A great system that had nonprofits in mind!

We have had a such a positive experience with EveryAction from start to finish. The implementation process was organized and well-managed; and ongoing customer support is helpful, timely, and usually very attentive.

PROS

We really love the way that we are able to automate emails; that is, we can create emails that fire automatically based on certain user/donor behavior.

CONS

The dashboard system can be a difficult interface if you don't use it regularly and/or aren't trained by the implementation team firsthand.

Reasons for switching to Bonterra Advocacy

Our old plan was expensive; the customer team was unsupportive and often rude in dealing with us; and the tools were generally optimized for businesses and not for nonprofits.

Review!

PROS

Lists are easy to build and easily customizable. Forms also feel fairly intuitive.

CONS

Honestly, we just need more training in using it well. I wish there were more help documents - I frequently have questions that feel like they should have a help document already and it just doesn't exist. This was a big change coming from NationBuilder, where every question/answer is an easy google away.

Reason for choosing Bonterra Advocacy

Unsure - was not involved in decision at the time.

Reasons for switching to Bonterra Advocacy

It was super expensive so we already wanted to move, and then they sent out a celebratory email about how their tools helped Trump get elected. Goodbye forever!

A difficult to use constituent email system

My experience has been negative, it is expensive and cumbersome to use.

PROS

The two best aspects are the extensive features and functionality, especially for having multiple versions of the same email.

CONS

I do not enjoy using this product because it is extremely difficult to learn how to navigate it. It is not user friendly at all.

Reasons for switching to Bonterra Advocacy

More functionality.

Great tool for keeping a remote team organized

PROS

The bulk upload and bulk apply features are very convenient and easy to use. The interface is visually appealing and buttons/icons are clear, making it a user-friendly toll for even non-technical users. The contact matching feature works well and keeps data organized and avoids duplicate contacts.

CONS

Profiles for organizations are not very robust - no field for website and the primary contact field does not have much functionality ie. you cannot set up an email to go to the primary contacts of a select group of organizations.

Reasons for switching to Bonterra Advocacy

CiviCRM interface was not user friendly, required advance technical knowledge to use many of the features. Also, there was no ability to bulk upload grants.

A comprehensive and powerful tool

PROS

Everyaction excels at allowing users to pull from various data points within the CRM to create dynamic searches and lists of supporters and donors to engage, culitvate, and solicit. Everyaction's integrated features like online actions and targeted emails allow you to use real-time data you collect from supporters and act on them. On top of this, every action has a lot of useful and cool features like automation and easy-to-use bulk uploads that make processes easier.

CONS

Transferring our historical data from our previous CRM to every action was difficult. We are still working on creating a fully functioning sync between the two platforms.
