What is Formbricks?

Formbricks is an open-source survey platform, described by its makers as an open-source Qualtrics alternative, for link surveys, website surveys and in-app feedback. The core is licensed under AGPLv3 and can be self-hosted with Docker without a subscription. The free Formbricks Cloud plan includes one workspace and 250 responses a month, with conditional logic, file uploads and full API access.

  • In-product surveys as well as link surveys
  • Free cloud plan includes the API

Cons: where it falls short

  • Free cloud plan is capped at 250 responses a month
  • Self-hosting needs technical setup
