Nimble AMS, from Community Brands company NimbleUser, is an association member management software for larger entities, with member portal, order processing and event registration, and other features. NimbleUser also offers Nimble Sync, a platform for integrating association members' contact information from disparate systems to create a single source of truth, as an associated service.
Daxko is great for managing our members. As members enter the organization they are promoted to sign in and the staff are taken to their Daxko page which gives us all of their contact information. This is a helpful feature and I have no complaints. In terms of signing people up for programs through the same system, it can be complicated because there are a lot of extra steps to take in the sign up process
It seems Events/Products/Exhibitors and Programs seem to work fairly well in this system. They are very functional out of the box and I appreciate the ability to customize without having to do it with code. I'd like to see more attention focused on Donation functionality, i.e. pairing a donation with a merchandise purchase, ability to match a guest donation with a current person account, ability to have multiple entities and use recurring donations. I'd also be interested in seeing the Community Hub Management tool be expanded to allow for more flexibility and customization of pages and their underlying fields and data sources.
Operations provides us with accurate membership billing
We love the access given to us for detailed reporting for memberships and programs
Ease of use and accuracy for our fundraising records and entries
Customer Service with Daxko is top notch! I actually love calling with any issue that I may have, because they seem truly happy to help. Makes it worth while!
Since it is a web based service, I can access it at anytime to correct any issues that may occur.
I have given suggestions to Daxko and they are very receptive to my comments & agree with me. On Engage you can "task" to individual people but, can only "task" a department on an initiative - I'd like the option to task my entire department so whoever has contact with that member first can implement the task. (Side note: the majority of my staff is part-time and do not work consecutive days - this is part an in-house operations issue which is why I made the suggestion for small non-profits such as ourselves)
Overall we selected Daxko Operations because it’s used and recommended by YMCAs across the nation. When comparing similar systems we concluded that the features and the price of Daxko were comparable to any of the other systems that promised the same features. Overall we are pleased with our decision.
Nimble AMS was much further developed while other groups were just beginning. Their continued growth and moving forward over the years have lent them a degree of expertise I have not yet seen in comparable groups.
Online registration for programs has encouraged more people to participate in our programs. They can register in the comfort of their own homes.
We are going 24/7 this month, and with Daxko's Mobile Pass that connects with Operations, we feel that not only will we be able to increase our membership base, but provide a safe and secure environment for our members to access any time of the day!
Everything that Daxko Operations provides to us as customers contributes significantly to our success as a YMCA.
It's made a significant impact on the way we approach strategic decisions due to the data we're able to collect and analyze.
It's allowing us to automate processes that we never thought of automating in the past, freeing up staff resources to focus on other tasks
Our initial implementation was a bit messy, but working with the Nimble AMS team to analyze and rethink our strategy with a clearer vision has been very positive
