Security Equipment Reviews


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello Guys and Linda,

I have finally finished the equipment/product reviews system for The Security Installer.Co.Uk website!

The system has taken me over a week to complete, so please make sure it is used!

The URL to the system is:

http://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/reviews/

The system has been designed to be easily used and I am very proud of it, as is Dave and I hope you will be too!

The system features many things:

  • Complete integration with the forum database, using your forum login for authorisation!
  • An easy to use interface with a pretty cool icon set!
  • An intuitive browse feature to find any review you are looking for!
  • A superb search feature to find exactly what you are looking for!
  • A top 10 authors list which is sorted according to how many reviews posted by any author!

Here is a quick screenshot:

However, since the system is brand new, you may find a bug or two, so let me know if you experience any problems what so ever.

Security has been tightened on the system to make sure it is not abused, and all actions are logged and e-mailed. The system also requires that your forum account has made at least 10 posts.

First person to post a review on it gets a Mars Bar!

Thank You,

Warren

PS: Please reply with your comments!

I hope all those who bothered to write reviews in the Trade forums will make an effort and find the time to update and re-submit their reviews in this new section of the site. :D

Its open to Every Forum Member whether they be a user or installer of the products, all we ask is that you be as honest as possible about your review and if you do or dont like a product try to explain why .. ?

Only members who have made 5 or more posts are eligable to add a review..

Please would you all consider adding reviews for the equipment you have used.

Im especially interested in any reviews of the Electronics Line Infinite control panel after having a really good demonstration at IFSEC. How do they perform in the real world..? and what do your customers think of them..?

I`m really dissapointed that the reviews section isnt getting much usage.

Waza spent a hell of a lot of time creating the reviews feature and its saddening to see it not get the used very often.

Is there something wrong with it..?

Is submitting a review too awkward..?

I really thought this feature would take off, and expected reviews to come flooding in.

C`mon Guys, spare a few minutes and review a product. :)

Why when the reviews section was in this forum was it extremely busy. I still have it, and loads of you participated in it.

Why not use this brilliant reviews system waza created..? Are you worried about repercussions of putting your names to a public review..?

It`s been up almost 6 months now, only 31 reviews to date :o

I just cant fathom out why hardly anyone has bothered to review the equipment they use. You wouldn`t believe how many days it took Waza to develop this review feature. It`s a crying shame that hardly any of you are using it.. :no:
