“Combining volunteers and donors was a difficult and cumbersome process for us, we used pen and paper to gather information for our volunteers and members. With Giveffect we were able to decrease the amount of manpower used to gather information, expand our reach into the community, and create efficiency within our staff.”
"We were using a combination of several different platforms, spreadsheets and e-marketing solutions to run our 5 major fundraisers, multiple RSVP events and accomplish donor tracking and moves management. The system is so user friendly and appealing with a very modern feel. As our focus turns to a targeted campaign for individual contributions and moves management plans for specific donors, the notes and task scheduler/reminder is going to prove invaluable. We are very happy with Giveffect and the team is constantly making upgrades and improvements they they report on every two weeks so you never know what exciting things are on the horizon. I highly recommend them!"
"Thank you for being so wonderful to work with and your customer service being superb as it is!"
"For many months I had been looking for a complete software solution for our charity. Previously we were using multiple platforms and companies for our needs. It was complex and expensive. Giveffect was exactly what we were looking for. Their software takes care of our fundraising, donor management, event management, and volunteers all under a single umbrella. To boot their customer service is enthusiastic and helpful. My rep, Sharon, feels like a buddy who's got my back!"
"From the demo, to the support we received in transferring over our systems and data, to answering questions as they came up, Giveffect's staff has been amazing. As a small non-profit with limited capacity, Giveffect has transformed how we reach our most important audience: our donors. With email integration, a comprehensive CRM and helpful videos for every service available, it has been so easy to transfer over to Giveffect."
"The system is affordable, which is great for a small agency like ours. We are now paying less and getting more for our hard earned money."
"From a practical standpoint, the conversion from our old system to Giveffect was simple, but our appreciation for the ease of use has only grown over time. Using the campaign clone feature, the setup of campaigns from year to year is nominal. To me, that's smart design and I am very thankful for it."
“Giveffect is straightforward and user-friendly. It’s easy to get help when we need it. We can quickly open up the chat box and talk to someone. Everything is just really simple, especially when it comes to pulling reports.”
"As we transition from our last donor database to Giveffect, it is very refreshing to know there is help just a click away when we get stuck. Compared to our last database, the potential this system has is far superior and I'm excited to explore and learn of all the options it has to offer. The on-line chat service to help navigate through the system is outstanding. Being one of those who is not technologically savvy, the tutorials and on line help have made this transition super easy. I am so thrilled to have been a part of this transition with Giveffect right there ready to help."
"Last year we used Kintera Sphere, 550 student volunteers raised $268,000. This year we used Giveffect, 420 volunteers raised $267,000. We fundraised about the same amount with 130 fewer students! We found that Giveffect's ease of access and use increased the funds we raised per student - up about $150 more compared to what they had raised with Kintera Sphere. I truly believe that if we had the same number of student volunteers fundraising this year, we would easily exceed $300,000."
"The Giveffect concept is one of the most relevant, contemporary and visionary ideas I have come across in a long time. This is a fabulous venue to engage younger donors from diverse backgrounds. It's rare to come across an idea that is so fresh and so entirely brilliant. As Giveffect grows, it has the potential to revolutionize philanthropic giving; to address critical issues such as poverty, hunger and illiteracy; and to literally save countless lives. The Giveffect team is passionate and well-informed. I look forward to joining them on their journey to inevitable success!"
"One thing I like about Giveffect is that they're willing to work in program with us. It makes things easier."
"The metrics that giveffect provides is super helpful. they help us identify what's working well and what we need to improve."
"The most helpful part of Giveffect is that everything is under one platform. I can look at a profile and know exactly how that individual is interacting with our organization from emails, interactions, donations, volunteer hours and survey responses! It's also very helpful that the event software and forms are integrated into the platform. The donation forms are easy to use and you can set up campaigns very quickly that will help increase support for your initiatives. We have also been impressed with the reporting feature - it has allowed us to track a lot of different analytics quickly that we weren't able to do with our previous CRM."
"Giveffect allows me to bring [multiple] systems under one, instead of having several separate systems with several separate logins and costs."
