"Great modern option for managing donors, fundraising, and email marketing efforts."

What do you like best about DonorDock?

DonorDock seems to be a small but growing company, and they make you feel part of their growth and community in a really productive way. There are many opportunities for interacting with staff to learn more about the software, receive support, and provide feedback--including an idea board where users can add suggestions for new features (that don't seem to just float around in cyberspace with no one reading them!). This is unique in this space, in my experience. As a relatively new company, they are constantly improving and adding new features. Even in my time with them (under a year), we've seen capabilities added that are real game-changers.

The donor management system and online giving technology are modern and easy to use, and we've also been able to discontinue our Mailchimp subscription and use DonorDock's email marketing platform instead, saving us a lot of money. Some of the tracking/analysis is more limited, but given the size of our organization, this isn't a major issue for us (and they are looking into offering more here in the future). On the design end, I find DonorDock easier to use than Mailchimp, and the finished emails look just as good--if not better. Plus, the annual cost is great for a small nonprofit with a limited budget!

What do you dislike about DonorDock?

As I mentioned, DonorDock is a small and relatively new company compared to some of the bigger and more well-known fundraising and donor management software options out there. So, there are still some limitations with the technology that a larger, more established company might be able to offer. That said, they are constantly adding more features and making tweaks to existing features. I haven't found there to be anything critical that I wish I could do within DonorDock but can't.

So glad to hear DonorDock is a good fit for you Sarah! We are building DonorDock with smaller nonprofits in mind and will continue to add new features we hear are important from our users.

"A breath of fresh air"
5/5
What do you like best about DonorDock?

DonorDock really is different from all our donor CRM tools. Not only is their interface very intuitive and doesn't need excess training, but they are consistently making great improvements (using feedback from the community), and their service level is unmatched. Ultimately, it does everything we need it to in a simple solution for a great price. I have encouraged many to make the switch. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DonorDock?

DonorDock does have limitations on customization. Everything that we need from the tool is there, but if you get very granular with your donor information points, there may be missing areas. You can add different custom options to support these needs, but it may become excessive if you do it a lot. I would also like better automated workflows, but I have accomplished what I need by using third-party-linked solutions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Rob Burke of DonorDock

Thanks for the kind words and feedback John! We're always adding new features and automations will be one you'll see in the future!

What do you like best about DonorDock?

Donor Dock support provides the speediest support to clients I have ever experienced. They care deeply about their clients (both paid and free users). Getting started is so simple, and all of my clients can tell that Donor Dock continues to improve and add new features to enhance your ability to communicate with your donor database.

What do you dislike about DonorDock?

Some of the email functions could be improved, such as how images can be added to an email and how they interact with the text. It can be discouraging to be unable to identify which links folks clicked in an email sent out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Rob Burke of DonorDock

We truly do care deeply for the nonprofits we get to help Giselle, so happy to hear you loving DonorDock! We working hard on our email features and will be rolling out new capabilities, stay tuned!

"Easy to use with all the functions my non-profit needs."
5/5
What do you like best about DonorDock?

There is a very short learning curve and the initial set-up was very easy. I was able to start managing and tracking my donors almost immediately. DonorDock is also constantly updating and making improvements to the software. Their growth mindset and positive response to feedback is great. And if you ever need help their online informational guides are very helpful and you can always submit a question to their help desk if needed and get a response quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DonorDock?

I converted over to using their email functionality, which has met our needs but could be more robust. It would be nice if it were more informative regarding how my users read and click through the emails. You can connect a system like Mailchimp but we elected to just keep everything in DonorDock for simplicity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Rob Burke of DonorDock

Love hearing you are enjoying Donordock Isaac! We'll be rolling out email analytic features in the near future, so stay tuned!

"Great solution for the small to medium Nonprofit"
5/5
What do you like best about DonorDock?

DonorDock provides a great range of functionality for small to medium nonprofits. The integrated online giving, the nudges and reminders, and the user-friendly interface make for a great solution. Throw in the price point, and it is a no-brainer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DonorDock?

The website development side has room to improve. The product itself looks great, but it is incredibly cumbersome to make any substantial changes, and there has been some turnover in the DonorDock team that have hindered responsiveness in this area. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Rob Burke of DonorDock

Online Giving and Nudges are fantastic features of DonorDock Spencer, glad they are helping your nonprofit! We're always working to improve usability as well and will take your feedback!

"Great experience after 1+ year"
5/5
What do you like best about DonorDock?

We've been using DonorDock for over a year now and are very happy both the product and the excellent support we receive. I have experience with a couple of similar products and one of the best things about DonorDock is that is continues to be actively invested in and has an active community of users. The other two products we had used had grown stale, outdated, clunkly, with not much support. The features in DonorDock are well thought out and there continues to be an evolution of new enhancements. When we have experienced a few bugs, the support and turnaround time on the fixes was top notch. For many reasons, I happily recommend DonorDock. It's not perfect (no software tool is), but it has been very good for us and combined with active evolution and excellent support, we intend to stay with DonorDock for a long time.

What do you dislike about DonorDock?

Some of the template features are "not bad", but a bit limiting compared to tools that specialize in this area. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Rob Burke of DonorDock

Love hearing DonorDock is a great fit for your nonprofit Mark! Thanks for the review!

"Simple easy to use, yet powerful program well suited to the non-profit sector"
4.5/5
What do you like best about DonorDock?

- Straightforward to set up and use.

- Comprehensive Help section, including videos

- Excellent and highly responsive Client Support

- Simple set-up for the Giving Pages with very comprehensive results accessible through easy to understand menus Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DonorDock?

- It is clearly built specifically for the US market so as a non-US based client there are some features that are not relevant to the style of donating outside the US - for example we cant offer tax incentives as is done in the US, the only currency is USD, some of the naming conventions are US specific (eg Zip Code) etc.

- having said that we were fully aware of these potential pitfalls before subscribing Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Rob Burke of DonorDock

You are right Nick in that DonorDock is built for the USA, our goal is to begin supporting other countries in the future! Glad to hear it's still a great fit for your nonprofit!
