What you give up vs Typeform
- Some features (e.g. advanced branding removal, certain integrations) are reserved for the paid/cloud tier
- Fewer templates and question types than Jotform
- Analytics and reporting are lighter than commercial offerings
- Self-hosting requires a Laravel/PHP + database stack to maintain
What you gain
- • Full data ownership — self-host OpnForm on your own infrastructure.
- • No per-seat SaaS bill (Typeform: response limits and per-form pricing).
- • Open-source code you can audit and extend (AGPL-3.0).
