Very Good Beginner Nonprofit Fundraising Software
I have stuck with Qgiv for years because of its ease of use and easy to navigate UI. I can get in and out, make quick changes and never am hit with anything unexpected or updates that scramble by ability to navigate to where I need to go. Qgiv has very good customer service. You will speak to real people. They do a good job of not being annoying when they trying to upsell but do it in a helpful way. For example, they will educate you on text-to-give offerings and look for ways it can help add value but without pushing it on you. One cool thing I'll add and recommend that Qgiv added in the last few years has been the ability of donors to cover transaction fees which has been a nice little boost to our average gift.
CONSThis isn't the best software for a seasoned pro. Don't go in looking to organize donor and transaction data in lots of different ways. The dashboard reporting won't give you much more than how much you raised in the current month, but if that's all you need, Qgiv is a good choice.
Vendor Response

Ease of Use
I love the easiness of the ability to get someone from your customer service to help me when I’m having trouble. Your team has been so helpful!
CONSThe cost is expensive per month for our non profit as I understand things are expensive but every penny we spend is a penny we lose.
Reasons for switching to Qgiv
Easy registration for our supporters and the different team features.

I don't love or hate Qgiv...
We only use Qgiv for our walks, so we use it a couple of times a year. Using Qgiv is really frustrating at first, but once you talk to someone, it helps a lot. Time is needed at the beginning to understand the program and set-up, but once you spend that time, working with Qgiv gets easier. From a marketing standpoint, I do wish it the design of it could be stronger.
PROSQgiv has really good customer support. Whenever I have questions, I am able to chat with someone or call to figure things out. Their timing is really useful. It is super helpful when I started using Qgiv.
CONSWhen starting, it's not as easy to understand how to customize everything the P2P pages. It's not the most intuitive setup. Also, for P2P, it would be nice to have the ability to restore last years' captains/team pages.
Vendor Response
Thanks so much for leaving a review, Douachee! We're glad to hear that you've been able to chat through things with the Customer Experience team. ...aaaand we've got some good news! We're making some updates later this year to the peer-to-peer platform that we think you'll love. Stay tuned! :)

Qgiv Non-Profit Review
I love the ease of taking credit card donations. It is nice to have a system we can offer that service for, as we have a lot of elderly donors who have a hard time doing stuff like that online, so they call their donation in. I also love that Qgiv can integrate with Donor Perfect, that makes things so much easier and faster! Saves me a ton of time!!
CONSSome times when I integrate with DonorPerfect Qgiv will put a donation in as "new" because all the data is not filled in, sometimes people just give their name. SO that can be confusing and messy sometimes because I then have multiple "donors" who are actually the same person.

Complex data tracking
We've really appreciated the details we can pull from QGiv, and feel like it has given us a better handle on our fundraising efforts.
PROSWe capture a lot of unusual data at some of our events, and QGiv lets us build custom fields to track those answers.
CONSSometimes it can be hard to figure out what type of fundraiser you need to set up and where to start from. Once you get started, it's easy, though.
Reasons for switching to Qgiv
Not happy with Salsa's customer service or functionality.

Thanks so much for your review, Amanda! We're happy to hear that you find the custom fields on Qgiv forms easy to use and helpful! If you ever have feedback on what we could do better, please let us know at support@qgiv.com!

Qgiv - the best at peer-to-peer events
Qgiv provided a great experience for our fall walk.
PROSSo easy to set up and integrate with our CRM. Also, love the registration process for our participants - easy to navigate.

Great customer support
Qgiv's user interface has been improved within the last year and provides users with an easy to navigate and visually appealing way to donate to their favorite nonprofits.
PROSWhen selecting an online giving platform to use, I compared several features. Ultimately, I was looking for a product that would not incur a monthly subscription fee and Qgiv was one of few that had that option. Although that decreases the functionality compared to their paid plans, I have found that the free plan has all I need and more. Plus, their customer service team is still accessible to help those on the free plan. On several occasions I have reached out to make sure I was setting up something correctly and they walked me through it step-by-step. They also have an extensive library of Help guides. Overall, I have found that the personalized help and large number of features in the free plan outweighs the higher processing fees on the transactions themselves.
CONSWhile we would be interested in trying the peer-to-peer functionality, we have been prevented from doing so due to cost. That feature may be similar in price to other giving software, as I haven't researched that. But, for our small organization, that is one item that we've simply not been able to justify paying for. (I will say, however, that for other features--like text to give--that may be needed for a short time frame, such as a day of giving, you can opt in and out on a monthly basis, making it very easy to increase and decrease your features without committing for a full year.)
Reasons for switching to Qgiv
I was not the administrator when Network to Give was selected, but my limited interaction with it found it more cumbersome to use and less visually appealing.
Vendor Response
Thanks so much for your review, Kristin! We're happy to hear that you've found all the features you need in our free package. And if you ever do need another feature--say you're hosting an auction--our services are contract free, so you can always add and remove as you need!

QGiv is a great option for peer to peer experimenting
QGiv has improved our online giving experience with a cleaner, more sophisticated looking donate now page on our website and given us the chance to engage our fundraising volunteers with P2P pages. QGiv adds engagement and excitment to fundraising campaigns by showing progress to goal and allowing individuals to customize the message to their networks, earning us more attention and many new donors with every campaign.
PROSIntegration with our CRM (Bloomerang) Customer service and ongoing support Customizing options - we can brand our pages easily Admin - we can support our fundraisers by creating pages for them, editing, or just advising Being able to show progress toward goal with thermometer graphics is great Ease of use for non-techy users - we had tech-shy fundraisers use their P2P pages easily and successfully Love the text-to-give feature Love the ways QGiv improved the look and usability of our online donation page
CONSIt gets a little complicated when you are trying to tease out the difference between setting up a personal page, team page, and campaign page. The integration with Bloomerang is good, but not perfect - it has a few kinks when it comes to recording gifts quickly (there's a delay between gift and integration) and noting acknowledgements in the CRM automatically.
Reason for choosing Qgiv
QGiv was the obvious choice because of their partnership with our CRM. It was highly recommended by a nonprofit colleague.
Vendor Response
Thanks so much for your review, Kim! We're so excited to hear that your users, especially the tech-shy ones, find peer-to-peer easy to use. Thanks so much for being a part of the Qgiv family! We'd love to get more details about your experience with the Bloomerang integration; a member of our support team will reach out shortly. We're always looking for ways to improve!

We use Qgiv to bring in donations to our organization.
Great information about our donors that allow us to follow up, connect and take action towards. Additionally, the real time availability of what is coming in is very nice!
PROSVery intuitive, easy to use. Pretty straightforward and A LOT of functionality. Reporting is VERY ROBUST! Lots and lots of data made available via their dashboard.
CONSProbably cost. As a non-profit, would like more competitive pricing available an d more options to allow customers to purchase only what they need. Also, would really like to see a more customer friendly text giving platform.

Using Qgiv as a Non-profit
I used to spend days inputting event registrations and donations into our current software whereas now all the information can go directly into the database. It even creates a new constituent record - another time saver.
PROSThe format is very easy to use for individuals registering for an event or making a donation to our organization. Reports pull information for easy access and accountability while also tracking individual giving. For our bowling fundraising event, the site not only provides a way to register but also places the person on a team. Our other software was far more cumbersome in this regard - had to be done manually and was time consuming. Overall, a great product!
CONSThe integration of Qgiv with Blackbaud CRM was not as complicated as I had imagined. I was provided individual instruction with a Qgiv rep who clearly answered my questions. I was particularly excited to see the new feature of matching gifts through 360 MatchPro - excellent idea and the whole process is taken care of by the application. Yet, with being a non-profit during these stressful times with reduced donations coming in, there is little chance JASN will be able to implement this new feature. Wish the matching was already a part of Qgiv and not an extra expense.
Vendor Response
Thanks for the great review, Trudy! We're pleased to hear that staff and donors find Qgiv easy to use and that you're taking advantage of the integration with Blackbaud CRM! We appreciate and understand the feedback on the 360 MatchPro integration.. it's so hard to justify any extra costs right now. Thank you for being part of the Qgiv family.

Love this product
I have a very positive experience with Qgiv. I had a exploration call prior to signing up and then received an orientation after signing up. I contacted customer support with a few questions and had a real person call me almost immediately to help me out.
PROSThis software is easy to set up for non-techy people. I love the email notifications I receive when someone donates. It is easy to offer refunds if someone donates on accident. The form is very customizable for a number of different uses from general donations, to campaign donations, to events. I love the added option for donors to be able to send a digital tribute card. Reoccurring donations option is fantastic! Customer service is attentive and helps you get set up if you need it.
CONSCurrently, I wish there was a way to customize the image sizes on the form, but I haven't really run into many other issues!
Reasons for switching to Qgiv
We needed a more customizable donation form.
Vendor Response
Thank you for leaving a review, Elvera! We love that you find Qgiv easy to set up and use. We've got some exciting changes to donation forms coming in the second half of this year that we think you'll love--we'll keep you updated! Thanks so much for being part of the Qgiv family!

THE BEST!
Qgiv provided the ability to create unique and effective giving pages for any campaign at one of the lowest rates we have found within this industry.
PROSWe have found Qgiv to be easy to use, intuitive, and we cannot rave enough about the excellent customer service. We often compare other third party vendor customer service to that of Qgive and wish they would all learn to be as attentive and helpful. It is worth every penny in the time savings, which is ultimately money earned for organization.
CONSNothing to add. We use the "free" version and it does everything we need considering we have not yet upgraded.
Reason for choosing Qgiv
Ease of use and lower fees.

Easy to use and fairly flexible
Overall, it's a great service and I am considering recommending it for our auction events. I am a big fan of the quality of the product for the price (especially as a non-profit).
PROSThis product is very user friendly, both for users and for admins. It is fairly intuitive, and easy to customize to your specific needs. Pulling reports is pretty easy as well, and it breaks down where the money is coming from.
CONSThere are a few features that I wish were included, but there are problems very specific to my company. i wish that people could sign up twice using different classifications (we have 2 5K in different locations on different dates).
