What do you dislike about Blackbaud Online Express?

I dislike how clunky and old fashioned the tool is - adding pictures tot he email body is painful, as they need to be pre-uploaded on the website and cannot be uploaded via OX. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great tool for donation forms, emails "
4/5
What do you like best about Blackbaud Online Express?

Online Express offers easy donation form creation and you are able to create multiple forms for your website. We use WordPress website so you could take the code and embed on your site. It's very easy to create forms and they are very easy to use and it's an easy process for the donor making a gift. You are able to setup pledge payments options so donors could choose when they would like pledge gifts to be taken from their account. Givealanche is a feature which allows users who make gifts to share with their networks to also make a gift. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Blackbaud Online Express?

I wish they offered recurring donation feature on their forms however they say this is coming. Their tools are a little pricey. Customer service sometimes is very slow to respond. Sometimes they say it will take days for someone to get back to you about any form issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great for Some Processes, Just Okay for Others"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Blackbaud Online Express?

Our office uses the online donations and email marketing features the most, and the donation platform feels really smooth. It's easy for donors to complete their transaction online, and it's perhaps even easier on the backend to complete the process and accept and log the donations. It's easy to understand and use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Blackbaud Online Express?

The email marketing feature is not as intuitive as one would hope. There are some clunky attributes with this feature, and we have to put employees through Blackbaud courses on this aspect in order for things to be properly designed and well functioning. I wish there were more opportunities to format different aspects than there are. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Online Express makes it easy to transfer online donations into constituent profiles in Raiser's Edge"
4/5
What do you like best about Blackbaud Online Express?

My organization receives different kinds of donations. Regular donations and donations through an event form. I like that there is one place that I can go to keep track of those. In addition, I can keep track on email communications through this portal as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Blackbaud Online Express?

My organization also uses Blackbaud Merchant Services. I wish that there was integration here and that Online Express could be a one-stop-shop for all donations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The software is not intuitive or user friendly. What should only take a few steps takes ten or more. There is no simple method to performing any task. We can't integrate our capture seamlessly with Online Express. It's just bulky and over complicated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy to Use But Not Super Customizable"
2.5/5
What do you like best about Blackbaud Online Express?

When we want a new online form, it is so simple to create and is active immediately. It integrates nicely into our website and we can change color and font easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Blackbaud Online Express?

It is not super customize-able, so if we want to get extra information from respondents/registrants/donors, it's not that easy to do. It is especially difficult with our membership program as we would like to capture information like adults, children, birthdates, ages, etc. and can't because we can't customize.
