Microsoft ended support for SharePoint Server 2016 and 2019 on July 14, 2026. Virto Form Designer On-Premises runs on Subscription Edition: the current build is version 1.4.1. While your updates and support are active, moving your licence costs 25% of the full licence price; once they have ended, it takes a new licence. Tell us about your farm and we will plan the move with you. ## Switching from InfoPath On SharePoint Server, InfoPath is ending in two steps. On SharePoint Server 2016 and 2019, extended support for InfoPath Forms Services ended after July 14, 2026, the same date the InfoPath 2013 client and the two servers reached their own extended-support end: forms keep loading, but Microsoft no longer ships fixes. On Subscription Edition Microsoft goes further. The September 2026 update turned InfoPath Forms Services off by default, and the update of July 13, 2027 removes it, so forms that still depend on it stop working. For new form design, Microsoft now names Power Apps as its recommended solution for SharePoint list forms. Virto Form Designer On-Premises is a perpetual-license, on-premises alternative for that same job, and it does not depend on InfoPath Forms Services. It's built for: - New, Edit, and Display forms of a SharePoint list that InfoPath used to customize, rebuilt so they keep working and stay updatable on SharePoint Server 2013, 2016, 2019, or Subscription Edition, including after the July 2027 update removes InfoPath from Subscription Edition - Forms that need code-level control — rich text, HTML, CSS, or JavaScript editors — beyond a no-code layout builder - Forms that change by content type within the same list, the way InfoPath let you branch a form’s layout - Desktop-optimized data-entry forms licensed once per server, rather than per subscription - Rebuilding InfoPath forms version by version as a farm moves from SharePoint 2013 toward 2016, 2019, or Subscription Edition, using version-matched installers Need SharePoint Online or Microsoft 365 instead? See [Virto Forms Designer App](https://www.virtosoftware.com/microsoft-365/virto-forms-designer-app/): InfoPath Forms Services was removed from SharePoint Online after July 14, 2026.

In my opinion - the best form designer. Yusuf Persson (5/5) The form designer web part is an amazing tool that lets you create forms with elements like text fields, checkboxes, dropdown menus, and even complex business logic.

On Subscription Edition, only for now: the September 2026 update turned InfoPath Forms Services off by default, an administrator can turn it back on, and the July 13, 2027 update removes it. After that update, or any later one, forms that depend on it stop working. **Can Virto Form Designer On-Premises replace InfoPath for on-prem SharePoint forms?** For the list-form use case, yes: it rebuilds a list's New, Edit, and Display forms with a drag-and-drop and code-level HTML, CSS, and JavaScript designer, licensed perpetually per SharePoint Server version — 2013, 2016, 2019, and Subscription Edition — instead of InfoPath's own designer. **What does Microsoft recommend instead of InfoPath for SharePoint forms?** Microsoft's current guidance names Power Apps as its recommended solution for creating and delivering custom forms for SharePoint lists, invoked from a list's Customize button. Support for InfoPath Forms Services followed the SharePoint Server 2016 support lifecycle and ended on July 14, 2026, and Subscription Edition removes the service with the July 13, 2027 update. ## Related products Explore how our set of productivity tools can transform your task management - [Virto Kanban Board On-Premises](https://www.virtosoftware.com/sharepoint/kanban-board-web-part/): Streamline task management: Visualize projects with color-coded boards for efficient workflow tracking. - [Virto Calendar On-Premises](https://www.virtosoftware.com/sharepoint/sp-calendar-web-part/): Merge events from multiple sources like Exchange, Google, and SQL into unified calendar view. - [Virto Cross-Site Lookup](https://www.virtosoftware.com/sharepoint/cross-site-cascaded-lookup-feature-web-part/): Streamline data management with dynamic column dependencies and enhanced search and filtering. ✕ ## Try Virto Form Designer On-Premises Free Download and extract the zip file to a folder on your SharePoint server.
