I'm not great with forms, and the Schengen one was worse than any I've seen. The breakdown of what to attach for employment proof was genuinely useful. I was in and out of the VFS centre in under 20 minutes because my paperwork was tidy. Everything is laid out so even my mum could follow it, and she's 68. Much cheaper than a travel agent and probably more accurate. One small note: the mobile version could be a touch smoother.
