    I use both. I prefer DAP. I find it easier to use. One drawback of course is that your site has to be Wordpress.

    I have a straight-up HTML membership site with a lot of video and customization, so aMember was the best choice. There are a lot of aMember programmers out there to get you the look and feel you need.

    But I would always use DAP if I was going with WP.

      DAP works with html sites too.

    Michael, I've also worked with both and prefer DAP. Without knowing exactly what kind of membership site you're looking to set up and what kind of functionality you need, I'll just share a few reasons why I like DAP over every other membership solution.

    1. Awesome support/development team - Ravi and Veena are constantly improving their offering and their support is fast and specific. Also, DAP is VERY well documented. And I don't just mean thoroughly, but the documentation is put together in layman's terms.

    = You don't need developers to do "complex" things in a jiffy. With aMember, you may need a dev on hand to make customizations.

    2. Robust - DAP is lightweight (fast and easy on server resources) and can handle a LOT of users.

    3. Integrates with a lot of "stuff"

    Let me know if you have any specific questions I might be able to help answer.

    Best Wishes,
    Vic

      DAP without question. I was one of the first purchasers many moons ago. It's extremely easy to use, very straightforward, and their customer service is second to none.

    DAP for me also. Using it for years on several big membership sites and hasn't faulted me yet.
