FundRaiser Software

Pros

Everyone we have talked to has been extremely patient and nice to work with. Not to mention it is inexpensive compared to other software programs we looked into.

Cons

We had a couple of glitches when we first started. However, they didn't hesitate to fix them immediately.

Pros

This is a wonderful product that makes day to day processes for non profits and business running fundraisers seamless and stress-free.

Cons

It can be hard to catch onto at first if you have no experience with a similar product or are not tech savvy at all.

Awesome organizing for work team!

Pros

Intuitive, easy to learn, thorough, free for basic service! Can have several users for one project!

Cons

Haven’t found any yet. Everything we’ve encountered is perfect thus far. No complaints, but we haven’t used it for that long yet.

Pros

This program took away so much of the stress that comes with fundraising. It was just so easy to use!

Cons

It was a little more difficult for not tech savvy people but it was also easy to walk them through it.

Pros

Provides small to large nonprofit organizations to automate their daily processes. Offers comprehensive solutions and features for fundraising and more.

Cons

Not always enough flexibility in the design functions, but this has been improving since we first used the product.

Pros

This platform is relatively easy to use and might be good fit for smaller to mid-size organizations that are budget conscious.

Cons

It covers the basics of tracking donor gifts but has very little of the look, feel and features that most other "newer" database platforms have incorporated. It takes considerable time and efforts to pull data and to enter data other than just basic gift entry. It does not sync with donations pages or other platforms such as Quick Books. No user-friendly interactive dashboards.

Likes Best

It gets the job done to be able to give back or donate at a fast and convenient pace.

Likes Least

There is nothing that I can think of that I do not like about this product/vendor.

Recommendations

I do not have any recommendations about this software at this time.

This product is one of the most intuitive products on the market for donor management. The team at fundraiser is constantly looking for ways they can improve and at every turn they surprise even me. I have been a customer since the late 90's and I have been through most of their versions. Each time a new version is released we can't wait to see what new tools will be at our disposal.

Likes Least

I know this sounds corny, but I can't complain. The price is very reasonable, the support team is quick to respond to any issues, and the software itself delivers as promised.

Recommendations

Make sure you look into the reports and the ability to customize the data to your needs. The biggest challenge for donor management is knowing who is supporting you and why. If you can answer these questions you are best equipped to respond in letters and and giving campaigns going forward.

Likes Best

Ease of use, navigation of site and reputation for reliability.

Modules are pretty self-explanatory and hosting prices are reasonable. Tech support is helpful when needed.

Certain reports, when exported, are a jumbled mess. I have never been able to use the envelope function after I print a letter, no matter what my IT guys do.
