GBLongtime User - Run Away I have been using Wild Apricot for years, paying their highest-priced tier. Ever since Personify took over, we've seen a steady decline. It's now to the point where the website interface operates so slow, it's nearly impossible to use. Their support system is strictly through chat, and their hours are very limited, they never offer support on weekends or ANY kind of holiday.

GBSupport: You are on your own! As others have stated, in a single word, Support is what is lacking. We've been using this for about 6 months after the trial period. During the trial period, Support was excellent. The problem is that you will not learn everything that you will need during that period. After you purchase the product/membership, Support is practically non-existent. Text support is naturally truncated. Email support has taken up to 3 weeks to get a response. Would not recommend them. I also would not pick any products in the Personify family of companies.

GBWild Apricot is helpful & patient 24/7. That makes a big difference to a small association! Wild Apricot is consistent, easy to learn and to master. The value of using this software is not just the complexity of learning new features - but the help provided if or when we need guidance along the way. We are a small staff with multiple tasks and interests to stay ahead of our member's needs. Wild Apricot is always there to answer our questions and point us in the right direction to move forward.

GBWild Apricot has been a lifesaver the Entegra Coach Owners Association. Wild Apricot has been a lifesaver for our club as we’ve grown to almost 2000 members. We left off using a spreadsheet at @150 members. There is a learning curve, but their Customer Service is very responsive, and have been very patient as we have learned their systems. Their event registration and new payment processing capabilities will really empower our club management goals.

GBI have been a webmaster on Wild Apricot… I have been a webmaster on Wild Apricot for two non-profits for close to a decade. The advantage is that its built in tools allow a non-professional to build and maintain a website and membership database. While I have quibbles, those key processes are excellent. I think the worst aspect of Wild Apricot is their ability to handle text editing. As a webmaster who needs to create and maintain a lot of pages, text is where I spend most of my time. I waste so much time dealing with the idiosyncrasies of this process. My big concern is that after the buy-out a few years ago there seems to be an emphasis on improving profitability. Customer service has gone to hell. New products are all focused on generating additional revenue for the company and haven't been of value to us. Subscription prices are increasing at high rates. The organizations I support are looking for alternatives.
