Aplos, powered by Velora vs. Breeze

Aplos integrates with Bloomerang. It brings donations in as either individual or organization, but there is no name or account number associated with the transaction. When reconciling over 500 transactions each month, many at the same amount, it can be tedious to be sure I am reconciling the right transaction. Having the donor name associated with each transaction would be very helpful

It provides the best project management. We had used this application for a short term project and it gives complete info and management for the project.

• In my experience, report filters don't always work like they should.
• Recent updates have made entering transactions more complicated for me, instead of easier.
• No ability to delete or deactivate contacts so your list will always grow and you pay based on the number of contacts.
• In my experience, needs better interface options with other software

• Breeze has some disadvantages.
• It does not give access to the users to download the reports of the projects in PDF forms or any other format.
• The chart function of this application is not applicable to detect the curvy paths in the project completion.

In my opinion, recent improvements have made working in Aplos more cumbersome, instead of easier. The new look seems less professional than the old look to me. I think there should be more options to have a default setting when starting some tasks, like opening a register.

In my experience, Aplos support used to be awesome...very quick responses and open to suggestions. I could even see my suggestions implemented from time to time. Now I get an answer, but it's usually 'that's how it is' and no solution. 'Improvements' are not improvements to me.

Every experience I've had with Breeze's customer support has been... incredible. While being exceedingly polite, they are prompt and helpful. When addressing my concerns, they often anticipated other potential concerns and provide answers to them. Very proactive. The support staff seems to be very knowledgeable. I feel like there's no problem that could arise, that they couldn't tackle.

The layout of these projects and tasks is reliable user-friendly, exceptionally decent, clean, and coordinated.

• Easy so see what's in each fund at a glance
• Fixed asset management was not easy for me

Incentivized

• Much lower price point than alternatives makes it fiscally responsible.
• Easy to use platform makes it easy to use for volunteers.
