make it is easy to gather information from your team, to know who already completed the form and who didn't and to follow up on the gather information by managing statuses of entries or exporting the information.
