650 Blackbaud Testimonials

“The efficiencies we were able to realize with Blackbaud is what made us capable of compressing our workload so significantly but still doing it accurately and meeting the donor demand.”

“Our alumni have the opportunity to tell a story in a way that is meaningful to them and encourage the support of those around them to help transform the lives of others. Leveraging peer-to-peer fundraising gives them that ability.”

“We’ve spent a lot of time helping students do things like pay for groceries or pay the electric bill, It’s situations where the student had a part-time job helping get through the semester. The student lost that job and then maxed out a credit card paying for groceries. It’s the same on almost every campus in America.”

“We can now better connect with our supporters as they can really see what we are doing for their communities and relate to the work we do.”

“eTapestry not only enables us to keep an accurate history of our donors and supporters, but also to report on and access information at the touch of a button. We know exactly where funds are coming from and we can systematically log all communications.”

“Everyone has access to a history of each and every supporter. We have a wealth of data at our fingertips and because of this our processes are much more streamlined.”

“I’m really impressed with eTapestry. It’s become the backbone of our development strategy, and we now have accurate donor information that makes perfect sense.”

“The site enables new updates to be published in three different ways within three different parts of the site, all while updating only one form.”

“We implemented the ‘Learn at Trillium’ program using the Learn Everything subscription through Blackbaud University. The results have exceeded our expectations. I am so proud of my team—they are all now Raiser’s Edge certified and are now able to take on more complex tasks.”

“The Blackbaud University training classes are very well done; three hours goes by very quickly and you are extremely engaged. The classes provide a very hands-on, practical application, which adds a lot of value.”

“Prior to purchasing Luminate Online and participating in the Go! Program, we had 1,700 email addresses that we never used. Within a year, that number increased to 5,500 and the fact that we could increase the number by that much shows what is possible with Luminate Online.”

“There is substantial value in the ability to push information out without having to manually send reports.”

“Our partnership with Blackbaud has developed over the years as the needs of our organization grew. We’ve appreciated the value-added approach of selecting solutions like ProspectPoint as our philanthropy team became more sophisticated and we invested in planned and major giving programs.”

“We’ve been able to look closely at priority donor segments and the giving potential, giving trends, and legacy giving propensity of our constituents.”

“The only way we’ve been able to meet our goals is through the freedom our board gave us to access tools like Blackbaud Raiser’s Edge NXT. Without it, we would not have accomplished them.”
