About Silverbear

Silverbear and Dotdigital
The only certified Microsoft Dynamics 365 partner working with member-based organizations in the UK and Ireland.

Silverbear 365 is the software of choice for more than 70 associations in the UK and Ireland, serving in excess of 4.2 million members. Built on Microsoft Dynamics 365, the Dataverse, and Azure, Silverbear securely manages over £440m of subscriptions, donations, and payments every year.

Working exclusively with membership-based organizations, Silverbear can help you maximize your relationship with your members – and help you achieve significant efficiencies, too.

Silverbear enables member-based organizations to efficiently manage many tasks, including:
  • Membership acquisition and renewal.
  • Member finance.
  • Case management.
  • Marketing automation.
  • Fundraising.
  • Events and conferences.
  • Education and CPD.
  • Payment processing.
Silverbear believes that great membership organizations have great relationships with their members – they are just closer. They follow the same principle with their partners; that way everyone pulls together to make it a success.
"What you get with Silverbear is a huge breadth of experience and a thorough understanding of how membership organisations work. Our previous experience with CRM was very poor, yet Silverbear was able to not only enthuse the team and ensure that they bought into the process, but also deliver on what they promised. We're delighted with the new system and look forward to using the time we've saved to invest in the organisation and its members."

Joint Customers
Natural History Museum
"CRM is at the top of the museum's digital strategy. Therefore we spent a long time finding the right supplier to work with us. We needed someone who understood our industry and some prebuilt configured product to do a job. However, we also needed a genuine partnership: an organisation that could jointly share the rewards and pain of our ambitious Microsoft CRM plan. Silverbear has proven to be what we needed. It has been a genuine partner in our changes which are transforming the museum"

Royal College of Nursing
"To pull off a transformation project of this size is not an easy prospect, let alone at a time when we have never been busier and staff on both sides are working remotely. Silverbear provided the guidance we needed to get the project successfully across the line to support our members in challenging times. The software is now live and initial feedback from users has been positive. Microsoft and Silverbear's technology have allowed us to take our organisation to a new level and we're proud to be able to offer this innovation to the nursing community across the United Kingdom"
