About This Feature

Overview

Core tasks include:

Open Message Notification Settings from the form editor and relay module.

Compare with Alternatives

Dimension	WPS	Microsoft	Google	Notion	Adobe
Capability Summary	Provides a Message Notification Settings entry inside the Smart Forms relay editing flow, so reminder settings can be configured and saved during editing.	Microsoft Forms can turn on email notifications for each response and send reminders to people who have not responded.	Google Forms can send email notifications for new responses, while broader follow-up notification workflows often rely on add-ons.	Notion Forms can send an email copy of each submission, and more advanced follow-up workflows can be built with database automations.	Adobe Acrobat focuses on document status notifications, while Acrobat Sign supports recurring reminders in signing workflows.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: reminder settings are placed directly in the relay editing flow, which is convenient when building a form. Distinct: the current feature is available without membership.	Compared with WPS: notification and reminder actions are centered on form responses and email follow-up, with settings spread across different areas.	Compared with WPS: native notification support is mainly for new response emails, and extended reminder workflows usually need extra tools.	Compared with WPS: forms and automations are flexible, but some automation capabilities depend on paid plans.	Compared with WPS: notification features are more aligned with document review and signature workflows than general relay collection scenarios.

Overall Conclusion
WPS keeps reminder configuration close to the relay creation workflow, which is practical for users who want to set up notifications while editing a form. Other products also offer notification or reminder features, but they are more focused on response emails, automations, or signature processes.
