Poppy Dog, www.poppydog.com

I have been a dedicated paying Poppydog customer for many years, but about 2 months ago signed on one day only to find that the site was down.

To make matters worse (every day since), the site has been down.

It doesn't seem that Poppydog is being monitored at all anymore. All I ever get when I try using the site is "this page can't be displayed". Kind of a shame that whoever WAS in charge still took people's money for long-term subscriptions, then disappeared. I for one am NOT a happy camper. Looks like many other people are in the same boat.

Despite some bad reviews -this happens to a lot of sites- I gave Poppydog.com the benefit of the doubt and tried their service as a paying professional user. I gotta be honest: their web registration tools work really well, no doubt about that! And I was happy to have found what I needed for my website.

But now, 30 July 2016, and two months after having set up an account with Poppydog, the service has been down since a couple of days. Completely down, worldwide. No messages to theit customers, no explanations, nada. I have even mailed them about this, but -of course- no reply so far.

I can't operate my site one single day without a registration and login system, and I am just a little lucky that this is occurring during this quiet time of the year (for my site). If this happens a couple of months from now, this would turn out disastrous.

Unless I see some major improvement very shortly, I will have to find an alternative. Really too bad, a really good system, but this is no way to run a business site.

The code that you insert into your web pages to protect them from being viewed by anyone who hasn't logged into their registration system - no longer works. Ouch!!!

Internet Explorer does work, but access with Chrome and/or Firefox and you can go directly into the "protected" page. So much for confidentiality - we protect those pages for a reason. I've had to take my entire website down - sent them (PoppyDog) an email asking what was going on - no response as of yet.

Also - Symantec has now marked poppydog.com as a malicious website!!!

Goes from bad to worse - too bad - their product use to be one of the best out there.

Poppydog was great until recently. For weeks now I have not been able to get a response to email and now, their security certificate has lapsed. It is looking like nobody is manning the ship. Hoping to find an alternative for a number of sites. The reworking is going to be a nightmare.

We've been using the poppydog.com tools and they are great! But support - that's a whole new issue. We are having a problem with their registration module & photo album module - and for over a week now we've been writing them everyday trying to get a response. 7 days have gone by and not only have our emails gone unanswered - but the problem remains. It's very frustrating to try and get an issue resolved and be ignored. So we're wondering if anyone is even monitoring Poppydog.com anymore.

I've used poppydog web tools in all my web sites. Their website registration and membership system rocks! They also have all the usual tools like polls, forum boards, email forms, surveys, guestbook, password protector. All the tools are integrated together and work as one, which is cool. Also you dont have to install any tools, you just embed them into your web pages.The free tools have adverts and restricted features. By becoming a professional poppydog member ALL tools are upgraded to ad-free pro versions so you dont have to pay to upgrade individual tools.
