CloudForm Core Features

CloudForms support the following features. Each feature can be turned on or off on an individual form basis.

  • Automatically have the client details added to StudioCloud as a new client, prospective client, or lead or, if the client already exists, have the details automatically updated.
  • Require that a client books a session/appointment/event from the form using one of the many booking options available.
  • Require that a client select a package and have StudioCloud automatically create an invoice for that client with the item they ordered already in that invoice.
