## Reviews

### "An excellent choice" — 5.0/5

> **Dennis** | *6 December 2018* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Even the worst product will perform well with good customer support.&#10;phpFox is a very good product with excellent customer support, getting two thumbs up.
> 
> **Cons**: I’m a bit disappointed from the lack of native mobile app. I realize that this is only temporary since the app is on its way. But again, is the missing bit to consider is a complete product.

### "Glad I chose phpFOX\!" — 4.0/5

> **Amber** | *1 July 2025* | Entertainment | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: This is a very good product with lots of features and many customization options. This is a big point of difference from other companies with this product/service. The staff is always very patient with me. They also release updates and new features regularly.
> 
> **Cons**: I'd love if the company could have longer working hours so turn-around time is faster. More detailed reporting for admins would be helpful. It would be great if the 3rd party apps that integrate with the browser version could also work in some capacity on the native mobile app. Sometimes I run into a limitation and custom work is cost prohibitive for my small budget (although probably charging a reasonable rate).
> 
> I'm glad I chose phpFox because they have a great product that is always evolving. The staff is kind and patient and takes my requests and concerns seriously. I'm hungry for more reporting options, features, and flexibility in customizing the mobile app and happy that the company is always listening to feedback.

### "total scam\! nothing works." — 1.0/5

> **Mark** | *3 March 2019* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: i thought i was buying a good product but was fooled by these peoples fake reviews. most of these reviews have to be fake because phpfox is a total ripoff and money scam. i spent so much money with these people
> 
> **Cons**: nothing works. 3rd party vendors can steal your bank accounnt and private information, then phpfox says they have no connection with them. they charge for basic things the menu says it can do but dont actually do it. they have to do everything no matter how smart or advanced you are, phofox have their product laid out so you will have to keep paying them to install. until i see my product working for my money i spent, i will not recommend this crappy product to anyone. dont buy or you will have a headache trying to  figure out where your money went
> 
> everything about them is bad. they seem nice at first but they are crooks

### "phpFox - great social network platform you can customize" — 5.0/5

> **Josef** | *7 July 2025* | Online Media | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Currently, the react interface has been a huge step up. The platform keeps up with most mainstream platforms in terms of design and functions.
> 
> **Cons**: If you do any customization of the code, to get the system updated to the last version is quite painful.
> 
> I am using it since version 3 for more than 12 years and I probably will use it the next 12 :) It is a social network that I can customize and it suits my needs. Constant updates and new crucial functions keep emerging. It seems that it is a system I can trust that will not cease soon so I will not be force to look for an replacement..

### "Sly as a MetaFox" — 5.0/5

> **Daniel** | *1 July 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: There is so much:&#10;&#10;1. Amazing product, MetaFox. Delivers what it promises, and then some. Fully featured.&#10;2. Regular updates to stay current, and bug free.&#10;3. Ton of plugins to make MetaFox very popular and expandable.&#10;4. Top notch support which is very timely. Very professional, courteous, and friendly. They do it right the first time\!
> 
> **Cons**: Nothing except one thing. They like, any business, have office hours :) But like a 12 hour difference between us and them. Gonna happen on this globe of ours ;) Other than minor inconvenience, nothing else.
> 
> Two thumbs up, because that is all thumbs I got. I highly recommend MetaFox to everyone. They are the best in terms of product and support. No downsides, only upsides.
