"Effective tool for Member Engagement" What do you like best about Higher Logic Thrive? I admit I was skeptical about purchasing Higher Logic Community because I was not sure the benefit would warrant the cost - staff convinced me to try it. Within the first three months, I saw the value of the community, especially for the association board and committees, and began to see the potential for membership engagement. About the same time, the pandemic hit! The community platform was a lifeline for many of our members. The opportunity to engage with each other on the platform was a valuable networking avenue, especially when our members were isolated and disconnected from each other. Now that restrictions regarding work location and travel are being lifted, our members are still using the community at a high engagement rate. The association membership has grown in the past two years. I attribute some of that growth to enhanced engagement through the community platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
