Celect is focused on meeting your organizational needs, so we built our platform to support organizations of all types and sizes. The Celect platform empowers your organization with the tools you need to manage, grow, and succeed, as well as empowering your members to manage their daily activity from one centralized location.
Celect is seamlessly integrated with Facebook. We make it easy for you to navigate between your organization's website and your Facebook account. From Facebook, one click can send you directly to your organization's home page or login page.
All members of your organization have their own custom profile. Here, members can showcase their biographies, pictures, or other personal information. Profiles can be viewed on private or public pages and can be easily exported into an Excel spreadsheet.
Celect understands relationships between organizational headquarters and local membership groups. Sharing information between entities is critical for harmonizing values, goals, and a community presence. Celect allows you to easily network your organization with a parent or child organization.
A great feature on the Celect Platform is the freedom to build custom forms to meet your organization's needs. Perhaps you need inquiry forms, sign-up lists, surveys, or to sell some items—whatever it is that you need, you can easily build it with a few clicks. Best of all, with CelectPay™, you can easily collect payments for items from your website. You can post the form for your members to access, and then monitor feedback and payments with real-time submissions reports. These reports can be exported to an Excel file.
All organizations have important topics that need to be discussed. Perhaps your organization's members are separated by distance or time zones. Message boards provide a space where members can submit their comments about various topics, and the threaded feature allows participants to easily follow the conversation. You can discuss topics locally and nationally, depending who you give access to the discussion. This is a great way to gather organization input while overcoming the barriers of time, distance, or people's busy schedules.
Photo and video galleries are a great way for you to showcase your organization's greatest assets—your members! This is a great place to share photos from a recent event or community activity. We allow you to tag your photos, so this can also help you put a name to a face within your organization. You can create public or private directories, and our photo approval system ensures that the images posted on your site are consistent with your organization's values.
At Celect, we understand that you need to have solid communication channels in your organization. We have an email tool that allows you to send a message to individuals, mass message your entire organization, or send messages to members assigned to a specific organizational role (i.e., send a message to all members in the "Alumni" role). You can also send press releases for your organization, circulate your newsletter, updates, alerts, or even messages to increase morale.
Raising funds is the backbone of all organizations, big or small. With Celect, you can easily encourage member participation by conducting fundraisers and donations campaigns online. Easy-to-use reporting will keep you informed on each donation or payment made to your organization.
We know raising funds is important to your organization, but that you also want it to be easy for your donors or members to contribute. Celect's online payment processing allows your organization's website to be an online fundraising and donations center. Your members can pay bills, dues or make donations online by utilizing CelectPay™. You can easily keep track of payments and donations in real-time through self-generated reports.
A benefit of being in an organization is the networking opportunities through forming relationships. Regardless of what type of organization you belong to, you can still post and share professional opportunities that your fellow members may be interested in pursuing. You may create public or private web pages displaying job and internship postings, which allows you to reward your members with tremendous opportunities.
The group feature encourages members to interact with each other and continue to explore the organization's public and private sites to increase website traffic. Each group serves as its own online community and is essentially a sub-organization within your organization. Any member can create a group or multiple groups.
This feature allows you to easily create one-time or repeating events and display them on your organization's online calendar. You can include important details like location and time, or send invitations and track RSVP responses. The Celect system helps you to view member participation through our user-friendly platform.
Celect's Content Management System refers to our suite of tools that help you better manage organizational communications. This includes building your website, permissions levels, storing member data, and more. There is no need to know HTML or use special programs, since we are a WYSIWIG (What You See Is What You Get) platform. Adding text, creating forms, uploading pictures, or anything you would like to do, is easily done through our Content Management System.
We understand that your organization needs to communicate as your public “face,” but also needs to communicate internally. We provide public pages which are available to any site visitors, but we also give you the option to make other pages private. Any content or pages selected as private can only be viewed by members with login credentials. You may create as many pages as you would like, as often as you would like.
Members of your organization play different roles and have different duties within your organization. The Celect Platform allows you to assign different permissions and “member roles” to individual members. For instance, you may assign members to leadership, committee, volunteer, or alumni roles. They will be able to view and manage information according to the role they play in the actual organization.
An important aspect of your organization's communication is the ability to share information. The Celect Platform allows you to upload photos, videos, PDFs, or word processing documents to share with your members. You may choose whether these files are visible to the public, or are only accessible to members who have login credentials. This is a central place to file manuals, minutes, contracts, organizational policies, and much more.
