Sound Familiar?

The iMIS frustrations we hear most.

Every change needs a consultant

Customizing iMIS requires certified implementers. Simple workflow changes turn into expensive consulting engagements — and months of waiting.

Licensing costs keep climbing

Annual iMIS licensing, implementation fees, and add-on modules add up fast. Many associations spend more on the software than on mission-delivery.

The interface hasn't changed in years

Staff and members expect modern, mobile-friendly software. iMIS's legacy interface creates friction, drives down adoption, and wastes staff time.

Your data is held hostage

Extracting clean data from iMIS for reporting or migration is notoriously difficult. You're dependent on their tools and their timeline.

Integration is a project in itself

Connecting iMIS to email, finance, events, and your website requires custom API work — usually billed at consultant rates on top of licensing.

Cloud migration is never simple

Moving from on-prem iMIS to cloud is complex and expensive. Many organizations stay on aging servers because the migration feels impossible.

The Honest Comparison

iMIS vs. a custom AMS built for how you actually work.

iMIS

Legacy AMS platform

  • High licensing fees + mandatory implementation partner
  • Every customization requires a certified consultant
  • Legacy UI creates friction for staff and members
  • Data extraction is complex and often incomplete
  • Cloud migration is expensive and uncertain

What We Build

A modern AMS — without the legacy baggage.

Membership & Renewals

Custom membership tiers, auto-renewal billing, dues management, and committee tracking — built around your actual category structure.

Events & CPD

Event registration, capacity management, member pricing tiers, and continuing professional development (CPD) tracking — all in one system.

Data Migration from iMIS

We extract your iMIS data — members, contacts, committees, events, financials — clean it, and migrate it cleanly into your new system.

Integrations

Native connections to Salesforce, HubSpot, Mailchimp, QuickBooks, Stripe, and more — so your systems talk to each other without manual re-entry.

Secure Cloud Infrastructure

Canadian cloud hosting, automated backups, security monitoring, and PIPEDA-native infrastructure — replacing aging on-prem iMIS servers.

Member Portal

Self-service member portal where members update their profiles, register for events, access resources, and manage their own renewals — reducing staff load.

iMIS Migration

Getting out of iMIS doesn't have to be terrifying.

iMIS data extraction has a reputation for being painful. We've done it before. We know where the bodies are buried — and we have a process that doesn't break your operations in the process.

Talk to us about your iMIS migration
01

iMIS Audit

We map everything in your iMIS database — tables, relationships, custom fields, and historical records — before writing a single line of migration code.

02

Extract & Clean

We pull records from iMIS, identify duplicates and data quality issues, and clean before migrating — not after.

03

Parallel Build

Your new AMS is built while migration runs in parallel. No operational downtime — both systems run side-by-side until cutover.

04

Verified Cutover

We reconcile record counts, verify data integrity, and only flip the switch once you've signed off. Then we help you cancel iMIS.

Common Questions

Frequently asked about replacing iMIS

For many associations, yes. iMIS licensing plus implementation partners plus add-on modules often exceeds what a custom AMS costs over 5 years — and with iMIS you still don't own anything. We'll walk you through an honest cost comparison on a discovery call.
Typically 4–8 months depending on system complexity, the volume of historical data, and integration requirements. We'll scope it honestly after a discovery call — no vague timelines.
Yes — and usually better. We map your current workflows in discovery and build equivalents into your custom AMS. If you rely on specific iMIS modules like committee management or CPD tracking, we replicate and improve them.
It comes with you. We migrate full historical records — member history, event attendance, payment records, committee participation — not just active contacts. Nothing is left behind or archived out of reach.
