Estimated value

What this plugin might earn a year, and what it might sell for. Modeled from public signals; we don't see anyone's books.

medium confidence

Est. annual revenue

≈$84 range $20–$360

Est. acquisition value

≈$280 range $50–$1.6K

A small install base leaves thin data to model from. The range spans more than 10x because wp.org publishes install counts as broad bands, and conversion and price compound on top. Read the midpoint as an order of magnitude, not a valuation.

How we estimate this

Assumptions

  • Free → paid conversion. 0.5%–2% of active installs pay for the pro tier. Typical for freemium WordPress plugins; the real rate varies a lot by product.
  • Annual price per customer. $49–$199 a year, typical for Forms plugins rather than this plugin's own pricing.
  • Acquisition multiple. 2.5x–4.5x annual revenue, the going range for small WordPress-plugin businesses, stretched a little because downloads are growing.
  • Install base. 80–90 active installs, from our install estimate (wp.org only publishes the floor).

Revenue is installs × conversion × price; value is revenue × a typical acquisition multiple. Every factor is an assumption band, so the output is a wide range on purpose. If you're buying or selling, treat this as a starting point for due diligence.

    After working with this plugin and after finishing the page, I just wondered where in the world i missed this wonderful plugin all these years!!! Such a wonderful plugin. Maybe the outlook of the working dashboard could be seen robust. But the outcome is awesome. I have tried dozens of plugin for the forms, and found everything lacked or hitched somewhere somehow. But this one… Believe me. So many options and so many details… And most of all (almost 90%) absolutely free. Tons of thanks to all the “Contributors & Developers”. God bless you guys.

    keine Nachbearbeitung, keine ordentliche Auswertung, keine Abfrage auf andere Wege machbar. Also nur als Kontaktformular oder andere Einmal-Formulare nutzbar.

    Great plugin. Had an issue with customer email after updating and support was very quick to release a new/fixed update. Huge amount of features in the free version. If my customers start asking for similar functionality I will upgrade to pro.

    This plugin doesn’t work unless you’re using a template. It allows you to open any of the templates and you can even make some changes, but when you save it and return to it, your new form will not open. The developer of this plugin is not at all helpful… initially they told me that the problem could be due to incompatibility with my other plugins or theme, when the documentation for Zigaform (which I read before purchasing) CLEARLY states that there will not be any issues with incompatibility. After pointing that out, the developer then requested ALL of my website and FTP login credentials in order to poke around and TRY to diagnose the problem. Being unwilling to do that because it would compromise the security of my website, I asked about other troubleshooting options and was told there were none. When I asked for a refund, they stopped responding to me. My suggestion to anyone considering this plugin… DON’T. Keep your money and find something better.

    Hi I’m having issues figuring out how exactly to set up the confirmation email to customers. Your site is bare so there is no information there and I don’t want to leave a 1 star until I’ve reached out to you. It says: Customer email Recipient mail (Choose field to receive notification (field needs to have email validation)) And there is nothing to select. I added a place that says “email” in my form so I’m not sure where to go from here, and I’d like to get this working asap. Thank you.

    Used this form on 2 websites I have built. If I had an issue, they resolved it in a timely manner.

    I have the commercial version of Zigaform plugin. There were some slight coding issues which I needed help with and Raimundo the developer went out of his way to sort it. This is by far the best WordPress Form plugin available – I am a Digital Marketing Strategist ..
