Independent research methodology

Verified user reviews

GetApp maintains a proprietary database of millions of in-depth, verified user reviews across thousands of products in hundreds of software categories. Our data scientists apply advanced modeling techniques to identify key insights about products based on those reviews.

Pros

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

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.”

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.”

Edmund S.

Board Advisor

Pros

“Overall, it’s been great because of how well it allows us to have our processes or workflows be integrated with our existing apps.”

Darren L.

CEO

“I did run into a bit of a learning curve with Salesforce because it is so complex.”

Leah L.

Program Coordinator

“Training new employees on Salesforce is time-consuming, as its one of our main systems”

Eva K.

Customer Experience Executive

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.”

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.”

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.”

Tom M.

Office Manager

Cons

“At the beginning it was hard to know how to navigate, but that came with time.”

Taylor D.

Senior Consultant
