Hear us out--the right fraternity software can make your life easier.
As a fraternity chapter advisor, you have a lot on your plate. It’s your job to function as a liaison between the chapter and national headquarters, plus you keep the chapter officers and members organized and on track.
Is everyone on time for events?
Paying dues?
Who’s tracking the fines?
It’s all on you.
When it comes to recruitment, you’re there, making sure everything runs like a well-oiled machine. On the personal level, you provide guidance, support, and encouragement for hitch-free events and day-to-day operations.
How would fraternity software make your life easier? You may think you don’t have time to take on a new software system. Surely there’s a steep learning curve, and when you’re as busy as the average chapter advisor, you may not feel like it’s the best investment of your time or money.
That’s where you’re wrong.
Investing in the right fraternity software can not only free up your time, it can make everyone in the chapter more efficient and organized. Here are some fraternity software basics that you need to know before taking the plunge into a new system. After all, we’re here to help, not be a burden or an unnecessary step. At OmegaFi, we pride ourselves on producing, maintaining, and updating the best fraternity software on the market today. Here’s how.

These fraternity software basics cover the most pressing needs of a fraternity chapter today. Financial management is critical to keeping the chapter with reliable receipts and in keeping chapter members and parents involved every step of the way. Communication tools keep events on track, and insure that the entire chapter balances the load rather than having all responsibilities fall on the officers and chapter advisor. Smooth communication holds everyone accountable for the chapter’s success.
Database management makes recruitment and alumni communications streamlined. It keeps your data in a central location and allows you to sort and organize those most important to the success of the chapter. Recruit management simplifies your recruitment period and makes sure that your chapter is focused year-round on bringing in the best and brightest talent.
"OmegaFi has consistently made our dues collection process as painless as possible while also providing a very competitive rate for their services. It would be unrealistic to say we do not struggle collecting dues from our brothers, however, OmegaFi’s software allows us to keep track of our brothers and easily charge special fees for large events, manage a roster of more than 120 rotating members, and provide outputs to [Microsoft] Excel to customize data to suit our exact needs."

Good fraternity software will reveal weak spots in chapter management and shore them up. It should show you more efficient pathways to achieve your goals, drive success, and help you act as an effective community leader more consistently.
OmegaOne is built by Greeks for Greeks and is meant not just to solve your problems today, but to anticipate the problems of tomorrow. Strong, direct communication among members is the fuel that drives the engine of chapter management, from funding, to planning, to engagement. The stronger your engine, the further you’ll go.
