A customer review

Jun 25, 2025
Love the plex community, do not love the lack of communication from plex employees on the community, but that is improving. Customer service is outsourced which causes issues with time differences and language barriers, but we have had a recent successful case so hopefully that is also improving. Update 6/25/25: Communication much improved and several successful cases! Headed in the right direction.

    Customization and Report Features Stand Out Despite Delays in Support Response

    4.0
    Dec 9, 2025
    The platform is intuitive and user-friendly while also providing a lot of customization and configurations for each module. Support is usually good unless you have a lower priority in which case you might have to wait several months for a response.
