I just signed up with Brilliant directories and so far I can say that Marco has been there every step of the way answering every question and putting up with my indecisiveness with a smile. I'm sure he cussed me out behind my back but if he did I sure wouldn't know because he was a class act and very knowledgeable through the whole thing. Even after I bought the package Marco followed up on a weekend, Yeah Saturday morning now that's customer service.

We've been looking for a directory website software for the past 6 month, and of the bunch we researched and tested with, Brilliant Directories came out on top. In short, Brilliant Directories offer a stellar product, service and community to support any business that is in the market for an industrial grade directory website software/platform.
Too many premium add-ons that aren't included with the membership or LTD.

Thanks for your feedback. Looks like the Bootstrap Theme is helping our customers make their dreams a reality with little to know advanced skills in coding required. Thanks :)

Dennis took the time to thoroughly answer my questions and concerns about Brilliant Directories before signing me up for the platform. He made sure that my concerns were put to the rest by emphasizing the different features of Brilliant Directories as they pertained to my needs. I am happy with the support I have received before making a decision to purchase the software from the company. I hope to receive great results for my directory from the use of the software.

Great to actually get a call after making online registration. It was a good professional call. When you receive a call, you know its a sales call yet, some people are very keen to sell, but your approach was good. Assisting people to understand more is important which you have achieved. I would have liked it if you after asking my 'Industry' proactively sent through some sample sites/clients. This gives client a greater comfort and understanding of your platform.

Overall the experience was okay. I belive the uploading of categories could be better. Also it you assigned everyone a dedicated tutor during the setup process instead of the videos might get more people to buy into your product.

Thanks for the feedback James. We provide each customer with credits that can be used towards one-on-one training with a tutor. I suggest using your free credits towards this to help get your business of the ground.

This is a fabulous product provided by fabulous folk. I'm loving it. The support is awesome. I feel I have found a family and friends. I have been looking for this script for ten years. I have tried every script out there, gone back to old options, tried again and ended up back at square one. Then I found Brilliant Directories and what a find. Finally, a ten year search and some-one had the nous to do the job properly, fully and finally. The last word on directories.

I had considered building a directory site with Wordpress but decided to use Brilliant Directories instead because it offers support. I think the company knows the value proposition to customers is ease of use and set up support. I wasn't all that impressed with the sales support. I had specific market and technical questions that he couldn't answer. Instead he read off a script. So far so good, I like the platform and follow through Brilliant offers.

If the product works at the same level of quality as Dennis I will be very happy and will be able to justify the monthly fee involved. The only reason I have set the "ease of use" to 3 stars is due to the fact I am not up and running yet (sorry guys) but I'm sure it will work to the level I am expecting in which case will re-rate the ease of use at 5 stars. Dennis was a huge help when making my decision whether or not to go with this service, so well done to Dennis.

Unfortunately, I can not give an analysis of the software yet. The review software requires I fill in the ratings field. Truly, the customer service has been great. They offer a plethera of videos to help you get started. But, I have not had a chance to use the product yet. I bought it based on price and features. If the features are as advertised, I expect the software to be great. So far, the customer service has been excellent.

Hi John, Thank you for your feedback. We certainly understand how you feel. You may want to look at some of the onboarding plans that come available with your purchase. This allows you to bypass having to learn how every thing works, and gets your site up and running much faster.

Brilliant Directories is really the most brilliant directory out there. For year, I have searched for a directory that combines ease of use, elegant look and advanced search features. I found that with Brilliant Directories. On top of offering an outstanding product, the company is run by dedicated and very courteous professionals who will go the extra mile, just to make sure the customer is satisfied. This is the best deal for my business.

Our directory of 2,000 restaurants, restaurantsCT.com, had become outdated and no longer ran on our server. After almost 6 months of being "down," and several failed attempts with other directory software, I happened upon Brilliant Directories. Dennis called me back almost immediately and was very helpful guiding me through the demos. I knew this was the solution I was searching for. We'll be live and profitable again real soon, I am sure.

I have looked at several online directory products over the past 6 months. I recently came across Brilliant Directories and was very pleased with all the features and ease of use the product offers. I took over a week to make my final decision. Marco (my sales rep from Brilliant Directories) was fast in answering all my questions. I am excited to be launching my directory soon. I highly recommend Brilliant Directories.

Goo product, quick responses for queries, ease of use is good. Could be a bit more customisable but for the price cant complain. Lots of videos to show you what to do (although I'm terrible with following instructions) however once you get the slick dashboard it becomes quite intuitive to follow without instruction just waiting to have my categories and pricing structure imported, then I'm good to go
