"It has been a delight to be introduced to Tribe"
What do you like best about Bettermode?

I was looking for an alternative to Facebook for our networked community to interact in a modern intuitive environment to replace cumbersome BuddyPress and I think we have found just what we want with tribe.co. Learning curve is not too steep and support appears to be excellent.

What do you dislike about Bettermode?

SSO option only available with most expensive subscription.

What problems is Bettermode solving and how is that benefiting you?

Currently moving to own domain. Users are already interacting in a way they did not with previous groups and forums.

"Great platform, great flexibility"
What do you like best about Bettermode?

Tribe is a powerful, highly scalable and flexible platform for almost any community of people who want to connect around a shared purpose. The tools are simple, intuitive and beautifully designed. We are running a closed, subscription based group mentoring community, and it has been a fantastic fit for our needs.

What do you dislike about Bettermode?

No integrated messaging platform and badly working Telegram integration.

What problems is Bettermode solving and how is that benefiting you?

An easy way to bring together a closed community of users to share in a learning experience and keep regular contact. And to build up a database of knowledge.

"Perfect for building an engaged community"
What do you like best about Bettermode?

Tribe is extremely easy to set up and the design is intuitive for admin and for users alike. It's ideal for taking away the uncertainty from hosting a community on a common platform like Facebook Groups. Engagement is high because the platform prompts it at optimum times.

What do you dislike about Bettermode?

The only negative at the moment (with 6 months of usage) is that there is a tiny delay when you tap on buttons such as 'like' and 'comment'. It's very minimal though. Otherwise the site runs quickly and perfectly.

What problems is Bettermode solving and how is that benefiting you?

Taking our community off of Facebook Groups means that our users aren't distracted with the other features they use Facebook for. It means that the members of our community are solely there to interact with us.

"Tribe - An Excellent Forum Platform and a Great Company to Work With"
What do you like best about Bettermode?

Tribe offers a robust API with many plug and play options for integration. The ability to customize it, style it to suit your brand, and embed it's native functionality makes it an excellent platform with which to provide your community a forum-based social environment. Plus, Tribe is a platform that is constantly rolling out new and great features. Their staff are knowledgeable, competent, extremely responsive, supportive and very cooperative. They've always been there when we've needed them to help make our integration successful. They're a great company to work with.

What do you dislike about Bettermode?

So far our experience with the Tribe team and platform has been nothing but positive.

What problems is Bettermode solving and how is that benefiting you?

Using Tribe we are solving the need to provide user communities in our system with the ability to communicate in a forum-based social environment. Integrating Tribe enabled us to deliver this functionality sooner and with fewer resources than by rolling our own.

"Community Management Made a Breeze"
What do you like best about Bettermode?

Being a small startup the idea of setting up or building something for an online community management was a huge issue for us. Luckily came across Tribe and this seems to have been the easiest way to get started with a very flexible solution. Will be setting up further integrations and look forward to growing our community on Tribe in the coming months.

What do you dislike about Bettermode?

Would have liked the SSO in Plus plan or option to buy it for a slight premium.

What problems is Bettermode solving and how is that benefiting you?

Tribe has helped us in building an online community for our Healthcare Startup.

"Our community of teachers has improved with Tribe."
What do you like best about Bettermode?

We use Tribe at https://comunidad.gedu.es as a collaborative social environment between teachers in Spain. We are more than 1800 teachers in this professional community. The best thing for me is that there is a ranking that encourages community members to contribute.

What do you dislike about Bettermode?

I would like a smartphone app to be launched

What problems is Bettermode solving and how is that benefiting you?

Our use of Tribe is to share knowledge, and the way we can ask questions and track responses is a huge improvement over the Google Plus communities where we came from. It has also helped us a lot to be able to use topics to group the knowledge and contributions of community members. This saves us time and facilitates moderation.

"A visionary company with a rock-solid community app"
What do you like best about Bettermode?

The support is excellent and the application interface is very easy to use

What do you dislike about Bettermode?

Up to now I haven't faced with any issue

What problems is Bettermode solving and how is that benefiting you?

The first and foremost problem I am solving with Tribe Community Platform is the expensive development fees and hosting fees needed to run a similar platform. Since Tribe.so provides the community platform as a service, I don't have to deal with coding, hosting, CDN and email providers. It is a turn-key solution

"Perfect for private online community and to reduce support team work"
What do you like best about Bettermode?

I like everything about Tribe community. You can do so many things from customers support to your business community and marketing. We have bought Tribe with many idea in head for our marketplace users. The first idea was to create our VIP community where users can ask questions to others and get support from the others. After setup our account we have seen so much more opportunities

What do you dislike about Bettermode?

The language localization was an issue for me. But the team is working on it.

What problems is Bettermode solving and how is that benefiting you?

A good alternative of Facebook for private online community. It's Perfect for private online community and to reduce support team work

"Why I Love Tribes"
What do you like best about Bettermode?

The ease with which you can set things up. When I first got started with Tribes, I was concerned that making the transition from facebook to Tribes would be a difficult one. But with the resources and guidance provided by Tribes it was very easy for me to move my audience.

What do you dislike about Bettermode?

To be honest nothing at this point. I haven't had any reason to complain since I started using Tribes.

What problems is Bettermode solving and how is that benefiting you?

Tribes gives me an opportunity to create a community for my members on a platform without any distractions. Because it's outside facebook I'm now able to attrcat people I would otherwise have lost simply because they do not want to be on facebook

"Helpful and quick!"
What do you like best about Bettermode?

Tribe is always helpful every time we have a support request or even just a question on how to best utilize the platform. And the rapid responses are awesome! We are often trying to serve our customers in the group, and we need to be able to do that quickly! Thank you!

What do you dislike about Bettermode?

No real dislikes! Only thing I could maybe think of is to change the spacing when people answer a question so that it can look less crammed!

What problems is Bettermode solving and how is that benefiting you?

Group communication is so much easier this way! The topic organization and discussion threads are very well put together!

"Deadly useful and intuitive to use"
What do you like best about Bettermode?

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.

What do you dislike about Bettermode?

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.

What problems is Bettermode solving and how is that benefiting you?

I have solved the problems to gather my community on Tribe Platform. They can now discuss, share their thoughts and comment it easily. It also offers theme the possibility to network, that's great !

"One app for all your community needs!"
What do you like best about Bettermode?

We were on the verge of finalizing another tool for our community portal. After I saw Tribe, there was no looking back. Tribe provided us with everything in-house. Implementing Single Sign-On with our product was a breeze. Everything was well documented and we had very little to do with the development efforts. The rich set of integrations provided by Tribe is something that will make this application stand out from others in the crowd. We were able to integrate Tribe with most of the third-party applications we use. In a few days, we had our sleek, responsive, modern, flexible and powerful community portal up and running.

What do you dislike about Bettermode?

There isn't much. The default view that we get along with Tribe is something that can be completely customized. But still, I would see a better default look and feel with less disturbance.

What problems is Bettermode solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am using Tribe as my community portal and as my solution articles gallery. Basically Tribe is helping us a lot with our customer support needs.

"Organic growth is guaranteed"
What do you like best about Bettermode?

Easy setup, no knowledge about the cloud infrastructure is required. Vanity URL, loads of community features, lot of customization, and excellent support community. SEO booster, gamification, welcome email, social logins etc helps to grow the community. Instant notifications to channels like Telegram keeps your community engaged.

What do you dislike about Bettermode?

Needs improvements in terms of third party integrations. No mobile app available yet. Few of the must-have apps are listed under Premium, which is a deal breaker for some. E.g. Slack, Web hooks etc required premium plans.

What problems is Bettermode solving and how is that benefiting you?

I would like to bring my website visitors and YouTube viewers to one platform to learn and share their knowledge about the software testing. Tribe helps me to grow my community stronger and bigger by redirecting them to sign up, engage, share and learn. Common questions being answered by the community and other users gets benefited without asking the same question again.

Easy to use, loads fast, and got a great lifetime deal through AppSumo.

Not much, but would love if it would have more integrations (coming soon though!)

What do you like best about Bettermode?

Tribe Has helped Livelong Digital create an environment for generating new ideas for work and life whilst also fostering a sense of community among our clients which is vital for creating a business that’s profitable and enjoyable.

What do you dislike about Bettermode?

The news feed is chronological. If it was dynamic and shows people what's relevant to them, it will be a 11/10 platform.

What problems is Bettermode solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have now connected well with our audience and they too are finding referrals for their own business.

"Plant your own digital community and customize to any extent"
What do you like best about Bettermode?

Tribe is very customizable not just in terms of changing design elements or merging with the website; developers can use the comprehensive API to build custom solutions on top of the platform.

What do you dislike about Bettermode?

There were small bugs related to the notification system, but the team was quick to fix the issues.

What problems is Bettermode solving and how is that benefiting you?

We're looking to solve two problems with Tribe. The first one is about amplifying the content generation capability by leveraging UGC (user-generated content) and improve brand visibility via SEO. Second is about customer engagement and open up a direct communication line to centralize knowledge sharing.

"Tribe gives you the complete building blocks for a successful community "
What do you like best about Bettermode?

First of all, their success team is obsessively determined to help you succeed (as a business partner). So, big shout out for that! Apart from strong customer support, Tribe's engineering team works hand in hand to deliver any type of customization you need to help you succeed. They are constantly improving and release tons of updates on a regular frequency based on customer feedback. Here are some of the things that I liked the most: - Beautiful design with an AI-based activity feed that strikes a balance between content types and groups. - A polished gamification system. - Social widgets of the community that you can just pick and integrate into your product. That instantly adds community experience with two-way sync. - Targeting users based on certain cohorts with a targeted notification system.

What do you dislike about Bettermode?

I think the email digest feature needs more customizability. As far as I know, that's also work in progress.

What problems is Bettermode solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are using Tribe for a private community of our clients -- primarily to keep them connected to the brand and increase reachability with product collaterals and promotions. Overall, we had an amazing experience by working with such an energetic partner that not only offers a polished community platform but also supports you in growing the same. And not to forget Tribe is great value for money!
