    I have nothing but positive experiences with Growthzone from my interaction with sales, to onboarding and then continued support with the support team. They are very responsive and keep an open mind to user recommendations.

    Pros

    The program is very appealing to the eye. Its user interface is very user friendly. The modules available provide tools to make our association run efficient and effectively.

    Cons

    Nothing! I love it all. I can't think of any part of the software that I dislike.

    Overall it has been great. We came from a very old and outdated AMS and this has been a wonderful transition.

    Pros

    It is very user friendly. Easy to create emails, easy to update the front end of the website, etc. It also has nice features such as marketing automation and sponsor ads.

    Cons

    There are a few things that don't work as one would hope, but GZ is good about making updates. The customer service through email is very very slow. It takes weeks to get a response back.

    Alternatives Considered

    MemberClicks

    Reasons for Choosing GrowthZone

    I don't think the product I selected from above is correct. I just know it was eSolutions. The AMS was old and outdated. We had to use multiple platforms for marketing, instead of having it all in one platform.

    Reasons for Switching to GrowthZone

    I think mainly for the features and cost. We looked into a few others besides MemberClicks and this was the best option.

    We chose GZ because it offered us the ability to use the same company for website development and hosting and AMS system ensuring compatibility. We are very happy with the look and feel of our website and the CMS used to manage it. Our migration to GZ for the AMS side was rocky at best. Our project manager had never gone through a detailed conversion before. While she was very service oriented and nice to work with, her inexperience caused many issues. We like GZ's ability to give a good view of member activity. I like that when I am on the phone with a member, I can see their engagement, make notes, and create follow up task items. G

    Pros

    The user interface, look, and feel of the back end. Also like the ability to integrate with the company website to create a good member only user experience. It also has a pretty good project management system, though it desperately needs push notifications via email. The only notification it provides is a badge count on the top menu of the software. So if you are disciplined to check there, the PM works well. GZ also has a certification/continuing education component which we find valuable.

    Cons

    Customer support needs work. GZ is very slow to respond to issues. Many times entered tickets are not responded to (first response) for 3 or more days (I am not counting the automated message generated that the ticket was received and someone would review). And, when the "front line" or 1st level support team reaches out, frequently they aren't completely familiar with the ins and outs of the software, so the first 3 emails or 15 minutes of the call are spent teaching them how the system works. The communications functionality has a great vision, but is inconsistent and extremely buggy. It is difficult and many times impossible to send a merged email to multiple members. Members get emails or newsletters with the fields not merged properly. It feels like the database was not developed with a vision and as the software was enhanced and features added, bandaids were placed on the tables to make them work together. Field naming is inconsistent and many times not working as a true relational database. Feels like a consequence of growing quickly and not having one responsible group overseeing the programming growth. Different naming philosophy throughout different modules.

    Reasons for Choosing GrowthZone

    We wanted a more robust website that was easily integrated and provided member only content capabilities.

    Overall very good experience. As with all new systems, it takes time to learn the entire program. Even after 2 years, it seems I am still learning something new all the time.

    Pros

    Having the ability to access all members information in one place

    Cons

    It can get really slow at times which can slow down the processing time.

    We moved from ChamberMaster to Growthzone and have loved it. Having a one-stop shop for all AR (as we do this for 5 separate companies). Being able to have multiple invoices and bank accounts - wow!

    The user friendly platform is so easy to navigate

    Cons

    Event check-in is very cumbersome with a 2-part system - takes too long to check people in when you have a long line
