"Streamlined Donation Management, Excellent Support"
What do you like best about Keela?

I like that Keela allows us to have all of our donor information, receipts, and more in one easy-to-use platform. The automation features save us a lot of time by handling tasks that used to be manually intensive, like issuing tax receipts. The Knowledge Base is super helpful, offering answers to most of my questions without much digging, and the step-by-step videos are appreciated. The support team is very responsive and provides clear instructions, making us feel well supported and valued as customers. The initial setup was very easy, especially with Oliver Snell's help in importing our data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Keela?

When I'm looking at a long list of data, like recent transactions, I'd like the option to see the whole list instead of having to click through multiple pages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Michele Davis of Keela

Thank you for the review! We really appreciate the feedback. It's great to hear that moving away from Google Sheets has saved you so much time on tax receipts and I'll make sure Oliver Snell hears your kind words about the setup/importing process.

We also appreciate you giving us your thoughts on how you want to see data in Keela. Feedback like this is exactly how we are able to keep improving the platform for all our customers.

Thanks for choosing Keela!

"Effortless CRM with Stellar Features"
What do you like best about Keela?

I love that Keela is super easy to use. It's definitely the thing I like most about it compared to basically any other CRM out there. Other CRMs can be old, outdated, or slow, making them hard to use and set up. But with Keela, having a system that is easy to set up, quick to train on, and super smooth from a customer perspective makes things so much easier. I also appreciate the efficiency it brings with integrated email and donor management, allowing me to filter contacts and create segments that automatically update. This makes sending emails to thank donors, reach out to lapsed donors, and create different campaigns super great. Additionally, the SMS integration and reporting save so much time. The initial setup was super easy, just connect Stripe, your email domain, and load your contacts. They have lots of templates ready to go, making creating forms super easy using their form builder. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Keela?

Some of the automations could be improved to be a little bit more complex with additional steps or actions. The Zapier integration is fairly limited at the moment, with potential for more triggers and outputs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Michele Davis of Keela

Thank you for your review! We are absolutely thrilled to hear that Keela is both user-friendly and saves you tons of time. We also appreciate your feedback on the automation delays and language support, we will keep this feedback in mind as we continue to enhance the platform.

"User-Friendly CRM Tailored for Nonprofits"
What do you like best about Keela?

It's built with nonprofits in mind and designed in a way that anyone can use and understand its features easily. What I like most is that you don't need to have a technical background to work in Keela. Their user-friendly interface and clear design make the experience natural and flawless. And if there's something you don't know, you can always refer to their Knowledge Base, which is extensive or the customer support, which works quickly and efficiently. As a person who used to work with different CRM tools before, I have something to compare with. To date, Keela is definitely on my list as one of the most nonprofit-friendly tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Keela?

What I dislike so far is that when building email marketing content, there are no options to preview how it will look on a mobile, tablet or any other device, except for a computer screen. This accessibility feature is highly important, especially given that most donors read such emails on their cell phones. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Michele Davis of Keela

Thank you for the review! We are thrilled you find Keela so easy to use, even without a technical background. It's great that our support team and Knowledge Base are proving so helpful.

"Comprehensive CRM for Nonprofits with Exceptional Support"
What do you like best about Keela?

I really value having a CRM built specifically for nonprofits. Before Keela, our donor and contact information was scattered across multiple places. Now, everything—contact details, donation history, volunteer hours, and email interactions—is centralized and easy to access. Pulling reports or creating segmented contact lists takes just a few clicks.

When we were researching CRM systems, we needed something that could centralize all our data, handle fundraising and email marketing, offer automation tools, and still be affordable for a small nonprofit. Keela checked all those boxes.

Getting started was straightforward, and importing our data was smooth. The platform offers excellent value for the price, and the customer service is outstanding—every time I’ve reached out, the Keela team has been prompt, friendly, and genuinely helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Keela?

At times, we’ve encountered small limitations in the flexibility of certain features. The email design tools work well but aren’t as advanced or customizable as those in dedicated email marketing platforms. Similarly, the integration options are solid but not as extensive as what larger CRM systems offer.

That said, the Keela team is very proactive about improving the platform—they consistently roll out updates, enhancements, and new features based on user feedback, which makes a big difference. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Michele Davis of Keela

Thank you for the detailed review! We're thrilled to hear that Keela has successfully centralized your data and helped streamline your fundraising strategy. It's wonderful to know that our support team has been there for you every step of the way. We also appreciate your feedback on feature flexibility and are committed to continuing our proactive updates to enhance the platform.

"Great Automations and Easy Tools, Perfect for Small Non-Profits"
What do you like best about Keela?

Keela has a lot of automations that make life as a small non-profit easy but also professional. The integrated email and form tools are easy to use and look great. Generally, it is a user-friendly interface for both employee and donor/subscriber. Customer support is quick to answer your inquiries. Keela also integrates with many other systems, and its partnership with Raisely is especially beneficial for campaign fundraising. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Keela?

As someone who works with Keela daily and uses it both for communication purposes and data administration, Keela has some work to do when it comes to working with the data. It is not easy to keep data clean, especially with email subscription and donation forms entering straight into the system with no approval system in place, you end up with a lot of duplicate records and messy data as donors/subscribers are entering their information directly. There is no easy clean up tool so you do a lot of the work manually. I believe Keela also has a way to go on querying on, importing and exporting data. I find it difficult to receive all the information you may desire. What I will say is that I do believe Keela is actively working on improving these processes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Michele Davis of Keela

Thank you for the review! We're thrilled to hear that Keela is making life easier and that our partnership with Raisely is benefiting your campaigns! We also appreciate the honest feedback on data management. Just like you pointed out, we are actively working on various improvements that touch this particular pain point you expressed.

Thank you for your trust in choosing Keela as your first official database and although we are happy to hear Keela has been a step up from spreadsheets, we're committed to making our platform even better.

"Keela is an Excellent CRM"
What do you like best about Keela?

Keela allows our small non-profit to easily maintain relationships with our volunteers, donors, and partners. We recently migrated our newsletter communications to Keela and love the feature so far. Additionally, we love creating forms through Keela to easily track important contact information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Keela?

Keela does not allow us to send email confirmations after a form is submitted which is unfortunate. There is a way to work around it through automations, but this is out of our budget at the moment. Another negative about Keela is it is difficult to move around blocks on the email content designer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Michele Davis of Keela

Thank you for the excellent review! We're thrilled to hear that Keela is an "Excellent CRM" and that it's successfully helping your small nonprofit manage relationships, streamline communications, and consolidate contacts, donations, and volunteer hours all in one place. We also appreciate your feedback regarding the form submission confirmation emails and the email designer blocks. We will certainly keep this feedback in mind for future improvements.

"Best Experience for a Small Non-Profit"
What do you like best about Keela?

We have been using Keela for over six months and have been VERY happy with the complete experience. The software is easy to use and provides our small operation with all of the tools and information that we require. I have been especially pleased with the Support crew. We have had very few issues implementing and using the software, however, when we have had a problem, the support has been quick and VERY clear on the solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Keela?

We have yet to find the limits of Keela and what it can do for us, so no real problems here. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Michele Davis of Keela

Thank you for your kind words! We're so glad Keela has been easy to use and is helping your team track donors and fundraising effectively. It's also wonderful to hear our support team has been clear and quick whenever you've needed them. We're happy to be part of your success!

"Layers and Layers of Power"
What do you like best about Keela?

Keela has enabled me to accomplish the goal of taking better care of the donors for my organization. We came to Keela from spreadsheets. The list of limitations we were experiencing was endless, as was the manual work. With Keela, we have automated so much that it gives me time in my work day to build out strategies to build the donor relationship and to develop new strategies to capture new donors. Our salesperson answered the laundry list of questions he was presented and ultimately won our business. Also, the support team is excellent. If Keela doesn't have a built in solution for the exact question I've raised, most of the time, there is a quick work around to accomplish the same goals! The Knowledge Base is an invaluable resource. I was able to fully implement Keela on my own and saved my organization the additional cost of hiring Keela to do it. It is a tool that I interact with every single day in my capacity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Keela?

Even though we have been using Keela for almost a year, I'm still learning so much about it. I wish it was possible to send the gift acknowledgement letter separate from the gift receipt. It would be nice to have those arrive a couple days apart from each other as another touch point with the donor. I also wish the household function was more functional. For example, when one person's address is updated in the household, there would be a prompt to verify if everyone in the household should have their address updated. Some of the Knowledge Base links no longer work and some of the instructions seem to be out of date to the current software, but overall, if you have a question, the Knowledge Base has the answers. It would be helpful if Keela had the capacity to work with our previous payment processor to integrate the monthly donor information over to Keela's payment processor. We also were looking for a CRM that had a donor portal. Keela does not. Maybe that is a future endeavor along with an app. No major disappointments at this point. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Michele Davis of Keela

Thank you so much for your incredibly detailed and thoughtful review. We're thrilled to hear how Keela has transformed your donor management and helped you transition from manual spreadsheets to a more strategic, automated approach to donor care!
