Q: What do you think about this solution ?

A: "System is VERY impressive. I NEVER has any issue with it. I strongly recommend it"

 

Q: Is it easy to use ?

A: "Yes it is. In-world objects have a very clear menu (even for people not understanding anything to scripts or whatever). In addition, several languages are supported (french for me !)"

 

Q: Is it powerful enough ?

A: "Oh yes ! Invitation is being done in a very short delay. Ejections are also easier to handled: with 'manual' way, it takes around 30s, while 5s are enough with such solution ! Being group admin, it is a clear advantage !"

 

Q: What about support ?

A: "The person in charge of support is always answering questions and helps for configuration. Web site is clean, clear and well explained. A big THANK, as this service is really useful for my french Community Gateway, with lots of new arrivals"

Q: What do you think about this solution ?

A: "As a sim owner handling a business or regions with several hundreds of visitors per day this system is a must have. Doing all the invites by myself or setting up an inviter bot takes at least one hour per day or even more for the maintenance. As I do not have this time due to rl and business reasons this system is a tremendous help and offers a reliable 24/7 system giving the visitors of my regions the best service they could get.

 

Q: Is it easy to use ?

A: "it's very easy to set up and fully menu controlled. You don't even have to pay a rental box (when not using the invitor.fixed) which is located at some other region but can pay directly the invitor signs to refresh credits, and even the bot himself !

 

Q: Is it powerful enough ?

A: "I think its the most powerful invitor system i've seen so far all over sl. It offers all the features of the other system plus its even able to handle group invites were people are directly set to a role.  Other important features to mention are that there are always backup bots handling the invites when the main bot is occupied, web based statistics and reporting tools giving always full overview about current group size, how many users have joined lately and so on - i couldn't ask for more."

 

Q: What about support ?

A: "Although MyRoBoT offers a great and reliable support with always replying very quickly or sending out notices about maintenance work or whatever, I do think this is a service not really worth mentioning since i didn't really have any trouble with the system since the initial setup about a year ago; despite the addition of several new features since that time ! Everything works well and without me having to interfere or call support - that how it should be"
