I have recommended Microsoft for Nonprofits to other Nonprofits that we work with. I have helped to implement it for a couple of them. I want to share the good things that Microsoft has to share for nonprofits like ours. I understand the struggles of paying for things and not having enough money at times to do everything I would love to be able to provide.

Microsoft
  • Providing a basic framework for nonprofit organizations who've been limping along or have capped out with their current platforms to consider switching to amplify and multiply their capabilities, reach, and impact
  • Increasing the accessibility for both citizen developers and tech teams to extend a platform, so long as there are clear parameters (business use case) and thoughtful design and architecture planning
  • Sharing some core infrastructure that accelerates the use of important tools to further the mission of nonprofit organizations

Cons
Donorbox
  • I wish addresses were shared

Microsoft
  • The system is ridiculously hard to implement, requiring too many tiers of Microsoft cloud services to be enabled.
  • The technical aspects of the product are far too complex for anyone with standard cloud-based app training to implement.
  • The non-profit "qualification" system is poorly designed.
