Patreon Reviews & Product Details

Is a great platform to listen to your favorite podcast people and to interact with them and to know what’s going on in your favorite podcast. Also the subscription is not expensive at all. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

That I have to pay a subscription for each channel of podcast that I want to listen instead of a full subscription for all the ones that I want to hear Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The advantages of Patreon are it's well-known, and I can upload text or images in seconds. I'm blessed with some Patrons. What competitors>. How thin can I, a multimedia artist and author, spread myself? I run my whole enterprise. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One of my Patrons unsubscribed because she's disgusted with all those goddam fees, and she'd rather I, the artist, get all of the money I make. I wish Patreon would charge less fees. Another friend won't use Patreon for god knows why reasons. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

-Flexible posting options (from podcasting to text to images, etc)

-Low monthly fees/losses (I joined early at an early tier, though, before they started their current sillier payment solution)

-Well-known (so users aren't scared of signing up)

-Marketplace lets me also look for other creators who are doing interesting things

-Secure and private messaging options to keep in touch with patrons

-Integrates with a number of other software options--for example, whenever I get a new patron Patreon notifies my Bonjoro, which then lets me send them a video message as a thank-you Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

-Apparently if you join now, you're given payment options that make you lose more money than if you joined when I did. If I were new, that would make me consider another service, perhaps like Payhip, which I can run myself.

-They got rid of the Goals tier, which I thought was helpful for motivating patrons (but that's okay) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Patreon is easy to use. It has payment options that are available in my country. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Choosing between different plans and tiers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing at the moment. Both the web interface and app are easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Patreon treats its content creators very well I feel and the creators get to ask for donations to help them with creating more content and maintaining their channels on Pateron. I feel like Pateron puts content creators in the drivers seat when it comes to controlling what they choose to produce compared to other platforms which are not as friendly to content creators of which I won't mention.

Nothing that I can think of at the moment. The customer gets to decide how much they are willing to donate to a particular content creator which is great and I'm glad that Pateron allows flexibility in this area. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Patreon is an awesome way to connect with your customers and make them feel like they're part of a special community. We've done so many great things through Patreon - book clubs, special Zoom events, discount codes. With Patreon, it's easy to really foster a great connection!!

I don't love the comment system on Patreon - I feel like I miss things sometimes. I'm not sure how to make that better though - it's really like posting on a blog post now, as opposed to something more social-media-like? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like how I am offering exclusive content. I like how you are able to set different tiers and prices based on your business. I also like how Patreon handles the financial portion. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It takes a little bit of learning to navigate. It takes a while to build an audience. Other than that I don't have any major dislikes so far. I would like more tips on building an audience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Patreon to listen to podcasts I subscribe to. I like that I can download episodes to my phone (via the Patreon App) and have them ready to play at any time. They are quickly deleted from my storage once I've listened to the episode. I like that the Patreon app will organize my downloaded episodes in order of release. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The app's organization is terrible for users who are trying to access posts that are anything other than the most recent. The only option is to scroll and scroll every time you want to see an older post (or listen to an older podcast episode), and I find that incredibly annoying. It would be nice if the app allowed you to choose if you want to view posts oldest to newest instead of the default newest to oldest and if you could filter by posts you have seen or have not seen.
