Discourse keeps the forum format alive. Shmore helps modern brands launch a fully branded, measurable community tied to revenue.
Forum-era UX, self-hosting overhead, and limited reporting make it hard to turn community engagement into executive-ready wins.
Threads and badge mechanics look dated for premium customers or partners.
Post-level stats only, no revenue attribution, little CRM context.
Plugins, upgrades, and security patches rest on your team’s shoulders.
Own your brand narrative, integrate commerce data, and ship new programs faster with Shmore.
Customizable community in your brand colors with a custom domain, Urbanist typography, and guided onboarding. Your brand, your universe.
Forum layout, limited theming, no branded landing or storytelling.
