Gravity Forms calculator alternative
Learn why Cost Calculator is a better option for creating quote, estimates and any kind of form calculator.
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
01Gravity 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
02Gravity 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!
03Gravity 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 FREE ALTERNATIVE
Why pay $59 for Gravity Forms when you can get Cost Calculator for free?
Our free version is packed with so many features you might not even need the Pro version!
FEATURE COMPARISON
How does Gravity Forms compare to Cost Calculator?
Let's take a look as key cost calculator features.
Gravity Forms quote calculator
Gravity forms quote calculators a basic. You’re just capturing data.
You can receive submissions by email or route them to a third party system via an integration, but you can’t manage orders.
Cost Calculator offers an Orders Management dashboard where you can view, manage and action every quote submission.
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.
The bad news is that this is an extra cost AND usability isn’t great.
With Cost Calculator, you define conditions and logic on a drag-and-drop canvas. Try it out now.
Gravity Forms advanced calculations
Gravity Forms advanced calculations are not that advanced.
You will need to use an add on like Gravity Wiz Advanced Calculations and be a... mathematics wiz and enter formulas in a blank field!
Cost Calculator makes it easy for anyone to quickly create advacned calculations in quote forms. Check out a live demo.
Gravity Forms WooCommerce price calculator
Need to extend pricing options for your WooCommerce products?
You’ll need to find an add such as Gravity Forms Product Add-Ons and pay over $100/year for it, on top of the Gravity Forms licence.
Cost Calculator is fully compatible with WooCommerce, bringing powerful price calculations to each product. Learn more.

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.
Yes, absolutely. Calculations and storing values to display totals make the plugin work! As mentioned in the previous FAQ, there are different ways to handle values. Any Gravity Form calculation can be made using Cost Calculator.
Yes! Considering you’re likely to need one or two more add-ons for conditions and calculations, the Pro version of StylemixThemes Cost Calculator works out to be less than half the price. Our free plugin is a viable Gravity Forms free alternative too.
We offer both annual and lifetime licences, with the latter starting at $169 and including lifetime support and updates.
Absolutely! Unlike Gravity Forms, we offer a free version of the plugin that is packed with features.
