Pros:

The auction and check in portion of the software are the most valuable. Allowing early and self check in for participants at events is fantastic and helpful.

Cons:

Great Experience - Excellent Reporting Capability

As a newbie, I was paired with a wonderful consultant that walked me through setting my event up. System is very intuitive but appreciated the best practices intro. Also I have used customer service a number of times and they are easy to access, always helpful and can quickly answer my questions. Also had a great experience with our sales rep.

Pros:

I have used our CRM system for the past seven years to manage our big event ticket sales and a separate company to manage our night of event (200 people). Using Greater Giving this year centralized everything and the system was so much more dynamic. One of the things I liked most was the incredible variety of reports you could generate before the event, for the event and afterwards. It was also great for generating receipts and invoices.

Cons:

I have only one real complaint. I am used to being able to default to charging for credit card processing fees (giving the user the option to easily opt out). Greater Giving only allows you to let the user Opt In. Have seen far less participation as a result. I wish it was different but not a huge issue.

Hard to use and expensive for nonprofits

If you can afford GG and the additional assistance, it can be worth it, but for small nonprofits I would not recommend.

Pros:

Customer support was useful when we needed help and there is an option to pay to have someone on site who can do a lot of the day-of work for you **for an additional cost

Cons:

GG is difficult to use and not very intuitive. It is also expensive when compared with competitors.

Reasons for choosing Greater Giving

At the time, it was less expensive than alternatives, but better options have come along since then.

Vendor Response
