Good control to insert listings. Poor design options. Unfortunately not easy to configure. Free version very limited.

If you want to customize anything this plugin is a joke and support is useless. I upgraded from free because the free version doesn’t actually do much and I’ve had nothing but problems. Contact forms wont send anywhere, images look blurry, and changing the limited settings within the plugin doesn’t change the actually website at all so I’m constantly going into my actual style sheets to make the changes. I’ve been in contact with support for two weeks and while they are responsive they are answering questions for things I didn’t ask and not actually addressing the issue. Everything must be a “caching” issue. It’s not. Save yourself the stress and do not download this plugin.

I have chosen BD Plugin viewing their website and feature list. For any business directory, Reviews are the key element for engaging visitors and establishing authority.
However, when I implemented Business Directory Ratings, I came across significant bugs and missing features as below:
1. When “Require email to unregistered users for Posting reviews” is enabled, The Ratings straightaway got published without email link verification to an unregistered user. This would attract spam reviews with invalid email ids.
Also, there is no recaptcha option for the Ratings Form in recaptcha tab of BD Plugin.
2. Another important feature why I opted BD Directory was “The ratings display in Google search results! Rate on custom options like Service, Food Quality, Atmosphere…whatever you want!” (from their website under Ratings and Reviews Feature Heading)
However, I learned there are errors in some Google Snippet (structured data) Compatibility like Author field has not Type associated with it. It generates error in Google Search Console.
More importantly, Average Ratings for the listing is not displayed on Google as I think the Field is not set for Google Structured Data Snippet.
Lastly, as per your website, there is no option to add custom options in Feedback Forms. The user can only rate on overall basis and not on various aspects which are predefined.
3. For a Large Directory, It would be beneficial to have an interface to list all Ratings posted on the website.
Without the above The Directory Owner would never come to about how many ratings are there in total on the business directory.
Also managing the ratings would be easy if there is an interface in the admin area.
It would be really cumbersome to visit each listing to manage the ratings for that listing. Visualise if the directory has 1,00,000 Listings.
Overall, Ratings and Reviews, the most important feature needs immediate attention to address above shortcomings.

Thanks to this plugin we have been managing over 5300 business listings without much hassle or maintenance.

I have read all the past reviews and fell for this plugin and purchased their highest subscription.
I have observed they have a standard reply system on support tickets. Whatever you write, you get the same message. (`Thank you for reaching out about this. I’m XXXXX from the customer success team and I’m happy to help with this.
That’s something we can consider for future development, but not something the plugin allows for today. We’re definitely considering it for inclusion, but we don’t have a specific timeframe when it will be available at this time.
I will add this to our feature request list for a future update. Thanks for bringing this to our attention!)
Clearly, no one read my request.
I asked for India ZIP availability 2.5 years back, and it’s not still available.
Also, INR currency support for Paid listing is not available.
I think they have no team member who can take up bug fixing or feature request incorporation.
Don’t expect the same experience as Past feedback for this plugin. In the past, they might have had good Freelance Developers and support staff. But at present, it’s all sham.

I installed this program and upgraded to their pro account for a client as it said it could handle hundreds of thousands of listings. We imported 50,000+ listings and now several features time out.
1) We had to disable the view all listings button.
2) Also, Categories with large numbers time out.
3) The Zip Code Search By Distance Also Timed Out
We opened ticket, and we got a response that they have seen this before but had no solution, and now they have ghosted him.
Very disappointed, this product can’t handle a large database.

I really enjoyed using this plugin so far. I’m using it to set up a database of Alumni members, and I’ve found that the free version has a generous number of features. It is well done, without bugs, and well documented. The CSV import tool works very well when importing a large database (mine had 3000 members). It was easy to set up the fields and then download a template CSV, and upload again. Re-importing data when making changes works well with the ID matching.
I really appreciate the work you’ve put into this and I will definitely think of it when planning future projects.
There was one item that I ran into and I wonder if there would be a way to build a solution into the plugin. When importing my list of people, I wanted the person’s full name as the Title of the BD post, however I also wanted to be able to filter by both Last and First name alphabetically. I used a javascript work-around for my site which is fine but I wonder if other people come across this.
