Bonterra Salsa Engage vs. DonationMatch

For smaller organizations who don't have extensive data needs (i.e. not many audiences to segment) and who don't need robust reporting, this works great.

It is a great tool for connecting businesses with products or services to donate with interested persons, via non-profit fundraisers, which can be selected based on values and mission. It is also an affordable way to solicit donations for non-profit fundraising events.

• Integration with SalesForce
• Easy-to-use interface
• Technical support

• Expands audience awareness. Directly connects me with interested persons.
• Grows email list through participation in my donated content.

• Translation from salsa engage into our CRM system
• Could use more modern email templates
• More restrictions regarding image upload. Currently, you can upload any size and insert it. The email will not send correctly but you do not receive an error message.

• Minor detail, but when you reply to messages the subject line turns blank, and I wish it would populate as re: original message subject.

Easy to use interface, far superior to classic. You did this right.

Support response has been swift and knowledgable, though not always the answer I've wanted. One huge design flaw is if I add a new Salesforce field to sync, Salsa Engage will not sync it unless it has changed since the last sync, requiring me to fake an update for an entire database or re-sync the whole enchilada. Better to recognize it's a new Salesforce field and perform the sync en masse.

EveryAction is a lot cheaper, but Salsa has more featured with targeting certain elected officials/better text messaging strategies

I've never used anything like this before. I used to do it all one non-profit at a time!

• Our event participants are always maxed out and Engage allows them an easy way to sign up and participate.
