## Reviews

### "One of a kind experience" — 5.0/5

> **Hisham** | *24 January 2019* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like their simplicity in creating social networks software, they bring all what you need to the platform.
> 
> **Cons**: It has a lot of features as it sometimes forms a headache to map them out when an issue occur. Prices are a little over, it should be less.

### "Social Engine + SocialEngineAddOns  - Score 10/10" — 5.0/5

> **Richard** | *24 May 2018* | Internet | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: These ease of use and overall support getting the fragdna project off the ground. I would recommend this software to anyone thinking of using it for their project. I use the SocialEngineAddons plugins which I think are the best and most user friendly out there, these guys are real pro's and support is quick, no waiting around also seem to be a friend bunch willing to put in that extra effort. 10/10
> 
> **Cons**: Sometimes when updating plugins I have to re-tweek my custom code, with regular backups it's only a few minutes to fix things. Apart from that very minor issue I have no complaints about SE software or support

-----

### "Not bad but something I wouldn't recommend" — 3.0/5

> **Rick** | *15 July 2010*
> 
> **Pros**: Limited to stability when it comes to supporting 10,000 or more members, takes up a great amount of database bandwidth effecting the performance.
> 
> **Cons**: You are actually limited to the amount of plug-ins...if it involves other third party plug-ins, then when it comes to compatibility there are so many issues to deal with.
> 
> I would give it a 50 on a 100% scale.
