I've a year old myBB board with around 500 members on it but little content - why? Because of Facebook. The myBB site was intended to migrate an existing community site that has out-grown FB in terms of functionality, and that FB group has around 15,000 members but we're struggling to shift them across 'because it's not like FB and doesn't work on your phone'. As part of the site is about people finding work then having tagged style push notifications is a big deal.
So - even before I make my eyes go square watching endless demo's and options for trials - what do I need to know?
I guess a basic question is: what's an honest opinion on the android and ios apps? Do they really work and work well, and once signed up, do they provide the push and 'instant gratification factor' that you get from FB mobile?
Then I guess the next question would be how easy is it to migrate, what tools there are, does VB have native import capabilities for myBB or do you need to faff around with third party stuff?
What's the admin learning curve like? etc etc.
After that, I'd be happy with any advice and pointers from the hive mind here, I'm sure I can't be the first to be in this position!
Thanks folks, Rock.
