AlumnForce
About AlumnForce
AlumnForce is a private professional social network solution for managing alumni networks. The modular platform facilitates the management of school, university, and other educational networks, and allows students, graduates, alumni, recruiters, teachers, and staff to engage and connect.
With the AlumnForce online directory, educational institutes can keep member databases up-to-date with automatic updates based on any data entered by members. The software can import data from existing databases and includes an admin dashboard for managing information and permissions. Real-time statistics are generated based on alumni activity and demographics, and metrics such as active accounts, geographic distribution, starting salary, and job sectors.
AlumnForce can be used for alumni engagement by creating and sharing articles, newsletters, and media galleries, as well as hosting and advertising events. Statistics will illustrate the performance and impact of distributed media, with reports on data such as open rates and click throughs. Additionally, members can create and manage public or private groups with dedicated agendas, private walls, and media galleries.

Great experience so far
Reviewed on 2023/06/09
Pros
We selected AlumnForce after hesitating between several providers. And I'm very happy we chose them. the team is super friendly and helpful. Client support est great and so far I've been able to implement everything I needed to get a platform that I can get our alumni engaged with. The fact that there are multiple modules andd that we can ask for ffurther developments is perfect. Also they have in-person meetings to meet the team and get insights ffrom other users. I am lookign forward to it.
Cons
Our main difficulty is not really linked to the product itself : it is to get every alumni onboard, including the ones that graduated many years ago. Our goal now will be to use this tool to its fullest and communicate well.

Our new AlumnForce based Alumni platform ment a significant and very positive change within the Alumni life of our big university. Great tool also for our Alumni Chapters! Thanks to this our members can enjoy several benefits online, 24/7 from wherever they are. AlumnForce team is professional, kind and reliable. Huge advantage is the availability of further moduls and that we can automatically enjoy some extras too, due to the continuous overall development of the system. Our dedicated project manager helps to further develop and improve the functionalities thus greatly helping our endeavors.
Pros
Great way of e.g. communication, shareing events & news, event organization, boosting alumni contacts & engagement and also of managing membership data. And also that we do not need to bother with server issues.
Cons
We are satifsfied with it up till now (that we could not yet implement some functions - like e.g. some moduls, mobile app - is due to our lack of capacity).
