Hello everyone!!

Im new on the boards here. Ive had my site for about 6 weeks or so now. My main concern outside of all the bugs and fixes that have been needed to my site, is customer service. I have called and have gotten no response back when Ive a message. I am not currently on hold for about 10 mins now waiting to chat with the operator. Skadate claims to have great customer and that I their customer, is their first priority. It seems the more things I need fixed the less important I feel to the company and whether I have success or not. We are the ones that will make skadate successful, all of us not just a few. I have business associates that are waiting on my word if this software can be a success and if customer can take care of the many issues that pop up. It even takes days anymore to get a quote to modify something. Im sorry for sounding so negative here, but im pretty upset about all of this. Ive had members leave my site over fixes that took days to repair. Im sticking here to see how this goes..Im not happy...anyone care to shed some light on their dealings with skadates customer?  enough said!!!   Undecided

We are fast approaching a year with SKADATE.  We have had approx 70 tickets open with them in that space of time .. some small problems some not so small problems ....  most relate to post "new release" problems.   Where the problems have caused us an issue with our membership base SKADATE have mostly responded appropriately ... and to my satisfaction ...

Yes it can be frustrating and yes sometimes you want to pull your hair out - but I deal with software suppliers each and every day SKADATE are no worse or better ... given the monthly fees that we pay I am happy with the level of Customer Support ....

Overall the experience has been "interesting" ... however if we where not happy with the software, its current level of functionality or level of support - we would be looking elsewhere for a solution.

Of course there is always room for improvement these boards should go a long way to help the SKADATE team understand its customer base ....

Thanks

This is my first run at a dating site, so its all new to me on how long things should take to fix. I just went off of what their ad on skadate when it says instant bug fixes. Soo..ill be more patient I suppose...Overall I do love my sight and the things my members can do on it. I know its a work in progress for skadate..Im not going anywhere. i just want to feel a bit more important then..oh hell..its him again  lol...

ldslovelines,

Not sure Ideas Exchange is the the appropriate board for asking questions about support but I wanted to respond. We are a team of people with quite a workload. Quoting something for modification is one of the most requested inquiries we have. And must I say this is a responsible task.

SkaDate is a complex and really working community software package. We do realize there's a lot of things to do to make the best product in industry, at least we are upfront about that and want to improve. As CEO I find it critical to spend a lot of time communicating with customers, this board gives a good idea why.

I appreciate your patience. Should you have problems feel free to let me know by email so I look into your problem personally. Thanks.

I agree this is probably not the place to vent but when we have tried all other venues, we have no where to go. I am very happy with your software, and you have responded to my issues/bugs on a timely manner for the most part. Some of your techies know what they are doing and others don't. But this happens in all tech support arenas. But the biggest tech support problem I see with your company is that no one answers the phone. I do not call, ever, unless I'm in dire straits. When you can't reach anyone ever, can't leave a message, or if you do somehow get voice mail, no one gets back to you. Hopefully, most admins don't use the phone too much. I submit tickets and that works great, but when you need to talk to someone (site down, not taking payments all of a sudden, etc.) and no one is home, there is a big problem.

Hello Harley
I'm not sure if I understood what you were talking about, just meaningless words. Please, would you be more specific?
Thanks
