What the free edition leaves out
The free edition is genuinely usable, but some team or enterprise features need a paid plan. “Not confirmed” means the official pages we read did not say, so we do not guess.
| Feature | Free edition | Details | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| SSO / SAML | Paid | Hosted: 'SAML / LDAP SSO' is listed only on the Enterprise plan. Self-hosted: OIDC SSO is included within the free 2-user limit; SAML on self-hosted was not confirmed. | Source ↗ |
| Role-based access control | Paid | Hosted Free and Pro plans are 'multi-user, all admins, no roles'; roles and permissions start at Business. Self-hosted: roles are listed under the Enterprise License. | Source ↗ |
| Audit logs | Paid | Listed on the hosted Enterprise plan and the self-hosted Enterprise License only. | Source ↗ |
| Multi-user / teams | Paid | Free self-hosted instances are limited to 2 users; more users need a self-hosted Enterprise license. | Source ↗ |
| Backups and restore | Not confirmed | Docs say self-hosted backups are done manually; no built-in backup tool or procedure was read. | Source ↗ |
| API access | Free | API access is listed on the Free hosted plan and inherited by the paid plans. Self-hosted API access was not checked separately. | Source ↗ |
| Support SLA | Paid | Free plan has community support; priority support on Business; 'SLA & onboarding support' on Enterprise. Self-hosted Enterprise License lists priority support. | Source ↗ |
Best for
Individuals and small teams that want a Typeform-style form builder they can run themselves or use as a hosted service.
Why choose it over Typeform
The core is AGPL-3.0 and can be self-hosted without a license. OIDC SSO is included in the free self-hosted edition, and the hosted free plan lists API access.
Where it falls short
A free self-hosted instance is limited to 2 users. More users, roles and permissions, audit logs, white-labeling and branding removal need an Enterprise license ($1,999 per year per instance on the pricing page). The self-hosted stack is several containers (app, PostgreSQL, Redis) and backups are manual. A feature comparison with Typeform has not been done.
Open-source alternative to
- Typeform — OpnForm is an open-source form builder that can be self-hosted, so it can replace Typeform for building and embedding forms.
