Compare with Alternatives

Dimension	WPS	Microsoft	Google	Notion	Adobe
Capability Summary	Provides an After Submission entry in the file collection workflow of WPS Forms, where you can adjust related settings, preview the result, and confirm the setup.	Microsoft Forms lets form owners customize the thank-you message, hide the option to submit another response, and allow responders to save or print responses after submission.	Google Forms lets owners change the confirmation message after submission and allow responders to edit their responses.	Notion Forms lets owners configure the submit screen, including the confirmation title and confirmation body, and control some post-submission access settings.	Adobe Acrobat Sign web forms focus on public web forms and agreement completion flows, with completion notifications rather than a dedicated thank-you-page setup flow.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: The setup is part of the file collection editing flow, so you can move from entry selection to option changes and preview in one workflow.	Compared with WPS: Microsoft emphasizes general form settings and thank-you-page options rather than a file collection editing flow.	Compared with WPS: Google offers confirmation-message editing, but its post-submission settings are centered on general form presentation and response management.	Compared with WPS: Notion supports submit-screen customization, but form creation and customization are handled mainly in desktop and web environments.	Compared with WPS: Adobe centers on signing and agreement completion notifications instead of file collection post-submission page setup.

Overall Conclusion
After Submission in WPS fits directly into the WPS Forms file collection workflow on Windows, which makes it practical when you want to finish post-submission setup during form creation. Other products also provide confirmation or response-management features after submission, but they focus more on general form settings, database-backed forms, or signing workflows.
