Update activity
How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

Really impressed with what GriffinForms offers for a free plugin. The drag-and-drop builder is clean and intuitive – I had a multi-step registration form with conditional logic up and running quickly without touching any code. The user registration workflow is genuinely well thought out, with options for immediate account creation, pending approval, or payment-gated signup. Partial submission saving is a great touch so users don’t lose progress. No upsell walls, no bloat. Exactly what a form builder should be. Highly recommend for anyone who needs more than a basic contact form.

GriffinForms is a delightfully lightweight yet surprisingly capable form builder. It feels refreshingly intuitive — you can spin up clean, professional forms in minutes without wrestling with cluttered menus or bloated settings. The interface is smooth, the customization options are thoughtful, and everything just works the way you hope it will. A lovely choice for anyone who wants simple, elegant form creation without the fuss.

I have used 3 different form plugins within last year, and always ran into some sort of issue. I am not technically very sound, and wanted something that doesn’t require all the fuzz and yet offer all the features. And boy, did GriffinForms surprised me or what. I chose it on a whim really, not expecting much. But more I use it, more I believe this might be a next big thing in forms plugin. The developers have launched some truly great updates as well and I can see how far they have come within a short space of few months. Really happy to be one early adopter- keep up the good work guys!

Efficient and free plugin that is useful for site owners and developers. The interface is clean and easy to navigate, even for non-tech users. It handles the tasks like contact forms or signups without issues. Great for small sites that need something that works without the bloat. Setup is quick and it runs smooth.
