About This Feature

Overview

Data Statistics is a setup feature used in Smart Forms relay scenarios. It helps form creators configure and manage statistics during editing, check the display effect before saving, and review participation and statistical results after publishing. The feature is located in the relay section of the form editor and fits scenarios such as event sign-ups, information collection, and progress tracking.

Core tasks include:

Open the Data Statistics entry and enter the statistics setup panel in a relay form.

Capability Summary	Configure data statistics inside a Smart Forms relay workflow, adjust settings, preview the result, and review participation and statistics after publishing.	Microsoft Forms supports response summaries, real-time analytics, branching, and export to Excel for further analysis.	Google Forms provides response summaries, per-question and per-person views, and export to Google Sheets or CSV.	Notion Forms connects forms to databases so responses can be reviewed in tables and analyzed with filters, sorts, and chart views.	Adobe Acrobat web forms focus on publishing online forms, tracking status, and managing e-sign workflows rather than in-editor relay statistics setup.
WPS Advantages	Distinct: the statistics entry is part of the relay editing flow, so setup, preview, and confirmation stay in one editing path.	Compared with WPS: response analysis and export are emphasized, while a relay-style statistics setup flow is not described on the cited page.	Compared with WPS: response viewing and export are emphasized more than a relay-centered setup flow in the editor.	Compared with WPS: analysis depends on database views and charts, and form creation or customization is limited to desktop and web.	Compared with WPS: the official workflow is centered on publishing and tracking web forms for e-sign scenarios instead of relay editing.

Overall Conclusion
If your main goal is to configure statistics during form editing in a relay workflow, WPS keeps the path more focused inside the same editor. The other products provide strong response review, export, database analysis, or web-form management, but their official workflows emphasize different product models.
