Compare with Alternatives
| Dimension | WPS | Microsoft | Notion | Adobe | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capability Summary | In Smart Forms relay workflows, WPS provides an After Submission entry for opening the settings panel, adjusting options, previewing the result, and confirming the setup. | Microsoft Forms supports a custom thank-you message and lets owners control whether respondents can save or edit responses, submit another response, or receive a response receipt. | Google Forms lets owners change the confirmation message after submission and also supports response editing and response summary visibility. | Notion Forms lets creators configure the submit screen, including confirmation title, confirmation body, and email copies of submissions. | Adobe Acrobat Sign Web Forms focuses on web-based signing flows, with options such as email verification, progress saving, and related post-submission controls. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: WPS keeps the entry, option adjustment, preview, and confirmation steps inside one Smart Forms editing flow, which fits relay-style form setup on macOS. | Compared with WPS: Microsoft focuses more on thank-you page behavior and response receipt controls for general online forms. | Compared with WPS: Google centers post-submit settings on confirmation messaging and responder controls in published forms. | Compared with WPS: Notion offers a richer submit screen, but form creation and customization are limited to desktop and web apps. | Compared with WPS: Adobe is oriented more toward signing workflows than lightweight information collection forms. |

Overall Conclusion
If you want to configure the post-submit experience quickly in a relay workflow on macOS, WPS offers a direct path inside the same editing process. Other products also provide post-submission controls, but they focus more on general surveys, database-backed forms, or signing workflows.
