WildApricot is an integrated set of web tools combining membership, event and website management used by over 16,636 associations, clubs, online communities, membership website, non-profit organizations and other groups.
Diane Herrick, the Conference Chair of KAPS (KY Association for Psychology in the Schools) is one customer who's found WildApricot to be a great help in the everyday management of her organization.
"WildApricot has been a lifesaver for our association," she says. "It saves us at least 15-30 hours of work every time we have an event. It's simple to send email blasts, track payments, and keep in touch with former members who may have drifted away."
If you'd like to find out what WildApricot can do for you, here are the 10 benefits our all-in-one membership management software.
Your website is fully integrated with your member database, event calendar and online fundraising functionality. No more copy-pasting or export-importing between different systems. Here is a sample scenario: A member applies online and pays with a credit card. The system sends an email confirmation, informs the administrator and activates member access to a private website section. All of that is fully automated and seamlessly integrated. See more about Integrated Website capabilities.
Create and customize a professional-looking website in one hour. Engage your supporters and members with your blog and discussion forum, let them create online profiles and be listed in an online directory. Reach out with an integrated email tool to send newsletters. Have the system send automatic event notices and reminders. See Community and Social Networking Tools.
Instead of maintaining a separate membership management system, webpage editing software, website hosting, event calendar and registration, online fundraising and payments, emailing tool and discussion forums, you can use WildApricot for all these tasks. Avoid setup fees (we made our system so easy to use that we do not have to charge you a setup fee). Save on training - our system is designed for use by inexperienced volunteers. If they can use Microsoft Word, they can use WildApricot. All of that starting from $60/month. No surcharges on credit card processing or transaction fees. See Pricing.
WildApricot will replace and automate time-consuming processes in your organization: new member application processes, membership renewal and dues payments, event registrations, online donations. Automate donation confirmations, membership renewal notices, broadcast individualized emails to members and event attendees and reach out to donors. See Self-service.
An event calendar on your website, automated e-mail notices and reminders as well as RSS feeds ensure people don't miss an event. People easily register and pay online - no manual work is required on your part and members do not have to re-type their personal details. See Event Registration.
With a web-based system, your volunteers can work on assigned tasks from where and when convenient. They sign in with secure personal logins and access the functions you have enabled for them. As long as they are comfortable using a software like Microsoft Word, your most eager supporters can use WildApricot tools and help you out - no need for advanced tech skills or expensive training.
Let your members apply for membership and pay dues online, update their contact information, participate on the blog and discussion forums and register for events online. Provide them with a secure access to a members-only private website section. Let them create online profiles and be listed in the member directory. See Member Self-service.
The online member directory makes it easier for members to search and contact each other. People provide feedback and engage with one another using the blog and discussion forum. Email tools help you reach out to all the people in your list - or target a select group.
WildApricot dashboard provides instant overview of the most recent and critical data about your organization. Member list shows you at a glance your membership by each level and recently joined members or lapsed members. Reports show up-to-date revenues from new membership, renewals, event registrations and donations.
Board members can directly access your WildApricot system to view current reports and statistics.
