GBRestrictive and difficult to customise Restrictive and difficult to customise. I've used Wild Apricot for a few years but NOT by choice. It's for a client who uses this platform. Coming from the WordPress background (which I have worked in for over 10 years), I find WA so incredibly frustrating to use. It's got very few theme options, hardly any features (i.e. no contact form widget for starters!) It's so clunky. Avoid, avoid, avoid.

CAAtvans.org Hi We’ve been using WA for our website and Association software for close to 4 year. We had great success, emailing members, growing our membership, registration for events,online store, newsletters, etc. Our ~4500 members have great praise for the communication the software allows us to do. I could go on, but this just works. No more excell spreadsheets.....

GBTwo huge price jumps, not worth ir I started using wildapricot about three years ago for a nonprofit organization that I am the webmaster for. At first it was a great value for the amount of money I was paying for the product. However in the past two years the price has jumped up exponentially with no real new functions that are of use to me or my organization. The first price jump I understood, but when they announced another rise in price not six months later with nothing new to justify the price I was really annoyed. Needless to say I will be looking for another service to use. I would say that the service is good out way overpriced for a small organization like mine.

GBSupport Problems! I've been with Apricot for years and their once superb support is gone. I submitted a support request that was urgent and it has been 4 days and no response. They have changed their interface and updated their system frequently and with each update comes a new issue with how system has worked for my non-profit group. Apricot, please address this shortcoming! PBGV Club of America
