Capability Summary	In the Smart Forms editor, you can open Cross Analysis from the Check-in module, then configure options, preview the result, and confirm the setup.	Microsoft Forms supports branching for questions or sections so respondents can be sent to later questions, sections, or the end of the form based on answers.	Google Forms supports answer-based routing to different sections and can also submit the form based on an answer.	Notion Forms connects forms to databases and supports conditional logic; conditional logic is available on Business and Enterprise plans.	Adobe Acrobat web forms support creating and publishing online forms for sharing by link or embedding on a website.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: The Cross Analysis entry is part of the check-in creation flow, and setup, preview, and confirmation are handled in one editing path.	Compared with WPS: the official page focuses on general branching logic and notes that branching goes only to later questions or sections.	Compared with WPS: the official page focuses on section-based routing for survey flows.	Compared with WPS: conditional logic depends on higher-tier plans, and form creation and customization are handled on desktop and web apps.	Compared with WPS: the official workflow is centered on publishing public web forms and e-sign scenarios rather than a check-in configuration flow.

Overall Conclusion
WPS Cross Analysis is a practical fit for users who already configure check-in workflows inside Smart Forms and want a focused setup path in the editor. If your needs are closer to general survey branching, database-backed forms, or public web form publishing, the other platforms provide different strengths for those scenarios.
