Free unlimited forms. Free unlimited responses. Tally saves a dental practice exactly $0 compared to Google Forms — and costs exactly the same in lost conversions. Both collect data. Neither acts on it. A $6,000 implant lead submitted through Tally receives the same email notification with the same 2-hour response delay with the same result: patient books elsewhere. Tally saved $0 on tools and lost $6,000 on conversion. The most expensive form is the free one that does not convert.
TL;DR
Tally is free. Lost leads are expensive. The Webevo platform converts leads through instant AI response, CRM routing, and voice AI — the conversion value exceeds any tool cost.
The False Economy of Free
Saving $29/month on forms while losing $6,000 in unconverted leads is not economy — it is false economy. Free tools optimize the wrong variable: cost reduction instead of revenue generation. Compare: Google Forms, Fillout, Paperform, Typeform.

| Reputation | ❌ | ✅ Review AI |
| ROI | Negative (lost leads) | Positive (converted leads) |
Forms Without Follow-Up Are Data Graveyards: Form builders collect submissions. But 78% of leads go to the business that responds first. If your form submission sits in an inbox for 4 hours before someone reads it, the lead has already called a competitor. AI-powered CRM processes form submissions instantly — triggering automated follow-up within seconds, not hours.
Free cost + lost conversions = negative ROI. Invest where growth happens.
When Tally Makes Sense
Tally excels for startups testing landing pages, non-profits collecting volunteer sign-ups, and teams gathering internal feedback. When the cost of a missed response is low, Tally's free tier provides genuine value with a beautiful, minimal interface.
For MedSpas, law firms, and home services where each lead represents significant revenue — invest in conversion, not collection. The Webevo platform converts what free tools only collect.
