Switching from Glofox
Keep Glofox for the work it already does well. We import your member roster, plans and renewal dates so billing continues without a gap, and run both side by side until the last renewal clears.
Add-on ladders and per-staff pricing scale with headcount, not success
Suites price by location, by staff seat or by tier, then add marketing, apps and automation as paid rungs — and the bill rises whether or not membership revenue does. BoomCloud is $197/mo + $4.50 per active member (Basic) or $397 + $3.50 (Pro), published, with the per-member portion designed to be built into membership dues so the plan funds its own capacity and support. Keep the suite. Add the engine.
One question to ask Glofox
“Who in that company is measured on how many members you enroll next month?”
