Bertazon investigated a number of membership management services, but was drawn to Avectra's netFORUM Team edition for its 100 percent web-based, anytime anywhere access, and the complete, comprehensive feature set OnDemand provided for an organization of his size and budget. "netFORUM Team was the complete solution at the most cost effective price," said Bertazon. "Equally attractive was the robust and fully redundant set of security features to protect our membership data."
