They keep adding more crap to their software and it doesn't make any sense. This is what you get when you deal with a company that is in a country that ends in "Stan". Middle East Russian or whatever. You call it like you see it and at the end of the day when you put lipstick on a pig, it's still a pig. Dating software providers need to stop adding useless features that won't do shit for their customers. The reality is that people want to see content and content is people. Stop adding so called bells and whistles... SKAdate is complete crap. They keep adding more crap to their software and it doesn’t make any sense.

Just whilst I know you're looking at this thread, I hope you don't mind me jumping in with another question. My admittedly limtied experience of investigating dating platforms (white label or otherwise) leaves a little to be desired in terms of design. Apart from a few basic templates (if at all) there only seems to be basic colour choices for text / background etc. However, developing dating sites is all about standing out from the crowd, so what do you guys offer in terms of availability to alter design. Is it just header / footer or can we spruce up anything else ? Do you have deisgners you exclusively work with or can a site owner use their own staff? There seems to be a real lack of modern well designed templates to choose from with dating providors. Many thanks for your help, Alasdair Hi Ross,

You own the brand so you can sell it - it would be up to the new owner of the brand whether or not they wanted to continue with our platform, use another or go in-house. We can offer shared ownership of data so a copy can be taken away which means you're not locked in. So yup - no problem there, Ross Hi Alasdair,

I have a question to Ross if he still keeps an eye on this particular thread. as I'm currently debating white label v custom software. What would happen if I partner with a WL site and after a while it's successful enough to keep the money rolling in, and then I decide I'd like to sell up. What would happen then ? Would I be able to freely sell my percentage ? would it default to you ? or what would the process be ? Thanks I’ve only just stumbled across this exchange, and found it a fascinating insight.

We do major upgrades once a year at average. White labels do not hit into our market because you have a different audience. Your customers well... just sit and watch. They can't do anything on your system. Our customers try to change the game and test out their own ideas. That's the main difference. Ross, and this major update of our software is a planned one.
