Notion Form Builders: A Comparison of Top Tools

There are numerous ways to create forms and sync responses to Notion databases.
In this post, we’ll explore three popular Notion Form Builders: NoteForms, Tally, and Fillout.
We’ll examine their pros and cons to help you choose the best tool for your needs.

NoteForms

NoteForms is arguably the most popular Notion Form Builder available.

Pros

• Designed specifically for Notion, supporting crucial features like:
  • Relation field support (allows creating form questions that populate relation fields in Notion)
  • People field support (enables creating form questions that populate people fields in Notion)
• Secure file uploads (requires login to view)
• Allows respondents to edit their submissions later
• Supports body field as input
• Automatically loads Notion database properties as form questions

Cons

• Limited free plan:
  • Basic features only
  • No file uploads
  • Single workspace restriction

Tally

Tally offers a Notion-like user interface and can sync with Notion, though it’s not exclusively designed for it.

Pros

• Beautiful, Notion-inspired UI

Cons

• Lacks Notion-specific features:
  • No relation field support (can’t create form questions that populate relation fields in Notion)
  • No people field support (can’t create form questions that populate people fields in Notion)
• Manual setup required to connect Tally forms with Notion databases:
  • You need to create form questions in Tally separately from your Notion database
  • Then you must manually map each Tally form question to the corresponding Notion database property

Fillout

While less known among Notion users, Fillout is a solid form builder that integrates well with Notion.

Pros

• Clean, simple UI
• Generous free plan
• Numerous templates for creating attractive forms
• Automatically loads Notion database properties as form questions

Cons

• Expensive custom domain option
• No people field support (can’t create form questions that populate people fields in Notion)

Recommendation

Based on these comparisons, I recommend either NoteForms or Fillout.

Choose NoteForms if you need:

• To create forms that can directly populate relation and people fields in Notion
• Secure file uploads
• Custom domain and team features (more cost-effective option)

Opt for Fillout if you want:

• A generous free plan
• Clean UI

Tally, while an excellent form builder, requires more manual setup to integrate with Notion and lacks support for some Notion-specific field types.

Remember to consider your specific needs and budget when making your decision.
