I was very satisfied with my total experience with Brilliant Directories. I was referred by a friend of mine who purchased his directory about 3 years ago and had nothing but high reviews for your company.
My partner and I were about to drop $5000 on a custom web developer before I saw Brilliant Directories. I took a look and was instantly impressed. Plus, Dennis answered all my questions and showed my where I could get more support. If you have any concerns, they are willing to help. And I love the depth of their community forums!
Excellent platform and people. All I can say is that they really care. And if something goes wrong they will follow up to make things right. I like a company that doesn't hide and this team is on top of their game. Go BD!
We did a lot of research looking for an online database that would meet the needs of our business. We chose Brilliant Directories due to it's inclusion of online communication tools such as Facebook, Twitter, and others which we plan to use to better communicate with our audience. Another important factor was the ability to customize Brilliant Directories and tailor the look and function of the public site to our specific needs.
Thanks for your feedback, Vince! We specifically developed the software so that anyone can get their website up and running in no time, but still be able to easily and fully customize it however they wish. Glad you're liking it!
I did some research and compared a couple of different sites and found Brilliant Directories easy to deal with, answered questions clearly and easily. There were no hidden cost and their VIP add on deal is very competitive. It's early days but so far very happy with my decision of going with Brilliant Directories.
BrilliantDirectories.com and the services they offer are by far the best in the field. If you're looking to open a business directory for any field or niche then, I speak from experience, BD are the best hands down.
All features and functionalities have been optimized and they've been operating for so long that all bugs and short-comings have been addressed and fixed. You'll start using BrilliantDirectories.com and realise the same, all at a very low cost.
Very happy customer indeed, A+++
Hi Katie! Thanks so much for the kind words! I'll be sure to spread your good words with our team - they love hearing from happy users. Your site is looking great on mobile by the way! Thanks for the feedback :)
I wrote a review in 2016, and here I am still with these folks. They are the best. No matter what question, what problem that may arise they are right on top of it. Their add on features are awesome and always growing and I am always excited to see these new features which add to the quality of my directory. The site is always fast, always up, and you know with Brilliant that they are always there to assist. What more can you ask for. I love these folks.
Brilliant Directories has everything built in for your listings-photos, videos, etc. and you don't have to worry about hosting! It can be monetized immediately by selling listings or membership packages, placing ads or paid referrals. You can customize the look, fonts, colors, graphics, layout and pages. Plus you can work at your own pace adding coupons, galleries, a blog, classified section or real estate listings. Don't bother wasting your time with directory plugins or WP themes. I know this for a fact! Nothing is as tested and powerful as this system. Oh, and their customer service is awesome! They have a great team of people there to see to your success!
Thanks, Tracy, for such a detailed review! You're absolutely right - the system was designed to be as flexible and dynamic as possible. Sometimes website owners' goals may change or they might want to head in a brand new direction. We wanted to be sure that if a user is in this position they can update or redo their website without a problem. We're thrilled to hear that the Brilliant Directories platform and our support has been working well for you :)
The latest (UX technology) considers how effective webmasters are in getting visitors to do something (buy, sell, join, call me, etc). Briliiant Directories has nailed it! Getting visitors to your site depends entirely on content. "Video" is the number one search term attraction and BD has made it enticing for members (who are universally, incredibly lazy about keeping their web pages up to date) to add videos and text. Those two things win searches. I thank whoever it is who thought this thing (Brilliant Directories) up.
Wow! Thank you, Dennis, for the amazing review! Our founders, Jason and Matt, were both web developers and SEO masters prior to starting Brilliant Directories. This is one of the reasons why so much emphasis has been placed on making SEO as easy as possible with Brilliant Directories. Our team also knows that sometimes it can be slightly challenging to get your members to contribute to your website which is why we make sure to include countless features that help to entice your members to contribute. We even started our webinar series to help people who run into these challenges as well as some other marketing and branding hurdles. Our top priority here at Brilliant Directories is to make sure our users reach and surpass their goals. Thanks again!
So grateful to have found you guys. The only criticism I can say is there are so many features built in that there's a lot to learn. I migrated from another platform, so it took me about 2 weeks to get everything transferred over. I did most of it myself. Members were easy to add. But some of my events and articles I had to manually copy and paste into my brilliant site.
But every time I have a question your amazing support team (especially the wonderful Gloriana) is always there to point me in the right direction.
Not only am I happy with my shiny new site (YAY), my member's are also elated with joy from all the new toys and tools brilliant offers for them.
Looking forward to joining my first webinar Wednesday with you this week. Hope I get picked to have my site showcased ;)

And all of us here are so glad that the community forums have been useful for you!
