If you\u2019ve ever filled out a website form, you\u2019ve probably run into a CAPTCHA. That little test to prove you\u2019re human and not a spam bot can be as simple as typing a distorted code or answering a question. UltimateWB, in all its versions, gives you both options for your forms – but which one works best?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Classic CAPTCHA<\/strong>: Copying the Code<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The traditional CAPTCHA shows a string of letters and numbers in a distorted image, and users have to type it into a box to submit the form. It\u2019s been the first go-to spam control for forms, and unfortunately you might find some automatic spam bots can outsmart them and get through.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another downside? It can be frustrating. Some codes are hard to read, accessibility can be an issue for users with vision impairments, and it slows down form submissions. Plus, distorted text just might not look very modern on your sleek website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Question & Answer Pairs: The Better Choice<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

UltimateWB also offers a question & answer pairs CAPTCHA, and this one is our go-to when spam is getting through with the code CAPTCHA. Instead of copying a code, your users simply answer a simple question, like \u201cWhat color is the blue sky?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here\u2019s why it\u2019s better:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
