Pagemodo vs. Tabfoundry

If you don't have a lot of time or expertise in custom tab creation, Pagemodo offers a quick and easy solution. Custom templates are great to manipulate to meet your individual needs.

• Easy to use
• Lots of themes
• Free version will fill most people's needs

Incentivized

• For advanced users, it would have been nicer to have more custom HTML options. This area seemed to not interact so well once published.
• It would be great to be able to manipulate templates more. For example changing the size of the photos and a drag drop feature to create your own custom template.

I hoped Pagemodo would enable me (the non-coding Community Manager) to build and manage custom tabs without assistance from our Development team. Unfortunately, to build a beautiful custom tab that is consistent with your brand identity, you will need to use CSS. Additionally, I saw a number of tech bugs, most of which were never resolved (for example I would enter text into an allotted box, but it wouldn't appear on my page). Customer support provided no help.

• I've used Pagemodo to run various contests through Facebook and it has provided me with an easy way to really engage our followers. I've obtained over 300+ emails from our recent Halloween contest and have increased our Facebook "likes" by 15%.
