The API, Zapier, and Webhook integration, plus the ability to customize, are important. In addition, it seems to have completed much of the heavy lifting, so you can focus on customization over development, which is a definite plus. It has the majority of important functionality integrated, which allowed us to choose it over using some of the other applications in which we had to invest more development time and effort. > > **Cons**: We are still exploring and haven't found many negative points yet. Besides the development aspect, there is not much documentation around the scripting capabilities that allow us to use some of the classes or pull from the system, but it could be that we don't know where it lives yet. Video capabilities could improve, but this may be on the roadmap, and the application does quite a few things well. We are a development agency, so we are very familiar with many applications in the industry. Many of the features and functionality are familiar, so moving around is not an issue, unlike someone who may not have that experience. But at the moment, we haven't found too many bad points worth outlining, and we want to resolve them first before putting them under the application limitation. > > We are still in the application's development phase. Still, we are pretty impressed. It is a comprehensive and solid application that integrates well without many issues you would experience, even with the big players. Many of its features work out of the box by simply adding your keys and configuration. If things continue the way we currently experienced our onboarding and work, we look forward to seeing how fruitful it can be. ----- ### "The ultimate LEGO for your business" β€” 5.0/5 > **LourenΓ§o** | *28 April 2025* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: It's a full potential platform, not only for creating directories but also courses, community, blog and landing pages. I like the ability to customize, LEGO like which enables you to create anything in the context that this platform allows. I see also in a way that can be scalable starting with digital products then a blog then, community and directory. I like the documentation that allow you to find anything you want to create along a with a five star team that is always ready to help. This also give me trust that in the future this platforma will be even better because the team is actively trying to make this a better and better tool. > > **Cons**: I guess is the learning curve, and I'm still managing to navigate on it to create a simple community and a blog, but this is nothing to do with BD but to the learning that must be done by me and that is innerent any platform of this kind. Some are easier I admit then others BD is so far a average learning curve. Although I'm seeing that once you start mastering the principles the rest is transversal to the all platform. > > I'm still on the learning curve testing it out if it can be or not a good fit and user friendly to use has a community platform, I have something to twerk like how to manage a decent community and that can be used in a way that my users can access it easily and with less learning curve as possible. ----- ### "Very Comprehensive and with time easy to use interface" β€” 5.0/5 > **Marco** | *28 April 2025* | Construction Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: At first it’s intimidating for no developer person but I really love that they provide with lots of tutorials and constant webinars, that really make it easy to follow > > **Cons**: I would love to see the new design / front end themes capabilities that they said it’s coming along now that the rest of the back end it’s pretty robust > > It’s definitely a learning curve as everything in life but I love that you would deal with the headache of other methods building directories like Wordpress which I tried for many years and it was just a headache, can not believe why took me so long to find BD. ----- ### "My Experience With Brilliant Directories" β€” 5.0/5 > **Vicki** | *19 December 2024* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Everything\! They are ahead of the game and have thought of what I needed for my Directory, before I even realized that I needed the feature..as they had already taken care of including the features in the many directions \& levels I wish to take my site. They have included so many features and abilities to edit the site to my specifications, that hiring a developer to customize is usually not necessary. Their website is so robust, can handle all of these manipulations- I've worked with many websites and BD is far the strongest. The esthetics is beautiful and comes with wide variety of options/color palettes. I found myself on 1st page after setting up in a few days- the SEO setup is amazing with BD. > > **Cons**: Absolutely nothing that I can honestly think of > > Their are so many levels of active, prompt, and caring support. From the BD bot in the site, to the FB community, to the support ticket staff. The staff are always so polite, positive, thorough, and complete in their response and remedy of support tickets. They make sure that your answers get resolved. I have not ever had this high level of support before from any other business and I have worked online with many online businesses (software/website developers) since 2008. The founder really cares about this success and functions of his directory with his buyers/customers- he is 100% active answering questions and always looking for ways to expand and improve with the needs of his customers. \[sensitive content hidden\] is always present and very hands on in helping his customers\! ----- ### "a dream come true for online business" β€” 5.0/5 > **Gus** | *9 December 2024* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: As soon as I got into brilliant directories, I immediately had 80%+ of my membership site done. The ease of use and add-ons is ridiculously insane and worth the investment. It beats having to pay for multiple subsc riptions for Wordpress plugins. > > **Cons**: If I could see a bit more modern and minimal looks of the sites aesthetic it would make it a dream come true. Lastly, the only learning curve was some of the language is different from what I used to on wordpress, but honestly, NO BIGGIE > > It has been a lifesaver, and beyond more than I could have bargained for. I needed to buy more for my projects and dreams. ----- Page: 1 / 33\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ae/software/133173/brilliant-directories?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ae/software/133173/brilliant-directories) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
