Pros

“It is a comprehensive and powerful CRM that supports sophisticated fundraising operations well, particularly for organizations with large donor databases and complex reporting needs.”

Emily D.

Director of Philanthropy

“The dashboard and portfolio management tools make it easy for staff to track donor activity, manage moves, and make meaningful progress in guiding donors through the cultivation journey.”

Emily D.

Director of Philanthropy

“Having donor information, interactions, giving history, and reporting all in one place creates a much more streamlined workflow across teams.”

Emily D.

Director of Philanthropy

Pros

“One important caveat: no accounting system fixes poor operational habits. If an organization refuses to capture receipts, document approvals, or follow basic workflows, switching software will not magically create accurate reports. If a nonprofit is not willing to improve its operational discipline, changing systems will usually just create more chaos, not less. But overall, for nonprofits tired of duct-taping together disconnected systems and trying to force nonprofit accounting into software that was never designed for it, MonkeyPod has been one of the most promising platforms I’ve worked with.”

Jenn V.

CFO

“That said, some areas still need maturation for more advanced finance teams, especially around highly customized reporting, allocation flexibility, and certain accounting workflows. But it’s also obvious they are actively working on those gaps.”

Jenn V.

CFO

“Cleaner fund tracking, stronger workflows, and better reporting conversations happen naturally once teams lean into the system.”

Jenn V.

CFO

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.”

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.”

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.”

Elias F.

Donor relations and Database coordinator

Cons

“The system for people to sign up for email newsletters doesn't capture the USPS address. Unless there is a setting for that and we haven't yet found it...”

Elaine H.

Executive Director

“Finding and defining our sources of income at year end so that it balances to what our accountant is looking for can be a struggle for me.”

Michele F.

Business Development Manager

“Some of the web integration features were simplistic and didn't allow customization.”
