"Connect on a whole new level"

What do you like best about Discourse? I like that someone who is looking for my niche services can inquire about them here. Not only can they ask about them, I get a place where I can talk about what I do and what I can offer them. It’s where supply meets demand and demand meets supply. It also helps me and people like me to cultivate fans of what we do. It’s Hollywood for everyone else. What do you dislike about Discourse? I wish it were a bit more colorful and eyegrabbing at first sight. ...

Sometimes the forums can become unorganized and change topics quickly it would be nice if a new thread would be started by administrators to keep the organization What problems is Discourse solving and how ...

"My Discourse Review"

What do you like best about Discourse? Probably the best feature of this software is its being open source.

"Discourse is a great software! "

What do you like best about Discourse? One of the things that I like best is the ability to support other people in the same field of work. All of the discussion is useful, and anything negative is quickly corrected. All of the users seem to want to help one another in a friendly and helpful discourse. What do you dislike about Discourse? One thing that I dislike is that some user posts are completely deleted when a user is removed. Recommendations to others considering Discourse: I ...

"The best forum software out there and open source too!"

What do you like best about Discourse? Its very useful for replacing the old mailing list software with an open source and user friendly experience. It also helps for users to choose and use forum threads without the user interface by subscribing via mailing list mode. It's also good for open communication for the whole organization too. What do you dislike about Discourse? At first, I wasn't sure how to use tags since everything was lowercase and it feels a bit messy for an user-centric ...

"A great product for creating a forum"

What do you like best about Discourse? Discourse is easy to use and allows users to communicate easily and efficiently which is vital. Members can come together in one place and ask questions, answer questions, as well as get help and assistance when needed. What do you dislike about Discourse? It takes a bit getting used to and I don't think its as organized as it could be. It seems that questions can pile up quickly and it almost feels like I am swimming in unread emails. The navigation ...

"Very organized -- good bang for your buck!"

What do you like best about Discourse? We know discourse isn't the most robust forum software out there, but for the price, it does very well! Keeping things organized is incredibly easy - especially if you're wanting to have posts grouped by specific topics as well. The moderation customization is surprisingly robust though - you can assign key individuals specific roles that you want them to perform, and what abilities they'll be able to have while in the forum. What do you dislike about ...
