## Reviews

### "Great Community Platform" — 4.0/5

> **Dean** | *4 March 2022* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I really like the idea of Beam.gg being able to be used for both internal company use as well as for public company use. The ability to have a private group with other team members and still be able to easily share information within the group is really nice. The ease of using the tool with a mobile device was also a big plus.
> 
> **Cons**: While the community aspect of Beam.gg is great, it can get pretty overwhelming sometimes. Some of the options available can be confusing. The way that the leaderboards work can make it difficult to keep track of where you rank in the rankings. This makes it hard to see your progress from one day to the next.&#10;&#10;Other dislikes: Setting up the CNAME was not as easy as I was accustomed to, it took a long time, like over a week. You cannnot change your email address after setting up an account. Post categories are permanent and cannot be deleted. Beam branding on emails sent to those in the community, not a huge deal but would have been nice to know ahead of time.
> 
> Not much ease in the setup process. But once you do have it set up it is a good platform overall. It is worth trying out to see if it would be a good fit for you and your business.

### "Beam.gg is a Fantastic and Fun Group Software" — 4.0/5

> **Jay** | *27 May 2022* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Great community that I can replace FB Groups with, with more features, and focusing on features to keep your group engaged and enjoying it (while having great discussions) with gamification, white-labeling, and so much more.
> 
> **Cons**: There could be a little more around communicating with individuals (chats, calls, video?, etc) but that's really not the focus for Beam.gg right now, and what they do, they do very well. And their team is continually adding features and building things out, so I wouldn't be surprised to continue to see more work in some areas.
> 
> Easy to set up, ease of use, great customer support, constant new features people want and can use right away. All in all, couldn't be more happy with my purchase. Look forward to building multiple communities here. Also I love the sub-groups features so I can have gated sub-groups and open sub-groups within the same community.

### "Has the potential... but the Creators are focused on Premium instead of working on the foundation." — 3.0/5

> **Burt** | *25 May 2022* | Professional Training & Coaching | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: This software has potential. The gamification features are great for a particular demographic...and that is good. Easy to deploy and easy to use...and that is very important.
> 
> **Cons**: A lot of basic features are missing. Users can not edit a comment.  No private messaging, no scheduling of post, no ability to send out important notifications....etc. NO RESPONSIVE SUPPORT.  &#10;Beam has an impressive "Road Map" and if all of those things get implemented, it would be a great piece of software and worth the current price.  At the moment, with so many bugs, issues and basic functionality missing, this product is NOT ready to be sold as a premium product. &#10;&#10;The R\&amp;D team and owners are more focused on creating Premium add-ons to generate more money, when they need to work on the foundation.&#10;&#10;It's kinda like trying to sell me electric windows for my vehicle, but I can't even manually roll up the windows.  Let's get the basics working....then focus on creating upgrades.
> 
> At first...I was happy, knowing I was testing a beta product that had great potential. But after six months, and the basic functions were not being corrected...I am NOT happy with the product.   I am losing too many members who complain they are leaving because of the bugs and issues with this platform.  I lose money every time a member decides to quit my community.

### "Create courses and communities" — 5.0/5

> **Tim** | *2 March 2022* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I love the gamification features and that I can create courses that feel community based with embeddable video.
> 
> **Cons**: You can’t delete categories so you need to be sure of them up front, and don’t make mistakes like typos.
> 
> Love it, I can see this being the heart of my business

### "Beam is a community builder on steroid\!" — 4.0/5

> **Ziad** | *3 March 2022* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Beam is truly a state of the art gamification community builder where hosting is taken care of and the pricing compared to other community software is truly unmatched\! The ease of use of this software is one of its main strength. The plethora of features it offers is another very powerful quality not to forget that beam offers one of the most beautiful community designs in the space and offers very mobile friendly experience to the users. Gamification and keeping users engaged and active is another powerful feature of Beam as well.
> 
> **Cons**: The software is still pretty new but the team keeps on improving it on a regular basis so this means that Beam will get more powerful and more feature rich with time progression. Push notification is a needed option that it’s not there for now but I think it’s on the roadmap. One other thing that I disliked is the package I bought doesn’t include google Adsense and analytics integration which I feel should be very basic features and included in my plan. Unfortunately this immensely limit my ways of monetizing my community since I’m not interested to offer anything that members can buy directly from me through my community.
> 
> Beam is very powerful in what it does. It builds amazing communities in no time all hosted on blazing fast servers. Very easy to use and requires zero coding skills. Team offers stellar support and keeps updating and improving the platform. I just wish that Adsense and analytics were included in the basic plans like other community software are doing but beside that I’m very happy with my purchase and i highly recommend it\!
