Umbraco Contour
Contour makes creating contact forms, entry forms and questionnaires just as easy as using Word. You won’t need to write a single line of code. Instead, you can create, edit and administer your form via a user interface that is a fully integrated part of Umbraco.

Get your questions answered
Contour
deals with large questionnaires and other forms in steps so it is
more manageable and therefore easier for your visitors to answer
questions. They will only have to handle a couple of questions, on
the screen, at a time. This increases the likelihood of the
questionnaire being completed. This method therefore also makes
Contour suitable for gathering large amounts of information.

Make your forms easily accessible
Contour follows W3C's accessibility guidelines
(WCAG). The program ensures that your forms are easily
accessible and that they function in different browsers, completely
automatically. In this way, you can live up to the rising demands
for accessibility set out by the authorities and various
organisations.
Integration with other databases and
systems
Contour makes it easy to
save your form entries on other databases such as SQL
Server and Access. The program also easily integrates your data
into systems such as Microsoft CRM or Salesforce via
web services. For example, it only takes a few clicks to drag a
table from another database and take it online.

Further develop your forms
Contour should
be able to provide everything you need. However, if you require
special field types or need your form entries to be saved in a
special format, Contour comes with an open and fully documented
API. This will allow your developers to custom-make
Contour according to your needs. Several code examples and videos
are included to assist you.
Trust our security
Contour is completely
integrated in Umbraco's security system. You can therefore decide
exactly which users may insert, edit and export data.

Export your data with one click
Contour's export functions make it easy for you to
continue work on the gathered data. With just one click, you can
for example see how many people have completed your form; you can
sort and group your data or carry on working in other programs like
Excel or Numbers.

A flexible work routine
Contour has an easy
workflow, which gives you complete control over what happens when a
form is shown, filled out and sent etc. In this way, you can send
emails, save data in databases, enter goals from Google Analytics
and much more. All this in just a few clicks.
Manage your data in many languages
Contour
is able to manage forms in many languages just as effectively as
Umbraco does on multi-language sites. You can also use Umbraco's
integrated dictionary in all the fields and value ranges, which
makes the procedure easier and familiar.

Get full XSLT integration
Contour's
XSLT Extensions allow you to show the form's data on
the Internet. The program is not limited to questionnaires and
contact forms alone. Contour can also be used for advanced web 2.0
functions and comments and ratings etc. The program automatically
saves information regarding the page and which member filled out
the form.
This is how you make a comment function
Effective protection against
SPAM
Contour protects your data
against spam, which unfortunately often attacks online-forms. For
example, the program contains Captcha field types that cannot be
detected by the SPAM robots. It is also easy to
implement anti SPAM systems such as Akismet or Mollom
in Contour, which ensure that your visitors won't be bugged by
Captcha fields.
