Our platform offers a one-stop solution for integrating, managing and tracking third-party applications.
But, as every rose has thorns. Wibiya too has both pros and cons. The first setback being that Wibiya does not allow direct user registration. You have to firstly apply for a invite to its private Beta mode. Done that, after sometime, it automatically mails you with an invite.
Another setback with Wibiya is that it comes as a plugin for Wordpress, which has to be uploaded, activated and then works. This is not the problem. The actual problem is that the plugin queries the Wibiya’s website for displaying the toolbar on the client’s browser which takes some what longer than it would have taken on the blog’s server itself. Pondering over this. It struck to me that even this has an advantage. It helps to save on valuable bandwidth which is helpful in cases with limited bandwidth web hosts.
