For forms and surveys, the practical question is whether a tool looks healthy enough to adopt, not just whether it has a familiar name. ToolVitals data for June 2026 compares Forms & Surveys Tools using ToolVitals score, health_score, shipping_score, GitHub stars, openness_label, license_label, and status.
This ranking includes only open/source-visible tools from the supplied set. Tools are ordered by ToolVitals score first, with GitHub stars used as a secondary popularity signal for ties; every listed tool is labeled OSI-approved OSS, with license_label values of MIT, LGPL-2.1, AGPL-3.0, or OSL-3.0.
