"Great platform for a membership site!"
What do you like best about BuddyPress?

I like that there are various options to customize your site and that you can integrate it with a CRM, and a membership gateway such as Memberium or Memberpress. This platform has allowed us to create a private membership site and community for our members. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BuddyPress?

There are some customizations that you have to download a third-party plug-in to make and then some customizations would require a web developer to make. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Buddy Press Best community building for WordPress sites"
What do you like best about BuddyPress?

BP is dead easy to set up. Default pages are created automatically and mapped to their proper functions. also, I liked the option of being able to customize and create a social media website similar to Facebook, Twitter, etc. it's an open-source plugin for WordPress which is free to cost. Even you can customize it if you've some programming knowledge. The thing, I love about BuddyPress is its huge community support. I needed a backend for my website and I thought this was going to be a great option. It wasn't.

The team there is very nice and responsive, but it wasn't fit for my company. We ended up going with a project management back end. With BuddyPress, you get to make your website social and interactive. I wanted to create a website where people could talk and interact but I was not sure i could handle a forum. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BuddyPress?

No built-in media uploading. Activity updates are similarly crippled. There's no text editor so users can't even add inline hypertext links. Finally, after posting the problem to different online forums, it was resolved. Compatibility issue is one thing BuddyPress user may battle with, especially on WordPress users.

The plugin may not work well with some themes and plugins. It doesn't provide you complete social media site feature, so you need other plugins or you need coding to create features as per your requirements. also add a new profile img. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Incredible platform for special community site builds"
What do you like best about BuddyPress?

BuddyPress is a very flexible community based platform build as a plugin for WordPress. The main things I really like about BuddyPress is it's flexibility from a coding perspective. It's built with developers in-mind with a large range of hooks and over-ridable functions that make customisations a breeze! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BuddyPress?

At times the documentation can be a-little sparse so it can be tricky to find answers when you are getting into deep customisation - although that's improving all the time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"BuddyPress Solved our Problem"
What do you like best about BuddyPress?

The ease of set up was a standout for us. Anything we needed to do seemed pretty straightforward over all. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BuddyPress?

For the most part, BuddyPress did what we had intended it to do. We were a team of designers and developers, so working around limitations was a part of our daily life. Otherwise, BuddyPress gave us what we were looking for structurally. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Buddypress with my experience and thoughts"
What do you like best about BuddyPress?

Buddpress is one of the best community portal for CMS. Buddy press is a very user-Friendly plugin in WordPress. If Anyone wants To create Own community Portal for their company. I will suggest BuddyPress because the overall development time and cost would be significantly less. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BuddyPress?

But we have very less plugin in market place for other feature like wiki, file management And. File sharing. For each community portal file sharing option for group user or another group member. That option is not there. And for file management also there is no restriction and no private folder for each user. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
