Website Planet had the chance to interview Gercek Karakus, the founder of Raklet, a comprehensive community management platform that empowers organizations to build, engage, and grow their communities.

We looked at the key factors behind the remarkable growth of their user base the numerous industry awards they won, and the substantial positive impact we’ve made on the communities they serve.

What problems are you solving for your customers and audience?

At Raklet, we address various pain points within community management by employing a holistic solution approach. The consequences of not solving these pain points include diminished community engagement, inefficient communication, and missed opportunities.

Common solutions like competing platforms or DIY methods often fall short due to their limited scope and lack of customization.

On the other hand, our unique approach involves providing a fully integrated platform that streamlines communication, enhances member engagement, and fosters community growth.
