All Included with Excellent Support
I’m really impressed with Fluent Forms! The customer support is excellent and responsive. So if you run into any issues, they will help you. Additionally you really get a lot of bang for your buck with this plugin on the free version, including saving form entries (unlike WP Forms). I upgraded to Pro with the holiday discount, and I am certain this will the form plugin we use on on all our sites moving forward.
Such a poorly constructed plugin (hacks)
Just like most crappy plugins made by lazy developers, this one has all kinds of options then works in a super buggy manner. If you have two of the same forms on a page, they don’t worry correctly and interact with one another instead of having unique instance IDs. It’s such a basic functionality and a sign of horribly poor foresight.They actually promote a newsletter form on their website using their forms. But there’s no way to unsubscribe, no mechanism for actually maintaining a list or having interactions with the list.If you’re going to put out a plugin, don’t shove 300 half assed features into it done poorly. Make every feature robust with forward thinking.
Good stuff
A bit of a steep learning curve (for me anyway) but overall a very complete system. Tech support a bit slow at 1-2 days, but very helpful in getting problems and special requests done.

Leaving FF after 3 years.
Warning to Non-Profit Organizations: WPManageNinja markets a “non-profit discount” on their website, claiming they want to “work with non-profits” and “contribute to your cause.” What they don’t tell you: this discount only applies to your first year. After that, you’re charged full price with no warning. What Happened: We were granted a 50% non-profit discount three years ago Multiple renewals were charged at the discounted rate Latest renewal: dashboard displayed $30.02 due, but charged $79.00 to our card Support response: “Discount is first-time only” (never disclosed anywhere) Their own website still markets non-profit support with NO mention of “first year only” This is a Classic Bait-and-Switch: They hook non-profits with a discount, let you integrate their software into your workflows, then force you to either pay full price or rebuild everything from scratch. This is not how legitimate companies support non-profits. Microsoft, Google, Adobe, and dozens of other companies we work with provide ongoing, permanent non-profit discounts because they understand mission-driven organizations operate on limited budgets year after year. Billing Issues: Their dashboard shows one amount, then charges another. When questioned, they defend it with circular logic about “renewal pricing” that contradicts their own transaction history. Bottom Line: For the price of a full license ($79/year), you can find better form builders with transparent pricing. If you’re a non-profit, don’t fall for the discount trap. Look elsewhere for partners who actually understand and support mission-driven work. Support Quality: Robotic responses, no accountability, no transparency. Alternative Recommended: Literally any other form builder with honest pricing.
