1.8GPA

Best for courses and memberships on your own WordPress site

AccessAlly is a WordPress plugin for courses, memberships and communities, with payments and CRM connections built in. It only runs on a WordPress site you manage yourself, and the pricing page contradicts itself, so we can't give you a firm cost.

Who AccessAlly is for

  • Fits if you already run a WordPress site and want courses and members on it
  • Works for coaches who want their sales and CRM tool to share one list

Who AccessAlly is not for

  • Skip it if you don't want to host WordPress yourself, because it only runs there
  • Watch out: the pricing page's figures conflict with other text on it, so check the price before you buy
  • Not for you if you want a free start: the only safety net is a 14-day refund
  • Tight if you want a community: it is a separate, dearer plan

Why AccessAlly gets a 1.8

Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.

  • CValue for moneyThe pricing page lists Essentials, Pro and Community at yearly prices, but the figures conflict with other text on the page, so the cost can't be checked and sits in the middle by default.
  • FFree plan and trialNothing free. There is a 14-day money-back guarantee, which is not a trial.
  • BFeaturesCourses, memberships, payments, CRM connections, a community plan, gamification and affiliates. Nothing in the listing is missing from the job.
  • DEase of useIt runs only inside a self-managed WordPress site, so you host, update and connect it yourself.
  • BPlatforms and integrationsWeb only, but it connects to ActiveCampaign, ConvertKit, Keap, Ontraport, Stripe and PayPal.

Keep AccessAlly, or make your own?

Keep it

To replace AccessAlly you would be making email sent in volume that still reaches the inbox. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.

That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 33 of the 41 other course and community platforms grade higher.

What you could make

  • Online courses and templates: an app builder makes these well.

What you could not

  • Email sent in volume that still reaches the inbox.
  • A members' space with posts, chat and events that people keep coming back to.
  • Every click and sale traced back to the right partner.
  • It plugs into other products, ActiveCampaign, ConvertKit and Keap among them.
  • People on the other end: coaches and a community of other users. No app builder makes those.
  • The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.

What this rests on. AccessAlly’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.

What is AccessAlly?

AccessAlly is a WordPress plugin for building courses, memberships and member communities on your own site. Its pages describe unlimited courses and members, no transaction fees, payments through Stripe or PayPal, and connections to CRMs such as ActiveCampaign, ConvertKit, Keap and Ontraport.

Worth knowing

  • It runs only inside a self-managed WordPress site.
  • The pricing page lists Essentials, Pro and Community at yearly prices, but the figures conflict with other text on the page, so pricing is unverified.
