I really appreciate the simplicity of the layout and the ability to schedule posts into the future. I also see that they are adding features that make the app more effective for my audience.

I do wish there were more types of posting features, a wider array of payment options / management tools, and more emphasis on mobile / Android compatibility.

Mighty Networks hands down solved my problem or needing a community based platform I could have both a membership and courses without clutter and ads. My members are active and engaged and the Mighty Team have created a fantastic, step by step set up that I was able to get up and running in no time
Pros
This was easy to set up and the support I receive is timely.
Cons
I would like to see better image management and the ability embed from more sources but overall there has been nothing that we couldn't figure out an alternate method for.

Thanks Ron! We're so glad you found the setup process easy and straightforward so that you could get up and running quickly, and create the "community-centered" learning experience you want to offer. We plan to update the image management features in the future to make this an even better experience for you and your members.
Side stepping FB & L-I filters (owning contacts) and having direct access to members is great!
Pros
It is mostly intuitive and easy to use, navigate, get to know.
Cons
Limited options for 3rd party payment platforms.

Thanks for the specific feedback Scott!
I am using Mighty Networks to host an online software and hardware training community for my company's products. I provide both general and custom assistance with "how do I" and "what is" software questions that are not in tech support's wheelhouse and I offer tips and techniques based on user questions and needs. Answers fellow users provide to help each other are vetted for accuracy and modified if needed. We are gradually weaning people away from clogging up tech support phone lines with issues based on operator ignorance. Thus far only 2% of our users are taking advantage of this service, so there's a lot of growth to come.
Pros
Mobility: Mighty Networks ability to enable me to create a community website with paid options that could be easily accessed on a computer, tablet or phone, without me having to have extensive staff or knowledge to produce different versions of content. 2. Reliability: The software doesn't fail.
Cons
The biggest con for me is the lack of customer/user management features.

Its been great for a self starter like me, who likes to create my own content, way of working , its given us a great start in creating our organisation in a way that's not the normal.
Pros
It has been the right flexible tool for us to begin to build our network and work out how we can work best to create our movement
Cons
Its not really a con, but to grow we need access to data, ideally need courses to be chargeable in uk pounds rather than dollars.

The option of delivering courses in various formats along with posting content and other events makes MN the perfect platform for reaching our goal.
Pros
It offers a wide range of options and a terrific support team of MN employees and other users. The design is values-driven and the MN team are constantly enhancing it for ease of use and functionality.
Cons
The wide ranging options made start-up a bit complicated, but that was handled well by the support team, the Community Design course and the generous comments of other users.

It has been positive, for the most part, but I struggle to know if I will continue as key functions don't appear to be on the horizon, such as the gallery/album feature I mentioned above.
Pros
The simple interface for members is positive and I like the course integration.
Cons
This is a big problem for community. We share photos and the live feed loses a lot of posts over time.

Pros
Members aren't inundated with ads and links to other content. The design is elegant and simple creating a beautiful container for meaningful conversations and content.
Cons
It would be beneficial to have video content hosted internally for ease of administration and to encourage members to share their own video content.

I have been using Mighty Networks for a little over two years now and it has been great to see the platform develop and grow. The people at Mighty Networks are fantastic and their availability, feedback, and knowledge have fundamentally and positively altered how I am approaching my business and how I teach. Community empowered education is the future of online learning and Mighty Networks is a fantastic starting point for those interested in designing free or paid collaborative learning experiences.
Pros
It is easy to get started, produce content and engage with members in various contexts.
Cons
As with any third-party platform, there are substantive limitations to the customization and design options available to hosts.

We really appreciate this thoughtful review Jeff and are honored to hear that our approach to community design has impacted your own teaching.
I want to bring a group of people together to learn and grow and support each other as I mentor them along the way and provide access to a resource bank - Mighty Networks is just the right fit for all those things, along with one of the best customer service experiences I've had online.
Pros
I love the close, sheltered experience my members get when they join me in our group - they can focus, be honest, and stay on track without distractions or worries about information getting out.
Cons
Integrating with another software in order to share video is still a work in progress but it is possible and there is promise that there is more to come!

Thank you Patricia! We're so glad you've had a great customer experience--we really are behind you. Glad to hear that you're able to bring your vision to life with a Mighty Network.
Business problems we're trying to solve - connecting a global community of entrepreneurs and leaders who share a common heritage, building entrepreneurship skills, and driving financial inclusion.
Pros
The features that are customizable include: creating groups, courses, and membership levels.
Cons
The Community Design course and the Mighty Hosts group are very helpful but when you need that quick response, the chat takes 24 hours to respond.

Mighty Networks is something that I look forward to watching grow and evolve. The market is wide open and they have yet to let me down.
Pros
Having a third party tool to continue growing a community is key to the ever changing landscape.
Cons
The benefit of Mighty Networks is also the detriment. Because my group is no longer on FB, daily entries in to the group are lower and the overall experience for members is lower. Now people have to go out of their way to join and participate. This means less people over all, but more dedicated people.

I like that I can bring my courses, community & content all together in one place.
Cons
I think the thing I hate the most is the landing page structure; I wish there were more flexibility with what you could do to design the landing pages; more like a drag & drop page-builder.

I would stay with Mighty Networks if I could process my subscription payments directly with MN, or with another payment processor.
Pros
I love that there is a mobile app. I also really appreciate that Mighty Networks hosts video for courses so I don’t have to look elsewhere for video hosting.
Cons
I wish Mighty Networks would partner with another payment processor because Stripe is highly restrictive as to which businesses it allows to hold accounts. I am a lawyer, a psychic, and a spiritual educator and I sought to use Mighty Networks to host my monthly membership community where I help folks with their spiritual development. However, Stripe closed my account because I provide psychic services. For this reason I am migrating to another platform that allows me to process payments without having to use Stripe. I am very disappointed because I love the platform and so do my clients. They have been on there for the past 8 weeks in my online course but I have decided to also migrate my course to my website.

Hi Judith! We're always looking for feedback like this. We have big chat improvements coming later this year as well that will have some of the chat functionality you like with Slack. Let us know about any other specific feature asks and we can share them with the product team.
Using mighty networks has been a great alternative to Facebook groups.
Pros
My clients can access via the app or online and it’s super easy for me to push out content regularly.
Cons
There are some limitations. I’d like to be able to “go live” and record directly to the platform.
