Our Story

Rectangle 34626179

Clowder was established in 2017 to address a common engagement gap in professional communities. We knew early on we had a mobile platform like no other, one that could instantly propel organizations into modernization. Our story, however, goes beyond developing amazing apps—it's always been about connection. 

The name “Clowder” is most often used as a collective noun for a group of cats, but its history evokes the idea of coming or huddling close together. Since we strive to bring people closer to those within their industry, to their trusted news and resources, and to the groups that matter most to them, this name aligns well with our platform’s goal.

In 2023, Advanced Solutions International (ASI), a leading global provider of cloud software and services for associations and nonprofits, acquired Clowder as part of its growing family of innovative solutions to help purpose-driven organizations make a greater impact.

What Clowder Users Are Saying

Don’t just take our word for it—here is what real associations have to say about Clowder’s mobile member engagement platform!

Deputy Executive Director, American Baseball Coaches Association
“Clowder has completely changed how our members engage with ABCA. By putting everything in their hands via the app, we’ve seen higher retention, more frequent use of our resources, and an easier way for members to stay connected. The app’s real-time notifications and easy access to content have been a game changer for us.”
Kerri L. McGovernMPP, CAE, Senior Director of Membership, Association of Corporate Counsel
“We chose Clowder because they had existing integrations with our core systems, but also because Clowder is an innovative and agile team that is dedicated to enabling ACC to maximize the experience for our members.”
Megan CottrellDirector of Digital Strategy, Commercial Real Estate Women (CREW) Network
“Tipping points for Clowder [included] the app’s native design, their experience with NetForum and Higher Logic integrations, their transparency during demos, and their company’s culture.”
Albert PlochCFO, Texas Automobile Dealers Association
“Most of the apps we’ve had in the past revolved solely around events. TADA needed an app that was relevant all year long, easy to manage, and available at a cost-effective price. Clowder checked all the boxes.”
