Compare MembershipWorks vs. eMembership for Labor Unions

eMembership is specifically designed for labor unions, distinguishing it from typical association management software that caters to professional societies or trade organizations. Unions require specialized features such as employer remittance, classification-based dues, collective bargaining agreements, grievance tracking, and organizing—elements that a generic system cannot accommodate. eMembership addresses these needs with 18 customizable modules while also providing essential association functions like member records, dues management, meetings, communications, surveys, and DOL-compliant electronic voting. Whether your union is local or international, eMembership is tailored to reflect your operational needs. Members can access the platform through a dedicated iOS and Android app, as well as a web portal. The system is hosted on infrastructure owned by Winmill, situated in a facility that is SOC 1 and SOC 2 audited and ISO 27001 certified.

eMembership is a specialized software solution designed for labor unions to streamline membership management by linking members to their respective employers, contracts, and dues classifications. Each member's profile consolidates essential information such as their status, dues history, employer affiliation, classification, contract details, grievances, and communications, eliminating the need for staff to recreate this data from spreadsheets. The system efficiently manages dues and remittances across various employers and contracts. Members can easily update their own information via a dedicated iOS and Android app or through the web portal, significantly reducing phone inquiries and manual data entry at the union hall. Targeted email and text campaigns reach the appropriate members by utilizing up-to-date records. Over 55 unions throughout North America currently utilize eMembership. Each subscription allows for unlimited staff users without incurring extra charges per member, ensuring that costs remain stable as your membership base expands.
