WishList is one of the "old school" programs that I learned about when I first got into digital marketing in 2003. I met the original [sensitive content hidden] at one of my first seminars. I like that it is mature software and is run by a company that has been around a long time and likely plans to stay around. It integrates with everything I need and doesn't break my site when it has an update. Even if it doesn't directly integrate with something, I can use Pabbly Connect to expand my options. If you use Wordpress and have more than 10 sites, this is the one you want.
Pros
I was able to transition from using another (also very good) Wordpress membership plugin called Digital Access Pass when I had an opportunity to purchase a 50 site license with WishList Member. I use Wordpress for pretty much everything and this is an easy way for me to add a simple (or more involved) membership portal to any site I want. I can drip content, restrict certain parts of my site, and set up payments. I prefer to use Wordpress and a membership plugin like this to more "all in one" solutions because I like the flexibility to design things exactly the way I want.
Cons
While it is not super complicated, there is a learning curve to it and it's not always clear what to do first if you're not already somewhat familiar with membership software or Wordpress. I kept needing to backtrack because I couldn't progress to the next step without already having some things decided such as membership levels, types of access, etc. I found myself getting frustrated that the tutorial videos were more about the bare basic mechanics of the software and not more helpful to guide me on what elements I should already have in place.
Reasons for Choosing WishList Member
I was able to purchase a 50 site user license with Wishlist Member for less money than a 10 site license with DAP so it made more sense for me since I manage multiple sites and they are all Wordpress.- Industry: Information Technology & Services

All those years using Wishlist Member have been stress free.
We might stumbled upon a bug one time that required support and a plugin update.
Overall our experience has been fantastic. We can't say the same from their competition.
Pros
It just works as you would expect a membership plugin to work with dripping.
No strange bugs with modules released too soon, too late, not released at all, or released when they shouldn't...
This wordpress plugin is seriously and regularly maintained by a trusted team.
Cons
Last time I checked, the API documentation could use an update. You have to patch together an old PDF with articles in the online knowledge base to get all the informations you need to communicate with the plugin and build your own custom logic on the top of it.

Overall, I'm pleased with the service of Wishlist Member, but I have a few thoughts that I hope will be useful feedback.
1. The support is very slow. I submitted a help ticket a couple of days ago and still haven't even been acknowledged. I'm sure they'll get to it, but if this was an urgent problem is would be very frustrating.
2. It's a fairly confusing product to use. I'm never quite sure if I'm doing anything right when I'm working with the settings. Troubleshooting the product is really difficult too because I'm never sure how to even identify which part of the system is the issue.
3. The product is surprisingly lacking in design functionality. I could even figure out how to customize the button for my sales page. Something as simple as editing the text, size, and color of a button shouldn't be complicated for the user.
4. With all of this being said, I think it's a nice alternative to some of the really expensive software for courses out there, but it seems to be overly simplistic.
Hopefully this is helpful!

Pros
I like that it's a cheap alternative to other online course software.
Cons
It's confusing to use and has very limited design functionality.
Also, the support and customer service is extremely lacking.

Thanks for the review. We checked our ticket system. It looks like you submitted a ticket at the end of a work day and there was a follow up first thing the following morning. The reply may have been caught in your spam/junk mail filter. You can also login to the customer center to check tickets directly. We typically answer all tickets within one working day.

Pros
I was in the room when Wishlist was launched and have used it for years. They took care of all the issues people had with Memebership platforms on Wordpress and fixed them. Honestly, I've migrated my membership platform off of Wordpress or I'd still be using it. Technically, I still have some memberships on the old sites using it, and it still works like a charm.I just have my newer stuff on a totally different platform completely.
Cons
I honestly don't have any complaints. When I was actively using it I was always able to get support when needed, but needing it was rare. They built a solid plugin.
