This product helps us track and recognize our donors and their donations.

We liked to use crowdrise for individual fundraising campaigns centered around 1 specific goal or event.

My best friend passed away & I set up a charity fund in order to get the money for her casket & this app made it so easy to do in my time of grieving.

Some countries may not be accepted so it can be frustrating at times.

At the end of the day, we decided to switch to Classy as it was a more integrated fundraising platform.

Great for individual and team fundraising campaigns.

I did not like how this integrated with our website (or rather the lack thereof).

Something that i did not like about this software is it is basically open to any cause sometimes for inappropriate things.

Fantastically easy way to raise money fir just about any cause.

I have found this product quite easy and simple to use. It is a great software to help you stay updated with charities and donate to causes you believe in.

The qualm I have with GoFundMe is its lack of integration with Facebook.

I love Crowdrise, it used to be 100% free and its allowed you to do more then most other peer-to-peer crowd funding platforms allowed.

Not every worker is rude, but there are a few bad eggs that will be extremely rude and unhelpful.

We have used Crowdrise the last couple of years for our 5k fundraising. I have to say, their customer service and account specialist teams go above and beyond to provide the best service possible.

Our supporters get to be involved in our fundraising and have their own space to do it. The tools that CrowdRise offers are easy to use and assist in soliciting donations from family and friends.

Last year we set up an account and again this year wanted to do the same. With the change in the partnership with GOFundMe and CrowdRise we were limited on what we could do this year.

Solid!!!! A great tool that integrates email, social media and a well thought out brand.

Overall, I believe this is great resource it’s easy to donate funds.

Very good experience so far. Great feature to highlights some ongoing charity which is great.

It’s a great way to bring awareness and to raise funds for various causes and people. I have supported a few causes using this platform.

I have heard that funds are returned to donors if the cause is fraudulent. So that makes me feel a lot better.

Customer service is nice when you are paying for it, otherwise you are pretty much on your own and unable to customize much.

It's great for college students to create peer to peer campaigns for example.

I enjoy how easy it is to use this software. It has components which are recognizable and intuitive, making the system easy to use and manage.

It's important when fundraising to be able to tell your story, both the story of your organization, but also your own personal story. Crowdrise is intuitive, and it is also fun.

We enjoyed the ease of raising funds, how quickly and easily people can access the product. I enjoyed the ability to directly thank contributors.

This is the only site that I trust to use and you really see the community of crowdrise in a positive light. The support is overwhelming and the change and response is instant.

I like that it is an easy way to raise funds and support a cause.

For both users and donors, this software is very straightforward and easy to use. As the user, I was able to customize my campaign with messages, pictures, and videos which added that personal touch.

It was easy to use and send out our message to people.

The best part about GoFundMe is you can pick on your particular issue that you having to let the donors know what you need help with. It gives it more humanistic feel.

A fast and effective reliable way of funding charity and lending assistance in a legal manner is also well known.

The clunky interface was made worse on slow-speed days, whereas other programs were not affected at all.

Also critical was event management and integration with membership, since the organization's main publicity and fundraising activity is a large bike ride. Web site integration was also attractive.

It has errored out a number of times and there was no intuitive alert to let us know we were missing out on authorized donations.

A minor lack of functionality although this was a very mild displeasure.

Easy of use, ability to customize the member database easily and the integrated content management system for a professional website.

Every support request has been taken care off super-quickly. It has been a pleasure to work with the WA team since 2015.

So much had to be manually configured - it was a total time suck.

Every feature you might want is included. Easy to learn - good online support.

Truly grateful for their customer support - very responsive.

Price for managing HOA communities was a little better than some of my other options.

I'm struggling to find something negative to say.

The feature that I like the most is ease of use.

Great team to work with and Wild Apricot provided some great webinars to help us along the way.

Lots of features and descent integration. For 2+ years I loved this software.

It is not cheap but it is definitely worth the cost if you want a good, reliable and membership system with the integrated website.

A great choice and simple solution for an Online Membership Management System.

Members love the easy of managing their own profiles and the other features for member communications.

The software is very comprehensive, robust, and yet easy to use with many automated procedures.

The simplicity yet robust nature of this software is awesome. The user-friendly setups and ease-of-use make it an effective tool to help manage various facets of the organization.

The back office administration generally works really well and the ability to manage events is excellent.

There is little to no support online and it is extreamely difficult to learn to use.

They do a great job with marketing and making it feel user friendly.

Hoping they can keep this excellent service going for a very long time. Also, the support team and responsiveness has always been great.

Good-looking website; easy to edit and expand. Very helpful in running our club.

The WORST Experience - After 4 years of subscription services.

Many of my volunteers are elderly and they can navigate the system just as ease as a techny-teenager.

Overall, my experience with Wild Apricot was positive. The platform provided a comprehensive and user-friendly solution for managing membership-based organizations.

Good but will not renew. They are only interested in the money.

I appreciate the following. Ease in putting together a page on the website.

The website features and options are great, the membership, event  and donation features are wonderful.

I like the robustness of this database. Its user friendly but a very powerful tool.

Ease of use, functionality, and cost are all attractive to our small Associations.

Overall, an excellent value for the investment. Using it has helped our club to implement events more easily and keep the content current.

Wild Apricot definitely solves the membership management nightmare. Support staff are excellent: knowledgeable and courteous.
