Biggest opportunity: “contact form”, “forms” and “gravity form” 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 300 of 8.9K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Forms plugin keeps 1.2%, across 1,669 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.

    I was willing to put up with “adopted” sites that used Gravity for a little while, but I got too annoyed with them pulling the rug out from a local non-profit, removing the only PayPal add-on that was available to them without going to the highest tier plan. I have to have their top tier anyway, so I upgraded them, but the setup was absurd and I finally decided I’d rather just re-do ALL of their forms in Formidable than have to deal with Gravity’s b.s. one more time. I was delighted to find this plugin, and it did at least convert some of the stuff in the forms. It’s free and it saved me some time, so therefore I love it! Because I know and trust Formidable/Strategy11, I didn’t hesitate to use a plugin that was “abandoned”, but I’d imagine that’d be concerning to most people. I hope you guys do an update soon so it’s not showing up in Wordfence as a security issue.

    I was using Gravity forms for a while based on my sister’s recommendation. She’s a developer and loves Gravity. But I’m definitely not a developer… so I was having to get her to help me all the time. Long story short, I found Formidable Forms and it solved all my problems. Except that I had all this data still inside Gravity forms… when I saw this importer plugin I couldn’t believe my luck.
