"We try really hard to help our donors feel like they are part of what we’re doing and know that what they’re doing is making a difference. We try to be pretty consistent about reaching out to them with updates on what we’re accomplishing because of what they’ve given. If you’re just constantly saying, ‘Here’s our need and we can’t do this without you,’ people don’t want to give to that. People want to give to something that’s exciting, something that’s working, something that’s happening. I think you have to find that delicate balance between, ‘here’s the need that we have,’ but also ‘here’s the opportunity [you’ve created.]"
“I think it’s really helpful that you can get all these online donations (with DonorPerfect’s integrated online donation forms) and then download them so all that information is embedded into DonorPerfect. That helps condense time you don’t have to input them twice.”
"Thanks to DonorPerfect, we have now reached and exceeded our capital campaign goal of $3.8 million. In fact, we’re at $4.5 million!"
“We’re a small community and we do not have a large development program so what’s really helpful is the Sisters are able to do their own updates (e.g. update addresses, etc.) and help out. It’s important that it’s easy to use and we can use it in a very simple way, and you can continually learn how to use the different features they have that make it even more simplified. When I’m at another school, I’m able to open up DonorPerfect without having to take a lot of work with me. I would highly recommend DonorPerfect, and not use all of your donations just to buy donor software.”
“(DonorPerfect) is very easy. When I started with the organization 5 years ago, within 3 weeks I was figuring out how to do everything in DonorPerfect, and your support team is top-notch. They’re excellent.”
“With (DonorPerfect’s integrated online forms), we’ve been able to put our logo on (our online donation form), brand it, make it look unique and inviting, link it to our website, and easily integrate the information back into DonorPerfect.”
“I was using an Excel spreadsheet before and the problems are numerous unless you’re just a master at Excel. We researched a lot of (donor management solutions) and we like the Constant Contact (integration). DonorPerfect is a great system that will do a lot of your work for you. It will make you more efficient.”
“In my previous roles, I used Excel (and other software) and I can tell you by far DonorPerfect is the best thing I’ve used. DonorPerfect is super friendly, super easy, and support (team) is second to none the best support team I’ve ever dealt with. With DonorPerfect having that integration between all your partners and products makes it seamless for me, as an Event Manager, because everything is one spot. I don’t have to worry about importing and exporting, and all those other things I had to do when I used other software at other companies.”
“There are lot of bells and whistles that we didn’t have with Raiser’s Edge that really like, especially the mobility platform, the ability to do a direct import with Constant Contact, and the EFT (electronic funds transfer) conversion where we can take online donations and it goes right into the DonorPerfect system.”
"In the first year, we increased gifts over 80%! After two years, we more than doubled our donor database. DonorPerfect is a MUST for people who need to know their donors better and maximize their fundraising."
“We love talking to all the ministries we talk to about DonorPerfect. The main thing that I tell them is that you’re able to touch your constituents, You’re able to connect with them immediately. You’re able to see what they’re giving, to send them thank yous. You’re able to let them know it’s not just a donation, that you really appreciate it. You’re able to update (records) when they call in it makes our jobs a lot easier.”
“The system is very easy to utilize, and as a new user, it's very easy to become an expert very quickly because it’s very user friendly. You have great demos online, and the webinars are very informative. I would definitely recommend DonorPerfect. It’s the most comprehensive customer relations management system out there for nonprofits. You will be able to get that 360 view so you’re able to understand who your donors are, what their passions are, and then relate your mission to their passion, which we know will deepen engagement and raise your gifts. It will also help your organization grow its network of supporters.”
"I would definitely recommend DonorPerfect. What it cannot do, it partners with great organizations. With those affiliations, and with what DonorPerfect can do, it’s a total package for fundraising."
“I would recommend DonorPerfect definitely because it is a comprehensive kind of software that you can use not just to track your donors, but for hard data, interpretive data, and doing all the task work (associated) with being an organization that accepts donations.”
"Agile Ticketing is seamlessly integrated through DonorPerfect, so we’re able to capture all of our patrons, members and donors through Agile directly into DonorPerfect. The benefit of having this integration is it’s a time-saver. We don’t have to manually input any of our donor information. We’re able to keep track of everything seamlessly and without error."
