"DonorPerfect has simplified and streamlined our giving and donor cultivation process"
5/5
What do you like best about DonorPerfect?

DonorPerfect has helped our organization move away from spreadsheets to a smoother and more intuitive way of tracking our donations which has enabled us to make our giving more relational rather than transactional. From the initial setup, training process, customer service and access to a deep knowledgebase I have been extremely impressed with all that DonorPerfect has to offer. Our team is building our Development Program and the integrations DonorPerfect offers allows us to focus on building relationships while feeling conifdent that the technology is backing our efforts in every way. We are very grateful for this platform and for its team that has been very intentional in making sure we know how to use it to its full capability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DonorPerfect?

There is a lot to learn but they do provide a lot of training videos and support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Donor Perfect review from small non profit"
4/5
What do you like best about DonorPerfect?

There are two facets of Donor Perfect that I think make it stand out. First, it is easy to use and to teach others how to use. For the most part, it is very intuitive, making bringing new users on hassle-free. Second, the support team, both via chat and phone, is excellent. They are consistently available, knowledgeable, and helpful. I mostly contact support for use questions, as opposed to technical issues, and they are alwasys easy to reach and usually able to help immediately. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DonorPerfect?

We are a small non profit that does not use the majority of Donor Perfect features. Things like events, contacts, and mass mailings are just areas that we don't use - not because they are difficult to figure out, but because our organization does not do those things. It would be nice to have a streamlined version of Donor Perfect available with fewer features for a lower cost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Donor Perfect is a very user friendly platform!"
5/5
What do you like best about DonorPerfect?

The ease with which I can create all variety of useful reports; mainly I create mailing lists for thank you letters or for mass mailings such as an annual report or year end appeal letter. Additionally I can use a spreadsheet of donations made online and upload them quickly - sure beats manual creation of new records! The tutorials in Knowledgebase and On-Demand Webinars have also been helpful. Finally, our customer relations rep, Julie, is always quick to respond to any question I have!

What do you dislike about DonorPerfect?

There isn't any major issue I can think of. Occasionally the search engine doesn't pull records that is should. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good for some things, not good for others"
3/5
What do you like best about DonorPerfect?

It is very customizable, in terms of which fields you have in each donor record. Y Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DonorPerfect?

The least helpful part of DonorPerfect is the way filters are set up. You end up with hundreds of filters each accomplishing a very specific task, instead of a report interface that lets you change and save criteria as you need them. Additonally, calculated fields are quite complex and not user-friendly. Both the filters and calculated fields require SQL knowledge (or contacting their support team to create the code for you).

"Great demonstrations, powerful resources, efficient onboarding process."
4/5
What do you like best about DonorPerfect?

Excellent customer support and easy to integrate. From their sales team to their private, group, and recorded demos, DP did a great job at highlighting what sets them apart as the right CRM for our organization. Then as I began the onboarding process, I was equipped and empowered to import our data and immediately start making this product work for us! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DonorPerfect?

I am only a part time employee so I lost some of the information in the swarm of emails that come through each day. They could do a better job at separating the resource emails from the customer "take action" type emails. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is very easy to use and you can run any report that you need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DonorPerfect?

Sometimes it takes a little bit to import files, but I think it depends on what you are importing. Also, I think you should be able to soft credit tributes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Donor Perfect Review"
3.5/5
What do you like best about DonorPerfect?

What I like best about Donor Perfect is that their customer service representatives are very knowledgeable and know how to assist when I run into issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DonorPerfect?

What I dislike about Donor Perfect is that the site is not very user-friendly. I find it very hard to pull reports. Multiple steps must take place to pull a report, and I often forget these steps and have trouble pulling reports. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"DP is user friendly, but not so much for those who have experience working in similar databases."
1.5/5
What do you like best about DonorPerfect?

I like scheduling reports, the smart action feature, and the ability to send alerts to myself and others and being able to add those alerts to my calendar of choosing. The ability to send ack letter emails and/or letters is nice.

Customer Support responds quick, but does not always know the answers. Their suggestion is always to use the "Suggest and Vote" option and hope that they implement your idea at some point. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DonorPerfect?

Report creating is not as user friendly to navigate. DP uses different terms for things that what we were previously used to...for example "Notes" section for me is called "Contacts" in DP. You can use the screen designer to change certain things to reflect what you want to see, but if you are creating a template you have to refer to the original coding.

I do not like the fact that DP wants spouses to be one combined account, instead of separate. You can keep them separate, but unless you soft credit the spouse on every donation it will not capture that they gave. Our way around that will be to only choose one spouse that we label as the HOH to be the recipient of any acknowledgement letters, unless we know that they prefer to be separate on their giving. There is no easy way to run a report to determine both individuals giving levels without running them individually, combining them on a spreadsheet, and manually deleting duplicate entries in order to give them their total.

Knowledgebase and webinars are pretty outdated.Lot's of questions being asked, and no answers.

There have been constant issues with inconsistent information that shows in DP that does not correlate with what the processing gateway shows. BTW the processing gateway you have to use is SafeSave, and Donor Perfect owns them. You cannot opt out of using them unless you don't want any of your date to integrate automatically.

What do you like best about DonorPerfect?

Donor Perfect has the best customer service team I have ever encountered. They will not let you go until they have the answer/solution for you. Reaching a customer service representative is a short wait. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DonorPerfect?

Donor Perfect has so many different ways to do things within the database. It can become confusing to create filters sometimes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
