Pros

“Our management team has found the system easy to navigate and find answers to most of their questions without needing another staff member to get the answer for them.”
Verified reviewer profile picture

Kristine V.

Donor Operations Manager

“It has easy to use out of the box reports, or you can use queries to deep dive to find information and data that you need.”

Jennifer G.

Database Manager

“The sales and support team have been responsive to all questions and concerns that I have voiced and have helped to get to an answer to everything.”

Cons

“What they don't explain very well is that the web-based view of the database only allows for minimal functions that database users are used to, and that the old database-view would still be necessary to do important tasks, such as running detailed reports, use Online-Express, batch gift entry, etc.”
Verified reviewer profile picture

Beverly S.

Development Coordinator

“Reporting: While the data is deep, pulling a simple, clean report for a board meeting is surprisingly difficult without exporting everything to Excel first.”
Verified reviewer profile picture

Amy J.

Donor Engagement Officer

“When you make the migration, not all the data is migrated correctly, and for a lot of things you need to be doing in the database view and others are only possible on the webview.”
