About This Feature

Overview

Data Statistics is a configuration feature inside the Check-in module of WPS Smart Form. It is used to set up and manage statistical options while creating or editing a check-in form, making it easier to review and organize collected results later.

Core tasks include:

Open the Data Statistics entry from the Smart Form editor.
Adjust statistical settings and preview the result.
Save the configuration for later data management.

This workflow is useful for attendance collection, event sign-ins, and recurring reporting tasks where form setup and data review need to stay connected.

Compare with Alternatives

Dimension	WPS	Microsoft	Google	Notion	Adobe
Capability Summary	Data Statistics is configured directly inside Smart Form check-in workflows, so setup, preview, and saving stay within the form editing process.	Excel Analyze Data focuses on analyzing existing spreadsheet data with charts, trends, and PivotTables. Some capabilities are tied to Microsoft 365 subscriptions.	Google Sheets supports data analysis through charts, automatic charts, pivot tables, and automatic pivot tables in spreadsheets.	Notion offers chart views for databases, which helps visualize grouped or time-based data from database properties.	Acrobat can merge completed PDF form responses into a spreadsheet, which supports form-result consolidation rather than in-form statistics setup.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: Data Statistics is configured inside the check-in form workflow instead of requiring a separate spreadsheet analysis step. Distinct: Form setup and statistics setup stay in one editor flow on macOS.	Compared with WPS: Excel is stronger for spreadsheet-based analysis after data is already collected, rather than for built-in check-in form statistics configuration.	Compared with WPS: Sheets emphasizes spreadsheet analysis and charting instead of a built-in check-in form statistics panel.	Compared with WPS: Notion charts are based on database views, and chart editing is separate from direct form-style check-in configuration. Free plans can try one chart.	Compared with WPS: Acrobat is better suited to exporting and merging completed PDF form data, not configuring statistics inside a check-in form editor.

Overall Conclusion
WPS Data Statistics is a practical fit when you want to configure statistics directly inside a Smart Form check-in workflow on macOS. If your main task is deeper spreadsheet analysis after collection, Excel and Google Sheets provide broader spreadsheet analysis tools, while Notion and Adobe cover adjacent database-chart or PDF-form workflows.
