29 Beyond Nines Testimonials

"The strength of our process was in the pre-work. We dedicated time to discovery, which was time well invested. It made the project so much easier and smoother. Beyond Nines and 10 Pound Gorilla spent a lot of time with us in advance. They were very generous and offered suggestions and ‘work-arounds’ to make our wishes possible.”

"With donors around the world, we must make certain that downtime is minimal. If downtime is required we must be able to schedule the downtime when it is best suited for our donors and staff. Unpredictable and frequent downtime of our site would be detrimental to our ability to raise money for ministry and with Beyond Nines, we remain in control."

"We are thrilled! We looked at screen shots and the very next day we got an email saying the work was completed and the Android app had gone live! The entire team has been so responsive. Beyond Nines is amazing."

"Previously, we had to deal with arbitrary, unannounced, uncontrollable upgrades, after which everything would break. We’d spend days on the phone trying to fix the problems. But with Beyond Nines, hosting support is so much more accommodating. We approve the upgrades on our schedule, and we can test them out first in a sandbox."

"Beyond Nines pushed us as an organization to rethink the ways we were doing things — from what was on our website, to how to get ready for going mobile, to our internal processes. We wanted to stay relevant, and that's exactly what we needed. Because they were Blackbaud experts without actually being Blackbaud, we felt they could be more objective — and we had the right fit."

"We are small and busy and were in the middle of a multimillion fundraising campaign while at the same time trying to redesign our website. It would have taken us six months longer without the insight and training we received from Beyond Nines. Before, no one wanted to touch the website. Now, we're leveraging its power for the whole college."

"We knew that we wanted — no, needed — mobile optimization. We couldn’t risk looking behind the times. We needed to be in front of the trends."

"There was so much NetCommunity™ functionality about which we weren't even aware! It was so helpful to have Beyond Nines walk us through best practices — and break our bad habits."

"Beyond Nines had the experience hosting the modules we wanted, and their user interface is extremely user friendly. The entire team has been flexible, responsive and professional in meeting our needs. At Beyond Nines, we have access to the hosting resources we need at a fair price for the value."

"We knew if we made an investment in training more staff on NetCommunity™, we would reap great rewards in efficiency. Now everyone feels like they have a stake in the success of our website."

"Our experience with Beyond Nines has given us the confidence to step back from the table and venture off on our own. Their expertise and responsiveness helped ELIC leverage our NetCommunity™ investment into an ongoing success."

"So much of we were doing with The Raiser's Edge® and NetCommunity™ felt like we were trying to fit a square peg in a round hole. We needed a hosting environment with speed, customizations and flexibility. Blackbaud® was telling me they couldn't do what we needed. Then we found Beyond Nines, where the answer was, 'Yeah, we can totally do that!"

"We reconnected with our donors in a really specialized and personal way-and hit way above our yearly fundraising goal. We wouldn't have been able to do it without Beyond Nines."

"We're not big enough to have someone who’s a hosting specialist. And I don't want it to be my specialty! Now we don't have to worry about things like backups and redundancies. That’s huge."

"Beyond Nines was so responsive, and listened to our requirements and needs. The work and documentation were well done, with great customer service. Other people who use NetCommunity™ need to see what’s possible!"
