Internal communication, collecting requests, approving manual tasks, and a lot more. These all have their place in the internal structure of a company or an organization. There are plenty of tools that are quite good at doing each and every one of them. 

However, especially since the entire world went into lockdown, things have changed a bit. Most of us are working remotely now and things that we used to just walk up and ask are now done through archaic methods such as writing an email, calling said person or department. In a time, where almost everything is automated, why shouldn’t asking for something and getting a response be automated as well?

It definitely should and in fact, it’s possible. In this article, we’ll be reviewing JotForm Approvals, a tool created to transform your online forms into easy-to-implement and effective approval flows. 

Ease-of-Use

Just like JotForm itself, JotForm Approvals is extremely easy to set up and use. All you have to do is to have a JotForm account and once you sign in, you can create your own approval flow within minutes. All you need is to create a form or pick a template that suits your needs. Once you’ve picked which form you want to use in your flow, all you need to do is to create the flow through the settings menu. For more information, you can check the screenshots below:

It’s also extremely easy to manage and track the submissions you get through your approval flow. The JotForm Inbox instantly notifies you when you receive a new submission and you can instantly view the request and based on the information you can approve it or, if you want, reject it right away. 

Mobile-Friendly

JotForm Approvals works with mobile devices well too. After all, the idea is to make life easier and as we’re always on our mobile phones, it wouldn’t make sense if JotForm Approvals wasn’t a beast on mobile as well. 

JotForm Approvals works great on mobile browsers just like JotForm but what’s better is that it also works smoothly on the JotForm Mobile Forms app. Anyone who has the app or downloads it can create time-saving approval flows while on the go. 

Templates

JotForm Approvals was launched recently but there are already more than a hundred ready-to-use templates available. All of the templates are crafted carefully with professionals that actually use them in their daily life. 

Although creating a form and turning it into an approval flow is extremely fast and easy, you can save even more time by just picking a template that covers your need and as always you have the option to tweak the template to fit your needs exactly as you need it to. 

Wrapping Up

Generally people tend to think of Google Forms when looking for an online form builder but one should definitely check out the Google Forms alternatives when selecting the right tool for their business. JotForm is already a robust online form builder and a great alternative to Google Forms. With new features and products coming out constantly, it has gone above and beyond what we would expect from a simple online form builder. The fact that there are so many use cases, a rich portfolio of interesting and useful features, thousands of templates solidifies our view on this. The launch of JotForm Approvals was just icing on the cake. We never thought that online forms could be utilized in such a way but once we tried it out, it made a whole lot of sense. If you think you need to reduce your workload by eliminating menial tasks, give JotForm Approvals a try and you’ll see how much time and energy you can save by eliminating just a couple of steps from your daily workflow.
