What Features Do You Look for in Forum Software

Post by Serene »

Before choosing a platform, check for mobile support, moderation tools, spam control, analytics, SEO options, social logins, and plugin availability. A forum lives or dies based on usability. The easier members can interact, the better your growth and retention.

You should probably research software carefully before choosing a platform. You might look for easy navigation, strong moderation tools, mobile responsiveness, search features, analytics, and customization. You should balance modern design with reliability and security.

I want to see a very clean interface. If it's rough, I get bored and it kills the fun. I'm also looking for a very good notification system, easy moderation tools, and simple posting editor. There are must-haves for a forum.

A forum software I rejected, myBB, doesn't have a working alerts system so that's a biggie.
