WildApricot is an affordable cloud-based software for small associations, non-profits, state and local chapter organizations. Manage membership, website, events and more all in one place.
Organizations and Associations of all sizes use TidyHQ. Sports, University, College, Rotary, Non-Profit to small business and many other types of groups use our platform.
The database and event management tools are excellent, and the website construction is very good as well. I pretty much love just about everything about the software.
A recent forced change of payment systems resulted in our members' automatic subscriptions being canceled without warning, which was not expected or documented.
The platform is reliable and predictable and the product offers excellent functionality in its ability to have events that are visible and/or available for sign-up to members only or to the public.
They dropped telephone support in the last year and did not provide any guidance or assistance to us when they forced a payment system change that affected our members.
It's easy to use, professional looking, the customer service is outstanding AND it was affordable. It literally brought our group together.
A lot of what I thought were their mistakes turned out to be mine.
Excellent combination of powerful member management tools with integration into a great website templates. Absolutely fantastic even for non-IT professionals.
Absolutely rude - and that's IF you can actually spend 2-3 hours waiting to talk to a chat box - not a human that you can talk to.
Ability to generate and share flexible agendas. Creating minutes during the meeting this is fabulous.
I hate having to redo everything several times.
Email system is good as is the ability to form groups. Dash board is useful as is the ability to create events and meetings.
It is frustrating having a monthly limit on emails when it considers each recipient of a group email to be in the counting of the monthly usage.
Overall Tidy HQ has contributed to ease and flow. I feel both relieved and eager when I login and I feel happy and satisfied when I logout.
I found it terribly difficult to set up, and not at all attractive. TidyHQ is exactly that - tidy.
Great business to deal with and superb support to help us get it all across the line. Great company to deal with and they are always improving the product.
Some payments are hard to make as its overseas for my company.
Caryn: Hello, my name's Caryn. I'm the Communications Director for the Off Campus Writers' Workshop. We're an organization of about 300 and 5,400 members, using Wild Apricot for our event management and membership management. My level of satisfaction, I'm afraid to say is a one. I am not a satisfied customer of Wild Apricot. Before adapting to Wild Apricot, and I believe it was 2015, our organization was on a manual system of personal emails, storing things in folders and Outlook, keeping lists of our email addresses in an Excel sheet. It was a totally manual system, and as we added more members and needed more functionality, it just was not working out for us at all. So at that point, we went to this all in one solution, Wild Apricot. In all honesty, we didn't vet a bunch of systems. I'm sorry that we didn't. We got a recommendation from somebody whose expertise we trusted said, this is a platform that you can get everything under one umbrella that'll solve your problems. And we went for it without doing a great deal of research, basically on recommendation. Getting started was tedious. It was a lot of work that very few people had to do in a short timeframe, so it was not a pleasant experience. As far as difficulty in grasping the functions, I don't think it was over our heads. It was just the amount of tedium involved in getting up and running. I would take a test run. They do offer the opportunity to test the product before you buy. I would pay very close attention to any recommendations that you could get of customers that use Wild Apricot, and I don't know that they would ever supply those names. And I would look at 4, 5, 6 other systems, compare them all. Because once you get on one of these systems, it's very difficult to get off. So you better be happy about the choice you've made from the get-go. And for that reason, I suggest that whoever's looking at it take the time to compare it to several different alternatives that all offer the same functionality, but may have updated their system a lot more readily than the Wild Apricot owners seem to be willing to.
