About eFormsFactory

For years, the use of paper-based forms has been an accepted method of collecting information. Today, desktop, web and mobile technologies can make gathering information a far more interactive and convenient experience for clients. So why would any organisation continue to use paper-based or Word forms, incurring additional costs, at a time when finding efficiencies in the business is crucially important?

eFormsFactory, a business solution from Tidalfire, offers the ability to convert existing paper or Word forms into useful online data gathering tools.

Using eForms to capture information such as: event registrations, job applications, booking enquiries and performance reviews can be done with ease.

The eFormsFactory solution utilises secure industry-standard technologies and
provides advantages over paper forms which include:

• Reduced paper usage
• Fasterdistribution and return of data
• Increased accuracy of returned information

Tidalfire, an Adobe Training and Solutions Partner, has extensive experience in creating intelligent PDF and web-based eForms that offer many advantages over paper and proprietary formats.
