Check this post, its a long list but is worth going trough it, at the end you are going to end with dolphin, phpfox, socialEngine and PHPizabi. In my opinion those are the best.

I to have only negative experiences with this product, although it sounds very impressive indeed initially!

The support is very bad. The (unprofessional) community is just not big enough and the product itself is buggy…even after 6 years of development.

The same goes also for phpizabi by the way and during my quest for ‘the right one’ I’ve found out that this is actually the case for all the products out there, even the paid ones: out of the box their just fine, but customizing it is a real pain in the ass.
They’ve somehow never developed a prof supported community around them like Wordpress or vBulletin for example.

In the end you’re just better of using a hosted service like Ning after all, because otherwise you’ll be missing out a lot of essential Web 2.0 features.
