Why Australian teams choose Snapforms
Australian hosting, included
Snapforms stores your form data in Australia on every plan, at a price published in Australian dollars. Australian residency is the default rather than a region you have to locate in the documentation or request as an exception.
Forms, documents and signatures in one product
Snapforms includes form building, document generation and e-signature together. A workflow that takes a submission through to a signed document is one product on one plan, not three licences to reconcile.
Room for the team that owns the form
The team that owns a form is rarely one person. Snapforms includes 3 users on Business and 10 on Professional, so the people who build a form, approve what comes in and report on it each have their own login.
Where your form data is stored
Snapforms stores your form data in Australia on every plan. Formstack is a US platform, and its published data security page describes backups and replication entirely within US AWS regions, and no Asia-Pacific residency option appears on the pricing page or in the documentation.
Snapforms vs Formstack
Both products do the same core job: build a form, publish it, and collect and process the responses. These are the differences that matter for Australian teams.
The biggest practical difference is how much you have to buy. Formstack splits forms, documents and signatures into separate products.

|---|---|---|
| Australian data residency Formstack documents US-East to US-West replication with no Asia-Pacific region. | Every plan, by default | Not offered, AWS United States only Source for Australian data residency |

Bringing your forms across
Send us your forms and our team will reproduce them, including the conditional logic, document templates and integrations. Complex builds with substantial conditional logic are the case we expect, so you are not rebuilding by hand.
- Export or share your existing Formstack forms and document templates.
- We rebuild them in Snapforms and map the integrations to your systems.
- Run both in parallel until you are satisfied, then switch the links over.
Not using Formstack yet? There is nothing to move. Start from a ready-made template and we will help you build your first form during the trial.
Snapforms and Formstack: common questions
Not publicly. Formstack's data security documentation describes its infrastructure as AWS in the United States, with replication between the US-East and US-West regions, and no Asia-Pacific residency option is listed on its pricing page. Organisations with a hard onshore requirement need to raise it with their sales team.
Formstack's entry Forms plan is US$99 per month, or US$83 billed annually, for one builder user and 25 forms, with document generation and e-signature requiring the Suite plan at US$299 per month. Snapforms starts at $89 per month in Australian dollars, with document generation and e-signature included on every plan rather than priced as separate modules.
Yes. Rebuilding complex forms is part of onboarding. Send us your existing forms and our team will reproduce the fields, conditional logic, notifications and integrations.
Yes, both are included rather than sold as separate modules. Form answers populate a document template and the signature is captured on the same submission.
Yes, a 30-day free trial with no credit card required. Formstack does not offer a free plan.
