Biggest opportunity: Swap “contact form” and “form builder” for “contact form storage” and “conversational form”. “contact form” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #16. “contact form storage” sits at #4 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “form builder” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #12. “conversational form” sits at #5 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

How it's measured →2.0%
of downloads still active
At least 10K of 488.5K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Forms plugin keeps 1.2%, across 1,668 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Forms plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
This plugin shipped 33 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

What to do about it
- Swap “contact form” and “form builder” for “contact form storage” and “conversational form”. “contact form” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #16. “contact form storage” sits at #4 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “form builder” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #12. “conversational form” sits at #5 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.
- One page off on “contact form”. #16 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.
- One page off on “form builder”. #12 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

I used this extensively on several sites, the latest update had a few issues but I believe they are in the process of resolving them. This topic was modified 4 days, 4 hours ago by 4threv.

As a new user, I recently needed support with a form. It turns that it was down to my inexperience, but the agent was very patient and sorted things out. Turning to the product, I think I have used most of the major WordPress form plugins and Bit Form has all of the advanced features I look for e.g. multi step, conditional fields etc. The problem Bit Form solves is that unlike nearly all form plugins it comes with the ability to view, and importantly edit, the data after submission. With most plugins this a missing feature, or at best an expensive add-on. While this is not important for a simple contact form, it is for my applications, which are typically more complicated interactions with clients, such as assessments that require feedback. Bit Form has a neat implementation of this feature, and it works for any authorised role, not just for the submitter. As a result, Bit Form looks like becoming my goto form plugin and I look forward to new features as they are added.

Bit Forms is an excellent form builder that is easy to use, very flexible and lightweight. It has all the features I need, works smoothly, and saves a lot of time. The interface is clean, and the overall experience is great. Highly recommended!

Over the years, we’ve used various form plugins (around 30). Bit Form not only impressed us positively but turned out to be a true game-changer—it’s the #1 plugin in its category. We’ve never seen such a wealth of settings in a free plugin (e.g., phone number fields with pre-filled country codes), but above all, such high-quality code and minimal memory usage: just 150.61 KiB. That’s an outstanding result!

Great form builder and excellent support! The tool is intuitive and powerful, and the support team is incredibly responsive and helpful whenever I need assistance. Highly recommended.

I previously used Fluent Forms as my go to form creator but was left with a bad taste in my mouth after learning that they charge an extra $299 for a signature add-on. That is crazy! I found BitForms and haven’t looked back since. I can accomplish all I need and more using this highly functional and wonderfully executed plugin. If you are looking for a form builder or are thinking of making a change from your current one, you should definitely check-out Bit Form. You won’t be disappointed.
