After playing around with Forento for about a week-or-so now, I believe it is safe to say that this platform was thoughtfully created.

Pros:
+ It quite possibly has everything you may need out of a platform from the front-end website builder to the course builder.
+ A big plus point that the team replies very fast when you reach out to them for any questions.
+ I was very glad to find out that I could upload my own fonts to keep with my branding. Same goes for being able to use your brand colors.
+ The website builder is very customizable that leaves a lot of leg room for your creativity.

Cons:
- Only Stripe and PayPal can be used right out gate. The fix for this is to get an add-on that allows you to collect payment using other payment methods, but then you will need another integration tool (Zapier) to automate the workflow. It seems a little too much. If you could just make available more payment method integrations, this could easily be fixed, I think, since (from what I can tell from previous reviews) it's not paying Forento the commission that's the problem but the availability of other payment integrations.
- Perhaps my biggest complaint is that you cannot change the currency for your courses / products / sessions / etc. until and unless you have integrated your Stripe or PayPal account. I think this should be one of the easy, intuitive parts of the platform which, unfortunately, is not. I fail to understand the need to integrate Stripe / PayPal prior just so I can list the price of my course / services in our local currency especially if it is only for cosmetics. (1) Not everyone trades in USD; (2) Not everyone has access to Stripe or PayPal; (3) Not everyone has interest in using either Stripe or PayPal.

Overall, would still definitely recommend the platform especially if you are not particular about the payment methods or changing your currency.
