About NestPoint

NestPoint

NestPoint

NestPoint's price is a flat subscription tied to active members and published on our pricing page. It does not scale with how much money you process, it does not rise on a schedule, and there is no clause in our terms letting us audit your revenue.

Where CivicRec is strong

CivicRec offers a broad municipal feature set across classes, facilities, leagues, memberships, ticketing, point of sale, and volunteer management. It may also simplify vendor management for cities already using other CivicPlus products.
