Digital forms are the digital version of traditional paper forms. They are used to collect and manage data often through a website or app - like the apps you build with Budibase.
Why should I use Budibase as my form builder?
There primarily three reasons to choose Budibase over other form builders:
- Security - Unlike other platforms, Budibase priortises security. With Budibase, you can build forms on top of your favorite/trusted database and self-host your forms/data within your own infrastructure. This ensures you're always in control of the data.
- Flexibility - With Budibase, you have creative freedom to design forms you're proud of. Budibase's design experience is more flexible than other platforms allowing you to build complex forms with multiple columns, sections, and component types.

So, from a long-term viability perspective, Budibase is far superior than other form builders. It's also open-source!
