About

Grow your organization faster with smarter association software from GrowthZone. With GrowthZone, member-based organizations and association professionals can tap a comprehensive suite of productivity tools to identify prospects, empower and connect with members, and do more in less time. Top features include marketing automation, member database, mobile staff app, event management, email communication, and credit card processing. Why Switch to GrowthZone AMS? In the past, associations juggled multiple marketing platforms, Excel spreadsheets, and billing software to carry out their daily operations. Much of the day-to-day work was completed manually, and processes weren’t always efficient. However, GrowthZone’s AMS brings all these separate tools under one intuitive dashboard that does it all, while eliminating the most time-consuming tasks.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • For 20 years our association was using an old program to manage our customer information and memberships. We made the switch to GrowthZone in July 2022 and we have been so happy! The conversion /training process was well planned and issues were resolved quickly. The software allows us to easily update and manage our customer records and membership programs. Billing our customers and receiving online payments is very simple. We love the easy to use registration integration for our events and we have also been happy with the built in email platform.
  • Incredibly easy to navigate, excellent automated systems for dues billing and membership processing, well-designed user interface, quick response of support staff, extensive database of training resources.
  • - Generally easy interface - Produces high quality reports - Much better than the other programs I've used
  • We like that every feature that comes with GrowthZone are adapted for your Chamber. I was flabbergasted when I heard about the membership management & the automatic billing tools! It is definitely a time & money saver for us. The time dedicated to make the memberships' renewal monthly was undoubtedly a waste of time. Now, our accountant can concentrate on a more valuable task to make sure we are on top with our money.

Cons

  • We did have a few questions for support that took a while to resolve but most times we can use the chat feature and get questions answered quickly. We are using the Email feature to send bulk emails to our contacts. We wish there was more analytics available.
  • Reports/report filters could be a little more specific (can be difficult to determine what report to use to find specific information).
  • - Adding photos is sometimes a little clunky and saving them from inside the content addition screen is a non-starter. - Wish you could do more from the mobile app at times.
  • There are no cons on our end! This software is a game-changer for any Chambers still using Excel sheets or paper.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • ESX customizes the implementation for each customer to meet their specific needs. They are always available to discuss new ideas and solutions as the organization's needs change over time. The various modules allow the association to run most of its operations from one central database, including memberships, events, donations, electronic mailings, and website. Users can log in to manage their own information and access members-only benefits. Downtime is pretty much non-existent. ESX uses a ticket system to keep track of support requests, and the staff are easily reachable.
  • xCatalyst works well overall. There are some quirks, but for the money, it works very well. We've had very few issues, and when we have, they are quick to help us.
  • - Includes initial setup and staff training - Has specialized add-on modules to the content management system like eCommerce for courses or eCommerce for items. - Not a new company or system, so you get assurance of product quality and company stability - Easy to work with all areas of their staff - sales to technical to support - Fair pricing
  • Quick response time. Always there when you're in a bind! They make changes throughout the year to make it as easy as possible for the user. The staff is patient and extremely helpful!

Cons

  • Because the system is an all-in-one system, it may be a little clunky as you work to make it fit your needs without doing all-out customizations. The custom reporting is robust but complicated. A WYSIWYG editor is available for people without much HTML experience, but web folks will probably find it frustrating and will work outside of it as much as possible. Low priority support tickets can get pushed to the bottom of the queue and take a long time to be resolved.
  • It isn't perfect, but there are workarounds that allow us to get what we need. It does lack some features of much more expensive programs, but does great for the price.
  • - Takes a little time to learn all the areas of the add-on eCommerce for courses module, but they include some staff training, so not an issue
  • NONE. I am not a computer guy. When I got this job, I was most concerned about learning this new software-database system. They provided an excellent training program for me and a customer service rep who always answered my questions. No cons for me.
