Is your association stuck “doing the best we can” in key areas because your AMS software is outdated and doesn’t perform?

It’s hard to calculate the real cost of those headaches for your staff or disappointed member expectations.

Let’s get your team and members the AMS software experience they need to thrive.

Cobalt has focused on association management software solutions for the association space and the challenges you’re facing since 1996. Explore the highlights from Engagement Dynamics, Cobalt’s refined AMS software and let us know if you’d like a quick AMS Tour.

We see Cobalt as one of our strongest partners. This was especially important during the pandemic. We had to quickly reconfigure various elements of our system and even think through some core operational changes. Cobalt’s solution is user-friendly and extremely adaptable, which made it simple to adapt to the new needs of our members. And our support team at Cobalt served as strategic partners through it all – a true extension of our staff.

Changing Your AMS Software Doesn’t Need to Be Painful or Overwhelming

There are many reasons that associations recognize it’s time to consider an AMS change. Most often, it is because of some deep frustration with your current system or AMS partner. So, you start the process of looking for a new system and partner. At this point, you quickly realize that the most daunting challenge for an association is often the internal cost of change for your team.

Change is invariably hard, especially when your team has been clinging to hard-won work-arounds for an AMS software solution that hasn’t been meeting your true needs. We know exactly how it can seem easier to live with a painful, broken system than to rally the team to start fresh. Some of your staff may not want to overhaul the tedious workflows and processes they’ve learned to live with over the years.

But this is another area where Cobalt’s deep, broad association experience will truly make your next AMS adoption different than any of your previous migrations or implementations. Think of us as a compassionate, confident team of change management experts for associations — as well as AMS software and system aficionados.
