It has everything we need and for the price, i could not find anything better. > > **Cons**: The reports are not customize like others, it comes out in excel, but once in excel you can customize the entire report and obtain all the information you need. > > We use it every day to track our donor and donations. Great tool. ----- ### "DV’s Review of Donor stoolsm" — 4.0/5 > **Rocio** | *27 November 2018* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: This software is extremely easy to use. All the fields are self-explanatory and could be self taught if no training is given. > > **Cons**: It would be. I’ve if there were more shortcuts to the system. Certain things require a lot of manual work (I.e. have to scroll through all entries to find a donation). > > Overall, we enjoy donor tools for the purpose we use it for. We’ve tried other donation databases and find they are much too complex. We appreciate the ease of donor tools and are able to meet the needs for tracking our campaigns. ----- ### "The best CRM for a small budget..." — 5.0/5 > **Ian** | *02 October 2018* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The price. The price cannot be beaten. For a donor management CRM that covers all the bases, and provides you all the necessary functionality to run a small development team, look no further. This has everything you will need. > > **Cons**: The reports that DonorTools can run are standard, but a bit limited for typical donor CRMs. Admittedly, you get what you pay for, but you can still want some Cadillac features, though you're paying for a Ford. > > I tell every small non-profit organization to consider DonorTools. For the price, you cannot find a better product, for a small shop on a budget. ----- ### "The program has allowed us to utilize the basic needs for donor documentation." — 5.0/5 > **Deana** | *08 May 2018* | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Provides the opportunity to view a donors history donations over several years. In addition, the opportunity to classify each type of donation. > > **Cons**: We would like to be able to send out an email notification for receiving a donation. In addition, the ability to print labels directly from the program and not having to export to ACCESS. > > The ability to be able to track donors anywhere with online access. ----- ### "Useful, But Room for Improvement" — 3.0/5 > **Tess** | *02 February 2017* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easy to enter names. I like the "relationship" tab. I love I can use the "date Range" when searching for certain gifts. I like how my organization's PayPal account is automatically connected to donortools. > > **Cons**: 1-Can't automatically connect to Constant Contact 2-Pledges need to be improved, Donortools should remind the donor to make their pledge, or at the very least, let me/the administrators know. 3-There have been double entries in exports of individuals: if we enter their home address in a separate entry and also their information under a company name...Donortools doesn't automatically connect this person together. > > I have been responsible for all entries on Donortools for 3 years now. I think the database is easy to use, however I do have a few suggestions that I think would make everyone's lives easier: 1) Donortools can not automatically connect to Constant Contact: I have to manually upload each new donor's name into Constant Contact in order for our donors to receive any emails from our organization. It takes forever to export the large donor list, sift through the newest names and then re-upload them on Constant Contact\! 2) Work Addresses vs. Home Addresses: We have many individuals that we have both a work address and a home address. When doing an export, however, I can not just export "home" addresses. If I enter both the work and home address in the donor's name, and then happen to enter the work address first, I have to manually correct it once it exports on Excel so that only the home address columns show up. If I write the home address first, but also entered the "Company Name" they work for, that ends up exporting too. If I don't catch it, the Corporate Name will attach to their home address. When I have thousands of donors, this takes hours. Sometimes, I have thought to not enter in the work address altogether under the individual, and instead, enter their individual name under the Corporation-this brings up a whole other set of problems. Lets say my organization has a relationship with approx. 20 employees from the company that is entered in Donortools. At first thought, I would enter in all 20 names under the Company's entry, including their email addresses. However, when doing an export, the Excel spreadsheet becomes HUGE and doesn't separate the individual employer with their email-it is all in the same row. Let's say I find one of the employee's home address but didn't remember that I already entered their email in the corporate entry- Donortools does not automatically connect that person already entered with their separate home entry. When doing an export, I end up getting duplicate names because some people are entered under the Company as well as their personal entry...this requires much time to fix this if we have to do a big mailing, i.e. 3) Donortools does not allow me search by Donation $$ Amount: This could be helpful when determining how many donors have given $0 for a few years. 4)Pledges: Yes, I can enter in a pledge, but Donortools does not remind the donor to make their pledge once it's due. It's hard to remember all pledges. ----- Page: 1 / 14\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.za/software/84250/donor-tools?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.za/software/84250/donor-tools) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
