Compare

The everyday difference — not just the price

Clubs don’t switch platforms to save a coffee a week. They switch because agendas, tickets, signatures, and the club inbox stop living in five places. Here’s what that looks like for a 15-member club.

Who keeps the club’s books?

Price is the least interesting part. Treasurers want money next to members — not a weekend of CSV exports.

tressl. Included

Charges, invoices, statements, cashbook, P&L, and budgets — in the membership

Treasurer work stays next to members, meetings, and files.

ClubRunner Extra hassle

Dues & Billing / Nova Financials for member invoices and payments

steep learning curveexport to QuickBooks

Solid for dues and statements. Full club books (expenses, budgets, accountant ledger) often still mean exporting CSV to QuickBooks — one-way, fiddly for many treasurers.

Microsoft Google Add-on cost

Xero (or Excel) as a separate set of books

Where do agendas, minutes, and RSVPs live?

One calm meeting record beats a trail of Word files and “final_v3_REALLY”.

tressl. Included

Write, send, RSVP, store — all in the meeting

No Word file to name, attach, or chase.

ClubRunner Not available

No agendas or minutes in ClubRunner — documents live elsewhere.

Do members get shared files and Office tools?

If only the committee has the docs, the rest of the club never opens the system.

tressl. Included

Club Files + Tressl Office for every member

Word processor, spreadsheets, presentations — reason to log in.

ClubRunner Not available

How do newsletters go out?

Bulletins should be a club habit, not a specialist’s weekend project.

Is there a real shared club mailbox?

ClubRunner clubs and DIY clubs land in the same place: personal inboxes and shared passwords. Over time nothing lives in one calm record.

tressl. Included

One club mailbox — as many users as you want

Admins open Shared Email; members keep their own addresses. History stays with the club.

ClubRunner Microsoft Google Extra hassle

Personal inboxes and shared-password “club” Gmail — usually more than one over time

shared passwordsscattered threadsnothing stays put

ClubRunner doesn’t give you a shared mailbox. Microsoft and Google clubs improvise the same way: a club-named Gmail, or committee people using their own accounts. Messy to secure, easy to lose, hard to keep in one place.

Public website + your own domain?

Members and the public still need somewhere trustworthy to land.

Hosting + your domain included

Policies and forms people must sign?

Signing on a phone in the membership beats a print–sign–scan circus.

The signed copy stays with the club record.

ClubRunner Microsoft Google Extra hassle

Print, sign, scan, re-upload — many hands, many piles

paper chaseversion driftlost scans

ClubRunner and DIY clubs do the same paper chase. Versions drift; pages go missing.

Events and tickets?

Ticketing should show up where members already look — the website and their calendar — not as a separate island.

tressl. Included

Log into Humanitix from Tressl; save ticket links onto Tressl events

Those events appear on the club website and in members’ calendars. Ticket fees are separate.

ClubRunner Extra hassle

Simple tickets in ClubRunner — shows when someone has booked

basic tickets only

No Humanitix login from the club system, and no ticket link flowing onto a club website event or member calendar the way Tressl does.

Microsoft Google Extra hassle

Design work (Canva) back into club files?

Posters should land in the club, not vanish into someone’s Downloads folder.

tressl. Included

Canva opens from Tressl — the images and posters you create save back into Tressl Files

Where does member data live?

Australian clubs care about privacy law and who controls the records.

tressl. Included

Sydney servers · Australian privacy law

Counts that matter to a volunteer committee — logins, drives, and where papers end up.

Indicative list rates for a 15-member club (AUD). ClubRunner: USD 27.00/mo (up-to-20 tier) + ~USD $40/yr custom domain, converted at 1.50. Member dues billing is in ClubRunner; many clubs still export to QuickBooks for a full accountant ledger — we don’t add that fee to the ClubRunner total. No club system — Microsoft path: 7× Microsoft 365 Personal (~$109.00/yr each ≈ $763.00/yr), plus Mailchimp (~$226.00/yr), Squarespace + ~$20.00 domain (~$296.00/yr), and Xero (~$420.00/yr). Google path: consumer Google usually free for volunteering; total still counts Mailchimp + site + Xero (~$942.00/yr). Paid Google Workspace (~$922.00/yr for 7) is uncommon and not assumed. Signing elsewhere is treated as print–scan. Ticket platforms charge per sale and are excluded. Vendors change prices — verify before you buy. Tressl: Sydney hosting; no GST line in-product; invoiced annually outside the app.
