Biggest opportunity: “email marketing”, “mailing list” and “newsletter” 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 60.1K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Email & Marketing plugin keeps 0.9%, across 1,298 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Email & Marketing 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 1 release 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.

wp.org is where the directory puts the plugin for that search. On merit is where it would sit if results were ranked on rating, support and updates, without the install boost. The last column is how far the wp.org position moved, from our first reading in the last 90 days to the latest.
| Keyword | wp.org | On merit | wp.org move, 90 days |

The plugin works perfectly. It deserves 5-star rating. Thank you!

I received a few different errors while trying to set this plugin up. I eventually got it to work but now every time I try to edit the actual form, it gives me errors. Tried to contact support and couldn’t find an easy way to do this. When I FINALLY found the form to submit my issue, it kept giving me errors when trying to submit it. Finally, I figured out why it kept giving me errors but when I corrected it, the form was stuck in a spinning loop so it was never sent (or it leads me to believe it wasn’t sent). I would not recommend wasting time with this plugin unless the developer makes it much easier to contact him. I don’t mind going through issues and finding solutions to resolve them, but there needs to be an easy way to contact support.

Hi! If I understand correctly, the plug-in has stopped updating? Wordpress version: 4.9.8 Contact Form 7 version: 5.0.3 I use your plugin mailchimp and everything is ok. I’ll change the feedback if there are updates. Thank you.

I have tried to reach out to the developer several ways but have not heard back. The plugin does not work for me. I’m happy to update my review or even pay for premium support but have not had communication.

Great, it works perfectly. wonderful. It took me two days to make it work Because there are no instructions on-site assistance. then I Realized That the problem was because I did not put email subscribers code, That I had to enter the same code what I insert in CF7 form. It works. Thank you.

I like the plugin! I had to connect my client’s aweber to contact7 or any other forms. I tried several plugins and they just simply don’t work or bring a heavy load to the website. I added Contact form 7 Aweber, then in the contact form itself near additional settings you will see the new Aweber tag, you can connect your aweber account. Then save it and reload the page, then you will see the subscribers list, you can choose one you need. Then you need to save and reload again. You will see the matching fields. I added email and it works.

1. It doesn’t work 2. There’s a damn big ZERO plugin documentation 3. Debug messages can not be investigated 4. Support forum is dead 5. UI totally user-unfriendly These are the reasons why I REALLY don’t understand why this plugin is publically available in the plugin repo. Not mentioning (so let’s mention that too) the “Delivered by Mailchimp” stamp on the plugin’s CF7 tab, if nothing else, this certainly gave me some WTF moments.
