AMS good for small associations (<1,000 members)
Submitted May. 12, 2014
One of our AMS clients switched from Affiniscape in June 2013 to WildApricot. Affiniscape became less and less reliable, the reason for the change. The problem with Affiniscape is that is was selected some years prior as a "chapter solution", when it really wasn't. We were responsible for one of about 9 chapters, so we can't comment on how WildApricot served the aggregate needs of the chapters as a collective, but it was serviceable for one chapter. It meet the basic needs fine for membership records, event registration, website content posting. It also provided a decent "export" function, which we rely on for custom uses. I could not imagine using it for a large or complex association and not sure how well it would work for a trade association. In fact, we had to "trick it" with a bogus member registration to allow an administrator at a sponsor member (w/multiple individual memberships) to manage the member information. That was probably the one weakness we experienced.
