Bright Funds vs. YourCause CSRconnect

If any organisation is looking for a good platform for the corporate social responsibility I think bright fund is one of the good Platform for this. Organizations can trust on this as they are in to all types of work where India needs to get improved like they are helping the children's for education and giving opportunity to learn and Excel in their career also they are making it possible with the Government of States to empower the women's in the rural part they are helping a people in the health care sectors and also rescuing the children's from child labours prostitutions human trafficking etc

No kid is hungry policy is also very good to acknowledge.

Providing a clean and hygienic water in the rural part also supporting The Peoples in response to covid 19 and also

It is a great solution for a company that is looking to have a one-stop shop for employee volunteering and giving. It integrates with VolunteerMatch and Workday which is very helpful as the former feeds community volunteer opportunities to our company portal, and the latter is how payroll deductions get processed

• Date/calendar feature is rough - it automatically puts in a year out so you have to correct that and the time zone needs to automatically populate as it's a huge list that confuses most people.
• The search feature overall - not intuitive and clunky and usually inaccurate - needs to be fine tuned as well as broadened to include everything associated with a particular event or user - having said that they have made great improvements in this in the recent future so that's something to be grateful for.

We have thoroughly enjoyed our relationship with CSRconnect and YourCause/Blackbaud thus far.

The usability of CSRconnect is light years ahead of our last program and we are so thankful for this. Some of our employees get intimidated by using the computer so it is helpful when the site is user-friendly and welcoming for our employees. They are also easily able to find events in the portal.

It is available when needed. It can be very slow at times.

We do have issues with having to reload pages when we are working on reports or engagement tiles. If we dont reload something the information that we have been working to input in to the site or the reports do not save. This can be frustrating when we are on time constraints

The implementation process was a bit rocky but ended up okay. The account manager is new and still learning himself so many of our questions are answered with "let me look into that and get back to you". He absolutely gets back to us and is very nice but not always very knowledgeable which can get frustrating.

It was a little challenging doing training on line i think in person may have been a little easier. we also did training before we had access to certain things so when the time came to use that training we had questions that came up that were not apart of the initial training.

The implementation of CSRconnect takes way, way too long. Having to take down your entire CSR site for weeks, if not months, is an issue. Issues still arise from the implementation in terms of ensuring that reports and statistics on active users are pulling properly, as well as the transfer of information from one system to another. Some of this is definitely to be expected, as transferring this much information is a challenge. However, I would hope that issues would have been resolved by now

According to me Bright Funds is the most approved software for the social responsibility services to the world. Because it is one in all platform for the employees donations and volunteering. Again it costs low and transparent pricing which gives the best trustworthiness

• Provides a satisfaction that donation is getting utilized for good cause

• Working in evey sector where improvements are needed
• Working with government to achieve this in good ways

• We have been able to more accurately track global volunteerism.
• Having an online platform for employees to organize their team volunteer projects has been wonderful. They are either doing more of them (we are so busy) or they were always doing all these activities but we are just finally aware of them because there is a platform to use now.
• Reporting is not as flexible nor robust as we need it. Still doing many manual steps to get the data how we need it.
