phpFox is an online community platform for businesses, brands, educators, creators and other interest groups.
Designed for social neighborhoods, it is a social networking platform that helps users send private messages, track activities, and share recommendations.
I love the fact that everything is so customizable. The support from phpfox is amazing and the apps from the store is everything I need for my platform.
I was having some issues with understanding the hosting process and my ignorance of the issue almost caused a serious mess.
I like how you can edit admin side good and has alot of amazing features. You have facebook type wall ;love it.
Documentation was poor, and upgrades were always buggy and never free from stress.
The software is relatively easy to install and if there were any difficulties, help was given immediately, thanks again to the very good support.
Do not run directly to the news feed, when no login is required. I wish, no need to login to still run to the news feed.
The customer service has been outstanding at phpFox, they respond to questions and issues within a day and are always willing to help.
I have been a user of PhpFox for over a decade, and it has gone through many controversial twists and turns and evolutions as the ownership has changed hands several times.
The best thing is when people reach out for local help. That seems to be a huge benefit.
My experience is next door company is hell may be they can try to change name next door hell I won't recommend to contractor may be this ppl don't know how hard contractor make money to pay them.
It is a great way to get to know your city, your town, your community, your neighborhood. Connecting with those who have like minds and exploring differences, isn't that what life is about.
Guidelines are subjective and their immediate response is to ban members for a month for each violation. Not turning off comments, deleting posts, or even letting members know why.
I like that the Nextdoor app is user friendly. You can post and search for topics with ease.
Difficult to remove negative profiles from site once reported.
Nestdoor makes it so easy to keep up with everything going on in your neighborhood. Nextdoor is very safe and secure, you can trust all nextdoor members.
It’s still a struggle with the neighborhood leads. They need to work on unifying the neighborhood leads.
Jason: Hi, my name is Jason. I am a Lieutenant. I give Nextdoor a five out of five. And for more ratings like this, please click below. In my line of work, we're always looking for new and innovative ways to engage with our community. And it's very hard to do based on varying work schedules and just the overall geographic size of our city. Nextdoor allows us to specify and tailor our communication to different neighborhoods and HOAs and parts of the city. It makes it very easy for us to connect with the people that live and work within our community. What I like best about Nextdoor is the ability to narrow and widen your communication to the entire city or to specific groups or neighborhoods within your jurisdiction. The thing I like the least about Nextdoor is pretty much the same with any social media platform. As you engage with your citizens, sometimes this can lead to some distasteful and hate-filled communication between citizens within that group. However, Nextdoor, it's very easy to set restrictions and cut off some of the threads to reduce some of that poor communication between neighbors and citizens.
Prioritize real-user-identified key features according to your needs to find your best fit.
