Reviews
what people actually sayGSheetConnector for CF7 is a functional and well-supported plugin for syncing Contact Form 7 submissions to Google Sheets, but it carries a meaningful reliability risk in its free version — silent data loss due to Google API rate limits and occasional unexplained disconnections make it unsuitable for mission-critical use without a paid upgrade.
What people like

- +Plugin works as intended for connecting CF7 to Google Sheets×4
- +Team is receptive to feature requests and adds compatibility with other plugins quickly
Common complaints
- −Google API rate limit errors silently drop form submissions from the sheet with no warning, making the free version unreliable for important data
- −Plugin can unexpectedly disconnect from Google, causing lost form responses with no clear reason
- −Key fixes for known issues (e.g. API rate limits) are locked behind the paid version
- −Initial setup is somewhat difficult on the free version
