Having used the plugin extensively, this reviewer finds it robust for creating memberships in WordPress. The main limitation is that most support materials are only available in English, making it challenging for non-English speakers.

It brings powerful membership site features directly into WordPress with simplicity and flexibility. From protecting content and managing multiple membership levels to delivering drip content and pay-per-post capabilities, it has everything to build a fully customized, secure membership community or online course site.

The plugin interface and design feel a bit dated compared to newer SaaS membership platforms, but that is likely due to the WordPress environment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I was very impressed with the timely response (within 12 hours) and effective efforts of the support team. I needed help with a somewhat confusing situation where I had two accounts with two different subscriptions and they were very helpful in sorting things out. I was also very impressed with their willingness to accommodate my requests, whether it was to make up for me missing the expiration deadline for renewal (because of the Thanksgiving holiday craziness in my life) or supporting a legacy product that I purchased a while ago.

Sometimes I find their marketing emails too frequent, but overall feel like they offer useful info so it doesn't feel "spammy" and I stay subscribed to stay informed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

At first, you could get lost with so many features, but you quickly discover them as you go along, then you love playing with them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
WishList Member can be custom-tailored to do just about anything in regard to creating a WordPress hosted membership site or even course platform. If you have the technical knowledge (or have a tech person who does), you can build out your membership site however you need to. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is a tech curve so it can be difficult for anyone who isn't tech savvy or doesn't want to take the time to learn it. (This isn't a weakness at all, it actually gives it more versatility) The biggest thing that I currently do not like is they recently released the WishList Courses add-on and many license holders, including myself, have spent years creating what this add-on does the hard way. I feel it was a slap in the face that this upgrade is being positioned as an add-on and not included in the main WishList license. I've never had an issue paying for add-ons that allowed use with other software/services, but strongly feel the courses add-on should have been part of the primary license.
