What used to take up a monumental amount of manual hours for moderators on our payroll has pretty much solved by the OpenWeb platform. Really happy with the product and the team has been a delight to work with. Highly recommended.

Avoid OpenWeb if you can *OpenWeb bogs system memory * OpenWeb bogs system performance * OpenWeb makes broadband feel like dial up * On pages where OpenWeb editing is enabled, it usually requires multiple attempts to edit, or, you have to delete the comment and post it as a new one, but deleting the comment usually takes more than 1 attempt If you're considering using OpenWeb on your site, visit a busy site like Fox News and try it out on their top stories, you'll see how horrible it is. OpenWeb may be pervasive, but not sure why, there has to be better performing alternatives.

Pros and Cons, mostly Pros I spend a lot of my time arguing politics online. Yes, I realize that's pathetic. Anyway, OpenWeb is my favorite comment engine so far. The inline editing and ease of following the conversations are superior to both Disqus and LiveFyre. The email links bring you straight to the relevant comment and and open editing window so that you can write your reply quickly. Selecting text brings up a pop-up menu that allows you to change font effects (bold/italic, etc), which is much better than any existing product. My only complaint is that you can't write a reply email and have it automatically post to the site. That would obviously reduce traffic on the client website so it won't be implemented by any comment engine. ever. But it would be nice.

The modern day STASI 3 weeks ago (early July 2023) I sent an email to OpenWeb that my response to an article on yahoo, asking why was rejected? I have never received a response back. I made sure the email address was correct, by a few searches on the internet. So, the bottom line after reading other posts on Trustpilot, that they're like the old Stasi. Nothing I wrote was hateful or disturbing, It was a climate change, and wildfires, and I posted the forest service web site form the US government website. Maintaining, and control burning and keeping the area fire proof as much as possible, and most fires started with arsonists with facts that I added. I guess facts don't matter living in 1984.

Why? My comment on yahoo was rejected by OpenWeb. The comment was "Why?" No kidding. That was all I said.
