GBLimited to what you can accomplish without a developer While I enjoy many of the features of BuddyBoss, it is severely lacking in what should be the most basic of features. For example, using conditional fields for user registration fails for even the most basic of uses. If you need fields that are required but conditionally hidden, BuddyBoss can't handle that. For example, if you answer "yes" to having children, you must answer the required field, "how many children". If you answer "no" to having children, you won't be able to submit the form as BuddyBoss is requiring you to fill out a hidden field. I needed to hide profile types from other profile types within the BB network, but BuddyBoss doesn't support this. I wanted to exclude status updates (i.e. activity feeds) for specific profile types, but BuddyBoss doesn't support this. For example, someone has a profile type "student" but you only want the student to see updates from "teachers" and not other students. I wanted to show user emails on profiles but BuddyBoss doesn't support that. I've reached out to BuddyBoss support on multiple occasions to get work arounds for these issues, but have never received support that fully solves the problem. BB support is ok if you are wanting basic help, but if you need a slight modification, they will let you know that this is a "customization" and not supported. I've had to utilize so many third party plugins just to get BuddyBoss to do what should be basic functions. This product has great potential but the lack of help from support is disappointing. Perhaps consider investing in BuddyBoss if you have a very simple application or if you have a trusted developer (and you've got deep pockets).

GBLove our BuddyBoss Groups! Our community site uses BuddyBoss Groups. For posting messages and images and giving likes and comments it's great for us! The system sends users an email when someone responds to their post, which is overwhelmingly appreciated but they can also unsubscribe.

GBGreat support people Great support people. Very attentive and helpful and quick to respond. We launched a new community site that includes an app. This was a major first-time undertaking for us, and we couldn't have done it without the expertise and patience determination we found in the support team at Buddyboss. These guys and gals are good!

GBImpressed by the support Fantastic. Rezwan reassured me that he understood the issue I was having and stayed with it till the end. Impressed by the clarity of explanation about what was happening and why. Have never raised a ticket with buddy boss before and I was impressed with the support I got.
