"A community of magicians..."

5/5

What do you like best about Website Toolbox Forums?

Website Toolbox has allowed me to create a very real community with magicians from around the world. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Website Toolbox Forums?

The only downside it that my forum members and I have come to really love an older theme. We tried some of the newer ones, but didn’t quite like the look of them.

Retaining an older theme has not allowed us to enjoy some of the features of the newer themes, such as tagging users in a post. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

4.5/5

The ease of launching a forum and ongoing maintenance without worrying about hosting or software maintenance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Website Toolbox Forums?

Some of the templates are outdated and I had issues with support for a short while but I believe it was more geared towards one associate versus a company-wise issue as other instances I’ve reached out haven’t caused concern. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Website Toolbox Forums:

The forums are very clean and when I’ve needed support the team has been great about responding timely and fixing issues on the back end which arose for me. Thank you. I found this solution better than owning the software and maintaining the backend - I needed a solution which was simple to maintain and keep operating without worries of bandwidth, hosting, upload restrictions.

I’m glad you’ve loved how easy Website Toolbox is and how helpful our support is! Thanks for your feedback regarding the themes. We’ve launched several new themes over the last few months and are working on many more. Two new themes currently undergoing testing are Lights Out (a dark theme) and Compact. A texturized theme, seamless embed-first theme, and others are also in development!

Hi Mark! I'm glad you thought the forum was economical and easy to add to your website.

You can group users by creating custom user groups.

"Have been using Webste Toolbox for 6 months an enjoy the huge capabilities"

4/5

What do you like best about Website Toolbox Forums?

Unlimitted capabilities to create and integrate forums into several websites. Flexibility in term of integration and customization. Subscription based on usage instead of on users, which make the solution very affordable for small businesses. Excellent support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Website Toolbox Forums?

Not enough web analytics to better understand user behaviors, i.e. ability for the admin to see which members have visited which pages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Website Toolbox Forums:

Have a clear plan about what you want to create before starting the implementation. Adapt all along as Website Toolbox may not have what you want but will have a feature that will bring you pretty close to your initial product idea. Don't be afraid to contact support: They have been very helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Website Toolbox Forums solving and how is that benefiting you?

Building a social network almost as powerful as LinkedIn within any website. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy-to-use service backed by great customer support"

The service is excellent, and much more reliable than the enormous headache of trying to host it myself. And support is very responsive and helpful. Highly recommended! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Website Toolbox Forums?

Recently there have been problems with people not getting their notifications when expected. And like any other software there are occasional bugs that cause issues as well as service interruptions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Sandeep Sondhi of Website Toolbox Forums

I'm glad to know that you've found Website Toolbox to be much better than hosting the forum yourself and that our support team has been helpful.

We've been working very hard to improve the notifications system. With the various changes we've made over the last few months, I'm glad to report that notifications are being delivered in a timely manner now. If you still face any issues with this, please let us know and we'll investigate it right away.

We take service interruptions extremely seriously. Over the last 20 years in business, we've maintained a 99.999% uptime. Most years we have a 100% uptime.

Thank you for your feedback. We'll use it to continually improve.
