"Thoughtful, Relationship-Driven Data Model that has already thought about everything."

5/5

What do you like best about Ascend?

I appreciate that everything has already been considered. All of the relationships between records and objects are already there. Especially when it comes to the complexities of things like pledges that may have so many variables and nuances.

We converted from a legacy system that consisted of "flat" tables in a non-relational database, and there was a place for every data point. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ascend?

Custom functionality is sometimes difficult to build (especially if it is related to gift processes), and requires strong background knowledge of Salesforce, the Ascend managed package, and your organizations external requirements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Ascend solving and how is that benefiting you?

As a proper CRM, Ascend is helping us build true Constituent and Donor 360 views. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Thank you for the kind words! We’re so happy to hear that Ascend is helping you manage complex data and build those true Constituent and Donor 360 views. It’s great to know the transition from your legacy system has been smooth and that everything is falling into place.
