MemberPress Reviews

I was previously on Kajabi but could not get that product to look exactly how I wanted it to. Nor could I get the function. However, I knew I could on my own site… but that left the problem of managing a membership and payment gateway. Enter here memberpress for the win! What a great solution that is straightforward to use and comes with so many amazing features like automatic emails, rules to guard content, and multiple membership options.

Testing the features after creating my membership took some time because it didn’t integrate with Stripe as easily as I’d like at first . The accounts would link but they didn’t communicate well enough to send off the test email.

However memberpress customer support was amazing in helping me trouble shoot this.

Extremely flexible due to its deep integration with WordPress. Makes it very easy to brand and pull into their API to meet our own needs. Excellent support and stable.

Some nuances in how their code is written and how it works with WordPress that takes time to learn. Can be difficult to add new user subscriptions or upgrade as an admin due to the subscriptions using native Stripe subscriptions - we get why it was done this way though.

MemberPress has the all the tools to create a place to gather your users and provide a community very quickly. The ability to get lessons up, deliver content, and provide value is amazing.

Some of the integrations take some time to figure out. There has been some learning on my part that slowed things down.

Easy to configure, drip content, email automations for remembers users, paypal and stripe payments.
Great integration with Wordpress.

Once, some updates broke coupons codes, but fast solved.

The Courses addon is the main draw for me. It looks the best and is simple to use for the user.

It's lack of good integration with WooCommerce. I have to use a 3rd party automation service to connect MemberPress Courses with my WooCommerce store and it's still, not a problem-free solution. I wish they made real WooCommerce integration.

I love that this integrates right into our Wordpress site. I also love the ability to create corporate accounts and monthly recurring memberships, and that there are so many available add-ons and third party integrations that we can use.

We switched from another membership software, so it was a little tricky importing information in a similar way to what we had set up. I also wish that the software had the ability to split tender. Membership reporting is pretty surface level, it would be nice to be able to run more detailed reports on specific memberships - or members that that are about to expire.

It's effortless to use. I just follow the videos and instructions on setting up certain features. It has most of the things we want for a membership plugin. If I stumble into a problem, their support department is very much willing to help, and they answer at once. The pricing point is too high; there should be different entry levels.

The pricing point is too high; there should be different entry levels. I am administering the account under [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN]. There's a bit of complication when using a caching plugin and CDN service with this. You have to remember to follow the instructions if you do have those plugins to help improve the website's performance as it can provide some frustrations. Clearing the cache is always the key to resolving issues.

I own a couple of private course websites, one on internet marketing and the other on HTML. These membership websites were mounted using member press. This plugin empowers content creators with a lot of helpful features to protect and monetize their hard work.

It's true it's not perfect, however, I haven't found better elsewhere. It's just easy to use and completely transforms your website into a nice-looking membership website.

I use the course features because it provides wide content accessibility which I find useful for my visitors. In 2020 we made more than $18,000 from our membership sites with over 32,000 students enrolled. Although this may not be a lot, it's an accomplishment and I'm very proud of that.

Based on pricing, I think they should provide more modern stylish templates that will logically amend their subscription charges. Not every user is code-savvy and might tend to bounce back if the appearance does not match their intents.

I, in particular, do not appreciate the quality of form styling they offer.

We implemented MemberPress in 2016 as a replacement for a 7-year-old bespoke/ hand-coded system and only wish we had done it sooner. Replacing an old system was made easy by MemberPress because there was a way to do everything from the previous - more efficiently and effectively - plus so many new and useful capabilities. Also important, we tried 2 other membership systems first and discarded them because they did not do everything that needed to be done. MemberPress was the right choice, hands down.

Least - was only that it took a long time to set it up and the learning curve was steep. But it was never frustrating because we had had so many bad experiences prior. Once we started with MemberPress it all went smoothly. It just took a great deal of effort to do it the way we wanted it done.

This software integrates easily in Wordpress websites. While the UI is a little challenging, the software is very feature-rich.

The transaction vs subscription relationship is confusing. Also, the lack of built in directory feature.

All the features and options. To be able to build a full Membership site

The price ;-)
But I choose a plan with enough licenses for happy clients.

It’s extensive range of features and easy installation.

Some of the setup is a bit tricky and requires extensive reading but this is a minor problem.

One standout aspect of MemberPress is the seamless integration with WordPress. As someone familiar with the WordPress ecosystem, I appreciated how effortlessly MemberPress integrated into my existing website, making setup and configuration a breeze. The flexibility and control over membership levels and content restrictions are the true gems of MemberPress. This level of customisation helps me to offer personalized and exclusive content to different membership levels, catering to the diverse needs of my audience.

While MemberPress offers robust functionality, one area I believe could benefit from improvement is the design and customization options. Although MemberPress provides basic styling options, I would appreciate more advanced customization features to align the membership site's appearance with my brand's unique aesthetics. Having more design flexibility would allow me to create a truly immersive and visually appealing experience for my members.
