The Viafoura team is not just helpful and responsive in any unique situation that arises, but anticipates many of our engagement needs by trialling and implementing new functions and initiatives. New features are seamlessly rolled out, often with little-to-no lift required on our end, and early results and data points are communicated frequently so we can see how they're performing.

"Intuitive, Innovative, Intelligent"
5/5
What do you like best about Viafoura?

As a moderator who deals with many grey areas in discussions, viafoura's tools are key to highlighting content which otherwise would bypass conventional filters and word flags. It allows for multiple nuanced conversations to remain active as well as highlighting problematic sentences and sensitive wordplay. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Viafoura?

It would be lovely to have more exportable widgets for viewing active threads and articles, single use usernames and a better experience on mobile. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

4/5
What do you like best about Viafoura?

It's easy to reach the people that we need to make something work - some of our writers were having trouble with a topic, stuck between a rock and a hard place in terms of moderation and receiving many complaints about it. Viafoura staff were quick on the uptake when we told them about this, and since then our writers have received no complaints at all, which is always good to see!

What do you dislike about Viafoura?

Occasional technical issues can make the backend a little frustrating to use, but it can be worked around. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't think there are any major drawbacks, however, I think the AI can sometimes be too sensitve when looking at possible comments to deactivate. Although being cautious can be a good thing. The moderation tool can sometimes be tricky to navigate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
