"We've tried a couple of other membership tools that were part of packages that we'd invested in. But none of them can compete with the Member. There's certainly plenty of amazing stuff out there that people have built over many years. But when it comes to customizing, if you are using WordPress there's no way to alter this. Naturally, I'm biased, but we've made thousands of dollars through this program."
