Mighty Networks Reviews: 4.6/5 — Highly Rated

Easy to use, members like how simple it is.

I wish that you could get your members to pay in GBP! Desperate for this change.

It has a seamless interface with stripe and zoom which saves me time.

I like that the site has a mobile app that works WELL. It's not a cheap knock-off or just a repackaged responsive website - the app feels good, looks good, and gives my members and I the ability to stay connected on the go. Having users with the app in their pocket means I can connect with them through a Push Notification. Having the app in MY pocket means I can respond to urgent issues quickly and keep tabs on what's going on in my community.

The pricing structures are very rigid, making it impossible to do most price-based promotions without either submitting an entirely new plan to the iOS store (every plan needs to be approved by Apple). or relying on a third-party payment processor to do special pricing/deals. For example, if I wanted to do a 90-day free trial, a $1 trial, or offer quarterly pricing, I have to go third-party and integrate.

Originally, I launched my mebership site with a Wordpress forum. It wasn't pretty, involved several plugins working together created by different developers, and required a lot of work to get running and figure out how to fix when things went wrong. It's a private, professional-looking social media network for my members that I have to do zero maintenance on. If I have a problem, I reach out to a very timely support staff. Just the time savings in not having to create and manage a Forum or Membership site through Wordpress alone was worth the cost.

I like how Mighty Networks houses everything in one place. I started my first MN to create a collaborate community for authors with co-working and educational spaces. I'm thrilled with what has happened thus far and the possibilities for more.

Members often complain that the platform is confusing to navigate. I can see how that is true. I am eager for many of the things that are coming on the MN Product Roadmap, like currencies other than USD. I feel like the payment plans are a little confusing, though I'm not sure what I'd recommend at this point.

I have consolidated and streamlined course delivery and communications through Mighty Networks. We're migrating our Facebook group and will officially close it on August 16th!

A Mighty Network is a radically new way of constructing a community-driven enterprise. A Mighty Network contains all the features what we actually needs from the online community such as content,discussions, sharing in social media networks,activities,post,topics and much more

only dislike about the tool is it could have more custom field options under user profile configuration.

This is the tool what we were good at doing,it brings all together in a single platform so it benefited a lot alike me for several's out there

The mobile app is smooth and visual appealing. Both mobile and desktop have all the features needed to run a successful community.

The notifications are a little difficult to manage. Just when I thought I the right notifications settings, a few more appeared and I couldn't quickly remove the "red bubble" on my iPhone. :)

I am connecting with a new network building relationships and content at the same time. We've created great content together and realized a ton of positive engagement from the community.

The design aesthetic was really nice and having a pre-made app was really great. Also having courses, documents, etc all in one place was amazing!

It felt very cluttered, had a bit of a learning curve and was difficult for members to navigate. Unfortunately, because of this, the retention was not amazing.

Having all courses, articles, directory, and community content in one place is wonderful.

I’ve been looking for a community platform for months that doesn’t cost a ton and has all the features i need to run a complete community. I’m still in the trial phase but so far I love it!! I’m thrilled I can house courses plus a community all in one place. I like that I can create groups within my own app for memebr a to congregate. They can also search by topic and join one of my courses. There are tons of features.

I wish I could brand the app without having to switch to pro level. The organizing feels a bit repetitive and confusing becuase there are so many features! but I think I can fix it by turning off some features. If I could brand the app for a decent price it would be perfect.

Having a course platform and community all together in one place! Courses do best when there’s a community group, and this app provides as really great alternative to Facebook which I didn’t want to use.

I like the analytics and the AI capabilities

That you don't get very good technical support. I lok

To be able to deliver content to subscribers

I'm reviewing this as a user not an admin. I love how simple it is! It's easy to navigate and create organized groups and events. Staying in touch with a specified group is very easy.

The recent change in Mighty Networks: they removed topics, which was a great way to organize posts and replaced it with hashtags, which I find very unorganized, and posters will have to know exactly what hashtag term to look for, for the topic of their choice. Very counter-intuitive, and I don't understand the reasoning behind this change. Many of my fellow Mighty Networks users feel the same way as I do about this change.

Mighty Networks allows me to stay in touch with a community I'm highly involved in. It helps me connect to find resources for my business and other professionals in my business for many different reasons. It's a closed community, so not just anyone will come in and spam unnecessary posts that would clutter the platform. Mighty Networks helps to keep the community on track of its core idea.

Customizing the site, adding content, and all the options for branding are very helpful. The build-out was easy to use, and there was help when we got stuck.

It no longer fits our needs; more has been added, which would be great for others (live video feed,) but the new format isn't as intuitive to use for our students, and we are spending time orienting people to where things are located we didn't need to do before. There are also some unique issues to our business as our program is six months long and can't "add on" or charge folks for a second round within TMN, not graduate people out of their plan after they complete the six months. Support often takes 24+ hours to reply, which has been an issue with urgent issues we ran into. It may be too advanced for our needs, more high-tech than our audience, or better suited for a larger audience. For the cost and support it's likely a great fit for others.

A good all-in-one, no plug-in membership option to sell community memberships and courses.

A great platform to organise and share my teaching courses with my fanbase. It's easy to use and intuitive. Its customer support is one of the best I ever worked with.

Slow implementation of new and requested features.

So far, it's the best option I have for my teaching classes online.

I've been impressed with the ease of use mighty networks provides. I'm not normally a "social media" person but I've found MN to be incredibly easy to use and understand, and that includes for the person setting it up! (Me!!) I have wanted to implement a social community on my site for several years and I finally decided to do so after seeing someone else use Mighty. Up until now my only real soution i thought was to implement a buddy press site, but that is cumbersome, requiring lots of coding to make it look good and work with my theme. MN is already done and works really well. I love the notifications (opens up a new way to communicate with customers besides email) and I really like the calendar/zoom integration. I'm now scheduling all of my meeting directly in MN instead of through zoom. I'm still pretty new to the platform but so far I've been pleased and my customers have been pleased. Personally I'm using it every day in the business and my customers are starting to use it more and more. I'm hoping it becomes the epicenter of our website. Also the on-boarding was a very welcome surprise. I haven't reached out to the direct customer support because I haven't needed to! The on-boarding pretty much got me up and running all on it's own! One more thing I really like - (i'm on the basic plan) I was able to create a subdomain on my website and use that as my mighty address! So people don't have to type in a mighty specific address, but rather community.mysite.com This makes it look like it's very exclusive to my site which I really like (this was actually a friction point before because I didn't want to take people off my site for a community) All things considered it's a thumbs up!

I have only a couple things I'd really do differently with MN. 1) Top of the list is Single Sign on. Even with everything I like about MN, this is almost in itself a deal breaker. My typical client is over 60 and they don't understand why they need two logins, one for my site and one for MN. It's a fairly simple integration with wordpress and in 2023 with all the technology we have, it should be a no-brainer. It should be a free feature with the basic level of service. (all zapier integrations should) 2) My second complaint is usage limits - I find them confining and because of the limits I find myself NOT using features of MN. Storage is cheap these days. I pay less/month for my main video hosting with 7TB of storage than I would for MN business plan - and MN only provides 1TB. I know there's a sliding scale but for online businesses like mine variable costs in business utility services (like MN) is a killer. Before you know it you have created an essential part of your business that people expect, but the cost to provide that continues to go up as usage goes up. A warning to other business owner (and to MN) this can crush your business cashflow so be very careful and plan accordingly. (Note to MN - you should adjust this seriously) 3) Finally my 3rd complaint is for the "Mighty Pro". I actually found mighty because I wanted to do an app. But the cost of Mighty Pro is prohibitive (and entirely unnecessary). Moreover I didn't appreciate being told I'm not a candidate for it without really being able to investigate. That was my one complaint about MN. The process of investigating if MN Pro was a good fit for me actually not only turned me off to MN but had me actively looking for another solution. Due to the pricing of MN pro I won't be doing the app with MN and already have other solutions, which may ultimately cause me to move away from MN altogether. That part remains to be seen. Bottom line: I really really like MN a lot. But they shoot themselves in the foot a little.

MN allows me to have a real community feature for my business. It gives my customers a way to connect with each other in a private network that doesn't require them to be on facebook or another network. Many of my customers are adamently opposed to being on the main social networks so this solves that problem.

The variety of features is quite impressive. The ability to personalize it to meet your company's specifications is helpful.

As a seminary, our preference would be to offer courses on the platform that would allow us to set the quizzes as pass/fail and limit the number of tries. This feature is not currently available on Mighty Networks.

Findings ways to engage our online students in meaningful collegiate community has been a challenge for years. Social Media helped with this somewhat but the ads, constant marketing and other barriers associated with Facebook groups was a problem. Whereas with Mighty Networks we have overcome that.

Great way to improve content management, list events, provide secure information to members only

Lack of flexibility. It'd be good if a few things were more adaptable

Allowing our network to connect and also storing our content all in one place

everything is here and centrally located.

I have things are are available year round for paid subscribers, and I have things that are free only for certain times of the year for everybody (the paid subscribers also get this and I had to create 2 identical spaces to get it to work, and then archive the free one once the time was up.

so far

The ease of use and segments you can create.

That you cannot share the events on social media to build the community. Plus recordings cannot be saved to the library

Its create a safe communoty, but it needs tools to help me build it

The Events features are great, and I love how you can integrate with Zoom. I would love for this integration also to happen for the recordings of events, ratings. The Branding possibilities are immense. I love how much we can play with our branding to give it fresh touches from time to time. The navigation is easy, and the design is crisp.

The lesson formats are a bit restrictive to video and text. I would like to have more interactive activities or format possibilities, such as quizzes or others, instead of resorting to third-party apps. At times I've found some users don't fully understand the sequential locked lessons, and I must say it makes sense from the admin point of view, but from the user experience, it is confusing and frustrating not being able to start from wherever you like, if it's self-paced learning then it should be entirely. The insights need a really good look at! I would like to have more specific data on how content performs. Specifically, data on dates and times published as well as a more detailed look at member behavior. We would love to see a badge system for members to obtain badges depending on their certifications.

Our members need to quickly understand how things work and where to find what they need. Mighty networks makes it easier for us to do that in way that is logical and straight forward.

Ease of use, incredible online and real-person support, ability to customize at the lower subscription levels, and amazing functions and tools to keep people involved.

I really can't think of anything - it has been a wonderful experience up to this point. There might be a few features we'd like to see - but they promise they're working on them.

Mighty Networks is providing a professional place to bring together our community, instead of using Facebook or another ad-filled platform, this makes our users feel truly special.

I love the easy accessibility of the app, being able to keep everything from resources and updates all in one place has been so helpful. It's also saved time because I have been able to scratch the email component to my membership family.

I have found it to be a little pricey. For those that may be new to building a community, it is quite a big financial commitment up front. Perhaps another entry level subscription would be helpful for those. It also would be cool to be able to build multiple networks underneath the one subscription that you are paying for.

It helped me to minimize the amount of platforms I was using to both store resources, present learning content and build a community, the way everything is in one place is so amazing.

The image, features, the way you can organize groups and topics.

Does not really help you to grow, I have the sense that if I stopped posting things for a week no one will do it in the community.

I manage a profesional community, I have the vision of giving exclusive content to my asociation members, but not until the community really starts to work for itself,

It is visually engaging; members enjoy that, and it adds to the experience - not all community software is, and I think it makes a difference. It is rich in features so different communities can structure their programs to work for their specific members. There is a lot of hands-on attention from the team; I have greatly appreciated the responsiveness and caring. It is well-priced for those of us with small organizations.

I get overwhelmed sometimes with the bells and whistles and think meat and potatoes features feel like they get pushed aside. (The delay on spaces is what comes to mind. In fairness, there are so many requests for new features. MN does a great joy of improving the network.

Love the spaces! I find organizing all the information I provide to be a big headache. I appreciate anything MN does to make that easier.

Site is easy to organize to fit our needs, has more versatility than other networking sites we've tried. Visually, it's very appealing, which works well for our business, which is visually-based.

There are occasional minor glitches and irritations, but when compared to other sites we've tried, they are minimal in nature.

It's creating a place for our entire organization to come together and share/work with each other without going to several different platforms.

How responsive the team is to questions that I have had. It's also been an easy learning curve as one of the hosts.

I wish it were a bit more b to b oriented. It's very focused on the individual level.

Mighty Networks has allowed fundraising professionals who support public libraries the opportunity to share resources and support one another. In turn, this allows for increased ROI and job satisfaction.

Se puede poner una comunidad de paga dentro de la plataforma. La verdad eso facilita el crecimiento de la comunidad apuntando a poder generar ingresos por este medio.

La usabilidad no es tan intuitiva, creo que está evolucionando poco a poco pero aún falta que la herramienta tenga una mejor experiencia de usuario. Por ejemplo en el tema de los lives que se puede hacer.

Es una plataforma donde puedo proyectar el crecimiento de la comunidad que estamos construyendo, porque se asipira a poder monetizar y generar contenido exclusivo para nuestros miembros.

Easy to use from an admin standpoint, can handle lots of content, easy to customize to look like your own brand, native an mostly easy to use for people signing up

Might Networks has given us lots of challenges with our livestreams, they often glitch, you cannot generate a livestream link before the stream actuall starts (this would be useful to have when people rsvp to the event) and the chat is not included in anyway with the video recording itself.

We attempted to build our own social network type space, but it was so much to manage, it saved our staff time to leverage might networks and focus on content and interaction instead of building the software itself

Mighty Networks has provided a wellrounded platform for creating and establishing not only a digital presence but a full fledge virtual community. The ease of execution cuts development time down to a manageable and accessible level.

It helps to have some pre-existing design skills to help maximize the potential of the platform. If you don't then there is good support available as an up-sell for a nominal fee.

Mighty Network has allowed us to unify our communications & resources, extend our reach and centralize our value to our community. It's has made it possible to cultivate real connections in real time and hits so many points for our educational and enrichment needs in a way that has supported our operational efficiency.

I found Mighty Networks while looking for a Patreon alternative to build a tree subscription service on. Once I realized its community-building capabilities, there was no looking back. Mighty Network has a suite of powerful tools to facilitate conversation and social connection that the distractions of Facebook or the one-sided conversations of Patreon can't match. A robust course builder and the ability to create multiple spaces make Might Networks an excellent tour for online learning. I highly recommend Mighty Networks for anyone working to build an online community. -Easy to use -Excpetional customer service -Flexability to make networks free, paid, or private -Ability to create payment plans for external and internal members -Can use your own URL (Business Plan) -Excellent course building tools (Business Plan)

Why 8/10? A few minor things, but most notably, Mighty Networks currently only accepts payments in USD - BUT the MN team has informed me that this change is coming. On that note, when signed up to the Business Plan, Might Networks offers excellent customer service and around-the-clock troubleshooting. -Prices are only avaibale in USD (Including my monthy fee to Mighty Networks) -I wish that I could clone and re-edit posts and payment plants.

I am building an online community to fund free trees for communities and schools. Mighty Networks allows me to offer annual subscriptions in exchange for trees and community perks like online classes and virtual/IRL events.

The community is the best part for us. Prior to switching to MN we used slack for our community. This platform is sooo much better than slack.

The landscape of navigation can get confusing. The difference between the main community and the individual communities that are connected to specific curriculums.

It's creating community for our buyers

Mighty Networks is a great place to build community. The team is incredibly innovative, supportive, and personal. They are always thinking 10 steps ahead and working to create new updates to deliver a best-in-class community experience for your members.

Analytics are lacking. The analytics dashboard is not user-friendly, hardly customizable by date, and very limited in scope. Not only this, but often the reports are incorrect, what you see in one place is different in another. If you rely on metrics to report, Mighty Networks may not be the place for you.

Incredible community builder with thoughtful tools AND a team to help guide you along the way. The Mighty Networks team is amazing and incredibly collaborative. They host workshops and roundtables to help you build the best community for your members. So much more hands-on than any other platform.

I love that the app is almost as robust as the browser-based version. It's easy to use on both platforms and very intuitive. Such an easy way to connect with our larger community and smaller groups within that community.

It took a long time to figure out how to get our site branded. I wish that they had given image sizes for logos and banners, as I spent a lot of time experimenting with sizes.

It has allowed our communities to "gather" with fewer distractions. Most of our clients disliked getting on FB to participate in groups as there were so many other things happening there that pulled their attention. Mighty Networks will also make it much easier to reach our larger community without having to post to all of our separate groups. I'm looking forward to being in touch with clients that are not currently registered in our programs.
