Adam Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 Hey up guys. A friend of mine is looking for something along the lines of what SocialEngine offers. Does anyone have any experience / reviews / alternative recommendations? The idea of it being more like software you install, as opposed to a PHP framework is the key. Thanks Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted July 23, 2012 Author Share Posted July 23, 2012 Ok, I will assume it's awesome then and blame you all if not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xyph Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Well, SocialEngine claims no programming experience required, so my guess is it's more like 'software you install' than a 'framework a programmer would implement.' I avoid social networking at all costs, so I simply can't help you, sorry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kicken Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 Some friends of mine have bought and use Social Engine. There are a lot of plugins for it but they don't seem particularlly well developed. They have had quite a few bugs pop up on them with the plugins and a few with the core system. It's slow as all hell too. Some pages take 20-30 seconds to load. Granted they are on shared hosting right now (I'm working on setting up a dedicated server for them) but that's still pretty awful imo. I personally find the code base to be very hard to follow too but that may be more my lack of ever doing anything with Zend framework and it's MVC / Plugin stuff.
