How Mobile Online Form Sharing Can Streamline Applications

Seamlessly collect better data by taking your applications digital with an online form builder

Share digital applications that are simple for your recipients to fill out and return back to you in real-time. Form submissions via paper applications can be a tedious task to process for team members. Now, with drag and drop features, you can build mobile forms that look exactly like your paper form. With online form signature capabilities, you can obtain signatures from your recipient for important documents, anytime and anywhere.

Everything is more efficient. Before, the application process would take two weeks, sometimes three weeks. It now takes less than two days.

Learn below about why companies are switching to mobile online form sharing for the application process:

No missing data

With paper forms, you have very little control over how the form is filled out by the recipient. This can lead to administrative burdens like incomplete documents and missing data. Leveraging our digital form sharing feature, Public Forms, you can easily route forms equipped with Required Fields, which make important fields mandatory for the recipient to complete. This makes the process of utilizing mobile forms to collect data extremely simple and efficient for not only your recipients but your staff as well.

Submit from anywhere

As the world continues to become more digital and move away from paper documents, it is important that you are able to obtain applications from anywhere. Providing your recipients with a way to submit documents from their mobile devices will ensure that you are receiving documents in a timely manner. Rather than hand-delivering a paper application, and then needing to wait for the applicant’s information, signature, and delivery of the form, your digital application form can be easily shared as a Public Form link via email, text, on your website, and more. 

Receive documents back in a timely manner

Missing deadlines for projects due to incomplete application documents can be a real headache for your team. When switching to mobile applications, you can guarantee that forms are completed within your time restrictions. By adding expiration dates on Public Forms, the recipient has a set amount of time to complete the online application and return back to your team for processing. 

Easily store data 

After an application is complete, team members are responsible for ensuring that the data is then integrated into your systems. This timely process of rekeying can cause project delays and data discrepancies. Once the form is completed, it can be stored instantly in your system. By utilizing Workflows, you can set up the form to be emailed to the stakeholders, stored in Google Drive, or even integrated with Salesforce. Getting started with Workflows is easy, check out this blog post about setting up and integrations available within GoFormz.
