A ComF5 Review


Video Marketing can certainly be a very effective tool for marketing online. But it’s important, as anything else, that your do a thorough product research before committing to purchase it. It might be expensive investment that will not give the return you expect.
ComF5 offers a streaming video program that can be used to send a personalized video email to one person or to a group. Other features are live webcasting, video on demand, video auto responders and landing pages hosting. It's the perfect vehicle for any marketer to reach any niche market.
At the beginning of this year, I bought the software because I had been getting video emails from another marketer and got really excited about it. He, then, told me about all the features it offered and the discounted price from $400.00 to $99.00/month to become an affiliate. I quickly jumped at the opportunity.  
Well, the thing is if you are someone who has technical problems and are not electronically inclined, which is my case; you might have a bad experience with it. First off, they offer only very general video tutorials, leaving you in the dark for certain details. And technical support was far from offer qualified advice.
Whenever I looked for their help, even using their own technical lingo, they never understand what I needed. They kept passing the phone to somebody else. The impression I got was that they either didn’t know what they were doing or they just had bad customer service.  
At one specific occasion, I received wrong information and it was very frustrating. Fortunately, someone else in my group came to my rescue. However, I was never able learn how to use the tool with all of its benefits.
Besides wasting $396.00, I literally wasted a lot of my time trying to figure things out with ComF5 which should have been made obvious by the company. Later, I found out that I could have gotten all the features I had for only $39.00/month and then, if liked the product I could have become an affiliate. Obviously, I felt very cheated and decided to cancel it.
On the other hand, if you are a real geek and can easily figure electronic things out on your own, you can absolutely use this tool to make a big difference in your business.
So, my advice is, be wiser than I was. Shop around and find out what’s really best for you. Don’t just trust what you hear first hand. Check to see if there are other comparable products and check around for reviews.  If you decide that you’re going to purchase the product, see if it’s possible to have a free trial or perhaps, try it as a product only for $39.00, before you become an affiliate.
To your success!

  2. I read your review and I'm sorry what happened to you. I use a video email system that costs $29.95 per month plus a $30 license fee each year. It also does more than video email. It has an MLM compensation plan (no extra charge to be an affiliate). There are weekly video training calls and technical support. I'm very happy with it. Feel free to contact me if you want at 214-551-3590 or keejur@yahoo.com ---Joy Rogers

  4. A professionally crafted logo jpg is one of the greatest blessings for a company; whether it is big or small. It gives them an identity of their own and makes them different from others.
