We’ve been using Gravity Forms with Download Monitor for months and couldn’t be happier. Our sales team set up forms to gate access to our white papers, paired with the Email Notification extension — giving them a slick lead follow-up system that triggers 2-3 hours after download.

Using Download Monitor’s Mailchimp extension, I built a simple membership site by connecting Stripe, Zapier, and Mailchimp — budget-friendly, easy to set up, and works beautifully. Paying members get gated file access, all synced through Mailchimp.
