So Synchronet does have a bigger learning curve, but IMHO, it is a more feature rich BBS.

It supports many protocols web, mail, news, ftp, irc, and many others - which if you want to use them its great. You can also use it as a base (like a game server), if you want to play with other BBS packages and have them to connect to it to collect mail or play games.

The developer is very active and there are many others around who use it who can help too.

I've used both, and I do prefer Synchronet - but it took more effort to figure some things out.
