Creating solutions for our clients has allowed us to gain the experience, knowledge, and expertise necessary to provide the best solutions to unions. In our experience, many of the problems, challenges, and limitations that labor unions faced with their old software solutions included:

• Their old software was very old and temperamental.
• Their old software didn’t configure well with other programs and had compatibility issues.
• Their old system was patched to be Y2K compliant but several bugs still remained.
• Their old system was soon going to be unable to function with new programs and new computers.
• Their old system was not user-friendly
• It was difficult to create layouts and change databases.
• They could not use it to e-mail.
• Dues processing was unnecessarily repetitive and slow and very labor intensive.
• Doing manual dues involved manually entering the same figure fore everyone over and over again.
• Transactions were lengthy and difficult.
• Creating reports was a tedious task.
• Every time that there was a bug in the old system they had to wait for the programmer to go to their location and fix it.
• There were problems in how the old system worked with their accounting program.
• The old system was incapable of reading calculations and couldn’t understand negative balances.
• There were limitations on the fields you could report on.
• It was difficult to import and export files.
• Creating a new field was time consuming and susceptible to bugs.

In the development of UnionAid, a solution was created to change, improve, and repair all of these problems and more. UnionAid, just as our name suggests, we are here to aid unions.
