phpFoX - Social Networking Script in PHP :: Content Management

I was very pleased to see most of the features from myspace.com incorporated into this package. Not only was the setup easy, but took only a few minutes.
Not only did you provide me with an awesome portal system, but your customer support is excellent!

This script is honestly powerful, is like myspace in a can. you get to handle which ads and where to show them (cash!), users get in by tons because of the more than 50 features this site offers (videos, blogs, games, messages, custom profiles, video in profiles,themes, admin panel, (paid)memberships...)
No complains so far, only joys

Rubbish software, May 3, 2006

phpFoX - Social Networking Script in PHP :: Content Management

This software is rubbish and is not ready for a live site. It is horribly plagued with bugs, and does not install or work out of the box! I spent ages going page by page fixing typos, font tags, and many other PHP related bugs. Their forums provide no customer support, and contacting them by email takes AGES! I would not recommend this to anyone.

I emailed phpfox a number of times w/ presale questions and they only answered a few & ignored the rest. Resubmit & still got vague answers. I tried one last time w/5 questions & again they only half answered 2 of them. I tried again & days later have gotten NO reply. If this is indicative of their 90 days support, I can't imagine purchasing their product. Beware of their License Agreement, last line, "phpFoX reserves the right to modify these terms at any time."

I have just recently purchased PHPFox's portal system. I have their month to month hosting and license. I have been online 2 days and still having major problems with the product THEY installed. A lot of things are not working, their tech support is AWFUL. I have asked them twice to call me as e-mail support was taking days and confusing them as well as me. NO PHONE CALL! Is that so much to ask? If things change I'll post again but right now I recommend stay away!

This script is pure garbage! There is absolutely no way anyone could ever expand onto the thing if their site got large and templates are a joke. Hard to install. Cant actually create html pages like they would lead you to believe. Stay away! This software is the worst I have ever seen and for the money they want for it, its a joke.

This product is full of bugs. I think the staff knows it themselves, that's why they have admmitted that they are doing a complete rewrite of the entire script! They have halted all development to fix the absurd problems in the script, and to actually rewrite one that works. The support must be overwhelmed by emails from all the bugs, because I never get a reply. I simply can't used phpFox on a live site, it would make my members leave within minutes of seeing the wreck in action.

I like the idea and some of the features. The instant messenger sucks. The forum sucks. Support sucks. This script can't hold more than a few people online. I've seen sites on dedicated servers with 1gb ram plus with an average of 50 people online makes it very very laggy. I've also seen sites on vps with less than 10 online and it makes it very very laggy. The structure of the script sucks.

I really like the service phpFox provides.
In my experience is the best online script I have
ever tried.
The support they provide is one of a kind, if you have any kind of problem with your website they answer the ticket the same day or the next day, itīs really great!
The support I receive is the best, they always give the right solutions to all my issues at the right time, itīs very efficient.
My site works perfect thanks to all phpFox workers.
I hope the services stay as good as now!

phpFoX - Social Networking Script in PHP :: Content Management

Some of the reviews on here are so gushing they're somewhat suspect. The ones mentioning the relatively slow email response and the even slower software are more likely.
The thing is riddled with bugs, and yes have tried the latest version, even more buggy. Installation is NOT easy, for you'll find plenty of chmod errors hiding away to be found later. Get yourself a good php editor, dedicated server and look forward to a few months work.
Or just get something else. Looks nice, not nice.

At first I had issues with bugs, but as a programmer I do know that every software has it bugs, so I simply reported it to the Support and they fixed it in no time. People complaining about bugs here should try to tell the people who's working with it so they can fix it! Cause their support was great! Also phpFoX had so many features and it is so user-friendly for my members. Totally worth it it if you take your time, cause noone can run a site in no time, although I would love to do so! hehe.

I was recently given the opportunity to develop my own version of a 3D Instant Messenger, which powers it's community feel with their own custom made social networking system. My team doesn't have the time and money to build our own, so phpFoX looked fantastic from the start! It has everything you could imagine to run the best of the best social communities. And the mod selection is looking great. Almost as great as their instant support! I recommend this software to anyone in the field! :)

Review Of:
phpFoX - Social Networking Script in PHP :: Content Management

This software is a joke, and like the other poor comment, the positive reviews are suspect. I've been in contact with many phpFox members, and all were unhappy. First of all, the software is incredibly buggy and not useable. It crashes my server which is a dedicated server with just 100 members. It looks like it was slapped together, and the code is horrible. Furthermore, it's extremely buggy, and they are SLOW about fixing these issues. I have sent in many emails, and never received replies.

Those three words basically summarize my experience with phpfox. Slow software and support. With just 1000 members, it came to a crawling stop and brought down my server daily. My hosting company disabled my account because it was causing problems for everyone else. It's also extremely buggy. Full of typos and little bugs at the surface, but if you dig deeper you'll find plenty of security issues, as well as major useability issues. I regret purchasing this script.

This company is a scam. Their software is absurdly buggy. Their support is nonexistant. Their forums are heavily moderated. If you post a thread with anything negative, they delete it. Their moderators sell mods for money, and if you post something similar for free, they delete it and ban you. DO NOT BUY FROM THEM EVER.

This software is outrageous. The demo that they show you works great, but if you get it installed, mine took 5 attempts on 3 different servers. Most of the "features" are actually plug ins that need to be installed in addition to the software. Support turnaround time is between 4 hours and one day. Their "Sales" phone number is a voice mail. Don't waste your money, keep looking for another program. Read all the reviews for this product, you will see the same truths about this company.

They also released a new version of the script (konsort 1.5) that I find is running way faster then older versions of the script

Hi.
After researching community scripts for about 7 months and testing several scripts which were unsuitable, I found the phpFoX konsort 1.5 version. I decided to give it a go and boy, did I make the right move. Installation was faultless, and everthing worked!. The support staff was fantastic and every configuration problem was solved. The general community is great and the actual konsort 1.5 script met every one of my needs. I can't wait for version 2.0 !. My Rating 5***** EXCELLENT !.

I have not personally tried other social networking scripts out there, but have read a lot about them. I just personally liked what I saw and read about phpfox compared to the competition. It had what I wanted and needed, and has many upgrades such as templates, plugins, and development services. There are even template designers for this script that develop professional looking templates. You can check out the services and products available for phpfox at http://www.thefoxdirector y.com

The first question likely to come to mind will probably be - What do you mean Free? There are a lot of "free" dating sites all over the internet nowadays, but they are not totally free! These sites force you to pay attention to or spend additional traffic on annoying banners and links. You probably never thought about this, because you have gotten used to it. The internet is overrun with advertising. Wherever you go, advertising pursues you. Just analyze how this advertising influences you.

This basic software is fine and probably worth the money... I was happy when I first got it BUT then I made the mistake of ordering paid modifications (mods) (without the mods phpfox is a basic myspace-like package) for it and the trouble started... Unless you are a programmer yourself my advice is to STAY AWAY FROM THE PAID MODS for the present until phpfox figures out some way to better manage the build vs mod vs build difficulties.
I won't even get into the cost of themes.
