- "Fonteva extends an already great product, Salesforce, in ways that make sense to me."
- "There's some really robust functionality right out of the box and Fonteva support will work with you initially in getting some features customized (there may be a fee)."
- "The Fonteva team is honest, transparent, good partners (they tell you when you are trying to do something that doesn't make sense in the system), and highly responsive."
- "I really like the flexibility of Fonteva for Associations. We have a lot of ideas to innovate and update our processes and this software does a great job in tailoring to our specific business needs."
- "It's really designed for individual membership and does not offer the parent child relationship. There are a number of gooes that provide various functionality, which is always a risk."
- "The registration process, It can be a little common and tedious that´s all. Fonteva does not present cons against which to be alarmed."
- "There is no way to go back to eStore from events."
- "It's very difficult to make decisions based on the various software updates that occur throughout the year."

“Top Notch Association Management Software”
Pros: We conducted an in-depth search and review to evaluate and select an Association Management Software (AMS) for our medium sized Association. There are a variety of reasons as to why we selected Fonteva, but to summarize here are our main reasons for selecting this product.
1. User Experience - The SF Lightning and Fonteva user experience for our end users is clean, simple, and easy to learn. The flexibility it offers is clear and concise to staff and will make their day to day work much more efficient. The system is highly configurable.
2. Community Groups - For a chapter based association like ours there will be many benefits to having this feature enabled. Chapters will have a variety of accessible features that our current AMS doesn't easily offer.
3. Integration - We use a wide variety of other software to run our organization. Salesforce and Fonteva's ability to connect with and integrate is simple and cost efficient.
I highly recommend this a solution for your Association.
Cons: No negatives have been found yet. Of course, you'd love for it to be cheaper. Keep an eye on the size of your environment.

“This is one of the best cloud based CRM out there for Membership Management. ”
Overall: The product is the best out there and has lot of options to customize. The staff is very supportive.
Pros: Software is easy to use and has lot of flexibility to tailor it as per the association needs.
Cons: The software has some room to improve. We have soem issues with Join process and renewal proceeses which can be improved. We also think finance side of Fonteva can be made better by improving schedule payment and lockbox functionality.
Reasons for Choosing Fonteva for Associations: For its core functionality of Membership Association Management
Switched From: Personify Community
Reasons for Switching to Fonteva for Associations: To laverage could based functionality and move away from traditional client server environment.

“Fails to deliver on many promises. Lots sacrificed with little payoff.”
Pros: I like that it's built on Saleforce CRM.
Cons: Implementation took much longer than anticipated and cost much more than forecasted. Elements of each part of the software fail to meet expectations. Core competencies such as invoicing, events set-up and managment, reporting, renewals, and eCommerce have been faulty. Support does not include support for the whole system. Their business model changed to using 3rd-party companies for setup, configuration, and advanced support. Upgrades are not free, and fees are not controlled and predictable. eCommerce engine fails to meet standards for SEO and basic eCommerce structure. Emails and integration with platforms either don't work or require excessive labor. Renewal and invoice automations can fail.
Alternatives Considered: iMIS and Nimble AMS
Reasons for Choosing Fonteva for Associations: Sales process and promises. Built on Salesforce.
Switched From: MemberSuite
Reasons for Switching to Fonteva for Associations: Membersuite by its own admission was subpar and experiencing problems.

“Six months in and loving it”
Overall: Platform user - we use Fonteva for membership, events and e-commerce. We had a great planning and implementation process. The Fonteva team is honest, transparent, good partners (they tell you when you are trying to do something that doesn't make sense in the system), and highly responsive.
Pros: Users can adapt functions in meaningful ways to fit their business needs without a lot of admin or other support
Cons: Reporting is not always intuitive and does often require admin support to do higher level reporting
Switched From: Nimble AMS
Reasons for Switching to Fonteva for Associations: Data structure (person accounts) didn't fit well with our need and limited our ability to integrate with non-profit tools such as the Salesforce Non-Profit Success Pack
