SkaDate

It was a very long and hard way to get any success in my online business when I started it 7 years ago for the first time. I tried out a lot of options offered on the Internet thinking that key for success is just a software. But, had no luck. 3 years ago I started working with Skadate and it was outstanding contribution to my business. I came with my idea and now I can make millions of people happy. My website is not a dating-related website, but the beauty of Skadate is that they can bring any idea to live! Thank you guys for making our lives easier and allowing me to believe in myself. God Bless you!

I have tried them all. These are all simple pieces of software in case you don't happen to have $100,000 to develop your own dating site. I can say that Skadate is the most professional company in terms of support and the product is definitely the best among its class. I've started a site for my town and it keeps signing up users after some basic SEO.

I would love to tell you not to get into the online dating business as that would just mean more competition. But that being said, if you are heading in that direction, rather than a website built from the ground up, I can do nothing but recommend SkaDate. Not only was the process of getting started simple and easy, I can not say enough about their customer and support services. These alone and their willingness to help make them 5 stars! What qualifies me to recommend them, I am a former Director and CIO of a large organization.

I HIGHLY recommend SkaDate to anyone!
The admin panel is easy to use. I got the hang of it pretty quick. Their themes are stunning, especially Mosaic - love it to bits. I was also very impressed with their support. I've read a lot of negative feedback about people saying that SkaDate is not helpful and that they charge expensive fees for support, that is simply NOT TRUE! I had to wait a few hours to get replies on my questions, but I got a friendly, helpful and professional answer every time! I would like to extend a warm thank you to Anna at SkaDate for all the time she has invested in helping me get my site up and running. Guys, you won't regret going with SkaDate. They are the best solution out there.

I bought the skadate software with very little knowledge of how to manage, and it set up. The staff without any hesitation assisted me throughout the process, answered my question and even after my support has expired they continue to provide a helping hand with the issues I encounter. Very friendly staff, excellent customer service and tends to all the queries. Great job and thumbs up to you.

Nice script with an ability to get third party gateway integrations.
By default I got PayPal and CCBill out of box.
Was granted a bonus gateway as a gift on pre-sales stage.
Then ordered 2 more gateways for about $40 from other developers.
Will not be using CCBill, but 3 other gateways are working well. Received first payments last week.

I have been ramping up my site in which I purchased the template from skadate. I have been working with a project manager, Margareth, through this process thus far and I cant say enough good things about the support I've received and how user friendly the set-up part is for a non techy like myself. It's unique as it's not a "dating site" per say, however they have been great during this transition and getting me everything I've needed thus far. Let's hope this momentum and support keeps up! Thank you Margareth!

The support is currently $99 per month and while that seems quite a lot, the support I have received in this last ticket has been 'outstanding' and well worth it! I was allocated Lora who has been unbelievably helpful even offering extra help (regarding css and ways around things etc) where possible.

If you have a few things to work through, the costs comes down to just cents per issue and the support is absolutely top professional. There are a couple of bugs with the actual software but the support which I have received has been fantastic! Professional and straight to the point yet still friendly and if you are lucky enough to get Lora, you'll be sorted!

For 300 bucks (I got it during black friday), I got exactly what I wanted - a script that I can play around with and start a site. Also, I managed to setup everything within the first month of free support, so I don't know if support changes ones the free one runs out. But yeah, they installed it for me and helped with some of the options. If I had to take a jab at this soft, it'd be complex admin panel, but with this amount of options I choose to ignore most of it and work with the stuff I need, which you learn after first few tries.

Thank you for helping us started with the apps. First we chose to go full-mobile and wanted to build business like Tinder. We later changed to full scale dating site and apps, which what we should have done in the first place. Anyway, they went with us all the way through all the changes for which we are grateful.

I purchased the software and was told I could customize it. Well I can't! There are sooo many glitches. I was given false information! I have asked for a refund and they will not honor it. This company is a scam! Don't flush $399 down the toilet like I did!

As stated I would add to the update if things changed. Since my first review over a year ago the Skadate team has been helpful and responsive. There has been a few additional plugins made by developers. Additionally Skadate also made a few custom modifications which were delivered on time and worked as agreed. As before, I will add to this over time.

So far Skadate has been good to me. They do install for you, Great templates vs the price they're asking for them and the Admin panel is awesome. I do understand the other review in reference to not being easy to customize due to html, css code etc. and if you're not experienced in that you do have to either pay skalfa to do it or find someone that knows how. This is only if you want to modify the available template(s). Other than that I look forward to my PeeDee site to make a hell of a lot of money for me and my family

I have used skadate for at lest 5 yrs. Spent thousands and made no money, I have two web sites.
I have spent so much money in support/sites/apps/ web developers. I have wasted money with Skadate Seo support that was just a waste of money no effect ( felt; ike i was scammed totally with the seo. When complained they didnt care they had my money and that was that. The money and time I have spent with his company is very sad. I 14 thousand unhappy members on my dating site. Complete waste of time/money. Very disappointing. You would think Skadate would want there there clients to make money. I wonder if anyone other than Skadate are making money. I know in 5 years i haven't.

Perfect back end software for matriomonial dating sites.
Quick pros:
- available extensions for some extra security (ex: Twilio based sms verificaitons).
- email verificaiton, profile + content approval that come out of the box.
- my desiner also liked an easy tool for CSS changes ( personally I have no idea what this is but it does seem to work peferctly well: smiley:

Noticable thing that is missing in default package and must be ordered additionally
- multiple step registration process ( currently only 2 steps, but I need more since i have a lot of questions users must answer during join)

All in all i liked the way I was guided throug all the processes by support team.
Am doing apps right now and might edit the review if something happens.

They resolved the issues with the apps.

The bigger issue is they need to resolve why they make apps in operatable while they do the needed updates for a newer version.

I did not have a problem with the customer service at Skadate and always had my reply by the morning. The choice of templates is good also and once you find the one for you, if it does everything you need you could be happy... BUT if you are looking to recode an existing template... that's where the trouble starts... I was passed to SODTECH a team of programmers in Kerala, India with head offices in Bangladesh and it was an absolute disaster! Luckily I agreed to pay 50% deposit of my estimated $6,000 (yes that's right six thousand USD) and the rest of the balance at completion of the job.
As an Architect I would have thought that I know how to communicate with drawings, screenshots, I even wrote a manual for them stage by stage showing what needed to be recoded, it may sound very complicated but it was simply to change a few things one of which was to put the information for the Couple's profile side by side for Him and for Her, but it created a huge communication problem.
To cut a long story short after 5 months they managed to destroy even those existing features that were already working very well in Skadate that even London in UK could no longer be found!
If you need to re-code an existing template from Skadate, think again!

This script is pretty complicated, I like scripts that are more simple to modify and free. Something like A-Dater http://www.a-dater.com

I have skadate and support very good and they always helped me if i ask! I don't know why people say lie? This good software!

Bonjour,

J'ai une erreur 404 lorsque l'on cherche mon site via les mobiles.

J'ai contacté le support, mais, il ne semble pas comprendre le problème...

Avez vous déjà rencontré ce problème, cela vient-il de l'hébergement ou du script?

I have had this software for about 4 years. I was great and first and then troublesome, mostly speed. I have 8 core and 8 gigs of ram. They address every single issue I had and it is pretty much trouble-free. I have paid for most of the other similar available software and the troublesome issues never got resolved.

This is now generating some funds more than the expenses.

I recommend this for niche markets. My site is www.adventistdating.com and it works well, lots of success stories. Have about 20,000 members. That is a sample of a niche, it could be any group.

As I said, all major issues fixed, would recommend this for those who want to generate some income and serve your niche.

They have good script, good help, and they did installation for me on their hosting. Also logo and background change and initial app customization. Basically ready for launch expat site in Georgia, so happy with everything so far. Recommended for starting with smaller budget. Thanks.
