The 3 Gold-Standard, Must-Use, Best Fraternity Software Products

 So you’re looking for the best of the best fraternity software out there. You’ve got goals, and you need the right tools to reach them.

There’s always someone out there telling us to invest in gold. Gold is such a sure thing, they say. The U.S. Treasury has a term for it: the gold standard.

Why, oh why, are we talking about shiny metal? Because it’s sturdy, it’s dependable, it’s proven, and it’s valuable.

That’s exactly what your fraternity software should be.

You need programs geared toward your chapter’s tasks and goals so you can keep on track and on pace. “Gold standard” means the best. But it also means software that’s been proven.

We’re talking the software solutions, websites, and applications that no longer need to prove they’re the G.O.A.T. They’ve been around the block, and they lend your chapter the dependability you need.

Let’s get into it. Here are OmegaFi’s 3 Gold-Standard, Must-Use, Best Fraternity Software Products.

3. WhoDoYou (Trust with Your Chapter’s Money)

Like everyone else, you’ve probably had those “review” apps on your phone for years.

You know: the ones that let you instantly read user experiences about restaurants, clubs, and other businesses. Usually they have a star rating system, as well as customer-written reviews, so you can quickly decide whether to become a customer.

Some well-known review software includes apps like Yelp, AroundMe, and Google Maps.

However, WhoDoYou has a unique spin on user reviews that brings community together.

It’s perfect for fraternity chapters like yours, because it specializes in bringing locals to the table. This software gathers recommendations shared in public, genuine conversations on social media.

The benefit of this is that you know these reviews aren’t misleading or fabricated for advertising purposes.

WhoDoYou helps your chapter find:

  • caterers for socials, formals, recruitment events, and more
  • restaurants and other venues
  • reputable businesses to team up with for philanthropies
  • photographers for promotional pictures and capturing chapter gatherings
  • businesses to produce t-shirts, fliers, banners, etc.

The possibilities are endless. Planning a fraternity house renovation? Your alumni housing corporation can use this software to scope out potential contractors, architects, and other real estate professionals.

Whatever your brotherhood needs, it’s smart to make sure you’re making the best investment possible. After all, it’s coming out of your pockets. So use WhoDoYou to hear what real people in your community recommend.

OmegaFi’s Premium Software Option: OmegaOne

Once you decide to whip out the Official Chapter Checkbook™, you’ll want to plan your events and goals as efficiently and consistently as possible, so you don’t waste a dime.

OmegaOne is perfect for communicating on the fly. For instance, say the alumni engagement chair finds the perfect Italian restaurant to host an alumni dinner. He wants to talk it over with other officers.

He shares a quick message that he’s at the restaurant, to see if anyone can stop by and look over the space. He sends photos, shares his map location, and includes a .pdf of the menu that he downloaded.

He uses the owner’s quote for catering to create a mock contract, in case they’d rather host the dinner at another location.

The right fraternity software products can help you find the best bang for buck in the planning stage, and then move through a project from start to finish.

2. Fraternity Fundraising with Bonfire

Fundraising means your chapter must promote, promote, and promote some more to reach your goals. It’s that simple.

How can software help the cause?

When you need to get the word out, having the right tool can get you volunteers, donations, and the right kind of recognition for your chapter, national organization, and campus.

Bonfire offers several promotional tools to get your fundraiser up and running.

Bonfire has plenty additional tips and tools to promote your chapter fundraiser. They’re well worth checking out.

OmegaFi’s Premium Software Option: Vault
