Personify360 is a constituent management and engagement (CME) platform with flexible capabilities. The product is presented as ideal for medium to large organizations, and creates a unified view of constituent data across all channels of engagement. Boasting scalability, Personify360 manages multiple business lines, complex transactions and is flexible enough to meet the needs of any organization.
We've had a very disappointing experience with MemberClicks. Purchased in 2016 for our small association, and enjoyed years worth of amazing service. After the company was purchased, in my experience, service began to wane. Emails begin to say "response may be delayed." We had to add a calendar invite to follow up with all service tickets. No new functionality was introduced. COVID was a challenge for our association, and MemberClicks kept increasing prices - "client success" was removed. Terms and conditions changed in March 2023 with limited notice. Pricing increased by 20% in July 2023. Based on confusing terms, we requested a phone call. I received an email: "Thanks [...], we do not have phone support..." In my opinion, this is a stark contrast to the opening of the company's mission: "We talk with you..." In fact, in my experience, they don't. For us, a very disappointing conclusion to a relationship that we relied upon to connect and engage our members.
Personify works very well for professional societies, but it is somewhat cumbersome to use if you are managing multiple sections and/or societies. It works very well for us as our Accounts Receivable system, but that might not work for everyone.
What I really like about Personify360 is that, above all, it is easy to use. Individual member files are easy to maintain and edit as needed.
Personify360 also gets a lot of points for its presentation. We find it simple to understand as a lot of the interface is very intuitive for users. This goes for first time users, which in turn makes this software relatively easy to train new staff on.
Lastly, Personify360 does a good job of disseminating information. As an organization, we've gained a lot of insight into the inherent data compiled through logging our membership base into the software.
Personify needs to provide a true web-based system.
Personify does not always think through new offerings making it hard to make a new function or feature work with the existing system. However, they are good with acknowledging and fixing such issues that arise.
Fundraising module needs to be able to recognize all subsystems when showing a customer's donor history. Currently, the system only shows fundraising subsystem donations in the customer's giving history when there could have been a donation made as part of a membership dues renewal campaign.
MemberClicks was one of the first tools I used and really hit off well with it. Prior to this I used to manage everything on Google sheets which was cost effective in short term but considering the amount of time I invested into it in long-term certainly Memberclicks was much more cost-efficient.
Although my usage of Oracle software was different in nature to Personify360, I prefer the Personify360 interface as it I found it more easier to use and needing less training to accomplish my tasks. I also believe that Personify360 was a less expensive option, while still offering essentially the same functionality. I can't speak for the support aspect of this software, as we never really need it!
