• We used timely event calendar for years and they recently decided to change it, forced us to move to their “new” platform and now want to charge us $425 a year for the plan we used to pay $179 for. No explanation, no choices, just…oh sorry this is the new platform. We don’t need bells and whistles or extra features to negate an extra $246 a year.

    @calvinyeh This is a valid review. If you want to reply well then please do so.

    If you need to contact the moderators about this then you can do so via the Slack #forums channel.

    To use that channel you need a Slack account. You can obtain one via these instructions.

    When you contact the #forums channel, inform them what your www.remarpro.com forum user ID is. That will help the moderators find your account and ascertain what the issue is.

    If you do use Slack do not direct message me or any other moderator. Use the #forums channel and any moderator there can assist you.

    @3willow I’ve archived your reply. You don’t have to prove what your saying and moderators like me get a little worried here when people post the content of any email. Even a form letter one.

    If the developer wishes to reply they can. As long as it’s an even reply and does not share the contents of emails, email addresses, etc. then that will be fine.

    @jdembowski and @3willow I am responding on behalf of @calvinyeh and Timely.

    @3willow We are sorry about your recently experience with us. In fact, your complain relates to our SaaS product, and not our WordPress plugin, so in our view the appropriate forum to raise these issues would be directly with our customer success team by email or by a support ticket.

    Anyway, I would like to clarify that when a customer of Timely, you signed up for a pro account with the first version of our SaaS product (Trek). In 2018, we launched a new SaaS product (Journey). Since the older version of the software you used to subscribe is been discontinued, we’ve contacted you to move you to the new platform. The new SaaS (Journey) is a new product and a more powerful event management software solution. It was updated with the latest technology and user interface to better support your organization in managing its events. The quote we sent you is for the new product, not the one you used to have.

    If you you don’t need an advanced event management solution or the new price does not fit your budget, you can always use our WordPress plugin. It is simpler, but has amazing features and it is free.

    If you want to switch to another calendar provider. We are sorry to see you go, but understand your decision.

    If your plugin is an interface to the SaaS offering then you are wrong. When you do that you make all reviews like this valid.

    I tried installing your plugin but it wanted to create a table and failed to activate. I’m not starting a support topic as I just installed it to confirm.

    @jdembowski Thank you for your comment. Although we require users to create and activate an account to use our plugin, currently, it is not an interface to our SaaS product.
