In Use:

They target both large and small not-for-profit organizations such as societies, associations, civic-organizations, charities, and nonprofits. A cloud-based software – MemberLeap has three distinct tools that their users can take advantage of.

MemberLeap is more well known for their member management services competing against other CRMs and association management solutions. Through the platform - users can track their donors through MemberLeap’s CRM, create invoices and automate payments; while also tracking and managing member data.

Users can also take advantage of their event management software capitalizing on their event registration tool, zoom interface, mobile app, and manage event volunteers. They similarly have tools to engage members with web design, newsletters, message boards and a text tool.

Regarding price – MemberLeap has various packages starting at $50 a month depending on a nonprofit’s needs – but considering that clients pay per feature – it could potentially add up. If you’re unsure if you can afford an association software like MemberLeap -try-before-you-buy with a free trial.

My Opinion”

Deciding on a CRM shouldn’t be taken lightly. Make sure that before you decide on MemberLeap that they have the ability to migrate your data, and can show you how to navigate their platform. What I do like about the platform is that small to large nonprofits can customize their package to fit their needs so they’re not paying for services they don’t want and are only paying for those that they do.

Before deciding on whether or not to purchase MemberLeap – don’t forget that they offer a free trial.
