Detailed Review
ClubDesk is online club software from reeweb ag, a Swiss stock company in Basel (UID CHE-114.676.055). The vendor's pages are available for Switzerland, Germany and Austria in German, and for Switzerland also in French and Italian.
The modules named on the site are member management, club website, invoices and bookkeeping, donations, club calendar, club documents and email. ClubDesk Free includes all modules with limited functions for up to 50 members.
Plans and prices
The pricing page lists ClubDesk Free with 50 members and 100 MB of storage, S with 100 members and 1 GB at CHF 13 per month, M with 250 members and 2 GB at CHF 20 per month, L with 500 members and 5 GB at CHF 36 per month and XL at CHF 41 per month with 8 GB. Prices carry an asterisk that refers to a footnote on the vendor page.
A custom website address and club email addresses on your own domain start with the M plan; Free and S use a clubdesk.com address.
Data and jurisdiction
The privacy notice names reeweb ag as the responsible party and appoints V-Formation GmbH in Karlsruhe as EU representative under Art. 27 GDPR, which is the arrangement for a Swiss company serving EU users. The sub-processor list names Nine Internet Solutions AG in Zurich for hosting.
The same list also names US vendors for support and email tools, namely Freshworks, ActiveCampaign and Mailchimp, so the data flow is not Swiss-only.
Where it fits
ClubDesk suits clubs that want a free start and a bundled website. It is club software rather than a CRM, so a charity that needs fundraising pipelines would look at Beacon CRM or Hivebrite instead.
Limitations to Consider
The free tier is limited to 50 members with restricted functions, and custom domains need the M plan or higher. The sub-processor list includes US vendors for support and email tooling. The vendor does not publish an English version of its pages in the material we reviewed.
Who Should Use ClubDesk
Swiss, German and Austrian clubs that want an inexpensive start with members, finances and a website in one tool.
