|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capability Summary | In the Smart Form relay workflow on macOS, WPS provides a User Name settings entry. You can open the relay section in the editor, configure the name field, and then continue with preview or publishing after saving. | Microsoft Forms lets form owners control who can respond and, in organization scenarios, record responder names. It can also limit one response per person. | Google Forms can collect respondent email addresses and manage responses with required questions and response settings. | Notion Forms automatically creates a Respondent property to capture names, and it can also allow anonymous responses. | Adobe Acrobat Sign web forms can require a recipient name during agreement or web form configuration and use that name in the signing flow. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: The User Name setting is part of the relay editing flow, which helps complete field setup quickly. Advantage: The same editing view supports follow-up preview and save actions without switching workflows. | Compared with WPS: It focuses more on responder identity and organization access settings than on a relay-style field configuration flow. | Compared with WPS: It focuses more on email collection and response management, while names are usually gathered through question design or account identity. | Compared with WPS: It can capture a Respondent automatically, but form creation and customization are mainly handled in desktop and web apps, with mobile creation limitations. | Compared with WPS: It is more oriented to signing and agreement web forms, where name requirements are tied to signature workflows rather than lightweight relay setup. |

Overall Conclusion
WPS User Name is closely aligned with the relay editing flow on macOS, making it suitable for quickly setting a name field and continuing to publish the form. Other products also support identity-related collection, but they focus more on organization forms, email collection, database-backed forms, or signing workflows.
