Single Sign on with Netforum

Netforum is one of the original association management systems from the 1990s.  There are two flavors of Netforum, Pro and Enterprise.  Customers on Netforum Pro are on a platform that is on an upgrade path to another service within Community Brands (usually YourMembership).  Customers on Netforum Enterprise may be considering moving to a platform like Nimble AMS.  

Regardless of the version of Netforum you are on, FixedScope can help connect a seamless login experience.  Also as you upgrade Netforum or move to a similiar system, you can count on your FixedScope integrations to continue to work without additonal fees.

What can you do with single sign on for Netforum?

Single Sign On allows both members and non-members to use one set of credentials to sign into other services your organization may use.  These may include the following:

Sign into a website to see members only content

  • Connect WordPress to Netforum

  • Connect SiteFinity to Netforum

  • Connect Drupal to Netforum

  • Connect Raytha to Netforum

What do I need to get started?

Connecting Netforum to other systems is quite seamless we can often get everything we need on one phone call.

You give us:

  • EWeb Login Page
    (e.g. /eweb/login.aspx?webcode=LoginRequired)

  • XWeb Username and Password

  • XWeb Netforum WSDL
    (e.g. /xweb/netforum.asmx?WSDL)

  • 1-2 sample accounts to test with 

Of course you are connecting Netforum to another system, let us know what system that is and we’ll tell you what we need from the other side as well on the first phone call.  In some cases we may also need to construct an xweb query to pull more than just the name company and email of a user.

How long does it take?

The process of setting up a single sign on with Netforum and another system is about 1 calendar week.  Here is what you can expect:

  • Fill out our Speak to a Developer form to let us know a bit about the project

  • We’ll then send a follow up email to cover what we need on our scoping call, this call can often happen the same day or next day

  • Once you confirm the scope and costs, the project will begin and we’ll ask for the necessary items to get started

  • From here it typically takes 7 days or less to deliver a fully working single sign on

Is there any ongoing cost?

Single Sign On integrations require us to host some middleware on your behalf.  There is a cost of $200/month for the first single sign on, and $25/month for each additional one you add.  This covers the cost of hosting along with any updates that need to happen (e.g. if you upgrade Netforum, your hosting agreement with us covers the fees)
