FormTool Filler

FormTool Filler is a data management system that allows you to quickly fill out forms right from your own PC, and is a real timesaver if you need to fill out forms on a regular basis. FormTool Filler maintains a database of information about the user and automatically fills in information that has been provided on previous forms, reducing errors and saving you time and money.

Price - $29.95

Forms Included

When you purchase FormTool, you get over 800 included forms that have already been created and are ready for your use in your own company.

These forms are organized into the following form tool kits:

Accounting Form Pack
Construction Form Pack
Human Resources I Form Pack
Human Resources II Form Pack
Miscellaneous Form Pack
Personal Organizer Form Pack
Production Management Form Pack
Real Estate Form Pack
Sales Form Pack

General Business Forms

Target Customers

FormTool 6 is targeted for any organization that needs to develop and distribute professional forms. This includes just about all types of organizations, and while some smaller, specifically focused organizations may use few forms, larger firms with more varied functions will most definitely appreciate the powerful features in FormTool 6, and especially the many forms that have already been created and are ready for customization. In case these over 800 existing forms do not meet your needs, FormTool 6 provides you with the tools you need to create any type of unique form you need. The results will be high quality, professional forms any organization will be comfortable using with their customers or the public. While some drawing programs now on the market do allow you to create forms, FormTool 6 is specifically designed to be used for this special purpose, and thus will save you many hours of time when creating any type of form you need.

Recommendation

I highly recommend FormTool 6 for any organization needing help with creating and using professional forms for all their internal and external business operations.
