Old Action Items:

Agenda:

• Demo the forms we made using Typeform and Jotform, share pros/cons
• Confirm which form is more fit for what the client would like (Typeform vs Jotform) 
• Confirm the budget 

 

Discussion:

• Typeform
  • Pros: 
    • The interface is very nice looking
  • Cons
    • PDF should be sent to google drive but the format is all wrong
  • Shweta will go on a call with customer service to get help with this.
  • Price adds up because there’s many apps we have to subscibe to.
• Jotform
  • Pros:
    • When given a pdf, all the fields can be customizable and fillable. Can also add fields like student ID.
    • Option to integrate with google sheets or google drive
      • Google sheets allow to connect submissions with the form so the necessary student information can be stored in the client google sheet database. 
    • There’s an embed link which can allow jotform to go into the github page. So after you click voter registration →  new york state → jotform
  • Cons:
    • So far we haven’t been able to connect it to google drive
      • Maybe we can make the forms be emailed to the client
    • Might not be able to autopopulate based on existing filled out forms.
• Which do we think is better?
  • Jotform looks better to us. 
    • Shweta will keep working on typeform just in case. 
• Client budget
  • Jotform: 
    • 29.99$/month → create a 100 forms and receive 10,000 submissions a month.
• Voter App Documentation on google drive
  • Will be completed into a manual to help the client
  • Already consists of the email account that was created for the client’s use.

 

Deliverables:

• Look more into typeform
• Get more information about how to integrate google drive into jotform
• Find out if auto population based on existing filled out form is possible.
