Pros

“This, I am told, is a known issue going back MONTHS.”
Verified reviewer profile picture

Barbra B.

Web Developer

“This was especially true with the peer-to-peer support tools that allowed us to make our research deadlines as we utilized technology to keep our team productive and accountable.”
JJ

Joshua J.

Researcher

“It functions smoothly with our wordpress website, as well as our integration with MemberClicks.”

Sarah B.

Program Manager

Pros

“The flexibility to customize member experiences, manage events, and integrate with our existing tools made it a great candidate for our community needs.”
JW

Justin W.

Director of Information Technology

“I like the email campaign feature a lot as I can make it look really good and narrow down which members to contact.”
MG

Madeleine G.

Change and Relationship Officer

“That means that admins needs to dedicate time to that issue, instead focusing on the animation of the community.”
HB

Hichem B.

Knowledge Sharing Officer

Cons

“It's cumbersome at best, you have to jump to different areas of the interface to edit a single page. Despite it being based on the Bootstrap system, it is a terrible bastardization that does not allow even a full-width image to be displayed in a hero, you can't go wider than 1200px, so it looks awful on most desktops.”

Web Developer

“I'd much rather pay for a platform that gets our job done without working longer hours due to Higher Logic's issues on the backend (that's effected all companies, apparently).”
MK

Meghann K.

Marketing Administrator

“Additionally, the lack of updates and support from their customer support team has ruined the experience.”
MK

Meghann K.

Marketing Administrator

Cons

“Lack of customisability can occasionally cause some issues for functionality, but we are not using the platform for its intended purpose which should be kept in mind.”
MG

Madeleine G.

Change and Relationship Officer

“Occasional glitches. Why the "Discover Groups" view (or what we call Spaces) shows Groups who I'm already part of, it doesn't make sense. ”
MS

Matt S.

Systems and Engagement Manager

“The lack of analytic information on what the users are consuming, and lack of support for team packages.”
