What do you like best about Forj?

There are many ways to engage, inspire and discuss. Using gifs & images to brighten the feed - it is so easy to make announcements and discussions engaging and fun. Communicating privately and as a community and providing a safe place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Forj?

The big jump in price from free to paid. I love all the features on the free plan and would happily pay for more, but it's a huge leap that just isn't worth it for a small community like mine. I really want to have timed emails! A recent problem in the last week is the huge support button covers up the cancel/post options! I have to change my screen size to be able to post replies to private comments which is very very annoying. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Forj:

I was a member of a Mobilize community before I used it for my own community so was familiar with the features and functionality. It's so easy to set up a free account to try and I must admit I have found it such fun to use - there really is delight in communicating and supporting others. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Forj solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am was so pleased to be able to move away from Facebook and Mobilize offers a secure place for community conversation. I love being able to make announcements - the email functionality is brilliant for prompting engagement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Forj?

The interface for Mobilize is easy to use, especially for those accustomed to social media apps. The free tier is quite adequate and gives an excellent opportunity to put it through its paces before committing. The support is also prompt and helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Forj?

Some management is only in the web interface rather than through the app. It works; it just takes a little time to work out how to find things. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Forj solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use Mobilize for our community group. Because it is a closed system the security and privacy are much higher than social media chat environments such as Facebook or What's App. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Forj?

I love the features that allow you to message one-to-one with members, enable you to upload images, documents and videos, and the flexibility to reply on different platforms - from email to app to web interface. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Forj?

I don't like not being able to copy a link and paste it into the body text of a message (it loses the link functionality). Instead, you have to click the link button which takes a little longer (and you have to remember to do it!) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Forj:

Yes I would recommend Mobilize to others - I would ask for a demo and clarify exactly how messages get sent and received on the different platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Forj solving and how is that benefiting you?

Our old networking solution did not allow you to send attachements, polls and it had a line limit on the message thread. Mobilize resolves all these problems :) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Forj?

It has the ability to segregate the emails by a discussion topic, and allows images. And the best feature--it allows the admin to add emails without people having to subscribe and sign up first. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Forj?

Would like the ability to show discussion titles in a list, without having to scroll through them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Forj:

It's the best choice for a notprofit or club with less than 500 users. Cost free and lots of features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Forj solving and how is that benefiting you?

The club had an antiquated list sever, which was brutal to wade through. Picking a cost-free service was impossible-they had limitations on number of people or required signup. And Facebook and Google were automatically eliminated--people hate the companies' policies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Forj?

I've worked with Mobilize since 2017 and the one thing that has always stood out is the clarity of their product vision. They know where they're headed and how they want to get there - both in the people the bring on as well as their product roadmap. Every feature that's developed is intentionally executed on to accomplish a very specific goal while still keeping an eye on future opportunities.

The product itself builds on what we all instinctively know - communication allows for endless improvement and I see them building their platform to break down every digital barrier - both obvious and latent- that impedes our ability to connect with others to reach our fullest potential. Mobilize is really more than a product, it's an understanding of what makes great connections happen. Whether you're trying to connect with your customers or collaborate with colleagues, this is the tool that will help you do it.

Also worth noting is their exceptional staff. They're hardworking, collaborative, and forward-thinking.

I cannot say enough good things about this company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Forj?

I have no criticism to share at this point. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Forj:

Managing a community takes time and dedication. Make sure that you have the resources to devote to this effort. Simpling standing up a community is not enough - you have to be thoughtful, intentional, and have a clear vision for what you're trying to accomplish. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Forj solving and how is that benefiting you?

We're able to connect with our customers in a secure and private, yet easily accessible way. We use Mobilize to build brand awareness and further our product development research efforts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Forj?

Easy to use, right on hand information, contacts, sharing points.

It´s perfect on the laptop and on the cellphone.

Easy to use, reading, and charging documents.

I really love the look and field of the application, on all my devices.

I'm very satisfied with the inscription process, my community gets easily into the app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Forj?

Nothing at all... I would love more institutions could use it. I would love to have it all in Spanish. I would love to have a Spanish video training, microcapsules to send to the new members of our community. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Forj:

Mobilize is a great tool for your organization, install it, practice, and enjoy it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Forj solving and how is that benefiting you?

Managing our community, sharing information, events, and opportunities to exchange resources. Is an easy access point for our learning community. Give us prestige, seriousness, and projection in our community.

It's a great opportunity to keep our organization together, working on our objectives and mission.

Actually, we are solving the communication/conversation problem, moving our talking from a group in Whatsapp to Mobilize... and the community is accepting it in a very consistent pace. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Forj?

Intuitive UI, mimics other social media feeds so easy to use. I like the option to announce my post via email as well Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Forj?

I don't like how the preview of a post looks (all plain text) and the right-hand panel that expands to view the entire post. I think it's kind of clunky. Also the "New Activity" scroll is always slightly off and never works the way I expect it to. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Forj solving and how is that benefiting you?

Bringing the emerging tech and federal government community together. We have seen increased community engagement and knowledge sharing as a result. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Forj?

The post to email function and the reply from email feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Forj?

The share tool for new members took a while to work at the start. Someone from M had to activate or 'untrigger' our site after it got flagged for some reason. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Forj:

Ask some other members to help you with the administration of the page. Also encourage a calendar of posts to share the sheduling. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Forj solving and how is that benefiting you?

Getting everyone a place to connect on DMs that isn't a social media app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Forj?

We run a writing community on Mobilize which runs regular sprints. Our community loves the platform and so do we as it's really easy to use and has an excellent chat function. We can tailor emails really well, (add gifs!) which makes it a super-friendly environment to be part of. I'd recommend highly to anyone looking to add a community element to their groups. Support is also amazing - even on the free version. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Forj?

Nothing in particular springs to mind.I'd like to have timed functionality on the email but believe this is possible on the paid-for version. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Forj:

I would very much recommend the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Forj solving and how is that benefiting you?

Not really problems. We are running a structured coaching program for writers - academics and creatives - based around a sprint format. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
