What is Eleo?

Eleo is a cloud-based fundraising and donor management software for nonprofit organizations. The system includes tools for tracking donors, recording gifts, creating acknowledgement mailings, managing events, and more.

Key benefits of using Eleo

  • To ensure that donation acknowledgements are completed in a timely manner, Eleo includes a Mailing Wizard through which users can create mailings following a step-by-step process, and a Mailing Dashboard which allows users to monitor any thank-you letters to be processed.

  • Users can record volunteer availability, knowledge, and skills, track their activities and hours, create volunteering opportunities, manage communications, assign volunteers to jobs, and more.

    Pros
    The people at Eleo are kind, friendly and super helpful and supportive. Eleo has saved me thousands of dollars a year and has helped me raise even more than they have saved me.
    We love being able to make notes about donors to help us remember relationships and other crucial bits of information. But the best thing is the Customer Service.
    Customer service is great - migration from other systems is easier than expected and price is great. I would recommend this software to any nonprofit.
    Cons
    Label function is limited. And I had issues with missing information when did my first download.
    There has been only one instance where I found it difficult to organize a list.
    This program can be difficult to navigate if the user is not trained properly.

    Easy and intuitive!

    Reviewed 5 years ago

    Eleo is an easy to use system that allows me to track and monitor my donors. When I have needed help, the support I have gotten through email and phone has been quick and effective. I highly recommend eleo!

    Pros

    Eleo makes sense. I run a small non-profit, with no special fundraising staff, and the Eleo software ease-of-use makes it extremely valuable to me. I don't have the time needed to become an expert on the huge platforms, and eleo can do just about everything that I need.

    Cons

    The only issue I have had is with combining multiple gifts from a single donor for a letter. I need to have the gifts listed separately, but I don't think eleo does that.

    I Highly Recommend Eleo

    Reviewed 2 years ago

    We had another donor management program that met our needs for years, until they decided to "simplify", and then they weren't meeting our needs. Our consultant said many of their customers were using Eleo, so we decided to take the plunge. Onboarding was easy once I got my end set up, and it's been pretty intuitive to use. The library has been amazing. The only problem with it is keeping up with, say, PayPal's upgrades changing menu locations. No one can keep up with all that instantly. Again, friendly customer service saves the day!

    Pros

    What I like most about Eleo is the customer service. Face it, nothing is perfect. But when I run into any issue, I know I can call and a friendly voice will be on the line in moments to help me figure it out with a great attitude. And if they can't figure it out, they get a tech on the line right away. Also, the Home page is great for the bosses, they can get a fast, comprehensive picture of where we stand.

    Cons

    There have been a couple of issues here and there, but nothing that makes our organizaions grind to a halt. And I'm confident that my suggestions have been added to the list.

    Pros

    Customer service is excellent. They are very responsive to questions and provide answers.

    Cons

    There are not clear definition documentation regarding "all" fields when importing data. This information is very important when customizing the software to a particular organization.

    One of the Best ever!

    Reviewed 4 years ago

    We've just subscribed to Eleo for almost a year now and so far, this is the best Donor Software I've ever used. I'm very satisfied of the prompt support and friendliness of the team and the design of the software itself for an everyday user like me.

    Pros

    Prompt customer support, affordable, user friendly, simple yet effective design for reporting.

    Cons

    I wish that in the future, they will integrate address updating.

    Easy to use donor management software with all the bells and whistles non profits need

    Reviewed 4 years ago

    Customer service is great - migration from other systems is easier than expected and price is great. I would recommend this software to any nonprofit.

    Pros

    Out of the box implementation is great! Reports that most nonprofits commonly used are included - no more queries and report exports! Eleo also tracks volunteers and events. An added plus is that the software integrates with MailChimp and Constant Contact so you can track your email marketing within the system. Also integrates with DonorSearch for a great price. Online forms are easy to set up as well. I recommend this software to all my nonprofit clients who are looking for easier donor tracking.

    Cons

    For some - it can be hard to give up the report customization found in larger software (Raiser's Edge) but really do you need all that customization? Why not make life simpler? :)
