  phpfox - beware!

  Rating: 1 - Poor
  Reviewed by on Mar 15th, 2011

  I cant tell you how I regret writing this. I am a web developer with 14 years experience and 6 weeks ago decided to give PHPFOX a try. What a mistake. It is functionally poor, full of bugs and with appalling documentation. Their claim you need no programming experience is rubbish. I have had a team of 3 experienced developers working on my site for 6 weeks and they still cant get it to work. And when I want to write to them to complain? You try and find an address? They are invisible. Even on their license agreement there is no contact information. When I posted a complaint about their product on their forum it was immediately removed - so much for the 1st Amendment! The sales blurb sounds good, but trust me (as an honest reviwer who has lost $1,000's ) dont touch it Mike

  Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

  PHPFOX, my worstNIGHTMARE

  Rating: 1 - Poor

  Based on extremes of the reviews here, I suspect that phpfox either went very well for some people or the pits for others. When I am ready to throw my computer out the window and wreck my house out of frustration I realized something was wrong. I spent a few hundred dollars on this platform and tried to hang on. There is no customer support unless you pay $49 every 3 months. Your only other recourse is their forums and right now it is full of frustrated clients. I posted 3 requests for help and no one answered me until I posted that I was dropping phpfox. Then I was ridiculed for not hanging in there but I tried to explain that I had been trying for 5 months to get the hang of it and the gliches out. I am not an expert but I am not a beginner either. I did a lot of homework before my purchase, just didn't see these reviews. I gladly walked away from the money I spent and would never recommend phpfox to anyone. The platform for my website now is WordPress. Hope this helps someone else before they throw their money away like I did.

• Worst Customer Support

  Rating: 1 - Poor

  The product it self is not bad, but if you buy it expect the worst customer support ever! Put in a ticket and expect to wait days before getting a response. This especially happens on the weekends. Ask them to update you on things and your requests will go ignored. And that little promise about installing software in 48 hrs., well you can throw that out the window too! In summary, one of the worst companies ever when it comes to customer support!

• PHPFOX IS TOTAL SCAM

  I’m posting this PHPFOX Review because I want to get the word out about PHPFOX. I still have not got it working properly. They have refused to deal with me now and the last email they sent was telling her that it was a hosting problem, that was 3 weeks ago. I replied with that it wasn’t a hosting problem and that I wanted my money back. They refuse to listen to me I contacted her credit card company. This is a classic story of what is going on with PHPFOX.

• TERRIBLE company!!!

  This product is not worth the PAIN of installation and debugging. They don't provide ANY support. If you open a support ticket they will give you a generic answer or blame the problem on your hosting company. I've disproved them a number of times. When I sent them a colorful email about their crappy support they threatened to cut me off. If your looking for community software, look somewhere else because it is a TERRIBLE company!!!
