Review on BuddyPress by Olajuwon Achille

Revainrating 5 out of 5

BuddyPress is a plugin that allows users to create their own social network within your website.

First off, I love how the software works. It’s great that you can use the software without having to change your theme (themes are the "skin" of a site). It doesn't require coding experience to use and it's super easy to get started. You don't need to install anything else on your website - it will run seamlessly inside the WordPress system.It's also super flexible so if you want to customize the layout and add extra functionality, it's totally possible!BuddyPress has a ton of features including the ability to: create multiple types of profiles (company, family, friends), import existing user accounts, and sync them between computers/tablets/phones. If you're looking to start a community for your business, or simply want to make your website friendlier, BuddyPress is perfect for you!

Pros
  • BuddyPress is extremely powerful and offers many unique features
  • It's not necessary to learn how to code in order to build your own membership sites
Cons
  • It requires an active subscription for full functionality
  • Does not offer the same functionality as premium paid services like Meetup
