Testimonials

“Both GDPro and the interactive membership portal have clearly been developed with whānau Māori at the forefront - this is seen in the way the data is captured and the tweaks that are possible which really reflect the needs of our people. Staff are quick to provide administrative/technical support where needed, the system is regularly being updated to keep up with ever changing technology & whanau needs, and there is the added feel good factor that this is a pakihi maori - made by Māori for Māori!”

“After nearly 10 years working with Arise Software, I've experienced the depth of their expertise firsthand. The Arise team brings extensive knowledge and a deep understanding of the unique challenges facing Māori organisations. They are more than just a software provider, they're a true partner in creating solutions that are impactful and lasting. Their insights have helped us streamline complex tasks like owner distributions and grant processing, reducing manual workload, enhancing data transparency, and even supporting IRD processes that follow these distributions.”

“Maori Investments Limited have used Arise Software for over 9 years for our shareholder database, succession of shares, and annual dividend distributions. The database and all aspects of administration including generating reports, statements, share information, aligns with our company requirements and are easily generated. David is always available for any queries that arise, and also keeps the software up to date with current NZ legislation requirements which gives us great comfort that we are providing the best support for our shareholders.”

“OMG the automatic payment summaries! Are beautiful haha thank you, this is going to make my life so much easier, just a few tweaks please when you can.”

“These new reports are excellent! They are helping me tidy up our database.”

“Cool, that's much better! We like it, thank you.”

“Loving all of the changes you are making to the database David!! The dashboard is great!”

“That is brilliant! I have managed to get a nice-looking screenshot of the information that auditors have requested. I have also had a little play around and I have used this to easily get a list of the new owners added for June. I can already see this is going to be an area that I use often.”

“Thank you for all you do for us and our Rautitikura (Shareholders).”

“You have produced an awesome program and have made my life a lot easier and efficient.”

“Maori Land Ownership Management and Distribution Services is a great system and it does make my work a lot easier to navigate through general and comprehensive day to day tasks. The range of knowledge is vast, the reports available are so precise and the service is at one's finger tips when requested.”

“Our Trust has our shareholder database with Arises software for the last 6 + years. Our admin staff have found the database very user friendly, David and his team are very quick to respond to any queries that we have had. Having an accessible database makes it so much quicker to respond to our shareholders when all the information is available with a few clicks of the keyboard.”

“Thank you for your continuing support and development over the years. We find the customisation of reports and ability to export for data analysis and mail merges to be our most used feature. IRFiling is now much easier and the ability to add documents and notes to shareholders is immeasurable. Shareholder Payments and reconciliation are a breeze and the feature to do trial distributions has been greatly beneficial with the report calculations.”

“Just to let you know that the auditor was pleased with our level of reporting and commented that most of their Māori Incorporation clients use GDPro... As always we appreciate your continued support.”

“I have worked with GDPRO (Database) for the last two years and have found it easy to navigate this system. I can also say that I receive prompt and reliable service whenever a problem arises in GDPRO.”

“Thank you for your email and your ongoing support of Maraeroa C Incorporation. We value the services Arise Software provides for managing Māori landowner needs and distributions.”

“What I can say is that the ability to have confidence in our shareholder recording system is hugely comforting for all of us involved in governance.”

“Thank you for making your vision bring good outcomes for Maori shareholders, whanau, hapu and Iwi.”

“We've used Arise software for years because it's customised for Maori entities, the system is secure and the support services are the best.”
