244 Bloomerang Testimonials

"InitLive's flexibility in creating volunteer shifts and curating schedules is incredible. Volunteers really appreciated the ability to self-sign up and the flexibility to fit their volunteering around their busy life, work, and family schedules. The integration between InitLive and MapTag has also been incredible. We have been able to streamline our workflow to the point where we could take on new food banks without an increase in staff resources."

"InitLive helps me communicate a 100% more efficiently and accurately. Using InitLive, if there is any type of safety situation, I know who's checked in to the event. It’s part of our security plan: using InitLive, we can pull up all the information we need on our phones. I can send broadcast messages just to specific groups or all volunteers at once."

“Incredibly intuitive interface. And, so many useful capabilities. I love the reports function — it makes me look capable to my stakeholders, and also feel like a tech whiz ;). There have been features I’ve wished for that end up launching only a couple months after I realize I have the wish. There are still some features that would make this platform better, but I only know of them because I am here so much making use of alll the incredible existing features. Above all, customer service is the best, bar none. I am extremely grateful for their patience. I imagine I am a known entity at this point for how much I make use of their expertise. But it’s hard not to when they’re so helpful.”

“Open rates on newsletters have improved with customization that we can do in Bloomerang.”

“We send out weekly email updates to our donors, create reports for mailing appeals and newsletters, create and print letters and mailing labels for tax receipts, and file donations to allow us to see the effectiveness of certain appeals. Bloomerang allowed us to at least have the online information entered automatically. We love the fact that it integrates well with our Firespring website.”

“To find out the results of a fundraising campaign, we had to sift through endless files and paperwork.”

“I’m a strong advocate for Bloomerang! It has helped us streamline our work and processes, and has been an incredible tool for us.”

“I looked into 3 database vendors. The main objective was a user-friendly, mobile platform. I wanted a company with a solid support system that was easy for me to use.”

"If I can’t figure something out, the customer service chat feature is a lifesaver. If I need something that doesn’t yet exist I know that it will soon."

“Love the way we can track people we never had the opportunity to before.”

“I researched other available donor database programs and decided on Bloomerang. It has surpassed all my expectations!”

“We’re going to continue to steward our existing donors through the education, ask and thank process. I would love to see our donor retention climb over 50% as our next goal!”

“Bloomerang allows you to create profiles for both donors and sponsors. The software allows you to have a profile with their contact information, their donation history, and their engagement status which is really helpful in maintaining donor/sponsor relations.”

“We chose Bloomerang, because it was such an intuitive system, and we also just liked the look of it. We’re a very design-focused nonprofit, and so we really liked how it looked and kind of how it was a little quirky and funny and made it fun to get into the system. Bloomerang is awesome because it’s cloud-based so I can have my boss on the system at his home, and we can just all be in there at one time pulling out information. So that’s really useful.”

“Ability to track relationship engagement; financial contributions; draft reports and trends; capture multiple forms of communication for each donor; and pricing relative to existing donors.”
