Tribal 365

If you’ve been using the same desktop Tribal Enrollment membership database or spreadsheet for years, you’re not alone. It’s familiar, it works (most of the time), and you know your way around it. But lately… maybe it’s starting to show its age and not meeting your needs. Need better security.  Need access to the data outside the office. Keeping the database backed up and secure feels like a full-time job.


The idea of switching to a new system — especially a cloud-based one — can sound like a big leap. At Bison Tech Solutions, we get it. That’s exactly why we created Tribal 365 – Member Management: to make that leap feel more like a smooth step forward.


A Cloud Move That Still Feels Like Yours

Tribal 365 – Member Management runs securely inside your own Microsoft tenant, which means you stay in control of your data. Nothing gets shipped off somewhere else — it stays right where you want it, protected by Microsoft’s trusted security.

And because it’s built on the same platform as tools you already use every day — Outlook, Excel, Word, SharePoint — it fits right into your workflow. No surprises. No complicated installs. Just open your browser and get to work.


Why You’ll Love It
  • Work from anywhere – Access member data from any device, whether you’re in the office, at home, or on the go.

  • Automatic updates, no headaches – Forget the days of installing patches or waiting for IT to “fix” the database. Tribal 365 updates automatically.

  • Your Data, Your Control – Your data is backed by Microsoft’s enterprise-grade protection and compliance tools. You manage access to data for only approved staff.

  • Cost-Effective and Scalable – No large up-front purchases.  Annual organization subscription makes ownership easy.  Easily give permissions to new users or allow read-only for staff in departments or leadership roles.

  • Migrate your existing Database – You can import your current data with the provided import templates or ask one of our consultants to help migrate your current data. 


Customize to Fit Your Tribe

Every Tribe has unique needs, and we believe your software should fit you, not the other way around. Tribal 365 – Member Management is built to grow with you. Want to automate notifications or connect to another database?  We can help you tailor the app to do exactly what you need — no compromises.
