    Pros:
    The connectivity with the programs we use at work. It is also progressive and innovative. The programmers are open to change and constantly work to improve the service.
    Cons:
    Very little if anything. The help desk is a phone call away. The only tricky thing is learning all the new things implemented on a regular basis. It's just a matter of keeping up and using the software on a regular basis.

    Their product is affordable with a high level of support. Now that we have the platform we can use it for future campaigns and that is a win win for us. The team at Potentiality were endlessly helpful and nothing was ever too much trouble for them. Particular note of Priya and Mahdi who are superstars and truly valuable to the organisation. They ensured I had clear guidance every step of the way and I felt supported and safe in their hands!

    Pros:
    Potentiality is an easy to use software, once you have navigated around a few times it's smooth sailing. If stuck, tech support is always there to help you out. It is explained clearly and with great patience which meant a lot. I liked being able to schedule email comms in advance, and I liked being able to handle payments manually in the back end when needed. I also liked the control room for the campaign where you could be on top of how you are tracking and note how donations increase or decrease during the day.
    Cons:
    We had a few small issues with the system lagging a little during the day, due to the volume of activity on it, but once this was addressed with Potentiality they fixed it immediately.

    Charidy are overpriced for the support you get and for the capabilities of their software.

    Pros:

    Cons:
    There could be some more functionality within certain elements, the one that jumps out the most is the ability to segment emails within PTLY.

    Review for Potentiality - Lynley Sheweiry, EGGS Foundation Co-ordinator

    5

    We have used Potentiality for our Foundation site which has gone live and our Alumni site which will be launched shortly and the process has been incredible. The functionality and nature of the product means that there is an almost seamless transition from our existing site to the Potentiality platform. The technical support we received has played a massive part in the ease of shifting from one site to another.

    Pros:
    Personally, one of the best features of Potentiality for me is the ease of use as an administrator. The software is very intuitive which makes learning how to set up pages and load content whether it be text, images or links and to make changes to formatting, just so simple, easy and quick to implement. The customer service is second to none. Sue and the team are always so quick to respond to any questions or issues that may arise and give clear and direct guidance. Nothing is too much trouble for them.
    Cons:
    I can honestly say that at this point in time I cannot think of anything that I don't like about this software. It really is an excellent product with fantastic functionality and so many amazing features that assist in all aspects of administration for our Foundation.

    Excellent Experience with Potentiality

    5

    We were able to quickly understand, manage and benefit from our alumni database, directly benefitting from the system for donations particularly during the aftermath of the August 4th 2020 Beirut explosion. Over the last 18 months, knowledge of the system has grown and grown, aided by worthwhile webinars from the customer support team. We are now at the stage of investigating other opportunities within our package such as the business membership directory.

    Pros:
    Customer support is top notch - very quick response time, knowledgeable and worthwhile advice. In-depth membership details is helpful, and even more helpful is the communications log and donations details and we are looking forward to discovering the propensity to donate functionality. Event management is a very worthwhile extra feature to the package.
    Cons:
    The user interface took a little time to understand and navigate successfully, probably due to all the varied and rich functionality.

    Pros:
    Having never worked in a database system before I found Potentiality took a little time to get to know. Once I was familiar with it I quickly got to know my way around. The more I use it, the more I understand it. The best thing about working in Potentiality is the excellent customer service. The Potentiality team provides us with a dedicated team of helpers, when we need different skills, for example; designers, developers, and tutors. They are just an email away and every query is answered clearly (often with photos of 'how to'.) Leading up to , and after, our launch to go live to our community we had weekly video calls with our team. These were invaluable as we tested and checked that everything was just right. The technical team were very obliging in changing anything in the system to suit our needs and worked many hours to get everything connected to our website. Our Potentiality team are a pleasure to work with and they seem just as proud of our database as we are! I look forward to our continuing relationship as Potentiality helps us reconnect with all our Old Girls.
    Cons:
    Like all new systems there was a lot to learn and so many different parts of Potentiality to understand. Webinars and the helpful team soon let it become familiar.
