GBRecent technical issue with how the… Recent technical issue with how the website posts the number of registrants and openings for an event. The event page and the Upcoming Events "gadget" doesn't count a registrant with an unpaid balance. This is causing tremendous confusion among our members and event leaders.

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.

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.

GBFeatures are not intuitive and… Features are not intuitive and difficult to find how they work. An example; An organization is late on their annual dues but pays for an event. It appears to put the money for the event toward their late dues.

GBHIGHLY Recommended Platform for an Integrated Organization Management and Website I moved my writers organization onto Wild Apricot over five years ago and have NEVER regretted it. It automates tasks that used to take hours and brings together membership and event management onto our website platform. It is easy enough to use that we no longer need a developer to maintain the site. When we run into issues the Wild Apricot staff has been very responsive and provides easy to use instructions to resolve questions. They also have plenty of training to help you unlock the power of the platform. HIGHLY recommend it.
