In the realm of business management, forms are crucial for gathering essential information to optimize company operations. The traditional method of using physical forms was not only time-consuming but also energy intensive. Recognizing this inefficiency, PAÉLO has revolutionized the process by introducing a digital form solution.

Understanding Forms         

Traditionally, forms are paper-based tools used across various sectors for data collection, functioning primarily as questionnaires. They serve multiple purposes, including legal information gathering about individuals. Known also as “administrative forms,” they are essential in official requests within both governmental and private sectors. In corporate settings, these forms streamline processes in various departments, aiding in tasks like finance applications or human resources information gathering.

Previously, form creation involved software that automated the process, eliminating the need for manual entry of details like dots or rectangles for response fields. Once created, these forms were printed and distributed. However, the complexity of some software led to the development of user-friendly online forms accessible to a broader audience.

• The Era of Online Forms

The digital counterpart of paper forms, online forms, serve the same purpose of collecting data or personal information. In today’s digital age, these forms are accessible through platforms or websites, allowing creation and access anytime, anywhere. This convenience saves significant time for respondents and eliminates the challenges of deciphering poor handwriting.

Beyond time efficiency, online forms are a step towards reducing paper overuse in administrative tasks. They contribute to environmental conservation by reducing forest depletion and save considerable travel time for surveyors, especially in urban settings. PAÉLO’s training management platform has recognized these advantages and integrated a feature for creating and distributing questionnaires efficiently.

• Features of PAÉLO’s Integrated Form

PAÉLO’s platform caters to user needs by offering customizable forms. Effective online forms typically consist of closed questions to save time for recipients. PAÉLO’s platform includes a feature for adding closed questions in a drop-down menu format. While creating these lists can be challenging for some, the platform also supports multiple-choice questions (MCQs), simplifying the process and requiring minimal input from respondents.

MCQs clearly indicate the expected response type, aiding in the survey’s effectiveness. They prevent invalid responses by eliminating the need for a specific writing style. PAÉLO’s open-ended questions feature a blank rectangular field, accommodating all character types (letters, numbers, punctuation, etc.).

For data collection to be valid, it’s crucial that online forms can process dates and display various legal formats.

• Advantages of PAÉLO’s Integrated Form

PAÉLO enhances customer engagement by providing a comprehensive tutorial with its license, detailing the platform’s use, including form creation. To assist users further, PAÉLO offers full support for those unfamiliar with this feature. This customizable aspect of the platform allows exploration of its potential in various domains beyond corporate training.

PAÉLO’s “share” feature enables forms to be distributed to recipients with just a click, illustrating the digital era’s efficiency in employee management. This feature encourages adaptation to digital advancements while still accommodating traditional preferences, as users can print forms after creation or completion. Companies seeking to leverage PAÉLO’s integrated form benefits are encouraged to contact their experts or try a free 21-day trial to experience its full capabilities.
