And for those rare times when I can't figure it out myself, chat support is fabulous. I have recommended this software to several colleagues and will continue to do so.

I would highly recommend Greater Giving to any non- profit interested in experiencing a great event management tool. This is one fantastic organization.

Donor Relations Coordinator

We always use greater giving for our 5+ events a year. It's great for checking people in, and just about all the steps necessary to take when running events, before, during, and after.

Fundraising Chair

Everything we need is included in Greater Giving. I have helped with fundraising events for multiple organizations that used Greater Giving and I found it intuitive and easy to use.

Director of Special Events

We had a committee and a vetting process - it is definitely worth every penny. No platform is perfect and all will have some features that are cumbersome or not exactly the way you would want.

IT Director

Nice set of features for the cost. Online auctions have been a tremendous benefit for our organization.

Director of Donor Relations

My questions are always answered very quickly and there is always someone willing to walk me through what I'm doing. The team is wonderful over there.

Auction Consultant 

Integration of Greater Giving was very user friendly and met all our needs.

president

My biggest complaint is the software takes some time to learn. We are a volunteer organization and it can be difficult to have people learn the software in the time frame needed.

Development Manager

Each year improvements are made and functionality is added. We have received excellent customer service starting with our sales rep, to the event rep and finally the help desk.

Easy to use and it is a good value for your money.

Artist and Audience Services Manager

It made us realize that we needed another product. I know this sounds harsh but it was not a match, we needed something simpler moving forward.

Admin Assistant 

I do like that you can view multiple records by clicking next, rather than going back to the list and selecting a new one.

Development Associate

When the website gets updated and things move around or there are different ways to do them. No manual updates when that happens.

System Admin

My organization is a PTA and the data structure for managing "Households" (individual parents, children, etc) is clunky and difficult to integrate with other systems data.

Systems Engineer

It can sometime time out when your are in a conference center wifi. Logging in can be confusing for volunteers.

Advancement Admin

We use Greater Giving for our online and in person auction. Auction software is such a niche market, we had to purchase this for fundraising purposes.

We are a very small non-profit, so for us, that is a deal breaker. We would rather have a not-so-robust program and work with it than pay more for a program.

Raisely

Awful, no real customer support, just a terrible AI bot, no real features, reporting is bad, customers don't like it and have complained.

Marketing & Fundraising Manager

Of all the donation platforms I've explored and used, Raisely has the most features, the best integrations, the most customisability, the most exciting roadmap, and the best support team.

Donor and Sponsorship Coordinator

The support we have received is fantastic, and the team are incredibly well connected with their users. The free webinars with Q&A sessions etc are very useful and much appreciated.

Fundraising Events Manager

Their triggered email option is ABSOLUTELY worth the monthly fee as it has revolutionised our supporter journey. On the whole, it's simple to use and their templates are awesome.

Operations Manager

We’ve had great experiences with fast responses and useful help, without needing to wait two or three days for someone overseas to respond. Thoughtful feature set (pre-2023).

IT Coordinator

This is way better than Crowdrise or Classy. Especially for the price you are getting more and then some.

Marketing Manager

The payment processing is superb and importantly, mobile friendly. Receipting works quite well too.

After initially using the software for a fundraising campaign, we loved it so much that we now use it for all of our online fundraising and donation management.

Fundraiser

Overall Raisely was excellent, intuitive to use, met our needs, at no cost and they supported us throughout and it was instrumental in our fundraising campaign. I would highly recommend Raisely.

Digital & Sales Coordinator

Insights for the email and SMS feature were limited - could see the no. Of messages sent and failed, but not to who i.e. their number or email address.

The ability to send emails out to our fundraisers, team leaders and even donors was intuitive and offered great customisation as to who it was sent to.

Communications & Engagement Specialist

How effortlessly changes can be made and how everything is so customisable and user friendly.

Such a win as we're a non profit community radio station.

Development Director

Very happy with the product and it's obvious that the Raisely developers are still at work to integrate more and more functionalities.

Most importantly the customer service is wonderful. We often have questions and they are answered quickly and solve the problem.

Events and Challenge Fundraiser

We don't use Salesforce (which Raisely does integrate with) so could not set up the website so that it integrated with our CRM. Was difficult to import data about participants onto the website.

Emails integrated and auto emails. Worked well on different devices.

But, once we pointed it out to the team they fixed them either the day off or told us that they would be working in a week. It's not as well known by others.
