650 Blackbaud Testimonials

“Our fundraising has increased exponentially. We were able to grow from about $12 million to $20 million consistently, with the same staff and a reduction of resources.”

“Anything to do with data can often feel like such a chore, but it doesn’t now because Raiser’s Edge NXT is so intuitive. It’s a whole new style of working, and one we really like.”

"Ongoing professional development matters in the long run. With Blackbaud University, we’re able to ensure that our staff can take full advantage of all the solutions Blackbaud has to offer.”

“No one expected these kinds of results. We were very surprised and impressed at how active and effective Connection360 was for us. We will definitely keep this as a valuable tool in the tool belt and do it again!”

“Friends Asking Friends has been an essential component for runner registration and personalized fundraising and is a critical piece to our event success.”

“I especially like the transaction codes in the Project, Grant and Endowment Management module. We used to have two project numbers for every project, but we were able to cut that in half by using transaction codes. We’re now able to track values that we could never track before!”

“We welcome anyone interested in Blackbaud to call or come visit us to see the good that this system has done for the USC Foundations.”

“One of the things I like about VersAbility Resources is the diversity within the organization. We provide residential services, offer support for individuals who are employed competitively in the community, provide early childhood services, and offer a range of day support activities.. Financial Edge is able to support this diversity.”

“With Blackbaud, we’re able to track revenue and expenses, and we’re able to generate the financial reports we need to present to our board of directors, internal managers, and banking institutions. We’re able to satisfy their needs, because the reports are pretty diverse.”

“The versatility of the reports makes Financial Edge the best. We are able to do everything from grant management to student activity account reports. The charter schools can segregate the accounts by clubs, for example. But then they can also pull all those accounts together to show an overview of the financials and present it in a format that is easy to understand. It really is the best solution.”

“In just a week of using it, the predictive analytics segments perspective donors into nice, neat groupings and provides data that shows the likelihood that donors will give and their target gift ranges.”

“The ability to communicate with our fundraisers more easily through news feeds and team leader emails is just awesome. We can more adequately reach out to our constituents to help them fundraise.”

“With Luminate Online and Essentials with Go! training, all the hard work was done for us. We had a simple and secure interface to manage all of our online donation campaigns in one place. Within a few months of using the program, Trinity Health Foundation was empowered to fundraise like it never thought possible.”

"One of our greatest challenges has been the lack of cohesive data and inefficiencies encountered with the alternative processes we explored and utilized prior to implementing Blackbaud’s Target Analytics healthcare bundle. Not only does the bundle provide streamlined and actionable information to our development team daily they also benefit from the strategic format of data delivery and the conversion tag feature which far exceeds the standard wealth rating available in other products."

“The expertise from Blackbaud Success Services has been essential to our ability to hone our e-communications program. I’ve learned a lot from them. I respect the team’s insight and greatly value the partnership."
