Compare with Alternatives
| Dimension | WPS | Microsoft | Notion | Adobe | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capability Summary | Configure Multiple Selections in the relay module of the Smart Forms editor, with a workflow that covers entry, settings, preview, and save. | Microsoft Forms supports branching for questions or sections, and branching can only go to later questions or sections. | Google Forms supports routing respondents to different sections based on answers, mainly for multiple choice and dropdown questions. | Notion Forms works with databases and supports form building on desktop and web; conditional logic is available on Business and Enterprise plans. | Adobe Acrobat web forms focus on online form collection and e-sign workflows, with publishing and signing rather than section-based survey branching. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: The setup path stays inside the relay editing flow, making it easier to move from configuration to preview and save in one place. | Compared with WPS: Branching is supported, but Microsoft states that routing can only go to consecutive later questions or sections. | Compared with WPS: Answer-based routing is supported, but Google limits this option to Multiple choice and Dropdown question types. | Compared with WPS: Conditional logic is available, but Notion states that it is tied to Business and Enterprise plans, and form creation and customization are done on desktop and web. | Compared with WPS: Adobe emphasizes web forms for signing and collection workflows, so its focus is adjacent rather than the same segmented relay setup. |

Overall Conclusion
WPS Multiple Selections fits directly into the relay creation flow on macOS, so setup, checking, and saving can be completed in one editing context. Other products also provide branching or online form tools, but their focus and limits differ by product.
