Unlimited form submissions, actually free actually free
Jotform's free plan caps out at 100 submissions a month and 500 stored responses total, after that you are choosing a paid tier. Dunefox forms have no submission cap on the free plan, and every response becomes a scored lead in a CRM rather than a row waiting to be exported.

Dunefox vs Jotform
Both let you build a form without code. The difference is what happens once someone submits it, and whether that submission ever hits a wall.

| Branding on free forms | None | Jotform branded |
| Encrypted submissions | Yes | Yes |
| Conditional logic and branching | Yes | Yes |

| Every submission becomes a lead record | Automatic | Manual export |
| AI intent score on each response | 0 to 100 | Not available |

What a Jotform plan actually costs
The free plan looks generous until the caps show up, which is usually the exact moment people start searching for Jotform alternatives. Three numbers decide which paid tier you end up on.
The monthly submission cap
The free plan stops at 100 submissions a month. Cross that and forms stop accepting responses until the next cycle, or until you upgrade.
The lifetime storage cap
Even under 100 a month, the free plan stops storing new submissions once 500 total have accumulated. A slow, steady form still hits a wall eventually.
Branding and views
Free forms carry Jotform branding and are capped at 1,000 monthly views, both of which go away only on a paid plan.
A form that feeds a pipeline, not a spreadsheet
Jotform is a form builder with an inbox of responses behind it. Dunefox treats a submission as the first message in a conversation.
Where Dunefox wins
Every response is scored on arrival
A submission is read for intent and scored from 0 to 100 the moment it lands, so your team knows which one to call first without opening a spreadsheet.
Follow up starts itself
Connect WhatsApp and a submission can trigger an automatic first reply, rather than sitting until someone remembers to check the form results.
One record, not an export
A submission becomes a contact record with the form answers attached, in the same place your team already handles support conversations.
Both feedback and lead forms
Build a lead form for enquiries and a separate feedback form for customer satisfaction, both free and unlimited, both routing into the same CRM.
A general online form builder underneath
Beyond the two ready-made form types, the same no-code builder works as a general online form builder for anything you need to collect, not just leads and feedback.
Choose Jotform if
Jotform has had years to build out a dedicated form builder. Some jobs genuinely need that depth.
You need to collect payment directly on the form itself, Jotform has this natively; Dunefox forms do not.
You want hundreds of ready-made templates and PDF generation from submissions to configure rather than build.
Forms are the entire job, not the start of a customer conversation, and you have no need for a CRM or follow up behind them.
Moving off Jotform
- 1
Rebuild your top forms
Form definitions do not import between platforms. Start with the one or two forms carrying most of your submissions and rebuild them in the no-code builder, most take a few minutes.
- 2
Connect WhatsApp if you want follow up
Add the WhatsApp channel so a new submission can trigger an automatic reply, this is the piece Jotform does not have.
- 3
Point your links and embeds at the new form
Swap the embed code or shared link on your site, and keep the Jotform version live until traffic has fully moved.
Where a Dunefox form actually leads
Questions about switching from Jotform
Only up to a point. Jotform's free Starter plan allows 5 forms and 100 submissions a month, and stops storing new submissions once 500 have accumulated in total, even if you never hit the monthly cap. Free forms also carry Jotform branding. Businesses searching for a Jotform alternative are usually the ones who hit one of these three limits. Dunefox forms have none of them on the free plan.
