Wordpress Forms, Contact Form
I am asking for recommendations for which Wordpress plugins you would recommend for collecting information from website users. This is for creating a form to get volunteers name, address, email address, and what type of volunteering they would be willing to do. Some may also chose to donate instead of doing something. I am looking for something that is easy to learn. I have tried contact forms7, visual forms pro, formidable forms, gravity forms, and grunion and contact form by webdorado (which looks the most promising). Most of these have free versions which don't have all the options I need. So before I spend too much time learning a particular one I wanted to get the experts views on what they recommend I invest my time and money into. Thanks.

For something as mission-critical to a site as forms, go with the premium version if at all possible.

Yes will do thanks. This is for a person running for office and so the money is coming out of my back pocket so just want to be sure it will work

Considering this is a someone running for office, they might work a deal with you in exchange for "Powered by Formidable Pro" and a link on the form pages. Never hurts to ask...

I installed formidable and it is really easy to use however I do not see a place where I can see who has filled on the contact form from the dashboard or under the formidable menu options--help please? This is a requirement because the person who will actually use this wants to be able to go there to see who has signed up and then download the selected entries into a csv or xls file. What am I missing?

Gave it a quick look over--installed it, look at the 4 default forms--yes there are tons of options, but it seems to be geared towards contacts for sales, to call; I was looking more for something that I can use to get name, address, phone number, email address, add checkboxes to select how they would like to volunteer and/or allow them to donate to a cause or political campaign.
The free version of formidable doesn't do storage. Only the pro version.

Thanks.
