Pros

“I most like the integration of fundraising, event management, volunteer management and email marketing all on the same platform.”
TC

Tiffany C.

Neon Development Associate

“Neon CRM is a multi-functional tool that helps our organization organize large amounts of data: donor contacts, event registrants, email subscribers, and more.”
DW

Danie W.

Communications Director

“We can seamlessly sync our data with other platforms such as Constant Contact and Double the Donation, as well as our NEON-based website and donation pages.”
ES

Edmund S.

Board Advisor

Pros

“The search functionality within registries is excellent, and I really appreciate being able to click on a transaction and open up multiple new tabs under the same registry.”
JE

Justice E.

Strategic Development Coordinator

“We can manage multiple different accounts under one host account, filter by different funds, and access operations.”
JE

Justice E.

Strategic Development Coordinator

“They did, however, in the 3-4 years we used Aplos, like many CRMs, I imagine, switch from live human chat support to AI chat support, and email human support.”

Founder and Director

Cons

“These deficits span from the more strategic functionalities like built-in donor intelligence tools to help you assess capacity-to-give and accounting tools, to practical everyday functionality like an inability to add matched company gifts to existing constituent pledges or limitations with reports and forms.”
JM

Jordan M.

Marketing Manager

“We also wish we could (3) use the new events module, but we are "stuck" on the "legacy events" because it makes zero fiscal sense for us to switch to NeonPay (WAY more expensive than our current processor, even if without surcharging), but I feel like we are missing out on features and that Neon is trying to strong-arm or nickle-and-dime ($199 monthly 3rd-party processor fee) us into switching to NeonPay.”
LT

Linden T.

Executive Director

“One thing that has been a little challenging is when I am filling out a form and there is a drop down, sometimes there is nothing in the drop down, so I know I need to add things to the drop down, but I have to do some searching to find out where I can add those items.”
TM

Tom M.

Office Manager

Cons

“The person who followed up indicated that my phone apparently has spam blockers and was not able to connect via phone and never tried to reach out via the way the chat indicated (email) until 6 days later. How their customer service gets high ratings is beyond me. When we originally implemented the system we had the same long lag in response time and they indicated they've had unusually high call volumes...if that were the case a year ago and still the case today I would STRONGLY suggest hiring more support persons.”
GW

Greg W.

Volunteer

“Some functions have caused manual input where we once had automation and we have to lgo in and out of the merger products to get work done.”
NL

Natalie L.

Director of Communications and Events

“APLOS prides in being the number #1 church accounting software. But it's donation (main revenue for a church) processing system is terrible. ”
