CampusGroups Reviews

Very easy to set up and manage events, including marketing, registration, and attendance. The QR code function is great. The system is flexible enough and gives you many options for setting up your events. The member directory is also very helpful. You can also allow external guests to sign up for clubs and events even they don't have an account with your institution. It's also very nice that admins can impersonate other users to help troubleshoot issues or provide support.

The report module can be slow sometimes. While the directory function is very good and flexible, there isn't a way to list everyone and print out the list.

We provide this tool to student clubs. Because the tool is fairly easy to use, club leaders are able to manage their own club sites and events without much training and handholding. This allows them autonomy and self-reliance.

Campus Groups creates a virtual space where it’s easy to collaborate with other students online

Communication isn’t always immediate and can take a while to receive responses

It’s easy to collaborate with each other even though we can’t be on campus in person

One thing that I think is great about CampusGroups is that when you create an event in your group, you can post the flyer. This is extremely important because the paper flyers we create for our events can be replicated for CampusGroups. It makes it easier for students and faculty to get the most important information about an event, besides the description. In addition, you can use and create tags for events. This makes it simple for students and faculty to find events that are geared towards them. For example, I can tag an event as "LGBTQ" and those in the community can search for events specifically tagged as such.

One thing I dislike about CampusGroups is that when I have created an event, there is no way to preview it before posting. Yes, I can save it as a draft and then preview that way, but it would be much easier if there was an ability to just click "Preview" to see what the event will look like once it goes live on CampusGroups.

If you want your events to be easily created and user-friendly, then CampusGroups may be the system for you!

I find that our events are being better reached for students and faculty. Every day, emails are automatically sent out through our own campus system that lists events for the next two dates. They can easily click on the event and it brings them to our event page. The integration is excellent and by allowing students and faculty to register for the amount, it gives our organization a better idea as to how many people will be at our events. I also love the option to ask those who have registered for feedback, as this could be very helpful for future events.
