Forms are a great way to have your site's viewers get in touch with you in an easy and manageable way. Form submissions are stored and organized in ShoutCMS and notifications are sent via email to the address of your choice.
A basic form does not add the submitter into your Contact database, however you can obtain the information you require from the user.
