About This Feature

Overview

User Name is used to configure and manage name-related settings in the voting module of Smart Forms. It helps form creators control how the name item is set up before collecting responses.

Core tasks include:

  • Open the User Name setting entry in the voting workflow.
  • Adjust the setting, preview the result, and confirm the change.

This feature fits scenarios such as surveys, event sign-ups, internal voting, and lightweight response collection. It helps you finish setup faster and check the display result before sharing a form.

Capability SummaryProvides a User Name setting entry in Smart Forms voting workflows, with a setup panel for parameter changes, preview, and confirmation.Microsoft Forms lets form owners use Record name in form settings to identify responders inside an organization and control who can respond.Google Forms can identify responders by collecting verified email addresses or responder-entered email addresses, but the official guidance focuses on email collection rather than a separate name setting.Notion Forms automatically creates a Respondent property to capture respondent names and also allows anonymous responses in sharing settings.Adobe Acrobat Sign web forms support public form flows and participant configuration. Email is required for participants, while name-related control is more closely tied to recipient-name configuration.

Overall Conclusion: If your main goal is to configure a name item quickly during vote creation, WPS offers a more direct setup path. If your team needs stronger organization identity controls, email-based identification, or signing workflows, the alternatives emphasize those areas differently.
