What is your workaround to have nice looking interface for capturing requests?

The current embedded forms look like this:

compared to what moderd design has to offer, this looks poor.

Examples

@workfront support any plan to make this look better?

Main pain points:

  • A lot of useless white space
  • everything left aligned
  • limited organization of fields (custom fields cannot be mixed with default fields)
  • lack of branding
  • lack of visual elemnts
  • outdated UI

I agree, the forms are frustrating as are the reports. It would be really nice if we could create our own style sheets.

I'll definitely include you in the list and we will get in touch with you! As you see, a lot of people signed up for this and we will be contacting different groups in different stages of the research.

Looking forward to talking to you.

In addition to the research Gevorg is currently working on, we are going to update the embedded request form experience to the new one found in NWE as well. The update is currently targeted for 21.4 release.

But, to answer your specific question Rafal, My company has looked at a couple third party vendors that came back with costly solutions that we did not have the budget for. And we are about to talk to a new vendor about the same thing.

Hi @Tim Vasilovic‚ , we were thinking about dedicated webpage as well. We have developers inhouse so cost would be moderate, but in terms of maintenance it is more problematic.

  • You have 2 servers to watchout for, if any of them is down users cannot submit requests.
  • any updates in intake form need to be replicated on the webpage simultaneously.

So excited to see this. My company has been asking about how to improve this for 3+ years and still trying to figure it out! Would love to hear more about this as it progresses.
