## Nexis for Development Professionals Reviews
  ### 1. The Penultimate Tool

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** TD C. | Assistant Director, Prospect Development, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 05, 2025

**What do you like best about Nexis for Development Professionals?**

LNDP is the tool we use from beginning to end in our prospect research and management. Whether its contact information or potential relatives, business information, due diligence, charitable and political giving to corporation information - whether in the U.S., Canada or internationally - LNDP is our go to. If we don't have time to go anywhere else, then LNDP is it!

**What do you dislike about Nexis for Development Professionals?**

There are some issues at times with incorrect birthdates or old email addresses. It would be helpful if these items can be verified - especially phone numbers and emails that at least if they are still active.

**What problems is Nexis for Development Professionals solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We always need information quickly. Also connections - possible relatives and employment are great. As well as current or past employment or business associations. It's also very helpful to be able to dive into property ownership information. Finally, seeing all possible criminal, bankruptcy, foreclosure in a concise way is super. This comprehensive profile has been a game changer. I also appreciate the new information about different graduates' employment information and what their possible salary or ranges are (or have been). Great for prospecting lists.

  ### 2. A Very Helpful Tool

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Leslie D. | Prospect Analyst, Development &amp; Alumni Relations, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 03, 2025

**What do you like best about Nexis for Development Professionals?**

I regularly turn to the Comprehensive Person Report to obtain real estate information, birthdates (age), and family members.  I also use the Company section to discover a company's annual revenue and number of employees, as well as news stories that supply information about mergers & acquisitions, or particular news about staff members.

The Individual report occasionally provides information that I haven't found elsewhere about a person's donations.  Finally, I sometime use Nexis Dossier to confirm company information, and I've used it for years - before I had access to the rest of the Nexis products - to get company employees' email addresses.

I use this tool several times a week, and it's pretty straightforward and easy to use most of the time.

**What do you dislike about Nexis for Development Professionals?**

I find the real estate information sometimes hard to decipher. I have no idea what to make of the Automated Valuation Report. To be honest, I don't always understand the other real estate reports, especially if there's no deed or transaction history.

I also get a little frustrated when the information about possible relatives, though I doubt you can do much about that.  What you *could* possibly do is provide a way for the user to contact you when we can confirm that your information is wrong.  inaccuracies happen most often with gender, but also with the type of relationship (wife, father, etc.).   One other, similar problem:  Sometime the same person has multiple listings - same person, but more than one lexID or different biographical details.  When this occurs, I have to take the time to check the other listing(s) against the first and against the biographical info I've already gathered.  It's a little confusing at times.  Also, again, I'd like to be able to tell someone on your team that the records are linked.

**What problems is Nexis for Development Professionals solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Nexis is especially helpful in solving puzzles about real estate, but also about relatives.  This information is critical to the work I do.

  ### 3. Excellent all-in-one source of biographical information

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Laura E. | Assistant Director of Campaign Prospect Development, Higher Education, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 30, 2025

**What do you like best about Nexis for Development Professionals?**

I have been using Lexis Nexis for Development Professionals for many years, and it has become a very helpful tool in my prospect research workflow. One of the biggest perks is how much background it gives on a person—things like address history, phone numbers, court cases (when available), and negative news. That kind of info can be a game-changer when you're trying to do thorough due diligence to make sure a potential donor doesn’t pose a reputational risk for your organization.

What I also find really useful is the way it shows connections to relatives and associates. It has helped me to identify new prospects just by exploring family ties or business partners of someone we’re already engaging with. It’s not just about wealth data—it gives you a broader picture of someone’s network, which can open up more opportunities for outreach. It is definitely more of a deep-dive tool than a lightweight screening platform, but if you need solid, reliable background data, it’s worth it.

**What do you dislike about Nexis for Development Professionals?**

The downside involves the accuracy of the information. It is a good source to start off with, but it's also a good idea to cross verify elsewhere to make sure that what you have is in fact accurate data for the person you're researching.

**What problems is Nexis for Development Professionals solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Nexis for Development Professionals helps me find contact information and owned properties for us to screen. It allows me to obtain names of relatives, including spouses, and I have also used the Negative News for due diligence research.

  ### 4. The primary go-to source in our prospect research

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Non-Profit Organization Management | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 30, 2025

**What do you like best about Nexis for Development Professionals?**

I like that I can use it to verify identities of people. I love that I can look up news and a business all in one place. It's the closest thing we have to a one-stop source in our research office.

**What do you dislike about Nexis for Development Professionals?**

There is a LOT of information in Lexis Nexis and it can be overwhelming and not really know all the features. More focus from the L/N team on "did you know about this feature?" or even getting to know more about what we do in our organization's office, what we are trying to achieve in our research, checking out our products and then saying "ok, L/N can fill in those blanks." Basically having a slightly more bespoke approach  when working with customers.

**What problems is Nexis for Development Professionals solving and how is that benefiting you?**

identification of a donor, verification of an address, verification of a property ownership, business information, news, negative news

  ### 5. Need LX for work

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Monica M. | Research Associate, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 07, 2025

**What do you like best about Nexis for Development Professionals?**

Since I need to assist my colleagues in locating relatives of the deceased for planned giving, this comprehensive profile is extremely helpful as it lists potential relatives. It's not always perfect, but what is? It's much better than having nothing.

**What do you dislike about Nexis for Development Professionals?**

I prefer the way the real estate was provided about ten years ago. I feel I need to look a lot more.

**What problems is Nexis for Development Professionals solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Finding relatives. Confirm dates of birth. Confirm emails. Find other LLCs the donor may be linked with. Relatives are VERY important to me. Check if they are linked to giving vehicles, including foundations.

  ### 6. NDP is the best there is

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Fund-Raising | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 11, 2024

**What do you like best about Nexis for Development Professionals?**

NDP aggregates data from every vital area I need for my work and brings it together in a way that is easy to use. They are continually working to improve the product. If you provide feedback about current features or things that would make the product better, those ideas go straight to decision makers. You can't buy that kind of customer support. NDP is the number one tool I wouldn't want to have to do my job without a subscription. I use it daily.

**What do you dislike about Nexis for Development Professionals?**

It can be cost prohibitive for small teams and small budgets.

**What problems is Nexis for Development Professionals solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Everything is pulled together in a way that saves me a lot of time, gives me clues to follow, and helps me report better information. The growth in the area due diligence is quite impressive.

  ### 7. The best prospect research tool you will use

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Fund-Raising | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 01, 2025

**What do you like best about Nexis for Development Professionals?**

Our team adores Nexis. The information is so detailed and accurate, making cross-referencing and overall due diligence easy. We love the numerous functionalities for looking into businesses and individuals. Dossier and the marriage/divorce records tools are some of the most helpful when it comes to our day-to-day research. Our customer representatives are so knowledgeable and helpful- we really appreciate their availability for meetings and how they show us what functions we may not be utilizing as efficiently. Nexis is our top research tool that we use and is worth every penny.

**What do you dislike about Nexis for Development Professionals?**

I wish that we could search by email and also find a better way to confirm active phone numbers registered to individuals

**What problems is Nexis for Development Professionals solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Rapidly available and 8.5/10 times the information is accurate and up to date.

  ### 8. Great Tool!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jaime R. | Assistant Director of Advancement Data Management, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 30, 2025

**What do you like best about Nexis for Development Professionals?**

I love the ease of using the Comprehensive Reporting. The information is accurate and current. This tool is so helpful for me, and I highly recommend it when working with records such as an Advancement Services professional.

**What do you dislike about Nexis for Development Professionals?**

Occasionally, the information takes awhile to load.

**What problems is Nexis for Development Professionals solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It addresses our address needs and has slowed down the rate of returned mail we receive.

  ### 9. Unbeatable for accuracy and depth of data

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Higher Education | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 08, 2025

**What do you like best about Nexis for Development Professionals?**

Clear and concise layout, reliability on government documents, leaves room for interpretation by the researcher/analyst rather than oversimplifying/short-cutting the way other Development products often do. Terms and Connectors is also a brilliant search feature when used wisely.

**What do you dislike about Nexis for Development Professionals?**

Fairly difficult to track down properties held in family trusts and family LLCs. I don't think Nexis does a good enough job of providing tutorial/demo materials to help train new researchers/analysts.

**What problems is Nexis for Development Professionals solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Real estate primarily -- when properties are held jointly by couples, individually, how much debt has accrued or been paid off.

  ### 10. Best place to start!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Alyssa M. | Prospect Research Analyst, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 11, 2024

**What do you like best about Nexis for Development Professionals?**

Lexis Nexis is the first place I go when doing my research.  I love the address and employer information as well as the potential relatives. Also being able to search for someone by including a relative's name is a great feature! The company's reputation also gives me peace of mind that my findings are correct.

**What do you dislike about Nexis for Development Professionals?**

I wish the business search and news search could be narrowed down to EXACTLY what you type. It would be nice to still have it pull similar results but I would like the option to search for only results containing exactly what I'm searching for.

**What problems is Nexis for Development Professionals solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Nexis confirms addresses and potential relatives for me as well as leading me to the person's career history. It helps when I can find a professional license when trying to confirm is in a specific occupation such as real estate agent. It solves a lot of the guessing games when trying to determine what type of relationship people have with each other in the potential relatives section. The address history is also very helpful in that it shows me possible locations that may have been recently sold if listed as former.

  ### 11. Highly Recommend

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Fund-Raising | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 30, 2025

**What do you like best about Nexis for Development Professionals?**

This is a great tool. It's a one-stop shop, easy to use, and accurate. I use it throughout the day, every day.

**What do you dislike about Nexis for Development Professionals?**

It's a great tool, though I wish it could filter results by email address. Not a deal breaker by any means. Just being nit picky.

**What problems is Nexis for Development Professionals solving and how is that benefiting you?**

This tool is invaluable when it comes to finding good contact and employment information.

  ### 12. Highly recommend if you have the budget for it!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Daisy G. | Director of Advancement Services, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 20, 2024

**What do you like best about Nexis for Development Professionals?**

I use it all the time! The data is incredibly accurate and has been key in helping us identify prospects. I love the amount of features available, though this can be a double edge sword. I especially love the donation feature; since we no longer have iWave, having this in Nexis has been a lifesaver.

**What do you dislike about Nexis for Development Professionals?**

It is a little pricey. While it's worth what it costs, it makes it difficult to add users as my team grows. Also, there are so many features that sometimes it's overwhelming, especially since they aren't always easy to find. It would be helpful if NDP sent out regular webinars around features available in nexis.

**What problems is Nexis for Development Professionals solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I'm able to find donation information as well as biographical info.

  ### 13. Long-time Nexis for Development Professionals User

  ### 14. By far the most recent and robust collection of real property ownership records.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Non-Profit Organization Management | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 01, 2024

**What do you like best about Nexis for Development Professionals?**

It, by far, has the most robust collection of information on real property records of any service out there.  I use it every single day for prospect research and gift capacity rating analysis.  We have many tools and many ways to find this information, but LNDP is always the most accurate that I have found.

**What do you dislike about Nexis for Development Professionals?**

Because it is so large and so complex I often have to figure out what is and isn't in LNDP. I guess I just would like a more robust training program focusing on specific resources for everyday prospect research work.  Just a preference.  An easier way to find what is available to search is the best way I can put my request.

**What problems is Nexis for Development Professionals solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It is atttempting to gain more giving information on donors and that is wonderful.  Additionally, due diligence tools are always helpful and LNDP is making great strides in that area.

  ### 15. The most comprehensive database available

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jeremy B. | Prospect Researcher, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 02, 2024

**What do you like best about Nexis for Development Professionals?**

The search feature is powerful, and I can find so many news articles dating many years back. The real estate records help gauge wealth capacity. Birthdates, voting registrations, criminal records, possible family members, emails, phone numbers, the list goes on. Lots of good info on there.

**What do you dislike about Nexis for Development Professionals?**

I don't blame Lexis Nexis, but Asian names still hard to figure out gender sometimes, however, it's not uncommon to have an Asian individual's Anglocized name connected to their record.

**What problems is Nexis for Development Professionals solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It helps gauge wealth capacity, it can help find connected businesses, real estate records are plentiful, news searches are fruitful.

  ### 18. A powerful resource for non profit research.

**Reviewed by:** Sumit P. | Lead Business Development Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Higher Education | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 19, 2024

**What do you like best about Nexis for Development Professionals?**

Nexis for Development Professionals is a must have for any database oversight team.  It is our number 1 tool to use for researching prospects to ensure we are tracking the correct person, have the right address and to determine if they have passed away.

**What do you dislike about Nexis for Development Professionals?**

There is a need for caution when researching within Nexis.  Just because a data point is shown as current, such as an address, does not mean that it is.  Further research within the Nexis profile or other tools may be necessary to determine for certain.  Additionally, parent/child relationships sometimes get tangled when a parent buys a home for the child or the parent and child have the same name.  Looking at the data wholistically is a must.

**What problems is Nexis for Development Professionals solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Nexis helps us untangle records and find better contact information for our constituents.

  ### 21. Nexis Is A Staple For Me

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**What do you dislike about Nexis for Development Professionals?**

It is unfortunate that Nexis does not really have information about charitable giving, nor do they score profiles for giving or net worth. I also think they could do a better job of communicating the potential accuracy of data included in their search.

**What problems is Nexis for Development Professionals solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I work at a non-profit foundation and we have a need to know our donors better. Nexis gives us most of the information we could need on a donor and is often very comprehensive. Knowing our donors' assets gives us an important tool for managing our constituents.

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Higher Education | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 11, 2024

There are way too many cool features to list here!  I use it every day.

**What do you dislike about Nexis for Development Professionals?**

The only downside would be how vast it is and you feel like maybe you're under-utliziing it. And perhaps sometimes the "public records" screen can be a little confusing with property addresses vs. owner names and their addresses. But my Lexis Nexis rep is always responsive and kind with my questions and needs.

I wish I could learn more about this. I know I can always connect with customer support though. Margaret Hart has been an excellent resource.

**What problems is Nexis for Development Professionals solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We do tons of research to locate individuals. While it is not easy to do it in bulk, we can often find accurate profiles on one-on -one research.
