• I don’t want everyone to be able to access the contact form database I just want couple of users to have certain permission to change a specific database. Is there a way to do that?

    But there isn’t a simply way to limit editing of one form data to specific individuals. But you can do it as follows. The for-purchase CFDB Editor adds an edit capability to tables of your results. To limit who can edit what, you would have to put a [cfdb-datatable] short code on a page that references one form and only give access to that page for certain individuals who you want to edit that form’s results. For another form, create another page with another shortcode on that. Then you would change a security setting to hide the CFDB administration page to all those people, otherwise any of they could edit on that table.

    you could use a different approach which is to map your CF7 form submissions to a post, and allow these users acccess to the dashboard for post modification. There are some good post mapping solutions which play nice with CF7.

    So purchasing the Contact Form 7 DB will do the job, I can limit certain users from accessing specific Datebases? I’m not looking to display it in front end, more likely backend.

    With the purchase you can create specific private pages for certain users to see certain forms. But it isn’t like you want where a user goes to the admin page and only sees certain forms. I doesn’t nicely support this example.
