Form builder is new way of adding and supports drag and drop interface with real-time visibility, it's easier for non-technical users

Form layout is simple and old way of adding fields on form.

Hi @swethasnow2 ,

 

Form Layout is the simple style editor where you can add, remove, or reorder fields of form

Form Design and Form Builder is drag-and-drop where you can visually arrange fields, create sections, and build multi-column layouts.

As from prompt you can see ServiceNow is recommending Form Builder now a days
