Google forms
As the completely free option, you’d expect that Google forms would come in with basic functionality.
Although requiring internet connection to function unlike most of the paid platforms, it does still provide a lot of functionality.
One con of using Google forms however, is that it doesn’t have an instant refresh after submitting data, which then means that the user has to make sure that the screen is refreshed before the next person enters data.
If you’re starting out however and can’t justify the cost of a paid platform, it’s great to use as a proof of principle for the need of a dedicated lead capture form.
