Capability SummaryProvides a fill-in-the-blank setup entry in the Forms exam workflow, with editing, parameter setup, preview, and confirmation steps.Microsoft Forms can create quizzes and supports question types such as Text, Choice, Rating, Date, Ranking, Likert, File upload, and NPS, but the official page does not describe a dedicated fill-in-the-blank mode.Google Forms can turn a form into a quiz and supports short answer questions, answer keys, points, and feedback, which can be used for fill-in-the-blank-style responses.Notion Forms supports text, multiple-choice, and other question types connected to databases, but the official page does not describe a native quiz grading workflow for fill-in-the-blank exams.Adobe Acrobat supports interactive PDF text fields for form filling, but the official Acrobat page does not describe a quiz-style fill-in-the-blank scoring workflow.
WPS AdvantagesAdvantage: the entry is organized directly inside the Forms exam workflow, so setup is closer to the quiz authoring path. Distinct: the path from opening the question type to preview and confirmation is centralized.Compared with WPS: the official capability focuses on general quiz question types and scoring settings rather than a separately described fill-in-the-blank exam entry.Compared with WPS: short answer can achieve a similar response pattern and includes answer keys and grading, but the setup is described as a general quiz flow.Compared with WPS: the product is more focused on data collection and workspace workflows, and some conditional logic features are tied to paid plans.Compared with WPS: the product is more focused on PDF form completion and text entry than on an online exam authoring flow.

Overall Conclusion
If your main goal is to configure fill-in-the-blank questions inside an exam workflow, WPS keeps the entry path closer to quiz creation. Google Forms is also practical for short-answer quiz grading, while Notion and Adobe are more aligned with form collection or document-filling scenarios.
