Form Drop-off Analytics: Find the Question That Kills Your Form
A hundred people started your form and forty finished. Every form tool tells you that much. None of them tell you the thing you can act on: which question made the other sixty leave — was it the phone number field, the budget question, or just the length?
How SiliForm solves it
Question-level drop-off chart
Because SiliForm auto-saves a draft on every advance, it knows exactly how far each abandoned session got. The drop-off chart shows where sessions ended, question by question — the cliff is usually obvious within the first fifty responses.
Individual in-progress sessions
Beyond the aggregate chart, you can open individual partial sessions and read the answers people gave before leaving. Half-finished responses are often the most honest feedback about your form you'll ever get.
Completion metrics in context
The analytics dashboard puts drop-off next to completion rate, per-question answer/skip rates, response trends, and device breakdown — so you can tell a broken question apart from a broken audience.
Drop-off and in-progress session views are Pro features. The rest of the analytics dashboard — completion rate, trends, per-question stats — is free.
See it on your own form
Publish any form — a template takes two minutes — and the analytics dashboard starts recording views, completions, and in-progress sessions immediately.

- What is form drop-off analytics?
- Drop-off analytics shows where respondents abandon a form — the specific question at which in-progress sessions stop — rather than just an overall completion percentage. It turns 'our form converts badly' into 'question 7 is the problem'.
- How does SiliForm know where someone dropped off?
- SiliForm auto-saves a draft each time a respondent advances to the next question. If they never submit, the draft records exactly how far they got and what they answered. Expired drafts are cleaned up automatically.
- Is drop-off analytics free?
- Drop-off and in-progress session analytics are part of the Pro plan ($20/month billed yearly). The free plan includes the rest of the analytics dashboard — views, completion rate, response trends, per-question stats, and device breakdown.
- What should I do about a high drop-off question?
- Usual fixes, in order: move it later in the form, make it optional, split it into two smaller questions, or explain why you're asking. Sensitive questions (phone, budget) placed too early are the most common cliff.
