Build friendly forms on the fly
Both PandaDoc and Ninja Forms are designed to help you quickly build forms using drag and drop tools. With Ninja Forms, you’ll download the Ninja Forms plugin to your WordPress site and create your forms from your website backend. PandaDoc users will create forms through the PandaDoc platform and then publish them to their website using an HTML/CSS-friendly embed code. While this might seem like a minor change, it’s the reason that PandaDoc is able to safely offer a secure, HIPAA-compliant forms solution where Ninja Forms can’t.
Your form, your way
Whether you need to create a simple contact form, a signup/registration form, or a custom form for a specific purpose, PandaDoc, and Ninja Forms both do a fine job. Both tools offer HTML/CSS styling options, which makes it easy to customize your form fields so that they fit the look and feel of your website. Like Ninja Forms, PandaDoc also offers complex form creation tools that go beyond text fields. This includes checkboxes, dropdowns, electronic signature options, file uploads, and more.
No more add-ons
If you aren’t paying for the agency plan with Ninja Forms, you’ll need to consider your options carefully before you buy. Ninja Forms add-ons can increase form functionality, but these are costly additions to the base price (paid annually). Some tools, like the Ninja Forms layout and style options, are included. Other tools, like some of the email marketing tools, may incur additional costs. With PandaDoc, you don’t have to worry about any of that. Everything we offer is included in our standard plans — no expensive add-ons required.
Take your forms anywhere
While you can access your WordPress backend using a mobile platform, PandaDoc makes it even easier to consolidate your form responses and take them with you everywhere. Using the PandaDoc app, you’ll have access to all of your data without having to wrestle with a contact form plugin on your mobile device. Because your information is stored in your PandaDoc account, which relies on our own security measures, you can keep your data mobile and completely separate from the rest of your website in a safe and reliable way.
Support when you need it
Ninja Forms offers support during normal business hours, but what if you have a question that you need to answer before you can post your WordPress form? With Ninja Forms, you could be waiting up to eight hours before you get a response. PandaDoc takes a different approach to support by offering 24/7/365 chat support to every customer — even customers using the free version of our software tools! With PandaDoc, you can get your questions answered and get back to work in record time!

Robust document editing tools
If you’re switching from Ninja Forms, you’ll be right at home with the PandaDoc editor without the need to watch extra tutorials. Our drag and drop editing tools offer increased functionality compared to the document builder inside the Ninja FormsWordPress plugin, but they operate on the same basic principles. If you already have the skills, you can just open up PandaDoc and get started!
Create proposals, contracts, and more
PandaDoc is designed to go beyond WordPresswidgets and form creators. The PandaDoc document editor has all the tools you need to create incredible documents like sales proposals, quotes, contracts, and much more. While PandaDoc Forms are one great aspect of our sales software, you’ll have everything you need to build all of the essential documents that your business needs to function.
Collect legally binding electronic signatures
When it’s time to sign a digital contract, capturing a legally-binding electronic signature can help you avoid legal trouble later on. This is also true for every kind of document, from major business contracts to school permission slips. PandaDoc allows users to seamlessly capture e-signatures on every type of document, including website forms, and create unique digital certificates at the time of signature.
100% secure and HIPAA compliant
Like other WordPress plugins (WPForms, Gravity Forms, etc.) and widgets, Ninja Forms doesn’t offer HIPAA-compliant web forms or reliable data security because of how WordPress plugins work. While a WordPress plugin can capture information on your behalf, that information is stored on your web server. Ultimately, this means that if you wanted to offer HIPAA compliance, you would need to control all aspects of data transfer. For most small businesses, especially those using shared hosting, this is impractical. PandaDoc is able to offer HIPAA-compliant forms and documentation because we control our digital and physical infrastructure. When you use our forms, your data is transmitted directly to our network, meaning that your forms are HIPAA-compliant (provided that you’ve signed a BAA with us).
Huge integration options
Integration tools to help you connect your documents to major software applications, and both Ninja Forms and PandaDoc offer a variety of integration options, including connections to payment gateways like PayPal or Stripe and third-party connectors via Zapier. If you’re looking for subscriber-friendly email marketing tools like Constant Contact, Campaign Monitor, and MailChimp, Ninja Forms might be the best fit. PandaDoc integrates with CRM tools like Salesforce and HubSpot, as well as productivity and design tools that help you improve the look and feel of your sales documents.
Analyze and export your data
PandaDoc offers analytics and insights to help you better understand how users are interacting with your documents, but we also offer a fast and easy way to export your information for quick analysis and collation. Like Ninja Forms, users can display submissions by integrating with Google Sheets via Zapier and creating charts and graphs that are easy to display on any website using a Google shortcode.
