BNI Connect® Mobile for PC

Unlocking the Potential of BNI Connect® Mobile

Streamlining Group Activities

With BNI Connect® Mobile, tracking group activities has never been easier. This feature helps users stay motivated and organized, ensuring they are always up-to-date with their group's progress. The app simplifies the referral process, making it straightforward to punch in referrals, thank you notes, and organize one-to-one meetings.

Guest Invitation Made Simpler

While the guest invitation module offers valuable features, there is room for improvement to make it even more user-friendly. Simplifying the guest invitation process would significantly enhance the user experience, allowing quicker and more efficient guest management.

Sharing Notes and Follow-Ups

BNI Connect® Mobile supports effective follow-ups and note-sharing among parties involved. This ensures clarity and transparency in communications, leading to better business relationships. A suggestion for future updates includes a feature allowing notes about references and follow-ups to be shared seamlessly between members.

Efficient Contact Management

Integrating a feature to add new or existing member details directly into the contact list would be a game-changer. This would save time and reduce the chance of errors, ensuring that all contact information is accurately maintained.

Improved Search Functionality

The search functionality on BNI Connect® Mobile could benefit from enhancements. Currently, resetting filters after each search can be a hassle. Improving the search options to retain filters and simplify finding chapter members would enhance the user experience significantly.

Print and Post Options

Some users have noted issues with the print function, where recent updates have caused printing blank pages. Additionally, there should be a provision for receivers to post referrals in favor of givers. This would encourage better follow-ups and business maturity within the networking process.

Anonymous Thank You Notes

Currently, Thank You for the Business (TYFTB) notes are anonymous unless the sender and recipient belong to the same chapter. Making these notes identifiable could foster stronger relationships and recognition within the network.

Prospective Visitor Management

Managing prospective visitors can be streamlined. While there are workarounds involving RSVP buttons in invitation emails, a feature allowing users to select a visit date directly within the app would be much more efficient.

Stability and Usability

BNI Connect® Mobile is generally stable and user-friendly. However, minor bugs, such as the non-functional invite feature on some Android versions, need to be addressed to ensure a seamless experience.
