Capability SummaryProvides an Other Settings entry inside the Smart Forms file collection workflow, where you can open a configuration panel, adjust related parameters, preview the result, and confirm the changes.Microsoft Forms provides a settings pane for form-level options such as responder scope, start and end dates, progress display, and response receipts.Google Forms supports file upload questions with controls for file type, file count, and maximum file size.Notion Forms lets users configure question descriptions, required fields, sharing options, and submission experience in the form builder.Adobe Acrobat web forms focus on e-sign workflows, with options for creating web forms and configuring access or identity verification.
WPS AdvantagesAdvantage: The file collection entry and Other Settings are kept in the same creation flow, which helps you complete setup and preview in one editing session.Compared with WPS: It focuses more on general form response settings, and file collection is more closely tied to organization account conditions.Compared with WPS: File upload controls are detailed, but they depend on Google account sign-in and Google Drive storage rules.Compared with WPS: Database-connected forms are flexible, but some advanced logic is tied to paid plans.Compared with WPS: It is more suitable for signature and verification workflows than for routine file collection setup.

Overall Conclusion
WPS Other Settings is closely aligned with the file collection creation flow, making it practical when you want to configure, preview, and confirm changes in one place. If your priority is broader survey settings, database-driven forms, or e-sign workflows, the other platforms also provide official options, but their focus is different.
