of downloads still active
At least 20K of 3.1M lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Forms plugin keeps 1.3%, across 1,671 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 37 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
- Your five tags are all earning their place. Each gets you onto page 1 of its own search, so none is worth giving up. “estimation”, “calculator form” and “builder” (#6, #8 and #23 untagged) would be the next worth testing if a slot frees up.

I’ve been using your plugins for over two years now especially the Cost Calculator as part of my parking reservation and international package delivery businesses, and I really appreciate the technology and simplicity you’ve built into these tools. I encourage you to take it a step further and create, for example, an accommodation booking tool such as one that allows users to book a hotel for those who want to build a site similar to Airbnb or Booking.com. This would help many people grow their businesses. In any case, I really appreciate your work and the responsiveness of your customer service team, which is always ready to help and responds very quickly.
