Capability Summary	Provides a Contacts entry point in the voting workflow of Smart Forms, where you can open a panel, adjust settings, and confirm the configuration.	Microsoft Forms lets you send a form and choose contacts, groups, or channels as invitees, with a focus on distribution and response collection.	Google Forms lets you share a form with people or groups and notify responders after publishing.	Notion Forms can capture respondent information and supports anonymous responses or link-based access.	Adobe Acrobat Sign web forms support public URLs, multi-participant flows, and email collection during the process.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: Contacts settings are placed directly in the voting editing flow, which helps you complete setup and confirmation in one continuous path.	Compared with WPS: more focused on sending invitations and collecting responses, rather than keeping contact setup inside the same voting editing flow.	Compared with WPS: more focused on publishing, sharing, and response permissions, with less direct linkage to vote editing.	Compared with WPS: better suited to database-based form collection, and some creation or customization actions are limited to desktop and web apps.	Compared with WPS: more focused on signing workflows and participant verification, which serves a different use case from vote contact setup.
