You can save the form data using the controller :

namespace VendorName\ModuleName\Controller\Customer;
use Magento\Framework\App\Action\Context;
use Magento\Framework\View\Result\PageFactory;
class Save extends \Magento\Framework\App\Action\Action
{
 protected $resultPageFactory;
 protected $session;
 public function __construct(
 \Magento\Framework\App\Action\Context $context,
 PageFactory $resultPageFactory
 )
 {
 parent::__construct($context);
 $this->resultPageFactory = $resultPageFactory;
 }
 public function execute()
 {
 $resultRedirect = $this->resultRedirectFactory->create();
 //$resultPage = $this->resultPageFactory->create();
 //$resultPage->getConfig()->getTitle()->set(__('Helpdesk'));
 //return $resultPage;
 $data = $this->getRequest()->getPostValue();
 $model = $this->_objectManager->create('VendorName\ModuleName\Model\ModelName');
 $model->setData($data);
 try {
 $model->save();
 $this->messageManager->addSuccess(__('The Data has been saved.'));
 return $resultRedirect->setPath('*/*/');
 } catch (\Magento\Framework\Exception\LocalizedException $e) {
 $this->messageManager->addError($e->getMessage());
 } catch (\RuntimeException $e) {
 $this->messageManager->addError($e->getMessage());
 } catch (\Exception $e) {
 $this->messageManager->addException($e, __('Something went wrong while saving the Data.'));
 }
 }
}
