Just what I was looking for!

I have tried several products on App Sumo but haven't liked most of them. I wasn't sure what I was looking for exactly. Something to help me turn my business into a way to passively sell content, and actively offer coaching sessions. Most of the sites I used were just overly complicated. I needed something simple. So when I started using Forento, it was mostly what I wanted.

The platform allows you to use your own videos and you can upload them or use the link. Some people might want an all inclusivie way to create videos, but I didn't care that much for that because I already have content that I created and edited myself using a video editing tool. It's very easy to upload your own videos, PDF's, and other content and offer to your audience. I wasn't sure what the difference between Text, Input, and Custom options were - honestly, I'm still confused. I tend to stick with whatever is easy, so I only use Text or Video for my courses. Setting up modules is very easy and Forento has a ton of tutorials which I still have to dig into and use.

The team at Forento is very responsive. I had a simple question, but they answered it within 24 hours (probably sooner than that!). I like the option to preview my content as well. Accepting payments is done solely through Stripe which is fine by me, but if that's an issue, I'm not sure if they will be adding more in the future. I bought 3 codes, so that limits what I get. No memberships, bundles, community, or website. I'm not sure if I'll need those in the future so I'm contemplating adding more codes.

Overall, this is a fantastic product and I'm so glad I'm finally able to create and publish my courses, products, and services. FYI, the getting started dashboard is great! Love seeing what else I can do that I wasn't aware of.

Devs are fantastic

I had a few feature requests, they were implemented within a few days! What more can you ask for? The app is well featured and does the job really well, looking forward to see what is coming up.

Pretty Good So Far

So far the software is pretty good. There are some features I really wish it had.

1. A more robust text editor - currently when creating a course under the text section there is a lot left to be desired. There is not a WYSWYG editor and it doesn't even use markdown. so sections look really boring. Considering the website editor has about 1000 times more options. This wouldnt be hard to implement.

2. More options for content creation in general - Right now the app really makes you depend on creating content outside of their platform and then brining it in. It's a lot of extra steps as the content creator.

3. Better content creation for the community section - This section again doesnt have much.

Over all its a decent platform. It's just lacking when it comes to content creation. The website editor is an open sourced platform that you can get in a lot of different places for free and it has a lot of options but they didnt make this. I wish the rest of the platform was that easy and intuitive for creating content.

So far so good

I'm early in the journey but super impressed so far - support has been great, help articles are comprehensive and well written. Everything works - which always helps :-) I haven't hit any roadblocks yet. I will update comments later on in the journey. I think it is well worth reading the founder's article and looking at the commercial pricing on the website to understand the discount codes and what functionality will work for you. I'll probably add on the upgrade monthly subscription packs (read the article) when revenue grows - it takes a little while to understand the structure but once you do it makes sense. The product bundling and Zapier are two things I want but when I mapped it out, it still seemed good value to get the lifetime licenses and upgrade to that later on once I've proven my products out. So far that feels great in terms of value for money.

Thanks Adrian and team.
Ben
