Good product with still a lot of room for improvement

I love the product as it aligns with my preference for tools that focus on simplicity and perform their functions well. Still, I think that specially in terms of UX, but also in terms of functionality, there is room for improvement.

UX issues:
1. I personally don't like that adding an element opens a pop up that overlays the form structure I am working on, as many times when adding a new element I still need to check the structure of other fields in the form, it would be much better IMO to have a two columns approach to adding elements, where you can have the form structure in the left side, and the configuration of the new element in the right side.
2. That I can not convert a field type into another one is an issue for me, many times I added a short-text and wanted to transform it into a long-text and this is not possible. I find this frustrating.
4. Is great to have a "spacer" field, but I think it should be an extra "extra small" option to it, or an option to add manually the height of it.

Functionality:
1. Having the possibility to add my custom domain and then add the slug I want is great, BUT having to still using a unique identifier after the slug kinds of kills the purpose of creating an easy to remember slug for the form.
2. A huge feature missing to me is the possibility to have multi step forms (it seems like is coming)

In the good side of things:
1. I love that I can add a custom domain and custom SMTP
2. I love the extensive options to brand the forms in the style I want. Big plus!

Overall I love the tool, but as said, there is still room for improvement.

Love! đź’š

Thanks for your feedback. We'll look into your points and think of ways to improve. After all, Deftform is less than a year old, still evolving and likely to change over time.
