DonorSearch Reviews & Product Details

DonorSearch by EverTrue is the prospect research and predictive intelligence platform built for fundraising teams who need more than a wealth screen. It combines 200 million+ charitable gift records with wealth data and predictive AI scoring to answer the question that matters most: not just who can give, but who's already given, and how likely they are to give again. Scores and intelligence sync directly into your existing CRM, so nothing stands between research and outreach. DonorSearch comes in three products built on that same foundation. DonorSearch Core covers wealth, giving history, and philanthropic indicators. DonorSearch Enhanced Core adds five national predictive models, sold à la carte, for teams going deeper on specific priorities. DonorSearch Ai is two custom models trained on your own organization's giving data, for the sharpest possible read on your donors. Part of the EverTrue philanthropy-first intelligence platform, DonorSearch gives fundraising teams the clarity to know who to prioritize, how to engage them, and what to do next — turning data into real donor connections. Because the causes that matter most can't afford to go without.

"Reliable donor wealth screening"

3.5/5

What do you like best about DonorSearch?

DonorSearch provides great insight into donor capacity. I'm liking the new look and features that have been added. Kathy our rep was very helpful and communicative in providing training and answers to our questions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DonorSearch?

One of the most difficult things is accuracy. With many high capacity donors taking advantage of donor advised funds, we aren't getting the whole picture when it comes to capacity.

I wish the export of the profile looked better.

I wish that donorsearch integrated with our database, EveryAction. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Thank you so much for your review! We're glad DonorSearch helps you make informed donor asks and that you’re enjoying the new features. We’ll pass your kind words to Kathy! We appreciate your feedback on accuracy, exports, and integrations. We’re always working to improve. Thanks for sharing your experience!

"Useful Data with a Refreshed User Design"

3.5/5

What do you like best about DonorSearch?

DonorSearch pulls information from a variety of sources to get a better picture of a current or prospective donor for our organization. It does so quickly which saves a lot of time from having to do the research manually. It also organizes the report into distinct sections such as charitable contributions, political contributions, real estate and equity listings, etc. so we can see the various markers of wealth and prior giving history of donor prospects.

We are also able to upload current donor data to conduct wealth screenings en-masse. DonorSearch additionally ranks the quality of the donors that allows us to strategize our efforts accordingly.

DonorSearch recently updated their user interface to a more streamlined, modern design that is far more user friendly than their traditional user interface. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DonorSearch?

The integration within Raiser's Edge NXT could be improved. While it is useful in its current state, it could be perhaps more powerful with the ability to conduct queries or reports using DonorSearch data within NXT. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Hillary Vickers of DonorSearch

Thank you so much for your valuable input on the integration with Raiser's Edge NXT. We're always looking for ways to enhance our platform and will definitely take your feedback into account for future improvements!

"DonorSearch is a great product to take fundraising to the next level"

5/5

What do you like best about DonorSearch?

I love all of the data that I can sync with my CRM, allowing me to filter down to the donors and prospects that should be focused on first. DonorSearch allows our gift officers to narrow their focus amongst the thousands of names in our database. Everyone I've ever worked with at DonorSearch has been great and friendly. The setup and installation was very easy and we were up and running in a matter of hours. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DonorSearch?

It would be great to have some more advanced functionality with the Salesforce app. But, that might be due to limitations on the Salesforce side and not necessarily on DonorSearch. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Hillary Vickers of DonorSearch

edit

Thank you so much for your positive feedback! We're glad to hear that our product has been beneficial in helping your gift officers prioritize relationships and focus their efforts. We appreciate your business and look forward to continuing to support your fundraising efforts!

"All Around Great Product"

4.5/5

What do you like best about DonorSearch?

Overall, DS is a great product. It integrates perfectly with Salesforce and automatically screens new donors, and has simple processes to batch screen others. It was easy to implement/install in Salesforce. Their website is easy to use and their customer support team checks in frequently to preemptively get ahead of any issues that may arise. I would highly recommend DS to any organization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DonorSearch?

The main drawback that I have encountered with DS is using the DS Website as a team. As the administrator, all donors are screened under my account. I then have to manually 'share' those results with every other account (users) that is in my organization. We screen donors weekly at the minimum, and often times multiple times a week. This means I would have to manually share each screening with each team member. There is no option to automatically share or to bulk share. It has to be each screen with account 1 at a time.

We ultimately just all share the 'admin' account so everyone can view all the screenings without extra manual work. A minor drawback, but drawback nonetheless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Hillary Vickers of DonorSearch

We're so happy to hear that you find DonorSearch to be a great product and that it integrates seamlessly with Salesforce. We appreciate your feedback about the manual sharing process and will certainly take it into consideration for future improvements. Thank you so much for recommending DonorSearch to other organizations!

"DonorSearch is great tool for looking up people's capacity"

4.5/5

What do you like best about DonorSearch?

What I like best is that you can look up each person individually or choose to do batches. It is instant so you can do a quick search before a pop up meeting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DonorSearch?

What I dislike is that I have seen other platforms that link donations and organization better together to help you go down a rabbit hole to find more donors, and DS doesn't do that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Hillary Vickers of DonorSearch

edit

Thank you so much for your feedback, Charlotte! It's great to hear that DonorSearch is helping you identify potential larger gifts from your current donors. We're happy to be of assistance in your fundraising efforts.
