Abk-soft

Let me add my humble review of these russian scammers - software doesn't work, support is non-existent, and they spam many forums,... with their "5-star reviews of Abk":)
So, if you want to buy their crappy SW, you can, but it's a huuuge waste of money.

SCAM company. Software never worked, instructions for downloads missing and they run you around to get the information. After checking further into them, I bailed after a few days and contacted my credit card company to issue a refund since they have scam things filed with the better Business Bureau. And supposedly the FBI fraud thing, but I didn't follow up on checking that one out.

Chameleon Social is certainly the best software for social and dating sites out there now. Why? One can not create a site now without any 3D, Augmented Reality, and Virtual Reality features. It is 2017 people! Get back to Earth. No one is interested in more websites with just HTML pages and that is it. The web is developing into something new, not just pages. Ever heard about Pokemon GO? This is what is happening now. Everything is becoming more real, more 3D and multi faceted. This is why I chose this software for its 3D and interactive features. For example all of the members of my website just LOVE the Street Chat feature. They can use their own faces, their own streets and places of their own city, and chat. No one else has it now and probably will never have. But if you want a simple website with just HTML pages you could probably use another script, like SkaDate or PHPFox.

I bought their program. Part of it works, their claim that it is customizable is a crock of &^%*. I've hired a coder, he says this is a hodge podge of many different scripts, making it very difficult to modify. The modification you can do through their dashboard is practically nothing. You can change the background photo. That's it. When I purchased this, I was told I could purchase unique design anytime in the future. That's not true either. Apparently all their coders left the company. Run Run very fast, but do not buy this software unless you can afford to throw away your money. By the way, most of the programs they advertise don't actually work in real life.

Make sure you have your password correct, it will elevate all the chaos of starting up such a rewarding adventure. I am glad I choose the Chameleon Software it has positive affirmations across the web, I am a research junkie so do your research and once you decide go with it and don't let anything stop you, I hope all your dreams come true and you have amazing business success.

I have been a long time customer since 2008. I highly recommended abk and chamleon website. Fast respond time to tickets and issues. I love them wish we lived closer to have a drink together excellent bunch of guys.
Thank you,

This company is a known scammer company per the BBB website. We also got scammed by them. It's a Russian company pretending to be in America. Don't take my word for it, check out the link below.

This company will steal your money.

Good script but not so good support. Yes I understand the price is EXTRA low (datingpro.com costs 10 times more with all the features Chameleon offers) but I would prefer to pay 200 bucks more and get a faster support. Some tickets may take as long as 24(!) hours to reply. Yes there are many clients but a slightly higher price could afford them to hire more people.

Also they almost do not do modifications and I have to use freelancer.com. It is ok, but would be a lot better if they themselves could help with this. Those who know the script can do things a lot faster.

Ok I'm not tech savvy, but I know what I wanted & what I needed.
I could not praise these guys high enough. I've been what I believe to be a royal pain in the?&? As I don't understand tech talk! But... Support, performance & design are bang on!
I've got what I needed, although I feel many more tech questikns to follow, but I would not hesitate to recommend these guys, especially to all none tech people!

Your staff -- Albert Belkin is a very very helpful guy. He is a great supporting staff. He help us many many times and solve our problem in nice manner.

We are very appreciate his technical knowledge and service manner!

But the other staff -- Andrew Bonsky is unfriendly and Unhelpful services. I can't feel any nice service manner from him for many times.

I purchased when they called it abledating, now they changed their website name to chameleon and say I am not entitled to the same product and demand another $247 dollars (NO THANKS). The support is non existent, and they are outright rude.

I wished I had never WASTED $247 on this poor script.

Stay away is all I ask of others out there, don't get burnt like we all did.

The support we receive from this company have the best support and the products are truly great any person should use there services because you will find this kind of support or products any where on the internet thank you guys we are really thankful for helping us to get setup so quick and fast you. There are one person a want to thank is Andrew your company should by greatful so having a person like you in the support team. Thank you Andrew Bonsky.

Incredibly bad software that communicates with servers and only makes problems. I action of lawyers, because I supposedly my clients about contact mails Never again!

Great script, I am using it on 4 websites now. My app Meetking has more than a 1,000,000 downloads, you can see it on Google Play. It uses the older Urban template.
Highly recommended.

I do like both your software and support, but I think you can greatly improve the approval rate of your software, and cut down on support needed, by putting question marks throughout the software, when someone puts their pointer over the question mark, either a float, or popup tells the user, whether admin or a member, what that section does, and how to use it.

Then everyone would be able to easily familiarize themselves with the software; which in turn, means happy customers. At the very least their should be two downloadable pdf's (one for admin, one for members) with screenshots throughout explaining how to use the software.

Just my opinion, but your clients don't want to have to keep turning to support every time they are trying to do something, anymore than I'm sure you guys like spending your time answering support questions.

Provide one or the other that I've described above, and I guarantee your testimonials will go through the roof, and you will have all kinds of clients becoming affiliates as well.

I have been using the Websplosion platform for a few months now, and overall I am very pleased with it. It has a good range of features and any problems can expect a timley response that gets straight to the point, which is important.

I do currently have one suggestion, after google announcing it's importance of mobile site optimization recently (April 21st). It got me looking into how my site looked in this regard. Currently the mobile version of the site offered by websplosion is functional but does look very dated and screams in need of an update to haul into 2015.

Over the last few years I think websites could get away with maybe not having a strong mobile version but now that is not the case and every site definitely needs a strong mobile offfering or face decline.

The standard templates (as viewed desktop wise) are very good and I'm very pleased with them. There is a lot of content you choose to add or leave out depending on which direction your site is going.

4/5 stars because there is always some room for improvement but overall very good!

Fantastic for the price. I would expect to pay a lot more for all the features it offers. Install is fairly easy, if you know what you are doing. I wish the fake profiles were cheaper, but again, for what you get, everything is very fairly priced. I disagree with the other review that said the support is slow. I usually receive a response within 24 hours.

I have tried other dating software - there's a WordPress theme that I tried that I won't name - and to be honest, it doesn't even come close to Chameleon. Multilingual, ip-database for location detection, email services, affiliate program etc. Really awesome work, guys. If only marketing the dating site after it's set up were so easy.*

If there was one thing I don't like it would be the fact that you can only install the software on one website per license. I have so many ideas for niche sites and I wish I could try them all at once, but that's too pricey for me. I understand you have to make money though and it's a more than fair price.

*Btw, offering marketing services to your clients would be a great way to make money on the back end. I personally don't need it because I'm an online marketer by trade, but it'd be a great way to keep to price lower than your competitors and increase your profits. SEO, Analyitics, Adwords campain management, landing page design, social media management, lead acquisition etc.

I would like to share my opinion about chameleon dating and social software it is made by the websplosion Limited. It's a decent piece of software where you can change a lot of things like the main page image the colors, font, you can disable features, you can enable features... basically I think that is why it is called chameleon in the first place.

The only thing that I would like to improve is the lack of more templates now you can just change the main image and that is all but it would be great to have more templates like most social templates. More dating, more Intranet templates. If I were to compare chameleon with some other company or product I would compare them with apple because Apple also is very closed, for example it's very difficult to 2 change things to customize things on Android you can change a lot of things you can it's more it's more Elastic, more customizable. In Apple iOS and Mac OS you are very limited within the system, they are perfect, they cool but you are inside of the system so to speak, you can of change much, the same happens with chameleon as I think.

On the whole it's a very good piece of software especially taking into consideration the price but this is the thing I would like to change - to add more templates, more different templates and make them even more customizable. This would improve chameleons a lot and would help to become the best software in the world, which of course they want to be. So basically I will give a good 4 to the software. It would be 5 if they had like 5 more templates at least. Each of which needs to be customizable.

I've been on the hunt for a true turnkey solution for many years now, and the price was the first thing that struck me about the Chameleon product. At just a fraction of the cost of many other scripts, the Chameleon social / dating software gives you everything you need for your website to hit the ground running.

There are many templates out of the box, which gave me a wide range to launch many different websites with little to no hassle. Video and audio chats are also included where it's a paid extra at any other software script bundle. If you are planning on launching multiple dating sites, there's really no better software solution to get the job done quick.

Free hosting and mobile apps are yet another reason why Chameleon dating software is really the most cost efficient yet effective means of launching your social networking website.
Best of all support is free and it's for the lifetime of your install, which is really unheard of in this industry. The developers are really on top of their game, because I've gotten 3 updates since my install, which gives me the confidence to build knowing I won't be stuck with a legacy system.
Simply put the Chameleon product is superior in so many ways that there's really no reason why you should choose another solution. Easily one of the most comprehensive software packages available, I wouldn't hesitate to turn to Chameleon for my next website project.

The only real drawback to me is the fact that you'll need an individual license to launch an additional website, which I wish I knew before making the purchase for my second website. If you are planning on launching multiple sites, buy the licenses up front and get the discount up front.

I have been using the Chameleon software with the Oryx template now for a few weeks (not sure what name the company goes by) and have been testing extensively and I find it is very nice software. Takes a little getting used to using the admin section and it could probably be laid out a bit better. I am not an expert on PHP or HTML programming but I have been able to make modifications to the template to suit my needs. I have asked many questions over the past few weeks (They probably fear looking at my name in their email LOL) and they have all been answered pretty promptly, although in some cases the answer could be a little clearer since unlike them, we do not know this software inside and out. So far I have found a few bugs in the software and they were dealt with pretty fast. It is a unfortunate however that there is no User Manual available that outlines the majority of features available in the software especially for the Admin section, when running into something you don't quite understand a ticket has to be submitted where this could have been explained in such a manual. (Searching the support forum or FAQ usually doesn't answer the question) one example in the admin options there is an option for "Smart profile" or "Simple profile", an explanation with a question mark would be helpful or a peak in the Manual would be nice.
Before purchasing the software I did a lot of research comparing different software packages and found some posts that talked about this company pretty negatively, not sure who posted them or where they got their information. Over all I have to say I am pleased with the software and the technical support I have received so far.

I've been using this software for about a month, and overall, pleased with the package. There are a few drawbacks that must be overcome.

Without an in-depth user manual, this software can be very confusing during initial setup. Learning the use of its many features comes down to trial and error. If the site administrator is confused, think of how the new users feel and how quickly they'll move on in frustration.

Support tickets, at times, are confusing with short, non-verbose answers.

The following is an actual example:

My first post,
I've seen the check boxes, in the administrator cPanel, where I can assign specific users as moderators of photos and text. I've assigned three users this capability and when they login there is a "Moderator" link on their home page.
When they click on this link, they're taken to a page with three buttons, "Moderator Photo", "Moderator Essay" and "Save". Clicking on any of these links, causes the page to refresh, but nothing else.
Realizing there was no new user to approve, I created a "test profile" waiting for approval, and again, nothing happens.
How do these three moderators use the assigned capabilities?
The reply,
Please activate in menu "Main > Options > Site options":
- The texts need to be checked
- The photos need to be checked

Second post,
As I said in the first post; I've checked the boxes. Now, I want to know how to use this ability.
Second reply,
Please make sure that these options active in "Main > Options > Site options.

Third post,
Are these "canned responses"? This is twice you've sent this type of reply and this is the third time I've said, "Yes, the boxes are checked."
What I need to know is, "How do the moderators use the software to approve/disapprove photos or text?" A step-by-step would be great!
Third reply,
Member upload photo in profile or change text fields and these values appear on moderator page.

Forth post,
Thank you. I have tested it and understand how it works now.
This ticket can be closed.

As you can see, my third post expressed my frustration.

Next issue: As an administrator, I've rearranged the top navigation menu order, but an additional option should be: the ability to move menu items to a drop-down sub menu location. For instance, move "Groups" below the "Forums".

As with any software, I understand there is a learning curve, but an in-depth manual is definitely needed.

I purchased ABK-soft's dating software on the understanding I could develop it for my own requirements, but this is easier said than done.

First of all, the software is pretty comprehensive, but full of errors (as I found out later). It is not expensive, however so you gets what you paid for, and I paid for 'Unique Design'.

The designers take FOREVER to do the slightest bit of work, and it took nearly a month for the photos etc. to be added to the site, but to be honest that is not where it all fell down.

Where it got really interesting is when I tried to use 'abk-experts' do do some developing. Nothing special, just a change in general flavour of the site and the odd tweak. They told me the job will take a couple of weeks, but it took then up to FIVE DAYS to respond to your questions and comments. I became very clear that I could not proceed with any confidence in these 'experts' (although once again they were pretty cheap).

My advice - get this software on OpenSource, or buy it from abk but on the understanding you will have to pay a PHP developer £1,000 or so helping you sort it out! Don't expect any help from abk - they won't even give you an email address to make a complaint!

ABK-SOFT company is a total SCAM and the director and employees are Russian. There is only the company that is illegally residing in the United States. The Chameleon software is also a very very big scam!
