This is the best overall use and price of anything I have looked at.
Lack of graphic user interface windows type of environment but I’m used to text based so that’s not too much of a problem.

buggy but still great
Kommentare: Love the program but not all the most recent changes
Vorteile:
Most affordable program that does the job.
Nachteile:
Buggy and no support. Flags can't be toggled.
Great software with loads of useful features
Kommentare: It meets our needs perfectly. When I have run into a problem or roadblock, if the help system didnt give me an answer, an email to tech support almost always did. And when I requested a simple feature (like being able to sum/average a numeric custom field, MemberTies provided it in a subsequent release.
Vorteile:
I have used MemberTies since 2009. It provides the membership management that we need - contact info, status, custom fields, dues management. The user-defined reports (only in Pro version) provides the info we need for downstream processes (label printing, email list management, telephone committee, etc.).Having used all kinds of applications and systems since 1976, it is one of the most feature rich and well developed application that I have ever used!!! Tech support has always been responsive (less than a day) and helpful (with the answer or tip that I needed). The built-in help feature is one of the best I've ever read - with steps, images, tips, etc.I looked at 5-8 other applications and nothing came close on features we needed and at a price we could afford. And what we need is a fraction of what MemberTies provides.
Nachteile:
There were a few changes in the 2022 release that made a few tasks more tedious.If we needed to access it from anywhere, this wouldnt be the product that I'd choose. But we dont need online access, so it's meets our needs.
Reliable functionality; excessively complicated
Kommentare: It has given us a strong, reliable method of documenting our membership, but it has inhibited us from adapting to modernized functionality, such as communication by group emails.
Vorteile:
It is steady and without failures. The templates are thorough and comprehensive.
Nachteile:
Excessively complicated for all but basic functions. Documentation is byzantine and difficult to search effectively.
Antwort von Myrro International
vor 6 Jahren
Thanks for your feedback. If we can improve the documentation, please let us know. We provide standard Windows html help as a website, and also as a help file within the program, which should be pretty standard. You also can press F1 on any window to be taken straight to the help related to that window, which should simplify searching.
Top Drawer Software for Top Drawer Organizations
Kommentare:
As a Sportsmen's Association with more than 1700 members, discerning and understanding the consensus of membership desires is challenging. Surveys help, but tend to be skewed. With MemberTies Pro we can track what our members are doing, rather than what they say they're doing. The resulting data allows us to dedicate assets where the Association will gain the most benefit from the expenditure. We know our members better, and thus can serve them better.
Also, a word about MemberTies support: Absolutely fantastic. I have dealt with lots of different software packages in my day (many unrelated to MBT subject matter) and I have dealt with good support people before, but nobody has EVER equaled MemberTies Customer Support quality. Their responsiveness is unparalleled -- I have always had a response in 24 hours or less; often just an hour or so (unless I write outside reasonable business hours). Their diligence in tracking down a problem I had was impressive, and we worked together to get things resolved and back on track. They were also extremely helpful when I needed to make changes to our database (due to poor original decision-making in our organization); the MemberTies people listened to what I needed, made the fix perfectly, and got my revised database back to me in 24 hours. I can't say enough great things about MemberTies support. They're absolutely top drawer.
Vorteile:
MemberTies Pro is a powerful, flexible, scalable solution for tracking membership matters. It has really assisted me, as Membership Chair, in doing my job properly and efficiently. I can track things that were difficult or impossible to follow previously, which allows me to nip problems in the bud before they fester and cause upset and bruised egos; thus helping to make the Association run smoothly. I can, with a little thought, search out any group of members I need with an easy and straightforward search protocol that's simple and intuitive to use. I can teach others to handle the software in its essentials in very short order for when I'm gone. It's a great product; better than any other I've seen or experienced.
Nachteile:
I'm hard put to come up with something that I don't like about the software. I've made a couple of suggestions for new features along the way, and the support people at MemberTies have incorporated them into their routine update releases. I was very surprised when that happened. I've never had a support person make changes to increase the capability of their software short of a whole new version for a whole new price. But the MemberTies people have done just that. I guess if pressed, I'd say that I'd appreciate a way to (obviously) mark files in multiple ways so that I can keep certain files separated from the rest at a glance, rather than having to open the file to verify that it contains what I want (or don't want). But this is a minor issue for me really.

Thank you for your feedback! As far as marking certain records... it may be possible to create a custom field with a checkbox or whatever, and then add that field to the default view (the membership list) so it is always displayed without needing to open the record.

Kommentare:
Overall, I'm happy with the program. I would like to see the ability for a network based DB and multiple PC's log into it at same time.
Email features are wonderful. Set up a template and run them when needed. The program is robust enough to do what I need but still small enough to run on a basic laptop.
Vorteile:
Software is quite easy to follow and use. Reports are very valuable and to an extent customizable to what I need.
Nachteile:
When members drop off, the database cannot be compacted to reuse open numbers. The timing on renewal and drop status had some bugs in it that will put members in drop status when they are not.
Antwort von Myrro International
vor 6 Jahren
Hi, If you'd like the database to reuse member numbers after the member has been deleted, you need to create a list of IDs (preloaded Member IDs) so the program has a list to follow. Then it will choose the next available ID when creating a member, and put it back in the stack when the member is deleted. (Based on preference settings.) Automatic status changes should only happen when a status is set to automatically change to a new status on the expiry date (plus any grace period). So be sure to verify settings on your statuses if someone changes status unexpectedly.
REview
Kommentare: Good overall
Vorteile:
Is comprehensive. Keeps track of a lot of things and makes good reports.
Nachteile:
The city fill is annoying. "The value "-" is not in the city list. Do you want to add it?" That's a waste of time. Of course I want to add it. Zip codes ought to be autofilled. It should remember the zip code you entered the first time for a city and remember it. When doing report sorting, things like specifying the date are cumbersome and require too many clicks.
Antwort von Myrro International
vor 6 Jahren
Hi, Thanks for your feedback! The reason the City field prompts you to see if you want to add it when you type something new is because without the prompt, a typo would cause a new city entry to be created when you really meant it to be the same. Then you can't search for everyone in a particular city any more, because there are unintended variations. Fortunately, if you do intend to add the new city, just pressing Enter will dismiss the popup and add it to the list, so it's one extra keypress. A ZIP code auto-fill is something we are considering, but there are many cities with multiple ZIP codes associated with them, so it gets a little tricky.
No customer support
Kommentare: Program works great but now I do not trust them.
Vorteile:
THis program works well and is far cheaper than any competitor I can find
Nachteile:
Can not get support from them. I purchased a renewal but I can not get them to send me the new key for the software even though I paid for it. When I chat online with them they just say they will cancel order. This is not the way business should be done. Love the program but no longer trust them.
Antwort von Myrro International
vor 6 Jahren
Unfortunately, all email sent to this customer bounced. When the customer contacted us via our chat app, we tried to explain this, but he got angry and said we were lying because he can receive email from other people, despite the obvious fact that we have a folder full of bounced email errors. Then he said he wanted a refund and would be calling his credit card company to cancel the charge. We said we could do that, and started to ask for an alternative email address, but he abruptly disconnected. We refunded his charge immediately. Then he continued to send us angry emails demanding his license. Eventually he sent an email from another account under a totally different name, probably by accident, and received our reply to that, where we again explained that his purchase had been refunded as requested. We know that email was received because he replied to it with yet another angry, email. So hopefully he realizes the bounce issue was true.
Great for Small Swim/Tennis Club
Kommentare: Fantastic customer service. Even if we had issues over the weekend, we could always get someone to help. Great product and great value.
Vorteile:
We have been using Member Ties since 2005. It was easy to use and to train our Front Desk Staff. Once we started using this software to check in members, our guest fees increased by over $5K.
Nachteile:
When we started, they did not have the Friends/Family tab so we had to use Associated and had to create a new record with a new member number for each family member. We also wish we could take the photo for the member directly from within Member Ties. It is an extra step to take the photo and then associate with the member.
Antwort von Myrro International
vor 6 Jahren
Hi, If you would like to convert an existing Associated record to a Friend/Family record, there is a right-click option to do that. Just right-click the associated name, and choose "Convert to Friends/Family". If you need to do that with a large number of records, contact support and we can help do it in bulk.
Why MemberTies......
Kommentare: I was able to take the records of two organizations from spreadsheets to a membership application which provides relevant data about the organization which was unobtainable from spreadsheets. The freedom of writing your own reports and the free format fields means that two different organizations were able to have data extracted that they required and even though both were using the same MamberTies there data was vasty different but necessary for both rganizations
Vorteile:
MemberTies does what it says on the tin. I am able to mnage a club with a 500 members and a club with 50 members using Member Ties. It has everything that is needed to "keep track of members", the ability to write your own reports to extract what you need from the members data base, free format fields to collect the data that yur organization requires, manage membership dues which is very time consuming and best of allcommunicate to all members using the email functionality to keep members abrest of what is happening within the organization and future events which may be f interest to members
Nachteile:
The one thing you have to be aware of is that this is a Membership application with email functionality not a email application with membership functionality. Sending emails to members can be a bit of a "fiddle" bur it does the job.

Review of Member Ties by a Aviatrion Museum
Kommentare: Member Ties makes membership renewal a breeze. I print letters a month ahead of time and as they are returned, I can process and see who needs a reminder.
Vorteile:
It's ability to manage a database for membership communication such as letters, e-mail and more is outstanding.
Nachteile:
I have a hard time with the word processing function. I can print reports fine direct to my printer, but must print documents to a pdf file then reprint from outside Member Ties.
Antwort von Myrro International
vor 6 Jahren
Thank you for your feedback. The only reason I can think of that documents would not print would be a printer driver issue. If you have a particularly old printer that doesn't support unicode, for example, it may not be able to print to it.
Member Ties
Kommentare: Our senior center has over 1000 members. Easy to record members and keep track of birthdays etc.
Vorteile:
Ease of use. Home screen has all the most needed information right at fingertips. Wide variety of options.

Hi, Sorry you're having trouble creating user-defined reports. Please contact support when you're stuck and we'll be happy to help walk you through it. The user-defined reports are pretty powerful, and thus have a lot of options. Let us know what we can explain better!
Solid product with helpful customer service
Kommentare: Overall, we've had great success with Member Ties. It does what we need it do, and we use it simply.
Vorteile:
Simple and easy to use features with a great help section.
Nachteile:
In a world of glitzy, easy to use interfaces, Member Ties appears to be less user friendly and more technical.
Antwort von Myrro International

Hi, Thanks for your feedback! That "older" look and feel of the program is one of the reasons we're in the middle of a massive rewrite. We want to update the user interface to be more modern, and more intuitive to ensure that it continues to perform as Windows versions continue to change. There have been a lot of changes over the past 20 years, but it has meant the interface has become dated.
top notch software and support
Kommentare:
MT helps me keep track of our membership, dues payments, and other customized info. The reporting features in the Pro version are top-notch!! while the pre-defined reports are good, the ability to create user-defined reports is the BEST!!! i use them to generate a list of members w/ email addrs, w/ phone#, w/ full contact info, w/ reports of custom fields, info for mailing labels, etc.
MT has saved me lots of time in managing our membership.
KEEP UP THE EXCELLENT WORK!!!
Vorteile:
i've used all kinds of software applications since 1976. MemberTies is one of the best i've ever used - incredibly easy to use w/ neat little nifty ways of doing things. and when not exactly easy, the Help files wake me thru the steps. excellent software with fast and very helpful handling of questions/problems.
Nachteile:
wish one could customize the tool bar (add/remove function icons) so my most used functions were quickly available instead of having to go thru the menu system.

Member Ties Prifessional for New Users
Kommentare: After taking over the duties of Secretary for my Organization at the end of 2018 I have found that it is well worth the cost for the services provided. Even though the only customer service is through email they do a good job of solving the situations and questions.
Vorteile:
It is very easy to use for all general activities. Easy to add users. Gives you many categorizes to choose from on your files. Very continent to have someone else store all the data. No need to be concerned about the vast amount of data due to computer failure or crashes.
Nachteile:
I would like to see some tutorials available for different tasks. The customer service is good, would like to see if it would be available for users to contact help other than through email only.
Antwort von Myrro International
vor 6 Jahren
Thanks for your feedback! Support has always been available via email, telephone, or most recently, online chat. We answer lots of calls every day, but we do normally recommend email because it enables us to respond with links to specific areas of the help system for better explanations. (We can also respond to simple questions via email while waiting for people on the phone to finish a task.)
Perfect software for any membership organization
Kommentare: We directly increased out communication with out members using the email capabilities. We increased our revenue with regular billing and payment processing. The management reports let us know where we stand at all times.
Vorteile:
Flexibility to customize the way we get what we need
Nachteile:
Not much. I guess so many options can be confusing but that is MemberTies strength!
Antwort von Myrro International
vor 6 Jahren
Thank you for your feedback! You're right that it's hard to have lots of flexibility and power without a bit of a learning curve IF you need to do one of the more complex things (like creating custom reports for example).
MEMBERTIES IS THE BEST
Kommentare: We lose 20% of our base year over year and pick up another 20% new members. MemberTies makes it a simple task to keep up. Simplicity is the best.
Vorteile:
Our 400 man senior golf group is very mobile (it's like herding cats). By using MemberTies, we're able to stay abreast of all of the changes.
Nachteile:
None, for a senior citizen to be able to negotiate the program is the best feature.

International Association membership
Kommentare: Our membership records have been well managed with MemberTies for well over a decade.
Vorteile:
perfectly reliable, flexible searches and reports. Very good support. The embedded email feature is very handy.
Nachteile:
We never have managed to get the system set up for a three multi-user office. We would appreciate more ability to customize the main input screen (instead of clicking through multiple tabs). Since we don't use the Activity features, they should be suppressed.
Antwort von Myrro International

Thanks Jerry. Note that if you don't use one of the features on the member record (such as Activities), you can go to Preferences and hide that tab so you don't see it anymore. Unfortunately it isn't possible to modify the main program screens.

Good Value For The Money
Kommentare: Memberties has been a very reliable program for the past 10 years that we’ve used it. What few “hiccups” that happened due to me or software were quickly taken care of by the support group.

Almost too many options and not enough instructions in “Help.” I’ve never been able to successfully use built in email feature.

We are a private club and have no paid employees.

Nachteile:
It won't address envelopes or postcards.
Antwort von Myrro International
vor 6 Jahren
Hi, Regarding envelopes, that's a shortcoming of reports that we plan to address in the next major release. The current workaround is to use the Document tool, which does have support for various formats, so you can generate them that way. Otherwise, the only option is generating mailing labels or a user-defined post card report with just addresses.
