HubSpot forms
Introduction
HubSpot has a default forms module, under Lead Capture. While they are okay for simple forms like a basic HubSpot contact form, they fail to shine when you need advanced functionality.
For example, in HubSpot you cannot:
- Use advanced styling and customization
- Create a multi-step form
- Use nested dependent fields
- Easily add a payment field
Some of these features (especially a multi-step form) can make a huge difference to a business. HubSpot speaks highly of multi-step forms themselves.
If you want advanced form features, it makes sense to look at non-HubSpot form alternatives.
Why use non-HubSpot forms?
Using non-HubSpot forms does involve adding another tool into your toolbox. While there is a small learning curve, it pays for itself several times over in the long run.
In this guide, we will learn how Formcrafts can help you create amazing HubSpot forms with advanced features, and for free.

Styling and customization
Formcrafts gives you complete control over the styling of your form, while ensuring they look pixel-perfect on every device. You can choose from hundreds of fonts, use custom fonts, change color schemes, add form backgrounds etc ...
You can use the Rich text field to add text, lists, images, and videos anywhere on your form.
Create multi-step forms
This is the killer feature. Multi-step forms can take your HubSpot conversion rates to the next level.
As of now default HubSpot forms don't support multi-step forms. The workaround they recommend involves creating two separate forms and redirecting users to form #2 when they finish form #1.
Formcrafts allows you to create true HubSpot multi-step forms with a single click. Other features in Formcrafts' multi-step forms include:
- Add a welcome step with text and images.
- Show form progress
- Use conditional logic to skip steps
- Use dependent fields across steps
Nested dependent fields
Formcrafts has support for nested conditional logic, with any level of depth. This is a powerful tool for creating truly dynamic forms.
You can also use Formcrafts' conditional logic to trigger integrations (like HubSpot) conditionally.
Example, Create a Lead in HubSpot if Issue Type is Sales Inquiry.
Email embeds
You can embed forms in your HubSpot's email marketing campaigns. This allows your users to start the form right from their email, and continue on the website.
- We record partial feedback
- Run advanced analytics
- Track engagement for each field
