Compare with Alternatives

Dimension	WPS	Microsoft	Google	Notion	Adobe
Capability Summary	Supports entering the Multiple Selections setup in Smart Forms poll scenarios, then completing parameter setup, preview, and confirmation.	Microsoft Forms provides Choice and Ranking question types; Choice can allow multiple answers, while Ranking is a separate question type.	Google Forms can set a select-at-most rule for checkbox questions and can also use grid settings to limit one response per column.	Notion Forms supports multiple-choice style questions and lets multi-select questions set a maximum number of selections.	Adobe Acrobat mainly provides PDF form fields such as list boxes, check boxes, radio buttons, and text fields.
WPS Advantages	Distinct: WPS keeps entry access, parameter setup, and preview confirmation in one poll configuration flow for direct form-building work.	Compared with WPS: multiple answers and ranking are described as separate question types in the official workflow, so they need separate design.	Compared with WPS: selection limits can be handled through rules and grid settings, but the official help does not describe a native ranking question type on the cited page.	Compared with WPS: it is centered more on database-backed forms and property settings; form creation and customization are limited to desktop and web apps.	Compared with WPS: the official workflow focuses on PDF form fields rather than a native poll-oriented multiple-selection ranking flow.

Overall Conclusion
WPS Multiple Selections is a practical fit for users who are already building poll content in Smart Forms and want to finish setup, preview, and confirmation in one workflow. Other products can cover part of the need for multiple answers or ranking, but their methods and product focus differ.
