Considered Both Products
Circle Community Platform
Chose Circle Community Platform
The benefit of products like Slack and Facebook groups are they are integrated into tools that most folks already use. However, we wanted the customization and community tools Circle Community Platform offers. Luckily, Circle Community Platform offers an excellent email …
Chose Circle Community Platform
It was the easiest to set up and it was suggested by a lot of people as the best one for my needs! I have zero previous experience about building a community so I tried to listen to suggestions of ppl with more experience than myself. So far it has been a good choice
Chose Circle Community Platform
There is another platform, called Group.App that I tried as well that you don't have listed. Group.App has been around for a few years and they are okay app, they had some issues still when I was using them, but I enjoyed there quick response time when I was using them.
I still …
UUKI
Chose UUKI
Tribe is massively better. The company is decent and have kept their promise to their LTD users. UUKI is a poor shadow by comparison. They constantly compare themselves with Circle, which is ridiculous.
Chose UUKI
UUKI is moving a lot faster than other platforms. Plus the fact that they are building with the community makes it easier to learn from others who have implemented it for their respective use cases.

We selected it because of the value proposition and its affordability which …
Chose UUKI
UUKI is modern, their dev team is very innovative, and they keep adding on new functions in an orderly manner. The only thing I wish is if they had the functionality of custom SMTPwithoutt extra charges. It is a great platform for someone looking for a substitute for Facebook …
Chose UUKI
UUKI is just way more affordable with much more planned features than these 2. But if you want a solid solution, go with these 2 instead.
Chose UUKI
UUKI is still in the early stages but its development has been brisk and the cost was very reasonable. It provides the foundation for building a public or private community of any size without spending a lot of money up front. It may be lacking in some feature sets but the …
Chose UUKI
Price, support, and customization are most excellent.
Chose UUKI
Even though Tribe is a great platform, the pricing just works against it. UUKI is still adding on improvements, but at a rapid pace, and it feels like it will likely surpass other platforms, especially in usability and price. UX/UI-wise, UUKI still is lacking behind, but I'm …
Chose UUKI
The Circle is more mature but quite pricey for a startup. UUKI on the other hand covers the basic features very well while maintaining its affordability. It's also much simpler and very straightforward. The Facebook page is very active for both the UUKI team and the user's …
Chose UUKI
UUKI development is fast compared to other platforms. The founders listen to the community and deploy features based on the demand.
Chose UUKI
UUKI is cost-effective with amazing features including webhook and rest API. UUKI has amazing gamification, event management, pdf upload, embeddable content features which makes UUKI better than the tribe community platform. And within less time UUKI developed a lot of amazing …
Chose UUKI
Facebook is an open community and we have little access to the members that sign up for our group. However, with Uuki we can collect more and better information about these individuals and also keep spam at the lowest. One of the main reasons is that we want to monetize our …
Chose UUKI
Pretty close to the features of the big community platforms, it will probably catch them soon with they current development pace, the developer is pushing updates at a face rate, I really can't complain about it, as long as they keep this leave, they will reach Tribe's or …

If you want to create a community based teaching or communication this would be a great platform. If you also want to sell courses or content, this would be a great place to do that. Giving a group of people a place to come together and learn from each other. I wouldn't recommend this for a person who isn't interested in creating a community, if you want to just sell courses, you can use other software for that

If you're looking for an affordable alternative to platforms like Circle, UUKI could be a perfect fit. It offers similar functionality for a much more affordable price. No member limit, no storage limits, while still being able to white label your own community. However, be aware that it's still in development. There are certainly some bugs to be fixed and a few updates required to truly compete with the others.

  • Some tweaks on UI/UX to make it more polished
  • I would appreciate a better roadmap (instead of a trello board)
  • Allowing translating the string to change the language style to meet the community's style (like Ay mate! for Pirate of the Caribbean fan's community)

UUKI is extremely easy to implement but requires a brief period of time to understand where all of its controls are. (not a real issue)

  • I like the fact that Ankur and his team really listen to their early users. They just keep on improving UUKI and it's really not that hard to transfer your community from FB to UUKI. There are just so many features and it keeps on improving.
  • UUKI really helps you build your community. You can transfer your audience from Facebook that has a lot of restrictions to your own exclusive community
