It has been a great experience. > > It was very easy to set up, I had my site up and runing in no time. It has been a great experience. ----- ### "Excited About Brilliant Directories" — 5.0/5 > **Michael** | *8 December 2024* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I was very impressed with Brilliant Directories's features. They certainly provide everything I will need to grow my directory. > > **Cons**: I wouldn't say it is a con, but Brilliant Directories is very comprehensive, so there will be a learning curve. Their extensive video library will require time to view. > > Thus far, my experience has been great. They communicate very well and go above and beyond to discuss all pertinent aspects of their product. ----- ### "So far, not bad" — 3.0/5 > **Nasser** | *28 December 2015* > > On the positive side, Brilliant Directories is very easy, in fact effortless, to initially get up and running. That's good. On the negative side, I'm finding it difficult to understand how to customize the system according to my needs. I am a web developer with years of experience with php, javacscript, SQL Server, etc. I just a simple set of documentation which tells me how I can access the source code, and what the API is (if there is one). The Customer Service response time is very fast, and so far they have been very good at helping with DNS changes. However, with regards to customization, so far I have only received responses telling me it can't be done, or I have to ask for a quote in the marketplace, or I have to spend $100 of my allowance to set up a call with an expert. I am a web developer\! I want to do this stuff myself. Please help me out here. (I've already paid a reasonable amount of money. If I need something that I can't do myself then, rest assured, I'll pay you more). Thank you. ----- ### "Great experience with BD" — 5.0/5 > **James** | *7 December 2024* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Turnkey directory solution. Cost effective and much easier to set up out of the box than WP. > > **Cons**: Small learning curve with widgets, php, text labels \& streaming, but overall a pleasant experience this far. > > It’s been great\! It has good functionality, gets all of the fundamentals right \& there’s a lot included out of the box. Good support \& active community. ----- ### "Great find super excited to find a directory software" — 5.0/5 > **Karen** | *7 December 2024* | Nonprofit Organisation Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: There's not too many directory software so this was a very nice find. > > **Cons**: Hard part is reaching someone when I was trying to make a purchase, but I ended up finding out what I needed hopefully. > > I'm still new and setting up but overall I'm super excited about my find. ----- Page: 1 / 33\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.co.nz/software/107889/brilliant-directories?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.co.nz/software/107889/brilliant-directories) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | ----- ## Structured Data
