We are seeing more and more leaders in the industry choose BuddyBoss
to launch their WordPress-powered social network
With BuddyBoss, you create and launch your online community faster,
and without all the pain that comes with trying to make BuddyPress and
bbPress work.
Simple Stack: One Plugin, One Theme, and if you want it, one Mobile App.
Unified admin experience: The settings are organized beautifully, with video tutorials explaining each section. The forum functionality and the social networking functionality are brought together into the same plugin.
Synchronized updates: When we update the BuddyBoss Platform, we’ll usually update the BuddyBoss Theme on the same day. Contrast this with using plugins from different authors, and when new functionality gets added to the plugins, you realize that your theme doesn’t have styling for it, which means it won’t look nice. You then need to hire developers to style it for you, and it becomes a pain to maintain it all.
The features you need, out of the box: We’ve added a huge set of features that are missing in BuddyPress, even very basic things like support for media. In BuddyPress you can’t add photos; you have to add a third-party plugin for that. You can’t follow other users; you have to add a third-party plugin for that.
Customer Support: BuddyPress doesn’t have professional support. You end up posting in forums and waiting for someone to respond. It will usually take a few days to weeks before someone responds, if they respond at all. At BuddyBoss, we have 9-5 Eastern customer support. We have a distributed team of support agents and an office of support agents with a 9-5 Eastern shifting schedule. At any time of the day, there are agents ready to answer your questions, and if there’s a bug in the product we’ll go onto your website, patch it and fix it in the product.
Speed of development: We have a large team of developers working day and night, throughout the year on building new features and improving existing features. And we’re moving very aggressively. As the months go by, our feature set will keep stacking and stacking.
fork of BuddyPress and bbPress, we made sure to retain all the compatibility with the existing BuddyPress plugins.TESTIMONIALS
