Overall Satisfaction with UUKI

A powerful alternative to community platforms, UUKI is the community platform I was dreaming of. In constant state of improvement, it already offer powerful features such as customization, custom URL/CNAME, ability to virtually be as creative as you wish when posting (text, images, videos, HTML, etc), internal newsletter/emailing system, native community PLUS private chat, ability to connect events and accept registrations, etc. What you get: Privacy, No ads, Safety, total control over how the community functions, and more. Absolutely excellent.If you need a fully customizable community platform with excellent support, then UUKI is the obvious choice as a competitor to Circle, MN, and others.

We use it for private groups and teaching. Most excellent if you wish to exist in a non-invasive environment (i.e. FB, etc). However, because UUKI is sto versatile, the sky is the limit in terms of how to use it - from directories, blogging, team content creation, marketing, etc.
