Frequently Asked Questions About Clowder’s Mobile Engagement Solution

For more answers to common questions about Clowder, check out our FAQ page.

 

What is Clowder?

Clowder is a mobile engagement solution for professional communities that allows your organization to build its own year-round engagement app. Members can then download your branded app through iOS or Android to connect with your organization from their smartphones or tablets. Think of Clowder as a private social network for your organization, providing a personalized experience anytime, anywhere.

What makes Clowder stand out from other community engagement platforms?

Most community engagement platforms are primarily web-based, and some have mobile apps available as add-ons. Clowder flips this paradigm by focusing primarily on mobile app creation and offering its desktop portal (Clowder Web) as an add-on. Given that the average American spends more than five hours per day on their smartphone and uses mobile apps for about 90% of that time, your organization is more likely to cut through the clutter and increase platform adoption by providing members with a native mobile-first experience.

Additionally, Clowder users praise the platform for its flexibility, easy setup and management, and helpful customer support team.

Does Clowder support multi-chapter member engagement?

Yes! Clowder’s segmentation features allow your organization to tailor app experiences for members based on chapter, location, interests, involvement, and other criteria of your choice. If you manage multiple branches or locations, you can also customize administrative permissions for leaders of each chapter.

How much do Clowder’s solutions cost?

Clowder provides custom quotes for every organization based on membership size, number of backend users, setup assistance needs (especially regarding integrations), and feature usage (year-round app engagement, event tools only, Clowder Web, etc.). Contact our team for a personalized estimate!
