Biggest opportunity: Add “group chat” to your wp.org tags. You rank #24 for it without listing it, close enough for a declared tag to move you up. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so with 2 listed it's a slot worth spending.

How it's measured →4.8%
of downloads still active
At least 2K of 41.9K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Chat & Support plugin keeps 0.8%, across 630 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Chat & Support 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 2 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.

All reviews on wp.org ↗- ★★★★★ Vivek Narayanankutty Nair4.2y ago
Good concept and giving professional impression. Instead of adding simple direct chat button where the company gets unuseful contacts, this concept of form will benefits the company.
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ Gautham Shankar4.3y ago
Finally found a neat plugin. Rather than just taking user to the whatsapp directly, it asks a set of questions like a form. And then we get those answers in our Whatsapp. Pretty helpful when we chat with our customers. Only thing is, I have to access their dashboard to make all the changes. The plugin only has a copy-paste box. It does the job.

Tried a number of plugins to add Whatsapp to my WordPress website. This is by far the best one I found. I use their paid plan now. Using their routing method, I am can distribute the responses among my 7 member team. It’s awesome.

Form to chat plugin integrates with WhatsApp nicely. Good plugin. Good customer service.
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ Saleeh4.4y ago
I was intially using a WhatsApp widget to send visitors from my WordPress website to WhatsApp. That was working well. But after I tried this plugin, I am having better conversations. This widget has a full form with the necessary questions for my visitor. These are usually the same repeating questions I ask my customer in WhatsApp. I strongly recommend this to those who use WhatsApp to talk to customers.

Very happy with the plugin. I get a lot of enquiries on WhatsApp. One issue I was struggling with was asking the same questions again and again. The use of Form, helped me save time since I get the answers from the customer before I start the conversation. I haven’t seen another tool like this one.

Works as promised. No downtime. It’s easy to create the form. Just copy paste to add to WordPress. Giving 1 star less, since some messages don’t reach WhatsApp. I realized that’s because customer has a choice to not send the data at the last step. Anyway, it does the work for us.

I have been using WhatsForm for some time. Just tried it on WordPress and works well here too. I just wanted my form data to reach my WhatsApp number. Their free plan is sufficient for that. There is one feature called agent routing that I wanted to try. But that’s in their paid plans only. I hope they add this to the free plan. Also, I recommend adding their WhatsForm URL to your greeting message in the WhatsApp business app. That is also super helpful.
