About

What sets Advantage apart as a superior subscription & product order management system is total flexibility. The flexibility allows you to efficiently run your business the way you want to. And with the rapid expansion of consumer preference for access to content through subscription and membership models—whether you’re a publisher, membership organization or product distributor—you need a market-responsive order-to-cash solution. Ecommerce is increasingly a critical revenue source for publishers and membership associations. But tying eCommerce into complete customer and related financial information is critical. Since Cider is built on the same system logic as Advantage, you immediately realize the power of 1,000s of features.

About

We work with individual and corporate membership bodies, and those that do both. It’s so much more than just a membership database! smartmembership is at the core of our membership and association management solution and can be configured to your specific requirements. It’s a 360° view of each member or organisation with analytics and dashboards to really enhance membership engagement and improve member retention. smartmembership dramatically reduces manual effort so you can focus on better servicing your members. With stress-free new subscriptions, flexible pricing and discount models, automated renewals, and reliable integration with your finance, marketing, training and other systems, your members will get the service they want, through the channel they need. In the same way that smartmembership gives your staff a 360° view of each member so you can offer them great service, each member can self-serve directly online through the smartmembership portal on your web site.
