About This Feature

Overview

WPS Contacts is a contact setup feature in the Smart Forms relay workflow on Windows. It helps you manage contact information in an online form workflow by letting you open the Contacts entry, adjust related settings, preview the result, and save the configuration while creating a relay form.

Core tasks include:

  • Open the Contacts entry: go to the Relay module in the form editor and open Contacts.
  • Set contact options: complete the contact-related settings in the pop-up panel.
  • Preview the contact result: review the current display before saving.
  • Save and update the configuration: confirm the settings so later relay use follows the updated contact setup.

This feature fits event registration, information collection, internal notice relays, and team sign-up workflows, making contact details easier to manage in one editing flow.

DimensionWPSMicrosoftGoogleNotionAdobe
Capability SummaryProvides a Contacts entry inside the Smart Forms relay workflow, where you can set, preview, and save contact-related content in the editing interface.Microsoft Forms lets users create forms, choose who can respond, and collect responses, but contact details are usually handled through question fields or response identity settings.Google Forms lets users add questions, collect email addresses, and control response settings, which works for contact collection through fields and settings.Notion Forms connects questions to database properties and can capture Respondent or Created by information, which helps link contact details with database records.Adobe Acrobat supports web forms built from PDF forms, with fields, shared links, and downloadable form data, so it is more focused on PDF-based form workflows.
WPS AdvantagesAdvantage: Contacts is placed directly in the relay creation flow, so opening the entry, adjusting options, previewing, and saving can all happen in one editing view.Compared with WPS: It is more focused on general form sharing and response collection, rather than a dedicated contact step inside a relay workflow.Compared with WPS: It is effective for collecting contact details through questions and email collection, but it does not provide a relay-style Contacts entry.Compared with WPS: It offers stronger database linkage, but form creation and customization are mainly handled in desktop and web environments.Compared with WPS: It is better suited to PDF-based online form collection, where contact handling depends on form field design.

Overall Conclusion
If your main goal is to configure contact details quickly during relay creation, WPS keeps the workflow more centralized inside the form editor. Other products can also collect contact information, but they usually do so through general form fields, database properties, or PDF fields rather than a relay-specific contact setup flow.
