Best Forum Software

Been considering a forum for one of my sites, was curious since many of you probably have forums which you think is the best and why. Also considering a chat portion to it so an add on of some sort might be nice as well.

What you think, vbulletin, ipboard, etc etc?

Love to hear your thoughts

thanks

I have tested them all when I was looking for a forum for my large community website, definitely IP Board is the best. It integrates with current user database/website very easily and you can add chat module.

A lot of people will say vBulletin but I dont think it's any better than the free forum-scripts like SMF or MyBB. I've also heard good things about PHPBB 3.

from IP Board presale section:

Question: Would it be possible to purchase IP.Chat for more than 250 users online? Possibly 1000? 10,000? etc.

Answer: Please email [email protected] to discuss custom needs.

So it definitely is possible if you need it.

Go with IP Board, but phpBB4 is looking interesting and will be built upon Symfony2.

You can always integrate your own chat solution if needed.
