Contour - our brand new
form designer that makes creating contact forms, entry forms and
questionnaires just as easy as editing content - is finally
released. It's the best thing we've ever made and it's also the
most relevant product we've shipped.
Until this date making online forms with Umbraco have been
either developer work, hacks using AutoForm/Doc2Form or other
creative but odd solutions. Odd because the techniques used were
never meant to deal with gathering form data.
Contour is designed for that purpose only. It has taken nearly
three years to come up with the perfect balance where simplicity
and functional depth goes hand-in-hand - just like Umbraco. But
over the summer the pieces came together and I'm really sure you'll
love it. Whether it's simple contact forms, huge questionnaires or
making "web2.0'ish" functionality like user-generated content it
got you covered.
Contour is also the first product that follows our new pricing
strategy where you don't need to purchase Umbraco PRO. Contour is
priced at just EUR199, but the rest of the year we're giving it away for a mere of
99EUR.
That was a lot of words. Tim Geyssens have done a great job of
showing it instead - enjoy:
