### "WorkForce Multiplier !"

April 1, 2019

5.0

I've enjoyed my time using the platform to help connect teachers around the state and the nation.

Pros

360 has turned from a provider to a thought partner as we have grown and expanded out alumni offerings and supports.

Cons

As of right now, I would like to see an improvement in the accessibility of automated tools with the email marketing system. As of right now, it's a bit heavy handed but it's not a deal breaker in the least bit.

Hi Corey, thanks for the review! We've loved partnering with Golden Apple for the past four years. I'll check with Meg to make sure you and your team are well trained on the many automated tools in 360Alumni's integrated Emma email system, especially the ability to synchronize dynamic lists. As always, we'll update our product roadmap with anything else you need to be successful. We'll be in touch! - Christina Balotescu, Founder & CEO

### "From Test Drive to Continued Support 360Alumni is the best."

September 25, 2024

5.0

360Alumni has been terrific. I love that they have a platform sandbox before you sign so you can test drive the environment! I think that was what got us over the hump to sign. The onboarding is fantastic and the continuing support means we get to stay for the long hall.

Pros

While the software is easy to use, feature, and includes an easy to use email component, probably the best thing about 360Alumni is the customer service. Very responsive! \[sensitive content hidden\] is fantastic in that she gets back to me with either, "This is how you can do it," or "let me check on that." When i compared products originally, I found that the price was better and now we are customers for life because of the people!

Cons

I don't think there are great API opportunities, yet. Also, not super mobile friendly, however that is on the roadmap for future upgrades.

Reason for choosing 360Alumni

The price was less, not by a bunch, however 360Alumni INCLUDES the email marketing tool, Emma, which means over all less cost. And, 360Alumni has an environment that our team could go investigate, make changes and see how the platform worked in real time.

### "Quality Product"

September 26, 2024

5.0

Overall, it was a very positive experience.

Pros

360Alumni is very user-friendly and straight-forward. The set-up is visually appealing and lends itself to multiple ways in which to engage your audience. I also found the customer support to be very helpful and friendly.

Cons

The thing I liked least was nothing about 360Alumni itself, but rather in getting our population to interact with the site on a regular basis.

### "The best customer service"

October 25, 2023

4.0

Pros

What stands out is 360Alumni's customer support team.

Cons

Many of our older constituents found the platform difficult to navigate. From an admin perspective, I wished the platform was more of a self-contained, all-inclusive website instead of an add-on directory. In our case, I had to incorporate 3rd party services which made it more work.

Response from 360Alumni

January 6, 2024

Thanks for your praise, Frank! We've taken your feedback and enhanced the user experience significantly for alumni of all ages and abilities in our next major release. This includes ADA accessibility compliance. For those reading this review, 360Alumni is not a content/website management system (like WordPress or Wix), so it does not act as a standalone website. 360Alumni is typically linked to from an existing marketing site.

### "Strengthening Connections and Empowering Communities"

July 7, 2023

4.0

I appreciate the platform's networking capabilities and the ability to connect and engage with fellow community members. The directory and search functionality make it easier to find and connect with individuals based on shared interests or affiliations, fostering meaningful connections within the community.

Pros

Users often highlight the robust networking features of 360Alumni. The platform offers a comprehensive directory of community members, making it easy to connect and engage with fellow alumni or community members. The powerful search functionality allows users to find and connect with individuals based on various criteria such as graduation year, location, or profession.

Cons

I have mentioned that the pricing structure of 360Alumni can be a bit complex or costly, particularly for smaller organizations or communities with limited budgets.

### "Innovative and Always Improving Alumni Social Platform"

December 11, 2018

5.0

360Alumni has allowed me to connect with alumni and establish our first alumni relations platform at our community college.

Pros

I mostly enjoy the clean and modern feel of the platform. The staff is always looking for ways to make improvements and stay current with changes in the industry.

Cons

There are some manual tasks when it comes to managing your records. But, that comes with any alumni platform you use. It is just th nature of the industry.

### "Helpful team and Easy To Use"

December 17, 2018

4.0

Pros

The customer service is excellent! The client success team at 360Alumni are attentive and supportive. I have a monthly call with 360Alumni team member who helps me think about how we can use the platform to achieve our goals. The whole team is eager to help clients (big and small) and always open to receiving feedback. We have used the event feature to manage all types of events from a ticketed gala dinner to happy hours to group hikes to museum tours. I also like the Lists function which allows you to create static or dynamic lists of alumni and then easily send a message to everyone on that list. The Lists also sync with the email marketing platform My Emma (a great tool in its own right!), making it easy to send marketing-type emails to specific groups of alumni.

Cons

There are a number of bugs and technical issues on the platform which will arise, especially when new functions and features are added. However, I suppose this would be true to some extent on every platform.

### "Amazing Product for Student Organizations"

October 20, 2014

5.0

We've been using 360Alumni for Los Hermanos de Stanford to help simplify and manage the data for our roughly 300 alumni member group. Before, we used an outdated spreadsheet to manage contacts and often it was incomplete. It was almost impossible to contact alumni with accurate information. With 360Alumni, we've been able to update our information and have an easy to use way to search them and their careers. In addition, their integrated emailing system has allowed us to contact all our alumni at once, simplifying our original process. We now have the option of contacting our alumni for donations with specified campaigns. Lastly, their integrated ticketing system allows us to sell tickets to events we may have in the future.

### "Great product for our alumni!"

March 13, 2019

5.0

It was very easy to get 360Alumni up an running at Curtis. It has been even easier to make customizations and get tech support when needed. We have had a very positive experience with 360Alumni and hope to do so for a long time!

Pros

I like how inviting and friendly it looks, the UX is relatively simply. It accomplishes all that we need as a small school and so much more without taking away a lot of staff time.

Cons

Nothing about the software, it just takes a lot of time and effort to create activity and buy-in on these kinds of platforms, particularly with small schools.

### "360Alumni is helpful, but better options are available for same price."

April 12, 2019

3.0

360Alumni is useful for alumni departments, but there are other software services that offer additional functionality for the same cost.

Pros

The ease of use in getting an alumni network started. People can easily create a profile, post jobs, post community events, RSVP for events, etc.

Cons

Additional functionality is not as robust as other software at this price point. Ultimately, we left because we would pay the same amount with another software that had the additional functionality.

### "360 Alumni Review"

December 12, 2018

4.0

Overall it's been a great add to our organization and something I see us using for the foreseeable future. LinkedIn groups didn't work, Facebook was too informal, and every other platform was either too expensive or not feature rich enough. 360 makes a platform that is reachable in terms of cost while also giving tons of functionality that is needed.

Pros

I enjoy the ability to have everything our organization does with Alumni in one single location. It has been a huge benefit in giving our Alumni a place where they know they can to if they need information about what's currently happening or need to get in touch with a current member of the organization.

Cons

What I least like is the inability to know what I see as an Admin and what regular users see. This makes it difficult when updating different pieces of the platform or adding value to it. It would be great to understand what they see so there's not a break in communication with what we think is being translated and what isn't.

### "Good way to connect"

August 16, 2017

5.0

Pros

360Alumni is a very good product that has lots of potential to change the way alumni, college and employers connect each other. The best thing is there practice to improve their product all the time and keep on reaching more and more alumni. Also now we have the option of contacting our alumni for donations with specified campaigns.

Cons

There are no such cons in this tool as they keep them self updated all the time but it is little bit Expensive.

### "Perfect for connecting alumni"

April 19, 2018

5.0

Pros

Program makes it very easy to connect alumni and employees to one another. It also provides the ability to connect via events and condenses the reaching out process.

Cons

I don't feel that the software has any cons. For some organizations, the price may be difficult, but for others it will suit their alumni management capacity.

January 20, 2015

5.0

Our organization has about 350 outstanding alumni (and growing by 70/year) located all throughout the country. We worked with our alumni last summer to ask them how we could support what they are doing and we heard three things: (1) create an alumni directory (2) allow specialty job posting (3) enable engagements with alumni from across generations. We looked at a number of products to fill these gaps, and 360Alumni was the only product that truly fit our needs at a very affordable price point.

360Alumni was a great answer to the needs of our alumni community. The features on this platform are easy to use for all generations. We needed a platform for our alumni to connect with each other, both personally and professionally. This platform does all that. Additionally, each time we have a question or need assistance with the platform, the customer service is friendly, helpful and efficient. I would highly recommend 360alumni to alumni professionals.

360 Alumni is an incredible product that has lots of potential to change the way alumni, employers, and colleges relate to one another. The staff is super helpful. They are always looking for ways to improve their own product and help you reach more alumni. While we haven't been able to connect with as many alumni as we all would have hoped. We are learning from the outreach that we have done. I am truly excited about this products potential.
