They had their software up and running for me within a day and went out of their way to make sure I was confortable with the startup template. After the fact, their support is most helpful as well. Every email I sent or question I have regarding the software is responded to in a very timely fashion. On top of this, ILance has an active community forum with moderators and members who are always willing to help, listen, and contribute. When it comes to the software itself, I was surprised at the ease of use in my control panel. There are hundreds of options allowing for total customization for my auction site. This software lets me be in 100% control of every aspect I can imagine as I bring what I had in mind to life. This is by far my software of choice for my auction site and I have been pleased in all aspects of the process. #### Cons I have not yet found any cons, been using it about 6 months, if do I am sure I will receive support for my needs --- ### The quality of this script is unbelievable good and professional - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Sivert E. - Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months - Reviewed: September 2017 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically.

No incentive was offered I initially had to choose between 10 different companies that were providing auction software, after my first conversation with Erin I knew ILANCE was the way to go, the customer support is awesome. Now, I am by far not the most technology savy person but the ILANCE software is very user friendly from both the back and front end of the site...I have had nothing but praises about my site - If you are someone who is looking for a company to provide the best possible product to really wow your customers you have definitely come to the right place with ILANCE! #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 --- ### iLance is the only choice, Can’t beat the price, support and design - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: David W. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Real Estate - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months - Reviewed: August 2019 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered We met with about 20 companies when looking for software to replace our Shopify website. We are a startup company, but wanted something out of the box that would be usable for our clients and customers. Erin was by far the most responsive of all the competitors. Not only was she responsive, she knew her limitations and relied on her developers and IT staff to support her. Then, I was introduced to the iLance community. Their support has been outstanding. Many platforms, comments and questions are generally ignored. If you are looking for a way to improve your business in your community. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros This is a true support community.

Keep it up! - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Wilbard M. - Product usage: Used unspecified for unspecified - Reviewed: January 2016 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered Dear friends, Before buying, I studied the demo version of the Ilance software and searched for Ilance reviews on the net via google. I decided to order Ilance script despite of some negative reviews in some forums. I also read some Peter's comments over some negative reviews. Peter's comments are strong and sound to be from a learned person ! It was Peter's comments plus my own analysis of the situation which made me decide to purchase. So What happened after I purchased? ' I opted to buy installation service from the owners of script to avoid any responsibility in case the system could not run well. I was afraid they could say OH! its because of your poor installation. ' It was Erin who supervised the installation ' I got the Ilance system and its now running my website. ' I have tested almost every function except those related to payment gateways. ' The system is working /running very well and its not slow. It opens quickly ' I have not discovered any bug todate May I take this opportunity to congratulate Ilance Team for a good work! Keep it up! Wilbard, #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 --- ### I would recommend the iLance Marketplace to anyone - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Paul H. - Product usage: Used unspecified for unspecified - Reviewed: March 2016 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered When it comes to looking to acquire new software, my first and most important point is the software MUST be easy to use and intuitive. Secondly I get in contact with the developers and see how they communicate with a prospective customer, me! I took no notice of any previous glitches in the software but spoke to the team and told them what I was needing to accomplish for my customer and still don't. I judge everything on how it has worked for me over the past 3 months. Erin and Peter have ALWAYS got in contact with every newbie problem I have had, which sometimes just takes reading the manual to sort it but they patiently guided me to a satisfactory result, meaning the Marketplace software done its job on our first 2016 National Flying Club Pigeon Auction, to the tune of making the customer about 4 times their initial investment in the software! I would recommend the iLance Marketplace to anyone that is SERIOUS about having Auction software that works, with a competent team to back it up and support you. Thank you Guys. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 --- ### The ILance team is awesome!! - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Floyd T. - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 2 years - Reviewed: August 2017 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically.
