aMember Pro Reviews

We created a membership site selling coaching and video courses using aMember. Once the site is setup, aMember is great at keeping things going. I'd imagine if you use wordpress and is knowledgeable with building wordpress aMember is great for you. But if you are a no-coder and doesn't want to hire a developer, other SaaS membership/directory/LMS may be a better option. Overall, I'd recommend aMember to a technical person or someone who want a custom solution.

Okay I get it these guys live and work in another time zone!

I have been a customer for about 15 years. I hold many licenses for all the websites I have set up for myself and others over the years.

Program pretty easy to install and get going. Never really had an issue with any of that.

When I first started using this software the support was quick, and they answered support tickets as soon as they got into the office. This was great for me since their start time is my bedtime. I could resolve the issue in 12 - 24 hours by a quick exchange of emails / support tickets. Their coding structure was simple to use and has gotten very complex over the years.

Their forum is pretty dead and the only people trolling over there are looking to get paid. It used to be full of helpful people willing to help.

Over the years they have listened to their customers and added some cool features. However the documentation for the new features are very poorly written or does not explain all the features. Just a quick overview and the rest is I hope the customers can figure it out.

The biggest issue I have had over the years are the themes, matching the look and feel of my website with aMember. The lack of docs on the subject over every version have made it extremely hard to make my own themes without help from their staff.

Not too many people know how to work with aMember and if you do it wrong you will lose your updates when you update your software to a new version. Hire the wrong coder and you are throwing money away.

So what do you do? You put up with their crappy support system that has gotten worse the more people they hire to provide support. If you catch anyone online (skype) they never answer, say they are on vacation, or tell you to open a ticket. When you tell them you have an you need a reply they ignore you.

Go to bed and you will get half of what you need to complete your task at hand. Add to your support ticket give them your ftp access the next night and they will fix it by the time you wake up, if you are lucky. Otherwise it will be a few days of exchanging support tickets.

If you understand php, phtml, css, and have the time to learn aMembers coding system you will be in business. If not I would stay clear of this software unless you want a half finished broke site for days at a time, or the crappy service!

With this software I am able to create a simple, yet incredibly feature rich membership management site selling everything from subscription based products, subscription based services and even online webinars and in-person seminars - all for a fraction of the price it would take to develop a custom solution. This allows me to focus all my energy on customizing the website theme, layout and user experience, saving my customers a LOT of money and allowing me to bid jobs much lower than others while creating a superior product. Not only that, but when complete I can offload support on the aMember company for any project IF I choose to do so.

I use Amember for my ecommerce site. It functions as my shopping cart and affiliate program. I love the fact that I didn't have to purchase a separate affiliate program, and it helps affiliates find their links by logging into one area and not multiple sites.

aMember Pro allows me to effectively and affordably manage multiple subscription style website services.

Amember pro allowed us to connect wordpress, vbulletin and other app to a central membership database.

The product was completely adaptable to our needs. The customer support has been fast and incredibly attentive to our needs.

Nel complesso l'esperienza è stata buona, considerando il fatto che ho usato Amember all'inizio della mia attività di vendita videocorsi e che adesso esistono servizi più economici e poi snello nell'utilizzo.
