Coach Marketing and Advertising ### "PeerBoard is big league..." 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 April 14, 2022 I was set up in less than 20 minutes and ready to go with my brand-new custom-looking online community platform. Unfortunately, I made a rookie mistake during setup and accidentally deleted my whole account (it's not an easy thing to do, I clicked through several "are you sure?" prompts but still screwed it up due to being on the phone and trying to work across 200 desktop tabs.) When I realized my mistake, I messaged the help team and got an answer and reset immediately - and not just a "here, it's fixed, off you go," I felt fully supported with their emails saying, "okay, that's all sorted. How are you getting on otherwise? Is there anything else we can help with?" I later realized I was speaking directly with the founder, who probably had a gazillion things to do, but he made me feel like I was an exclusive client. His communication was up there with the best customer service I have EVER received. Pros From the outside, PeerBoard looks like humble and basic community software. The available features are streamlined and considered - and that's what I LOVE about it. They focus on doing the right things properly so you can offer an incredible experience to your users. I'm a white-label user, and it sits within my brand like it was custom-made for my community. It's modern, elegant, and includes the bells and whistles you need. New community platforms are launching by the minute, but I believe PeerBoard is here to conquer them all. Cons I guess I'd like to be able to edit some of the frontend message content, so the brand language fit is closer, but I'm nitpicking. The system works perfectly well for me without that.

AU Anonymous User Founder Arts and Crafts ### "Cost Effective, Easy to Use Software to Build Your OWN Community" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 August 26, 2021 We needed a private community that would be relatively easy for our target market to navigate and feel comfortable using. PeerBoard delivers on that without a bunch of unnecessary distractions. When there have been issues as they've rolled out their roadmap PeerBoard support has done a great job responding and fixing things. I'm excited to see where they go in the next 12 to 24 months. Pros We needed a community that allowed us to control access and privacy settings. Something intuitive and user friendly which allowed us to create our own categories and control access levels based on membership. PeerBoard delivered on all that. While relatively young company they have a clear development roadmap which they have consistently been executing since we purchased their service. This is very important for long term success for them and for us. Peerboard allows you to completely white label, and has a very simple WordPress plugin so interaction from your own domain is seamless to the user. Very important! Cons There is one thing not yet available though it is on their roadmap to implement. Mentions, i.e. @MemberName, are not yet available. Since PeerBoard is an alternative to a well trafficked site such as Facebook mentions are an important way to draw people back and encourage them to participate in the discussions. Sometimes their login requires resetting via magic link. It's annoying. Alternatives considered [Bettermode](https://www.capterra.com/p/178753/Bettermode/) [Mighty Networks](https://www.capterra.com/p/185819/Mighty-Networks/) Reasons for choosing PeerBoard Ability to white label and access directly from our own website.

Blogger Writing and Editing ### "Useful Forum Software" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 0.0 0.0 Likelihood to Recommend 9/10 July 20, 2021 Peerboard Forums are easy-to-use forum software designed for companies and individuals who want to run a successful online community. Pros Peerboard Forums are SEO friendly. They are accessible via desktop, tablet, and mobile devices. You can also integrate Peerboard forums with your external blogs or social networks for even easier access. Cons The WordPress plugin is limited in functionality. Compared to using the forum software directly on their website, I had trouble adding categories or managing member profiles.

Content Creator | Musician Music ### "The Ultimate Community Forum" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 May 30, 2021 PeerBoard has been a joy to use and it has become an integral part of my community. They offer excellent support and are constantly looking to evolve the platform. For users looking to offer their clients and subscribers a slick and exclusive community forum, I cannot think of a better solution than PeerBoard. Pros PeerBoard offers an incredibly slick solution for those wishing to create a community similar in tone and style to Reddit and Discord but with some exclusive features. The minimal interface, the ability to white-label your forum and host it on your own domain makes PeerBoard an innovative and unique solution, different from its main competitors. Cons At present, I can't think of any features that I'd like to request from PeerBoard. They have some very exciting features on their roadmap and I have no doubt that they'll continue to go from strength to strength as the platform matures.

It's simple and easy to use - helps us build our community on our own website and not on Facebook. Pros Simple and fast to set up with the Shopify integration. Great user experience. Highly customizable. Cons There are a few features missing that I'd personally like to see on the platform. Alternatives considered [Higher Logic Vanilla](https://www.capterra.com/p/141384/Vanilla/) Reasons for choosing PeerBoard Better user experience, cheaper and much simpler to set up.

Pros The champion among the community platforms. The feature set is a perfect fit for our community. The interface is intuitive and user-friendly both for administrators and community members. It was not rocket science to start work with PeerBoard and to move our community there. I like that it provides lots of variations of setting up privacy controls and user groups. The support team is highly responsive. Cons It would be great to find more deep customization options.

CK Chris K. Founder Online Media ### "Amazing Software - Easy to Set-up/Simple to Use!! Replaced 4 other modules I was using!" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 February 10, 2021 I am a huge fan of this software. I currently have set up and run 5 different PeerBoards. In one use case, it replaced a News, Forum, FAQ, and Highlight Modules. In another use case, I have it set up in a private WP site via the plugin as a Yahoo Groups Replacement. It is a great software to use and implement. I have been able to tailor it to a variety of uses and applications and I look forward to seeing what advancements they come out with! Pros Easy to set up! It has a simplicity about it - which is a huge strength! It is not overly bloated with things - it is streamlined to do what it is set up for! I especially like that its simplicity makes it easy for users to know what to do as soon as they sign on! It is pretty easy to "Self-learn" how to use it on the user end. There are also a lot of customization options for the admin to make it look the way you want without compromising the simplicity of the User Experience. Cons Integration was pretty easy - the only issue I had was in setting up the SEO - turns out it was a bug on their end and they fixed it very quickly! The things I like least are the limited html editor and image options for posts and the slow load for the WP plugin. Both of these issues are getting fixes and updates, so I don't think I will have those dislikes too much longer! Reasons for choosing PeerBoard The Daily Digests were first thing that brought me to it as it was close to what Yahoo Groups had (I am happy they are adding in the Weekly Digest Option and the No Digest Option. As soon as I started testing it out, I saw its ease of use, simplicity yet powerful features, and knew it was the option I was looking for!
