Biggest opportunity: “contact”, “crm” and “database” aren't earning a slot. You list them, but you're not in the first 24 results for those searches. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so free the slot for a search you can win.

of downloads still active

At least 80 of 43.8K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Forms plugin keeps 1.3%, across 1,667 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.

    Hello,l Though we are just barely set up yet, and haven’t added our customer contacts and ecommerce account yet, we are entirely thrilled to have the vCita solution to a long list of management issues we were gearing up to confront. Fortunately, and voila!, vCita found us! Within seconds I had a free account and ease of contact with them to pursue any next decision I would need to make. Enough said to just try the software yourself as a customer with them while using their very software solution they offer. Their Back Office software as as service solution for us as a small advisory firm is a blessing and answer to our prayers. I expect and trust my next review will include revenue increases that are as exciting as I am now relieved of such a burden. Thank you vCita! Jane Hundley, M.A.Industrial Organizational Psychologist

    vCita is really ahead of the curve in the way they packaged it all together, offering online businesses all the tools they need to convert users visiting the site to leads/customers and then offering them great service to keep them happy and coming back.
