"Exceptional Support and Insightful Guidance from Donor Search"
5/5
What do you like best about DonorSearch?

I think the thing that I like most about Donor Search is the time with the representative. Steve Fowler always leaves the conversation with me knowing more than what I did entering it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DonorSearch?

This is not so much of a donor search problem but more of an information issue. For example, following the execution of an integrated search if there are multiple of the same records that appears multiple times and dedupping the results become a bit messy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Hillary Vickers of DonorSearch

Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re so glad to hear how helpful your conversations with Steve have been. He’s a great example of the support we aim to provide.

We also appreciate you noting the duplicate record challenge after integrated searches. Insights like yours help us continue to focus on improvement.

It’s great to hear that DonorSearch has strengthened your prospect research and boosted your own search skills. We’re grateful to support your work!

"Intuitive Setup, Powerful Donor Insights"
4.5/5
What do you like best about DonorSearch?

I appreciate how intuitive DonorSearch is, making it easy to set up and navigate through the layout without much difficulty. Its simplicity in conducting data queries stands out, which is remarkable given the complexity of the data involved. I find the DS scores and rankings extremely helpful in transforming data into actionable lists, which significantly enhance my fundraising marketing strategies by allowing me to focus efforts on key donors and prospects. The ability of DonorSearch to analyze vast amounts of data informs our fundraising strategy effectively, especially in identifying and understanding lapsed donors and assessing their capacity to give. This capacity for detailed data analysis is so valuable that it alone would make me consider purchasing the product again. I also value how the system cuts down on extensive data, guiding the creation of informed action plans. Overall, these features contribute significantly to a streamlined workflow and informed decision-making processes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"DonorSearch Review"
5/5
What do you like best about DonorSearch?

"THE best wealth screening tool"
5/5
What do you like best about DonorSearch?

DonorSearch has an intuitive, user-friendly interface that makes it easy to navigate. The results are consistently accurate and comprehensive, especially when it comes to charitable giving, real estate holdings, business affiliations, and foundation connections. I rarely find a result elsewhere for my prospect that is not included in their initial return. Although I haven’t needed customer support often, the few times I have, it’s been excellent, quick, responsive, and helpful. Overall, DonorSearch is my top choice for prospect research. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DonorSearch?

I'm sure it's a security feature, but my only complaint with the product is that it seems to log me out after what feels like not that long of a period of inactivity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Hillary Vickers of DonorSearch

Thank you for such a thoughtful review! We're thrilled to hear DonorSearch is your top choice for prospect research and that our insights and support have been so helpful. We appreciate your note about session timeouts — security is important, but we’re always looking for ways to improve the user experience!

"What I like about DonorSearch?"
4.5/5
What do you like best about DonorSearch?

Being able to overlay the DSAI information with the traditional DonorSearch scores has been very helping in identifying the best prospects. The DonorSearch team does a great job of helping their clients strategize the best ways to use the data. Having accessible and friendly people to work with has really helped us up our game in how we are using the data to identify major gift and mid-level prospects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DonorSearch?

I don't like that when refreshing a DonorSearch profile from Salesforce, it creates an entire new profile instead of updating the older one. I feel that it makes me have to re-do work that I have already one because team members who are opening profiles from Salesforce are not always looking at the version I have been working on from within DonorSearch. I feel like sometimes with DonorSearch I have to repeat work I have already done because notes or labels or fields I have added to a profile don't always transfer to a new profile. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Hillary Vickers of DonorSearch

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We’re thrilled to hear that DonorSearch AI has made a real difference for your team, and that our support has been helpful along the way. We also appreciate your feedback on Salesforce profiles and will be sure to pass it along to our team.
