What do I need?!

    Hi all, I'm looking for the most easiest/appropriate method for creating a simple custom order page that can be added to our company website.

    Most of our customers have only a handful of items that they repeat order from us, and so (I'd hope) it wouldn't be too much work with the right software to put something simple together for a selection of customers that they'd have their own page to visit when placing an order.

    I might like to include and image of an item, and below add a field to enter a quantity. There would be various products in each page to suit each particular customer, and possibly variables per items such as a colour or a size.

    So when "send" is clicked we'll just get a summary of the order in a way that makes it easy to digest on our end. Different customers can ramble a bit in their orders, and some can be unclear in what they need also, so this would hopefully be a time saver.

    It wouldn't need to be secure, or it won't need to take payment.

    Thanks in advance

    Does your website run on a CMS like WordPress?
    If it did then I would recommend a form plugin like Ninja Forms (free) or Gravity Forms (not free; I've never used it but it is highly recommended) to create a form that would be sent to you by email (in a layout specified by you).

    Thanks daymobrew, I think it is CMS, but if it doesn't I might consider a remote site that only the customer would have the link to. Most of the forms I was finding didn't really show examples of using images alongside the fields.

    Post a link to the site and I'm sure we'd quickly figure out whether it is.

    Would you like to send the URL of the site so that we could take a look? Thanks!
