MemberPress will work brilliantly for any small, mid-sized or large business that would like to roll out a Membership or eLearning site for their customers.
Simplero is for marketers, coaches, and thought leaders who want simplicity and power in their marketing software.
What I liked most was that it includes a robust and powerful payment gateway integration with Stripe and Paypal. Also, setting up the criteria and parameters of memberships is easy and intuitive.
For sure the most frustrating part of this was the inability (as far as I could see) to turn off notifications during an import.
I enjoy working with this tool because of the flexibility and comfort it provides. Would recommend trying it for yourself.
Horrible implementation and setup - especially for anyone with an existing membership.
The response was instant and the solution very quickly solved. The help is outstanding, friendly which gave me the confidence to roll out subscriptions with ease.
I am not sure why that is necessary and feel that's been the one downside to memberpress being linked with WordPress in this way.
I am relatively new to web design and website management so was facing a huge learning curve already but this plugin is soo amazing, easy to use and support is fantastic.
I originally purchased WooCommerce and had a lot of trouble trying to configure it for use with memberships. It required several add-on purchases.
My greatest challenge in business is putting up a great looking website that integrates with my back office, solving challenges like client communication, billing, collection, and various other tasks.
I will be doing video reviews and everything to stop people from using this system. That is a ridiculous stupid feature.
Great website designer at par with some of the best Wordpress themes. Structured course building modules supporting all standard features (video, download,quiz...).
The only complaint I have is that I hadn't found Simplero sooner.
It’s so easy and simple to use yet incredibly powerful. I also love the clean design.
My only criticism (and it isn't really) is that they don't promote the platform enough...not enough people know what a game-changer Simplero could be in their business. It deserves a cult-following.
I help people all over Norway to have a better life through my online courses. I can work from all over the world and have courses in Norway, it's really cool.
Simplero had an extremely tough learning curve.
Christina C.: Hi, I'm Christina. I'm a nutritionist and I give MemberPress a five out of five. For more reviews like this, click below. I chose MemberPress because I have a WordPress website and I wanted a membership and course plugin that would blend seamlessly into my website and that would be very effective. I looked at other options, external subscription options, and they were just too expensive and ultimately I didn't have control over the content, so I chose MemberPress and I'm very glad I did. I chose MemberPress because there are very robust features that come with the product. It's very affordable price point. There's also a lot of support, so setting up the plugin and adding it to my website was so easy. I received so much support through email and also directly contacting their support team. That was wonderful. It allowed me to set up my course and my membership up without a hitch, so really grateful. Setting up MemberPress was easy. As soon as I purchased the plugin, I received a series of emails with step-by-step instructions telling me exactly how to install a plugin, how to adjust the settings, and then how to format and customize it so that it matched my websites, CSS and HTML. For anyone looking to install MemberPress, please know that you need to be knowledgeable when it comes to WordPress and using the backend. Installing the plugin is easy, but setting it up so that it seamlessly meshes with your website, can be a bit tricky. So either you need to have robust knowledge when it comes to working with WordPress, or you need to have a great developer who can easily install the plugin and set it up. Once it's set up, adding the content and also getting the payment gateway set up, is fairly easy.
Prioritize real-user-identified key features according to your needs to find your best fit.
