A lot of learning and trying things out but so much fun and I feel my creative juices flowing when I am building and thinking of how best to set up and use this platform for hosting our community.
One downside I found with Circle is its limited storage for growing communities and the lack of advanced automation features.
I love how beautiful the UI is for the this software. The UX is also intuitive and constantly be improved upon every year.
I've felt frustrated with bugs and customer service, which are the tradeoffs of choosing a smaller company over mighty networks & kajabi.
I enjoy running my community here and love the team who are very attentive. The platform is great, so easy to use and set up.
Also there are glitches which means sometimes I see things that are incorrect or inaccurate which causes confusion and frustation.
My overall experience with Circle has been sincerely positive. It’s given me the tools to build a values-driven, supportive community where people can connect in meaningful ways.
Updates which mean I lose features or have to update whole group spaces due to the the styling updates.
For us, it's perfect to run an ambassador program at Cridio and it does exactly what we want out of the box. With excellent UI/UX and customer service.
Had to abandon due to our community being too big for the platform to handle without frustration.
Mobilize is effective in hosting its platform both in the community space and via email. The capability to send out important announcements and events from the platform to email is unique and useful.
When we first moved to it, the features were a little more limited.
So much support to set up your community, so much support to reach healthy community benchmarks, really great response time from the troubleshooting time, great transparency in product roadmaps.
At present, i get individual emails for the same thread so if there are 30 replies, I get 30 separate emails which is just too noisy.
I like the layout of the forum with different channels and it's very mobile friendly. Reminds me of using Slack but with a better structure to the conversations and posts.
Lightweight functionality, pricing structure, no moderation roles, low integration between different subgroups.
