Pros & Cons
Dashpivot
Pros
- Reviewers repeatedly praise how far forms can be customised, including calculations, logic, and automation.

FFARO Sphere XG
Pros

- A SOC 2 Type 2 examination by A-LIGN covers FARO Sphere and HoloBuilder.
- Capterra reviewers give it a high average rating and mention responsive customer support.
Cons
- There is no public pricing. Every package needs a custom quote from FARO.
