Blackbaud Everyday Hero Pro (discontinued) vs. Qgiv

The system is pretty well-suited to the purpose we use it for, where a group of individual volunteers are raising funds for a specific event campaign. We have only had 2 other users attempt to use it to raise funds in a true peer-to-peer manner, and neither was successful. It seems it is a little difficult and time-consuming for the end user to set up and share.

Qgiv is great for small businesses or large companies that are looking for a user-friendly software to use to process donations, sale items or simply use a tool for peer-to-peer fundraising. The customer is by far the best service I have ever received and the baseline data is easy to export for donor cultivation purposes

• Detailed reporting.
• Tracking by individual.
• Individual fundraising pages we can control.

Incentivized

• Great donor/user interface, very appealing and intuitive
• Excellent reporting on transactions
• Strong customer service

Incentivized

• Setup is a bit complex.
• Fees are expensive.
• Tracking performance is limited to individuals, can't see the whole team without downloading all activity on the campaign.

• I don't have any suggestions here - they treated me like royalty - anything I didn't understand they walked me through and when I forgot it the next time and had to ask again - they acted like that was common - putting me at ease to call them back any and every time I need them.

I've not successfully accessed any support for this software, even from the invoicing team.

Customer support is amazing - they're very prompt, thoughtful in their response, and are clearly trying to help you problem solve, not just find a quick fix.

We have previously used Mobile Cause to manage this campaign, and while Mobile Cause is slow to pay and makes frequent accounting mistakes, the end user experience was better (according to the users) and it cost our organization less. However, everydayheroPro integrates with our Blackbaud software (sort of) and Mobile Cause did not.

Qgiv is by far a better product. No hidden fees and the team of developers continue to make updates that are relevant to keeping the software competitive and user-friendly. Also, customer service is a 10 out of 10 when it comes to troubleshooting different software scenarios. Finally, the ability to export and import is a basic and awesome necessity.

Incentivized

• Allows us to manage this specific campaign fairly easily.
• Reporting is difficult to interpret.
• Cost is high.

• For the price, it's a solidly positive ROI for its functionality as a credit card processor. Prior to Qgiv we used MobileCause and I think the impact of the change has been neutral.
• Even though the integration with Exceed Beyond isn't perfect, it's still an improvement over entering all the data by hand. Saving time is hard to calculate, but I would say it has probably dropped our donation entry time by at least 10%.
