SubHub Reviews

I have lost thousands of dollars on Appsumo due to “lifetime deals” that ended up being no where near a lifetime. Losing this one and the Run the World software has completely upended my business. I just received an email from SubHub about it shutting down. Honestly, their refusal to add basic features has been infuriating, but I was making it work to cut down on website costs. I was hoping to get another few years out of my 3-tier deal before I could justify upgrading to a Shopify or other e-commerce web-builder account with more bells and whistles. Now, I have to race to find another solution that isn’t going to break the bank?!? This is beyond unprofessional and insulting to those of us running businesses. I literally have no idea what I’m going to do. And, now, all my product promotion will be a complete waste. Who knows when the final day will be. I will have to scramble to find a replacement.

3 codes lost, I'm losing thousands on Appsumo.

…citing an aging platform and competition - two things which really should be part of any business plan.

Does anyone else feel like “lifetime” means two different things on either side of an AppSumo deal?

"we’ve made the decision to close down the SubHub platform."

Waste of time and money

I have been using Sub-hub for a year and I can give you a real experience about this platform with its pros and cons:

PROS:
1.- The support is amazing, fast and effective. The platform is in continuous evolution, and they consider the proposals or ideas that you make and if those are reasonably affordable they update it.
2.- For conducting a website is a great tool but if you consider the integration of subscriptions, store, groups creation, etc. This makes the platform more adaptable than any other online course solution or store platform (Such as thinkific, udemy, etc).
3.- The platform is quite versatile; I use it for online courses, but you can personalize it perfectly for many other purposes since it provides: online store, forums, landing pages, etc.

CONS:
1.- Although they have conducted important and very good updates, the student experience navigating through a course, making comments, etc. is not as good as other platforms for specifically selling individual courses.
2.- You cannot follow the student evolution or provide automatically student certificates when they complete the course.
3.- You cannot automatically create invoices for the courses sold.
4.- You cannot create a multi-language site with different pages or courses for different languages even though you can translate (not completely) to another language.

Nothing is perfect and adaptable to all needs, but the balance of SubHub is without a doubt 5 tacos.
