## Reviews summary

- Overall rating: 4.7/5
- Total reviews: 94

### Secondary ratings

- Ease of use: 4.8/5
- Customer support: 4.8/5
- Value for money: 4.7/5

- 4 stars: 19 reviews (20%)
- 3 stars: 1 reviews (1%)
- 2 stars: 0 reviews (0%)
- 1 star: 1 reviews (1%)

### Most mentioned pros

- You can quickly build custom projects and customize the components to fit your exact needs, all that without knowing how to code and even design.
- They provide a lot of pre-made components you can just simply drag to the page and configure how you like, it saves you a bunch of time while building your projects.
- To e it is the best looking platform, similar to well known plattforms like Facebook, which makes it easy for my users to get around.

### Most mentioned cons

- Also a downside is that a lot of specific and useful options (like whitelableing and space) are organized in addons (a part from the subscription model)
- Then we spend a month convincing them to fix it — I mean, common, your resource is invisible on Google, and you don't have access to the backend to even try to do anything — but Bettermode only issues empty promises saying "It's our priority".
- We are going to move to version 2.0 and it is still lack of some function, especially the language that make my community is more frustrated because our community is not the native English speaker.

Tribe is helping bringing a sense of community to the wonderful users of Proposify. It allows me to connect with our customers on a deeper level and find out what makes them successful, while being able to drive that sense of unity home all at once. For the cost, I am blown away at what you get. I would easily pay double what they ask (but don't tell em)

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

I'm brand new to the SaaS community space, and honestly, Tribe was the right decision. I looked at some competitors that offered similar things, but at 2x the cost. I couldn't believe how incredible Tribe for the value.

#### Cons

Again, when I bought the software, it had a long way to go. But it's made incredible strides since then, and I'm glad I purchased! Truly took it from an MVP software to THE MVP software in community engagement. Huge props to the product team, they have their heads screwed on straight.

#### Reasons for choosing Bettermode

Price! Features were less robust without question, but they are improving substantially on that. I'm pumped at what it will look at in the next 90 days, but price was the deciding factor.

### Bettermode is a good solution for less demanding user based communities

- Overall rating: 4/5
- Reviewer: Francesco P.

- Industry: Arts and Crafts
- Company size: 2-10 employees

It's a good software that let you start very easily. In three days you can set something useful up. But the scaling options are a little bit limited by the addons pricing plans (each add-on will cost you money monthly)

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Value for money: 3/5
- Customer support: 4/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

Bettermode is a valid solution to build a support community that's easy to customize and with a paced ease of use. It has chat features and its cms can be easily used to adapt to very specific needs

#### Cons

The learning curve is a little bit stiff, since you have to adapt to its mechanisms. It has a lot of options that are gathered under the cms features. Also a downside is that a lot of specific and useful options (like whitelableing and space) are organized in addons (a part from the subscription model)

#### Reasons for switching to Bettermode

Circle has less customization options for my case

### Worst support I've ever met in my life

Very negative. Would never recommend anyone to go with this product if your goal lies beyond a fun project for friends and family. The frustrating part is that being a no-code platform, it doesn't provide you any control over the stuff like sitemap. At the same time, their support would keep sending you "your message is very important for us" type of communication for months and never solve your problem.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Value for money: 1/5
- Customer support: 1/5
- Functionality: 3/5

#### Pros

It's very easy to use. We managed to build the community portal for our product within a week

#### Cons

Don't know where to start. 1) It takes their support up to 72 h just to pick your ticket. 2) We submitted a ticket where we explained that the sitemap they generate for us automatically, contains errors. This prevents the web resource from being indexed by Google. It took them 10 days to just acknowledge the bug. Then we spend a month convincing them to fix it — I mean, common, your resource is invisible on Google, and you don't have access to the backend to even try to do anything — but Bettermode only issues empty promises saying "It's our priority". No deadlines, no dates – all along we remain a paying customer. Moving the community to Circle.so now

#### Reasons for choosing Bettermode

We chose Bettermode over Circle and Wordpress plugin, as it looked much easier to set up and manage. Apparently, it was a mistake

### A Highly flexible community and information management system.

Very positive so far, and the customer support for setting the system up couldn’t be faulted.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

I like how bettermode gives me complete control over scaling and managing my community. Prior to bettermode, I was reliant on developers and designers - which was completely impractical.

#### Cons

I couldn’t make too many complaints about bettermode, I understand that the software is a work in progress and the guys are always releasing new updates. The only feedback I would offer, is that receiving emails or a monthly newsletter about system updates would be helpful.

#### Reasons for choosing Bettermode

I was given a free trial with Bettermode, and during this time, I was able to configure the system in exactly the way that I needed it to be. From a practical stand point, I was able to see firsthand that bettermode could meet all my community system needs.

#### Reasons for switching to Bettermode

Buddy Boss was clunky, and caused our site no end of issues. Buddy boss left me reliant on a developer for assistance, so making system upgrades (or even minor improvements) was always very slow.

We could see better customer engagement after adding the social component inside our app to help the members connect with each other.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5

#### Pros

In our use case, the critical part of the implementation was to bring community experience inside our pre-existing mobile app. Thanks to the modularity and comprehensive API offered by Tribe, we were able to build a community experience complete with an activity feed, posting capability, and networking inside the mobile app.

#### Cons

There were a couple of missing parameters and endpoints in the API documentation. However, based on our request, team Tribe helped us with the API-based deployment and updated the documentation.

#### Reasons for choosing Bettermode

The comprehensiveness of the API, modularity, and the ability to customize the community experience.

#### Vendor response

Hi Harriet, We're delighted that our approach for the community platform helped you add social experience inside the mobile app. That's the beauty of Tribe -- designed to integrate into products and sites. We'll continue to improve our API and documentation.

We needed a better place then Facebook for our community to gather. Tribe with it's topic and channel functionality and flexibility in customization was the obvious choice for us. That and the team behind it is full of rockstars!

The flexibility of the platform is great. When it comes to content structure or design, you can get creative. I also really enjoy the additional apps available on the app store as well as the amazing team behind Tribe. The team is super responsive and great in thinking along.

#### Cons

I wish there was a better build in analytics tool. However, with their webhooks, api and integrations with some tools like Amplitude they do give good alternative solutions for this.

#### Reasons for choosing Bettermode

Price and quality was the best combination for us. It ticked all the necessary boxes with features and communication with their team felt the best.

### Loving Tribe!

#### Pros

Tribe is an amazing platform, and I'm so glad that I discovered it. I've been able to create a beautiful portal for the members of The Queen Klass and so far everyone is loving the experience! I'm excited to see what new and interesting features become available! Great work and many thanks to the Tribe team!

#### Cons

Some of the features that I would like needs me to upgrade to a higher tier, which I'm not ready to do as yet. And there isn't an ability to go live on the platform. Or have a plugin to facilitate this.

#### Reasons for choosing Bettermode

I loved the simplicity of the product, and that I could connect it to what I was already doing. So I could keep my existing payment gateway instead of having to utilize theirs. Also love that this is a Canadian tech company!

#### Vendor response

Hi Nadine, Thanks for your kind words. Love that you were able to launch a modern community to connect your audiences. Livestreaming is a popular request. Currently, our customers are using the live streaming functionality of Zoom, Facebook, and YouTube and embedding the same in the community. That said, we'd have a much better solution for this in 2021 (Q2). Best, Team Tribe

### Easy community platform

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

Since using Tribe, I've found that the platform is easy to use and fairly intuitive. The things I haven't been able to figure out, I've been able to find really quickly through Tribe's own community page. This, by far, has been one of the easiest investments and exciting platforms I've used to date.

#### Cons

Limited chat feature, although there is a Telegram integration that works well.

#### Reasons for choosing Bettermode

Cost, ease of use, and they don't bombard me with daily emails and upsells everyday.

#### Vendor response

Hi Jim, Thanks for the feedback. Glad to see that you found the platform intuitive and easy-to-use! Regarding chat feature - we're releasing the real-time chat feature by the end of this month. We look forward to serving you.

### The Best for Engaging with Coworkers

I enjoy it. I use it almost daily. Employee Engagement is a huge factor for our organization. The best part of our organization is its people and our strong teams. It was essential for us to find a way to keep our positive culture moving in the right direction when the pandemic hit, and this has been the perfect space for us.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

It is intuitive and easy to use. People enjoy using it because it reads like a familiar social media platform while protecting their private social media accounts from there professional circles. Our organization's Social Committee was looking for a platform that would help us to stay virtually connected with our coworkers at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. We needed something that would be interactive and read like a Facebook page or another social media platform, but without the hassle of sharing your social media with your coworkers when it might contain some personal information. Tribe has been the perfect outlet for this. It allows us to post funny memes, keep conversations going and even set up events like contests, "questions of the day" and host theme days with our coworkers -- which keeps all of us in touch with the fun work culture of our organization. The best part, is you are starting with a clean profile template that is not connected to other social media platforms, and can stay as professional or casual as it needs to be. We love tribe and definitely intend to continue using it! I recommend for any organization that is having difficulty keeping employee engagement open in these unprecedented times.

#### Cons

It would be nice to have more options to upload photos on regular posts. Right now it seems like we can only upload them in the "Discussion Thread" format. Other than that, it's really fantastic. Wouldn't change a thing!

#### Reasons for choosing Bettermode

The lack of association with personal social media accounts

#### Pros

I really love Tribe. It’s a perfect and independent group you can build so easily. I’m totally fan of the UI/UX of Tribe, really intuitive and easy to use. I can only recommend it to anyone willing to create and grow a community or an audience away from facebook, Slack or Discord. It offers advantages of each of them without the disadvantages.

#### Cons

Maybe the difficulty to clarify differences with quick topics, questions, articles and discussion for my users. Sometimes they publish in one way and should have been in another way. I would like to have the ability to modify that.

Simply focus on what you would want to achieve based on your business goals. For example, keep the Question and Answer module at the center if you want to foster discussions. Talk to Tribe's community management team; they have some of the most practical suggestions for improvement.

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

We are from financial services domain (loans and mortgages to be specific) and were in search for a software solution to create customer community where we can give access to a useful pool of content and allow them to ask questions, submit answers, connect with each other and have intimate discussions in subgroups. Tribe offered all of these with an easy to use interface and we were able to go live within a week that included moderate customization of the platform.

#### Cons

It could still improve in terms of more features such as community event creation and management. But, perhaps feature development is an ongoing task and they would get to it eventually.

It's been such a joy to connect with each other through Tribe not just professionally, but also personally with the features Tribe offers to join different subgroups within the portal.

Absolutely AWESOME platform.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

Ease of use and set up. Easy navigation. The community members love it.

#### Cons

I can't think of anything that it is missing at this time.

#### Reasons for choosing Bettermode

Tribe has been a lifesaver for our community. We started out using the Wix mobile app to create our community but sooner discovered glitch upon glitch. Slow load times, too many "down times" and lack of customer service caused many of our members to become inactive. Upon switching to Tribe, all of that changed. The platform is AMAZING. Our community is growing again and the feedback we have received from our members has been nothing but positive. Awesome work Tribe! Keep it up!

#### Pros

I am loving the Tribe platform. It’s been really easy to set up. I’ve also really enjoyed how easy it is to integrate notifications to Slack so we can keep up with what’s happening on the Community pages at all times.

#### Cons

There are new features that could be added but this is the same with all software and I believe as this product grows it's going to be amazing.

#### Vendor response

Hi Celia, Thanks for investing time in writing this review. Appreciate it! Slack is definitely a powerful integration that helps both your internal team and community members stay updated with community activities. 2021 is an exciting year for Tribe -- We'll be releasing amazing features, apps, and integrations as we move forward. Best, Team Tribe

### Great customer service, great product

- Company size: 501-1000 employees
- Product usage: Used weekly for less than 6 months

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

The interface is user friendly - it can stand alone but also reminds you of other products out there (like Facebook groups, etc.) - so it offers the client/customer familiarity. This is what we were going for. We also really like the team/customer support; they are ready and willing to help us whenever we have questions or comments. They have taken our feedback seriously - and some of our suggestions are actually on the roadmap.

#### Cons

There were some instances where the features/functionality didn't quite meet our needs (because we are working with an unique population) - but Tribe.so was able to address these for us.

#### Vendor response

Hi Rachel, Truly appreciate your honest feedback; your suggestions are helping us improve Tribe platform. Our team has already started with our signature Tribal dance as I write this. We're so happy to see that our effort to democratize community building in a user-friendly manner is working out well. We understand that you have a unique audience, but we're fully committed to work with you and help in any way possible. Regards, Team Tribe
