Automate Formstack integrations
Forms are the simplest way to elicit feedback or gather information, but the data they pull in needs to be put to good use. Formstack and Nekton allow you to automate the process by automatically sending form submissions to any app you use—turning responses into actionable information. That means less time focusing on data entry and more time on data analysis.
