The short version

  • Only ToolJet has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Gravity Forms basic license covers only 1 site and renews at $59/year after a discounted $44 first year; ToolJet free and Pro tiers cap end users at 50, which may be too low for apps needing broad internal distribution.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Gravity Forms

  • Basic license covers only 1 site and renews at $59/year after a discounted $44 first year
  • Pro license is capped at 3 sites; using it on more requires the Elite tier at $259/year renewal
  • Marketing integrations like HubSpot and Mailchimp are Basic-tier only, while payment and workflow add-ons (Stripe, Zapier, Trello) require Pro or above

ToolJet

  • Free and Pro tiers cap end users at 50, which may be too low for apps needing broad internal distribution.
  • Enterprise pricing starts at a steep $3,000/month, a large jump from the $199/month Team plan.
  • AI credits reset monthly and do not roll over, penalizing uneven month-to-month usage.
  • Smaller integration and community ecosystem than more established players like Retool.
