The ability to integrate with a wide variety of 3rd party software. The support and customer service is amazing. > > **Cons**: The software is a bit user unfriendly and there is a steep learning curve for those who are not technically inclined when implementing the software. > > An affordable, customizable membership platform that, once learned is pretty easy to navigate. The ability to customize almost every aspect of the membership site. ----- ### "Top-Tier Customer Support" — 5.0/5 > **Joshua** | *4 June 2021* | Online Media | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Throughout my 7 days of testing the product to see if it would work for my client, their support was phenomenal. I had the pleasure of working with \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] to address some of the issues I had. Although we ultimately made the choice to go a different route and request a refund, I made it clear that I wanted an opportunity to leave them a review based solely on her support alone. It isn't every day you meet companies that are willing to go more than the extra mile for their customer base. Wishlist Products has support that I can confidently is the best I've had in quite some time. Props to them. > > **Cons**: I was using Thrive Themes to design the website for my client. Wishlist Member came highly recommended by their team as the Membership Plugin of choice. However, I found that because of the way Thrive Themes operates, it would have been difficult to get the plugin working as I would have liked. Things like having to design our own dashboard page offered great customization, but at the expense of then having more parts that could break. For example, if I search Google for one of their shortcodes --\> \[wlm\_profileform\] I am brought to a plethora of "Dashboard Pages" from sites that use their product. This is because it's difficult to actually lock a membership page to only registered users. You can restrict the page to specific membership levels, but then as soon as a member expires from that membership level, they lose access to that page and can no longer update their membership. Ideally, one would still allow registered users to access their profile page, but just not them access the restricted content. This would let them resubscribe, access their billing area, etc. > > I struggled with the development and deployment on my client's website, but I do not add fault to them for this process. Although there are things that could be improved upon, the product works as described. Customer support was, as I mentioned above, ridiculously good. ----- ### "Wish list" — 3.0/5 > **Britthany** | *24 May 2019* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10 > > **Pros**: I liked how easy it was to use for anyone. My sixty year old mother can use it without my help\! > > **Cons**: How long it actually takes. Time is of virtue ----- ### "The perfect plugin to secure your content in Wordpress" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *16 November 2022* | Internet | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: WishList Member is a great plugin for WordPress that allows you to manage your students on a course or memberships to exclusive content on your site. > > **Cons**: At first, you could get lost with so many features, but you quickly discover them as you go along, then you love playing with them. > > I found WishList Member when I was looking for a plugin to secure my courses on WordPress. As an online entrepreneur, I searched high and low for the best and found nothing better than this plugin. It's easy to use, offers great features and you can rest assured that your courses are secure with WishList Member. ----- ### "Easy to use and very powerful Membership plugin for Wordpress" — 5.0/5 > **Marcius** | *31 March 2022* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: This is a very robust membership plugin. It has all the things you would need when creating a membership site and makes the whole process easy. Getting setup is not hard at all since it's all pretty intuitive and they also have videos on the subject. The shining light of this plugin is the massive amount of integrations with other most popular tools out there - a LOT of payment processors, many email service providers and other plugins. > > **Cons**: The Courses Add-On is the only real serious feature update they've had in a very long time, and it's a paid add-on, meaning all this time they finally made something new, and now they want extra for it. Another con is that it's pretty old codebase and the backend design is dated. The pricing structure now pretty much makes you either have 1 license without the course addon, or 50 licenses with it, even if you don't need that many. So it encourages you to get the biggest plan and the add-ons right off the bat. > > Getting started with Wishlist Member is really easy and their video instructions are making it even easier. You'll have a membership setup in no time with the payment processor of your choice. It does require you to design the member's area yourself if you want it to look decent, while some other tools like LMS plugins do it automatically. There are plenty of integrations that will make your life easier. ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/297749/wishlist-member?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/297749/wishlist-member) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
