Why does AppBistro exist,why was it started?
We started because there was a gap in developing on the Facebook Platform and that gap was discoverability. So, we decided to start a place where developers can gain discoverability, but also consumers can see trustworthy reviews of these applications. We wanted people to be able to come and find out as much about an application before they invest in it!
How does the website help people do things they want/need to do?
We help in a few different ways. We review each application impartially, so when users come to our site they know all of the pros and cons for that application. They also know features about that application. We help developers by featuring and marketing the applications that they develop. Having a third party review an application helps both the developer and the consumer. It brings value to the developer and the consumer.
Does it cost to use?
The website itself has not cost to use.
What are the prices of the applications?
We have both free and paid applications. The prices range from free to $375 dollars per application, but most are in the 10 dollar range. Also, it’s worth noting that some of these costs include multiple applications.
Our thoughts
We are very pleased with what AppBistro has to offer. As an organization who uses Facebook Applications, it is great to see a database of apps that are tested and checked out by a third party before waisting our time and possibly money trying apps out. We also like their questions and answers page. This is very helpful when trouble arises although there was no links to get back to the real homepage of the website.
If you are researching applications for your fan page. AppBistro is a good place to start.
