Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt November 11, 2024
Jonathan B Posted May 15, 2012 Posted May 15, 2012 I discovered IPS suite by accident the SAME DAY I was going to buy vBulletin. I just happened to see a really nice forum skin, inquired about it, and was referred to this community. Just like that, my expectations changed and vBulletin was no longer a viable option. For my site, ip.downloads is the core of my offering...the 'meat and potatoes'. The forum turned out to be a nice addition to provide support and information for those who needed it. I upload large files between 40mb-2gb of music, templates, and presets for professional and aspiring multimedia producers/engineers. My first option was to learn programming to build my own solution (which I haven't completely ruled out), but IPS was a great start which allowed me to focus on the content I provide for my users. This is an invaluable service.. Though its not perfect, it does better than any other boxed solution with a wide range of integrated apps and hooks. I read many compaints about pricing, but I don't know a single programmer who has a better quote for such a range of functionality and requirements. Please continue to study the needs of your users. Maybe even start a VIP forum where paid users get their requests acknolwedged first. I wish IPS team the best of success.

Rhett Posted May 16, 2012 Posted May 16, 2012 Welcome to IPS Thank you for taking the time to post your positive experience! :) On the VIP forum, nice idea, however we do have the business license option which does provide priority support as well. :)
