Abuzz passes with flying colors.
Overall for my first year in higher education, I loved having an app I could go to view daily activities, group chats, and having it all there at your fingertips and not on seperate apps is great.
PROSThe features about abuzz that I appreciate most is the apps ability to connect a campus full of students who are on many different wavelengths and combines it all seamlessly into an app.
CONSSome of the notifications for large groupchats are off from the time of the message to the notifications. I missed quite q lot.

Abuzz fraternity perspective review
Frustrating because of the missed potential for both parties

I love Abuzz!
I very much like Abuzz and will continue using it in the coming years. I also really like the easy buy/sell option.
PROSAbuzz has been super easy to use, especially for a new student in a new area. It helped me navigate through the school semester as well as through different events around campus and the community.
CONSI did not like being shadow banned for a mistake on Abuzz’s part. There was no moderation on discussion forums and I believe there still is not.
