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.

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 was a webmaster for two non-profit… I was a webmaster for two non-profit organizations and now WildApricot has increased annual subscription fee from $640 to $810 for the same plan. It is about 27% increase that we cannot afford to pass on to our members and customers. So we decided not to renew our subscription with WildApricot and moved to a new platform that supports non-profits and provides discounts.

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.
