The committee's workflow: use both

  1. Search AlumniClass for your class by school and graduation year. Build a list of candidate names.
  2. Subscribe for 1–2 months if you need messaging access to reach missing classmates.
  3. Import the contact list into Reunly — use the import + AI-finder combo to fill gaps.
  4. Run the RSVP, payment, schedule, badges, memorial wall through Reunly.
  5. Cancel the AlumniClass subscription once outreach is done.
  6. Total cost: ~$50–$100 vs. dozens of hours saved on each side.

When AlumniClass alone is enough

AlumniClass alone might be enough if: your reunion is small (under 25 people), informal (backyard, BYOB), free entry, no committee, and you're just using AlumniClass to find a few missing classmates and message them directly.

For anything bigger — paid tickets, a committee, a weekend with multiple events, a memorial wall, name badges — Reunly fills the gap AlumniClass doesn't.

Reunly vs AlumniClass FAQ

What's the difference between Reunly and AlumniClass.com?

AlumniClass.com is a class directory — searchable rosters by school and graduation year, used primarily to find missing classmates and send messages. Reunly is a class reunion planner — RSVPs, payment collection, schedule, badges, committee tools. Different problems, different products.

Can I use both AlumniClass and Reunly?

Yes — that's the most common combination. Use AlumniClass to find and message missing classmates, then import the contact list into Reunly to handle RSVPs, payments, the schedule, and the actual reunion. The two tools complement each other.

Does AlumniClass collect RSVPs and payments?

AlumniClass has limited event tools and basic ticket-listing capabilities, but it's not built for the structured RSVP + payment + schedule workflow a real reunion needs. Most committees treat it as a directory and use a separate planning tool for the event side.

Which is better for finding missing classmates — Reunly or AlumniClass?

AlumniClass has a deeper class-roster directory with messaging. Reunly's AI finder works on whatever roster you start with and surfaces likely matches from public sources, plus a lost-classmates form attendees can use to fill in their personal networks. Best results: use both.

How much does AlumniClass cost?

AlumniClass has free browsing and paid tiers ($10–$50/month range) for full messaging and access. Reunly is $39 flat per reunion — not a subscription, no per-user fee. Most committees pay AlumniClass for 1–2 months during the missing-classmate hunt, then use Reunly for the full planning cycle.
