## Reviews

### "Excellent Customer Service and Value-for-money Software" — 5.0/5

> **Keng Y** | *22 October 2021* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Although I didn't know anyone in mooSocial prior to purchasing the software, I felt as if I was given "red carpet" customer service by the company's \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\]. Besides, the software is extremely value-for-money and easy to use.
> 
> **Cons**: There's room for improvement in the aesthetics and UI of the software.
> 
> mooSocial gave me an opportunity to try out a new IT project for a low cost.

### "All the Bells and Whistles\!" — 5.0/5

> **Rich** | *13 February 2020* | Online Media | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The endless possibilities Moosocial provides makes our site an ever growing entity &#10;that let's us give our members new and unique features on a regular basis which keeps the site new and up to date and gives our members new ways to involve themselves in the site and encourages new and older members alike to get involved and in doing so helping us grow\!
> 
> **Cons**: Only thing, which isn't a moo issue, is wishing I had a better understanding of servers, and how they work but am getting there. :)
> 
> When you are looking for a top of the line social networking platform you need&#10;look no further than moosocial. I spent 3 years researching what was available.&#10;At the end of the day I always found myself back on the moosocial site. &#10;&#10;In terms of form and functionality it is unmatched. With dozens of optional plug-ins&#10;offering many unique featurs often never seen on other platform, you can easily &#10;customize your site to just how you imagined while providing a unique and enjoyable&#10;experience for your members that will keep them coming back.&#10;&#10;Support, being new and not familiar with how PHP and dealing with a server, how to&#10;install the software on the server was the only reason I had not purchased Moosocial&#10;much sooner. But after having our site/community hosted on 3 other companies that &#10;cbarged a monthly fee to use their software that they hosted on a server that you &#10;shared with hundreds of other sites it became apparent that this wasn't the way to go &#10;and that we were just paying more for something that didn't even come close to what&#10;COULD be had for much less. Moo's tech support helped me decide on a hosting &#10;solution (Hostico) that was both very reasonable and provided us/our members with a &#10;much faster and stream lined experience. The difference was like night and day.&#10;if I had any questions they were more than willing to help. &#10;&#10;We have watched our member base increase 10 fold in only a short amount of time &#10;not only by word of mouth of our our members but by the numerous

### "Need to monetize" — 3.0/5

> **Dean** | *31 March 2016*
> 
> You will have to wait until your site becomes as good as Facebook to charge membership than again FB doesn't charge membership fee.  They need to build ad management so you can make some money to cover the cost.

### "How easy is it to use Moosocial" — 5.0/5

> **Greg** | *5 April 2024* | Online Media | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The fact that it sets up very easily, but can encounter some problems with the PHP Version on a host.
> 
> **Cons**: NO 24/7 or weekend tech support and it sometimes takes days to get support due to them being in Vietnam and myself in the USA. Plus, the fee for support is rather expensive when all you have is one issue you need an answer to. Support is $49 per month, no exception.
> 
> With the above caveats I've not found any software that does what I want better than Moosocial.

### "A real complete social network platform" — 5.0/5

> **Roberto** | *24 January 2023* | Nonprofit Organisation Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I think moosocial is built using very recent development standards and is well engineered. The availability of plugins makes the product very versatile and easily adaptable to any specific need.
> 
> **Cons**: Of course, as obvious, mosocial doesn't precede all the functionality an organization might need. In any case, precisely because of the correct engineering logic of the product, and through the collaboration of the moosocial team of developers, every custom need is really very simple. The team works using highly professional standards of development and collaboration with the client. Any need to modify the product's functions are easily accessible and with investments that are truly within everyone's reach.
> 
> We have created a totally innovative private social network. An idea that brings communities ever closer in solidarity.
