The tool I was dreaming of

5,0 mês passado Novo

Comentários: It is the tool to carry out a project that I have been working on for many years so that the professionals and businesses in my city can make themselves known and generate solid relationships.

Vantagens:

Simplicity, precision and multiple options

really good directory and membersite

5,0 há 2 semanas Novo

Comentários: The Customer Support is timely and on point, the learning videos are good. The knowledge-base and AI Chat bot could do a little more, but - yes, I like this tool.

Vantagens:

It is a versatile, full-fledged Member Site. In many ways it outpaces current solutions on the web.

Desvantagens:

The almost necessary Add-ons have the potential to over inflate your costs

NO SOURCE CODE

3,0 há 7 anos

Comentários: None. Waste of money.

Vantagens:

Lots of features. Their salesmen are good at telling you all the things you want to hear. After your payment clears the bank, you learn the truth about the limitations.

Desvantagens:

Their claim to provide the source code is BS. Regardless of what they tell you, they limit access to the source code and you will spend a lot of money trying to customize the system. I believe they limit access, so they can sell you Customization Hours. The designs are way outdated and customizing is very limited. Look deeper at their examples. We fell for the initial purchase and then a follow up email for another license for super cheap, so before I could get into customizing their product, I owned two licenses (and still do, for sale by the way). On the surface, BD appears to be perfect. It is great as long as you don't need unlimited access to the code or REALLY need to customize it (not talking about changing colors). You decide.

The All-in-One Platform for Directories and Membership Management

5,0 há 3 meses

Comentários: I am just beginning to use BD, having switched from another membership management platform because BD’s UI is much simpler, better, and more intuitive for me. From the very start, BD impresses with a user-friendly interface that appeals to both beginners and experienced users. The platform’s adaptability is particularly attractive: with access to CSS and HTML, custom designs and features can be easily implemented.
In conclusion, Brilliant Directories offers a comprehensive and powerful solution for anyone looking to build and manage a dynamic online directory. The platform combines functionality, adaptability, and user-friendliness in one package and is therefore highly recommended.

Vantagens:

A significant advantage of BD is its versatility. In addition to managing directories, the platform offers comprehensive solutions for setting up private, paid membership areas and hosting video courses. The ability to restrict content based on membership levels provides real added value and facilitates targeted monetization. Another plus is the seamless integration of Google authentication, which enhances both security and user-friendliness. The integrated AI bot system effectively assists in answering questions, reducing the need for direct customer support. Not to be overlooked is the active Facebook community, which is a valuable resource for tips and strategies. The platform also excels in areas such as SEO optimization, payment processing, and member management. Particularly noteworthy are the extensive search and filtering options, which allow for easy management and highlighting of members. The ability to link detailed statistics with Google Analytics offers deep insights into the directory’s performance.

Desvantagens:

Currently, I haven't found many things that I didn't like. The UI/design could be a bit more modern in some places. The biggest "negative" point for me is the many premium feature add-ons, which require additional payment (annual fee). Basically, many features are already included and BD can be used without any additional premium add-ons = but some add-ons should be included additionally, e.g. coupon codes, free trial period, one-click FB or Google login...

Turnkey membership portal

5,0 mês passado Novo

Comentários: From the moment I signed up, I was impressed with the intuitive interface. The setup process was straightforward, guiding me step by step in creating a professional-looking site, all without the need for any coding knowledge. This is a true game-changer for those who may feel overwhelmed by technology but want to achieve a polished and functional website. The tool is a mature product. If you want a membership website up and running quickly, I highly recommend it to anyone. Along with CNAME, it is truly a great product, and you can’t beat the lifetime license pricing.

Vantagens:

Customization. One of the standout features is its robust customization options. I can tailor my directory to match my brand’s aesthetic perfectly. The membership capabilities are outstanding. The tool offers excellent management functionalities that cater to my needs. With that said, don’t let the customization process turn you off. It is a plus!

Desvantagens:

Customization. For those who don't like to tinker too much, the ability to customize their site may sound daunting initially, but don't fret—you will get there.

Brilliant Directories, overwhelming at first, but becoming more brilliant the more I use it.

5,0 há 4 semanas Novo

Comentários: My overall experience is good, at first it's a bit overwhelming. For some basic stuff, you have the video's to get you started. Then I struggled somewhat with certain things but discovered the helpbot which made at easy to find what I was looking for. Still setting up and looking how I can use BD to the max.

Vantagens:

It's a very complete platform with many options. Still discovering the details at this point. I've been using the helpbot and that was very helpful to quickly find what I was looking for.

Desvantagens:

The thing I'm missing the most for my use case is a real multilanguage system where the end user can select the choose language that you want. Maybe I will give the auto translation a try, but actually would like a system where I can fill the translations in the back-end.

If You Demand the Best - Look No Further

5,0 há 4 anos

Comentários: AS far as a business relationship goes, I have never been treated more professionally by any other company that I have dealt with online. I feel appreciated, respected, and valued as a long-time customer. The integrity of everyone that I have dealt with over the years is beyond reproach. The personal attention I always receive and effort put forth to do the best they can by their clients is unsurpassed. I cannot speak highly enough about their complete professionalism.

Vantagens:

My directories have become the backbone of my business. The years that I have invested in learning how to maximize the constantly growing list of features and expanded capabilities have made my investment in the BD platform one of the most solid business decisions I have ever made in my inline career. Knowing that my search for the perfect platform to use as a foundation on which to build my business has allowed me to grow and prosper in a fiercely competitive marketplace.

Desvantagens:

The inability to build high-end landing pages that render beautifully in mobile view. While there have been improvements in this area, there is still a long way to go. I hope capability gets serious attention in the new year.

I Didn’t Think It Could Be Done – How Wrong I Was

5,0 há 3 anos

Comentários: Some of my previous directory software had some features but were either not very well supported, were not reliable or were out of date. Brilliant Directories look after and update every single feature-packed section of their platform which is very encouraging. Support is very fast and knowledable.

Vantagens:

I’ve been ‘looking’ at running a directory for some time now. Using Wordpress, JVZoo and Warrior Plus products and services but NONE have given a satisfactory result. My local community enjoyed my local website for a number of years but it never really turned into something I was planning to do with it. Other directories I’ve managed suffered from lack of support or even the vendors going out of business. So, I needed a format from a vendor I could trust that had first class support in place, a reliable website with an engine that was updated regularly and, also, had to be easy to use. I didn’t think it could be done but, how wrong I was … enter Brilliant Directories. Absolutely everything one could wish for seemed to be included in their offering. Getting started was a breeze as everything is laid out in a sensible order with help every step of the way via text documents with images and or short training videos. I needed to contact support on occasions and they got back to me in a timely manner which did impress me. I now have a clear roadmap to how I can monetise all the features that Brilliant Directories brings to the table. Yes, it’s a big deal to get from starting to the finished article and it won’t be done overnight but, the way everything is presented inside each directory makes it so straightforward and intuitive that any of the usual roadblocks are simply not there. I’m pleased that I came across this software (and the vendor as their track record has b

Desvantagens:

Some features are niggly to set up but not because of Brilliant Directories but places like the Google developers section and Facebook Apps which are very complex for a non-techie person. However Brilliant Directories had text and image help files and videos on each step so softened the frustration. Also, support were able to step in to help very quickly.

My favorite straight-out-of-the-box membership directory builder!

5,0 há 2 anos

Comentários: It has been my favorite SaaS purchase all year. Worth every single penny, and I feel confident that this company is going places!

Vantagens:

Candidly, the training videos and support team has always been so helpful and detailed. Where most software tutorial videos end up being insanely long and boring, Brilliant Directories nails it with a great library of FAQs, pipelines for setting up and configuring your website, and a Youtube library of webinar replays that give you ideas how to incentivize upgrades. A close second is, of course, the powerful website builder itself. The whitelabel functions are not obnoxious and you can customize nearly all colors and pages to your liking.

Desvantagens:

So far I am so excited about the items on the roadmap for Brilliant Directories. My only complaint would be the learning curse for beginning to conceptualize the feature trees for members and how each member can tag themselves to be listed in different sub- or sub-sub-categories. I am still practicing, but with many preview tests, it is very evident how unlimited the possibilities are.

Over the Top Support

5,0 há 3 anos

Comentários: This particular review is focused on the support from the people at Brilliant Directories versus the product itself (which is excellent!!). All of my interactions have been positive and I have received the help I've needed at the time. From my initial contact with the company via [SENSITIVE CONTENT] initially as well as his help in the last few days, the assistance has been excellent. The support team has been very responsive in my experiences with them, when I have had questions about how to do something, or when I have wanted to know "if" I could do something. Their willingness to go beyond has been over the top for me. That doesn't often occur these days and I am thankful.

Vantagens:

Ease of use to get up and running in a short amount of time with the basics for adding members. Fine-tuning does take more time to get into, but is expected. The better prepared and organized you are before getting started, the better.

Desvantagens:

There is a learning curve to refine what is needed on a long-term basis, but that is to be expected with going to any new platform. It depends a lot on your model and what you are wanting to do. The upside is that the support and the community are very helpful as you build out your directory, which is very welcomed especially when you are new and maybe not as sure where you are headed with your business.

Love it for two big reasons!

5,0 há 4 anos

Comentários: Loving it and loved the service. Super quick and responsive service.

Vantagens:

There were two reasons I bought Brilliant Directories within hours of discovering it! Firstly, the software itself was far better than any other directory I had found by far (including the horrible experience of trying to build one on Wordpress with ListingPro). Secondly, the service. [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN]called me within minutes of my inquiry and patiently walked me through the platform. She was super clear and very helpful and I "walked" away with 3 licenses!

Desvantagens:

Nothing yet - I am still building it but it's clear to me that is is excellent.

These guys are truly passionate about letting normal people own productive and customisable websites

5,0 há 6 anos

Comentários: I managed to create a website which allows me to work from home and make some extra money to help with the bills. I created a top-notch website with no knowledge of programming or coding, thanks to the great work done behind the scenes by everyone involved with Brilliant Directories. They are truly passionate about their work, and it shows.

Vantagens:

My previous website built by another company started falling to pieces due to the fact that the programmers wanted to charge me an arm and a leg for every comma or full stop I needed to add. I could not do any alterations myself, even though they had promised that I would own the code. In the end, I lost all my google rankings and it became ineffective. I was about to lose all my members and 3 years of hard work. I am so glad that after some research, I found this great company who ticked all the boxes of my requirements. First, I wanted to be able to customise all the site pages. Not just the design features. I needed to be able to create new customised pages, in order to allow me to develop my original concept. As well, I wanted this flexibility to be able to keep the website relevant as time went by. Secondly, I wanted to have a support team which is expert and dedicated to this site. The main clincher is that the support is included for free with the package you buy, and not charged separately for every minor issue one will invariably encounter along the way. The exception to this is when you need to do some major changes which will affect the whole system. The job you require is quoted by select programmers, who do a great job. The forte of brilliant directories is their amazing documentation, video tutorials and the Webinar Wednesdays. Go through these and you can learn how to manage your site inside and out. They hold nothing back. Cannot thank them enough.

Desvantagens:

Even though Brilliant Directories offer website templates for most types of businesses, varying from Yellow pages type, to Real Estate to Events to Jobs, if you have a website concept that doesn't fit exactly into a template, then you need to do some customisation. For this you need to pay extra. The learning curve increases the more different your concept varies from the templates. There are so many possibilities with this software, that you can never really master it all, especially if you have no coding knowledge like myself. However, considering the low entry fee, and that most businesses are covered by the templates, then the chance of any major software customisation you might need are minimal. Anyway, to their credit, they are constantly updating the basic structure with new functions and this is decreasing the need of customisation.

Reliable Support and Well-Developed, but Limited Design Options

5,0 há 3 meses

Comentários: Overall, BrilliantDirectories combines solid experience with excellent support, making it a top choice for anyone needing a dependable directory management solution, despite a few minor drawbacks.

Vantagens:

've been using BrilliantDirectories for quite some time, and I have to say, it's an impressive piece of software. You can tell it's been around for a while because it's really well-developed and reliable. One of the best things about it is the support. Their chatbot is super smart and helps me get quick and efficient answers. I love that I don't have to wait days for a response; it makes a huge difference in getting things done smoothly.

Desvantagens:

However, there are a couple of downsides. The selection of themes is somewhat limited, which can be a bit restricting if you're looking for something specific. Additionally, it takes some time to design the website to your liking, so be prepared to invest a bit of effort upfront.

Brilliant Directories is hidden gold in a world of unique platforms

5,0 há 3 meses

Comentários: My experience with Brilliant Directories has been a pleasant one because I knew what I was getting into. I studied the platform prior to committing any dollars to it. I took it out for a test drive with a trial. I watched the interaction in their Facebook group. Once I jumped in I knew that it would take time to build and I prepared my mind for that. Now that I know what It can do I really want to customize it more so now I need to slow down and learn some of the advanced areas. I really love working in this tool and the tech support is second to none.

Vantagens:

I think what I liked most about using a tool like Brilliant Directories is the range that it presents. You can make it as small or as large as you want it to be. If you want to do a small site you can if you want to run a massive site you can do that as well.

Desvantagens:

I think what I like least is the way it is structured or broken out. It is not a con per se, but if you are a starter in building directories it can be overwhelming and that is not a bad thing it's just once you jump into the Brilliant Directories pool you better make darn sure you can swim or willing to put in the time to learn how to swim in that ocean. I think they should give you some type of bumpers like in bowling when you are just learning. They just give you keys to fancy million dollar car and let you go. Which is nice, but can scare people who are novices

Build a Directory without Coding

4,0 há 2 anos

Comentários: The overall experience using Brilliant Directories is good despite some limitations

Vantagens:

Brilliant Directories makes it effortless to launch a directory business easily. Its vast array of templates can cater to your specific business requirements. Customizing site pages to fit our needs has never been easier, thanks to Brilliant Directories. Their exceptional support team is always available, and they also offer webinars and tutorials to help you manage your sites. The user-friendly interface features drag and drop functionality for most website settings.

Desvantagens:

The designs and UI aspects seem outdated, and there are limitations in terms of customization. Additionally, upgrading to some desired features can be expensive.

Brilliant and Caring!!!!

5,0 há 8 anos

Comentários: I'm grateful that I found brilliant directories, the fact that the support team is so patient, understanding, and eager to help my business grow is amazing. I feel like I not only found a great product, but I'm a part of a business family that's down to earth, and genuinely want my business to be successful. I'll never forget what Jason did for me, for anyone to take the time to give valuable help and advice at no cost says a lot to me about that person's character. I'm just so thankful to have found a company that's not all about just making a quick buck off of you, but that really wants to see your business succeed. Thank you so much Jason, and the entire support team, you guys are AWESOME!!!!!

Vantagens:

I like most about this product is the ease of the video tutorials, and the prompt response from the support teams, they really helped me set up my directory with minimal stress.

Desvantagens:

I don't like that I'm not able to understand the development side of the software. Things that I'd like to implement into my site I'm not able to, because I don't know how to read codes, and scripts.

My opinion of Brilliant Directories

5,0 há 10 anos

Comentários: I would like to share my brief opinion of Brilliant Directories Our team have looked into many directory softwares before we decided on BD. We are experts in WordPress sites and have created and still run a number of WordPress based directories We have purchased 3 FULL licenses from BD as we fully believe this is the best directory software available. BD is 99% ready to go live from the very start, many sites will be able to signup, watch the videos, do some basic changes and off they go. It is the closest directory software thats ready to go straight from off the shelf. We are trying to create directory sites that function slightly different to the majority of directory sites out there, so we are undertaking many customisations in the looks and design and the way it functions. Our development team have found the structure of the BD backend, the access to certain functions and code, is amazingly simple and easy. The more we play around with the system and the code, the more we appreciate what the Brilliant Directory team have created. On the surface the BD admin area is basic. However looking at it in more details you will find that theres a whole world of tweaks, changes and edits that are possible. The system appears to be rock solid, and even when we think we are pushing the system to its limits with code changes, it always functions well. We are extremely happy with our purchase of the FULL licenses, and we have no doubt we will be able to create the perfect directory sites we are aiming to achieve. The only negative we need to make is that we are based in different time zones from the BD team so when we ask a question, we are always a day late in getting a response even if responded by the BD team that same day. I think if the BD team can improve their support reply time scale then the service will be not far from perfect in our opinion I hope that this helps people in some way, and gives some idea of our experience BD team, you guys are nearly there, keep improving the system (as we see you do) and customer service side of things and we think you will go far as a business. Looking forward to launching our sites and creating our directory businesses with you guys.

Brilliant Directories Software Review

4,0 há 8 anos

Comentários: This software is good in terms of functionality as it manages subscriptions nicely and wraps the directory functionality into one. However, the user interface is pretty confusing. It takes a long time to figure out how all of the pieces are connected (i.e. where links are stored, how to change forms, how the forms connect with widgets etc.) The UI and the flow could be more user friendly and obvious. Perhaps there should be an overview about how all of the pieces of the website link up to each other. Once you figure out how to use the tools, it requires jumping between many different components to implement a simple change, so it is a bit clunky. Additionally, you really need significant coding experience to customize. I.e. Part of the reason we purchased this software was because it had many of the features we need, and in particular I was told pre-purchase that there was a way to create different types of users (i.e. a general user, A listing user, a non-listing user) and that I could also customize what they each see in their profile. In reality however, in order to customize what each sees in their profile, you need to custom code, which I wasn't aware of....Overall the software includes great functionality for running a site and managing subscriptions but could be more user friendly.

Resposta do Brilliant Directories

há 8 anos

Hey Tali, thanks for the feedback! There definitely are a lot of options included in the Brilliant Directories platform. Our Quick Start Video series (available right in your admin dashboard) lays out a good starting point for basic setup of a website. We also have our Support Center with hundreds of searchable support documents as well as our community forum which our support team monitors. Regarding customizations, there are many built-in options for you to configure when it comes setting up your membership levels and what your different members have access to. Some more intense customizations do require some coding, but many changes can be made via the built-in point-and-click options. Your feedback is incredibly helpful to us and we will absolutely use it to improve our platform in the future. Thank you!

Flexible

5,0 há 4 anos

Comentários: I am greatful.i found them. They are professional and have excellent technology that fits my needs. Their platform allows for users to monetize it and Brilliant Directories is not counting my potential revenue. They come from a solution approach.

Vantagens:

The software is practical and done logically for my everyday business needs. There are so many tools available to help a business owner leverage their online exposure with built in help

Desvantagens:

There is so much this does and I have not explored all features. I am hoping to find a feature that allows users to build a network of local businesses and share their network with other users. I would define users as internal and external. Internal are users within the directory that utilize the directory to promote their business where external customers use the directory to search.. if I am a Realtor and have 50 internal customers I am constantly sharing with buyers and seller who are external customers.. I would like to leverage the directory where external customers would get my list of internal customers..

Awesome Product Im Glad I Found It

5,0 há 3 meses

Comentários: I would say that my overall experience with Brilliant Directories is 4.5 stars only because i failed to manage my expectations.

Vantagens:

I enjoy knowing that I do not have to create all those automatic email forms, or the privacy policy, terms and conditions. For the most part all you have to do is add a title for your site, the logo, categories and subcategories. The site is clean in design and the best part is that it is already mobile friendly (that alone is a relief) Now, I have used some AI chat bots in my time but the one that is on the admin site is freaking awesome and by far the best I have ever dealt with, so my hats are off to whoever is the mastermind behind that thing. A very well trained AI Chat Bot!

Desvantagens:

I am a a novice website designer and I had some issues with were to start and what the next steps were. BD does a good job at providing training but does not make as easy as I assumed it should be to paint by the numbers. I was expecting a step by step guide illustrating what to do and how to do it. Now dont get this wrong, I found out how to do what I needed to do but it was not without some fustration.

Very Useful Platform for a Directory Startup

5,0 há 6 anos

Comentários: We could never have gotten our directory up and running with Brilliant Directories, or something like it.

Vantagens:

Brilliant Directories offers all of the features that any directory needs. It's easy to add options such as: coupons, photos, videos, and blogs, as well as different membership levels. Importing and exporting data is also quite simple.

Desvantagens:

By necessity, this software is quite complex. This isn't a flaw - it's just the way a quality directory is. It takes time to learn everything that you need to know to get a directory up and running. Consequently, I recommend starting out with a very specific market niche, and a limited number of features. "Bells and whistles" can later be introduced as upgrades.
