Anything I was having issues with were resolved by the communal team quickly. > > Its been great. When i started using communal my workplace (now past) didn't secure any training for our team, So I reached out to wade personally for assistance and he got me trained and has been available to me every step of the way, I am currently setting my new work place up with communal as we speak. ----- ### "One of the best decisions our community has made" — 5.0/5 > **Shelley** | *July 2, 2022* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It was easy to migrate from our antiquated, and expensive system over to Communal's modern and easy to navigate platform. The features on Communal were built for our needs and functioned how we needed them to. If there was something that needed tweaking, their support team listened and made it better. Their support was amazing and we are very, very happy with using Communal. > > **Cons**: The only thing that I can say if I absolutely had to, is the invoicing module could be improved to include cloning and templates for recurring rental clients. It would also be great if the email module could be improved a little so that we could migrate from Mailchimp and integrate all of our communications through Communal. ----- ### "Solid membership management module" — 4.0/5 > **Gillian** | *February 18, 2026* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: automated sending renewal reminders, taking payment, issuing membership cards, and expiring memberships as needed. Saved many hours of manual effort per week > > **Cons**: can’t see emails sent to members. when a member renews with a different email a new client record is created and continuity is lost > > positive. technical support has been responsive and timely, most issues have been addressed. Solid product. ----- ### "Great software for a Community Association\!" — 5.0/5 > **Jay** | *August 31, 2026* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: A boutique software company with a desire to continually evolve their product to meet the needs of their clients. A great help desk. And a design approach that allows for customization of each module. > > **Cons**: The customization aspect. Sometimes confusing. But once you've done it once, it makes sense and is repeatable. > > We researched seven software programs before deciding on Communal. Their help desk support sealed the deal. ----- ### "Easy to use, fantastic customer support\!" — 5.0/5 > **Lisa** | *July 31, 2026* | Civic & Social Organization | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I appreciate the ease of use and the friendly, knowledgeable, patient and responsive customer support throughout the transition and beyond. > > **Cons**: I dont think its specific to Communal, but there was some confusion pertaining to automatic renewals because they could not carry over to the new platform. > > Overall, it has been a positive experience and we're glad we switched as Communal has allowed us for focus less on admin work and more on serving our community. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.ca/software/2052430/communal?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.ca/software/2052430/communal) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | ----- ## Structured Data
