Written by Debbie Willis, MBA | September 20, 2022 at 1:00 PM

If you use Higher Logic’s Community platform or their Informz email marketing automation tools, then we’ve got the inside scoop on some great news for iMIS users. 

In partnership with Association Technology Solutions (ATS) and Advanced Solutions International (ASI), the developers of iMIS, Higher Logic has developed a new integration bridge for the iMIS Engagement Management System (EMS) in the cloud. Read the full statement.

 

iMIS + Higher Logic = Smarter Data

Get a clear picture of your members’ engagement with you. This new, cloud-friendly integration brings together key contact and personalization data that can be scheduled to sync daily, hourly or on-demand as needed. With it, you'll be able to sync the following data from both platforms: 

  • Standard contact fields 
  • Segmented marketing lists from IQAs (Intelligent Query Architect dynamic lists in iMIS) 
  • iMIS panel fields as custom demographics
  • Group and committee memberships 

Plus, you’ll bring over key engagement data from Higher Logic into iMIS, ensuring a single record of truth for your individual members, including: 

  • Informz email engagement (including message sends, clicks, opens and unsubscribes) 
  • Community forum activities 

With all your data in one singular member record, you will be able to uncover new insights so you can confidently delight your members with even more personalized outreach and tailored web experiences. 

Coming soon: New Touchpoint Dashboards. Higher Logic is actively working with ATS on new dashboards to highlight key touchpoint data on your members’ engagement with you.
