Re: BuddyPress Competition is heating up
Been using jomsocial since it’s early beta stage (almost 2 years) and now switching to buddypress for a huge community site.
Don’t like that twitter, ’cause to have “jomsocial + wordpress goodness by corephp” you have to spend $218,99 compared to $0,00 for buddypress.
However, what I like of jomsocial is that it already comes with built-in must-have applications/plugins for a community such as videos, photos, events (besides standard ones like groups, forums, pm). Plugins all developed by the same developers (come built-in with the installer). Instead with buddypress you depend on plugin’s developers (events, photos, privacy….) and what if they’ll stop supporting/updating them? Also in jomsocil the users is given the possibility to add what application they want to their profile.
