Biggest opportunity: “contact form”, “custom form” and “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 80 of 21.6K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Forms plugin keeps 1.3%, across 1,671 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.

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 |

Update activity

Estimated active installs
The public count shows “80+”. Our estimate pins where the real number sits.
Crossed into this band 3 months ago and a band this size takes about a year or more to cross, so the real count is still just over 80.

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.

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 ..
