Not Ready for Primetime
I hate to be the party pooper, but this product just isn't ready for primetime. While they have improved since June, many of the core features promised 6 months ago are still being kicked down the road, which is a concerning sign:
1. There is no way to monetize your site despite much hype about this "aspirational" feature to eventually be implemented.
2. There are no ways to send direct, private messages.
3. There are no ways to customize the gamification yet. At all.
The list goes on and on, folks. They have a very pretty and clean interface. But it is severely lacking and, with all due respect, will only serve the needs of the most basic, free, open forum community.
I hate to leave a review like this. I tested the product with great care. There are too many To Do items and not enough Done items for me to justify keeping this tool.

May 9, 2024Hi Jason, thank you so much for leaving us an honest review!
We're working really hard to address all of our user's issues and requests so we can improve the overall experience within our product. However, as much as we'd love to implement all of the requests, we're a small team and it is difficult to work on big features and also make improvements to the existing systems all at the same time. Our app hasn't been out for very long, and we just need time to work on the new features and address all the issues at hand, which we've been steadily working on and have pushed out several improvements since our previous AS campaign.
We really treasure everyone giving us a chance and believing in Beam.gg's potential as much as we do. We're just getting started, and we appreciate all feedback so we can make Beam.gg the best it can be!
Thanks again for taking the time to write us a review, we hope you'll give us another shot after we've had time to improve our platform!
