3 GOOD REASONS TO CHOOSE COST CALCULATOR INSTEAD OF GRAVITY FORMS

Gravity Forms was not built for calculations

You need to purchase separate add ons like Gravity Forms Advanced Calculations
01

Gravity Forms is a powerful form builder but doesn’t allow for complex calculations natively. You need to purchase a separate add on such as Gravity Forms Advanced Calculations.

Cost Calculator exists to make powerful form calculations a breeze. See a demo.

Gravity Forms calculators don’t look as good and convert as well
02

Gravity Forms do a good job at capturing submissions but are not designed to offer an interactive calculator tool. This impacts the conversion rates. Layout options are limited too.

Cost Calculator forms look great, are interactive and offer better conversion rates. Check out some examples.

Gravity Forms costs more than twice as much!
03

Gravity Forms costs $59 for a single site but you’ll need to purchase an add on for advanced calculations, bringing the total to over $100!

Cost Calculator costs $49 for a single site, and that’s all you need. We offer a free version too!

Why is Cost Calculator cheaper?

The renewal price is the same as what you originally paid.

WPForms and Formidable Forms cost twice as much when you renew after the first year - check their small print.

We offer a lifetime licence.

Saving you hundreds of dollars over the years.

Gravity Forms conditional pricing

Again, you’ll need to purchase an add on such as Gravity Wiz Conditional Pricing to access more powerful conditional pricing features.

Frequently Asked Questions

Not at all. Gravity Forms is a generic form builder that can be used for many different use cases. It does many things well enough. StylemixThemes Cost Calculator was developed specifically for quote forms, estimations and pricing calculations and is a much more powerful tool for these functions.

Actually, Gravity Form’s conditional logic isn’t very flexible. You’re defining logic row-by-row in a linear way, choosing AND or OR as the operator for all conditions. We’ve build a canvas allowing you to visually create a conditional logic flow. It’s much more powerful and intuitive.

Gravity Forms dynamic pricing isn't that dynamic unless you purchase an add on such as Gravity Wiz's Conditional Pricing, which will set you back $59 a year on top of Gravity Forms' own cost. StylemixThemes Cost Calculator offers dynamic pricing via the Conditional System, WooCommerce Price Calculator and Variable Products pricing function. So you have different ways to achieve dynamic pricing.
