They need a lot time to address the bugs

Pros

I am submitting this review mainly to discuss the design features of the platform. I have not yet reached the stage where I can comment on the functionality of the application itself.

Cons

In short the design interface is not the best. It is difficult to navigate forcing you to jump between different sections just to edit one page. And even though it is built on the Bootstrap system, the implementation is poor. For example it does not allow full width images in the hero section as everything is stuck at 1200px which looks bad on most desktops. I have been told this has been a known issue for months.

Consider other options

Pros

The one thing I liked was how simple it was to use the pre-built templates.

Cons

There has been an ongoing issue since February 2022 where you cannot save your work and there were IQA problems from November 2021 to February 2022. It seems like there are continuous backend issues which the CTO has even acknowledged. On top of that the lack of updates and poor customer support have made the experience terrible. So I would recommend paying more for a more reliable service. My department has faced criticism from the executive team because Higher Logic does not seem to address these issues. And if you are using this platform for email automation I would give it a zero. As emails do not go out to our contact list and nothing gets saved, leading to a lot of frustration. We have missed several deadlines due to 504 errors and customer service takes days to respond.

Good community, average CMS

Pros

Higher Logic is excellent for communities and directories. Plus the automation features make it easy to contact members and keep everyone informed and the communities help members from around the world stay connected sharing the latest updates, tips and tricks.

Cons

I noticed that content management system/website section is not as powerful or customizable without serious HTML or coding knowledge compared to other web platforms.
