Yes, the custom text works also. But a custom redirect is ridiculously easy for them to implement. Takes one line of code and 5 minutes. But, either one is fine.
It is just mind boggling that they don't allow this. How is this an enterprise feature? You can hook up the form to a database, you can hook it up to a workflow, but you can't have custom text on the submission or a custom redirect unless you are an enterprise user? Retool Forms with some basic features implemented, would make Retool grow like crazy, because it solves some really annoying problems with other form platforms (i.e. no proper database behind submissions, terrible workflows that don't integrate with the rest of your stack).
Also, for most applications, you just want to create a Form and send it someone. You don't want to create an entire App in Retool. But, this is impossible to do now, because the Form is just an Advertisement.
So we wanted to switch from tally.so forms to retool forms.
However, after filling out the form, people think they just sent their personal data to retool (which they mostly never heard about) Some even felt cheated!
We are wiling to switch to a Business plan but the enterprise plan is too expensive just to use Forms in an acceptable way! A reference to retool is totally ok, but a fullpage Ad after filling out the form, is really too much! Actually it makes Forms unusable in many cases.
Just found this on Friday, February 13, almost one year later.
You can‘t imagine, how much work it was to create a workflow via webhook to get those nasty tally.so forms. But unfortunately we have to stick to this until this really serious issue with that totally confusing retool redirection isn‘t fixed.
This is feedback we can relay to our product team. Would you mind sending examples or screenshots of some of these complaints in a DM to me? Thanks for flagging this.
