Likelihood to Recommend If you work in a Development/Fundraising Department and have EVER been asked what your donor retention rate is - this is for you.
Read full review We use it for mostly community surveys and I absolutely prefer it over any other survey program out there. It is easy to create, easy to understand and easy to navigate. I love the QR code option it creates for you to share your form/ survey with others. It really is the best out there!
Read full review Pros It makes preparing fundraising reports super easy. I used to spend 6-8 hours preparing a board report and now it takes me 30 minutes... PLUS I can pull up the reports in real time during board meetings to allow board members to see the data presented in different ways or to answer questions on-the-spot. It has metrics that I've never even thought to prepare - including some that always felt too complicated to prepare. Lifetime Donor Value, Donor Retention Rates, Lapsed Donors, Acquired Donors, Reactivated Donors - all broken down by giving segments. I can customize Giving Segments. I work at a small non-profit - a major gift for us is different than a major gift for a larger organization. I can break up my data in the segments that make sense for my organization [and select colors that match our branding... you've never seen a happier Marketing Chair on your Board of Directors than when you give them a report that is properly branded for the organization. It's a small thing, but it doesn't take any extra work on my part.] Read full review Gathers information on my clients Gathers and organizes information on my prospects Enables my Team to use the form I create as a Template so they don't have to re-create it which saves them valuable time. Educates clients about the benefit of supplementation Educates my prospects Read full review Cons The only difficulty I have with Fundraising Report Card is that the integration with our CRM [Kindful] doesn't keep track of the unique ID that is exported to Fundraising Report Card [to maintain confidentiality]. So it takes a bit more work to identify which donor[s] fall into a category. For example, Fundraising Report Card will tell me that 3 major donors lapsed in the previous quarter - and I can export the Donor ID's from Fundraising Report Card, but those ID's don't mean anything in my CRM, so I can't directly see who those donors are to follow up. This is an issue with the integration specifically with Kindful. Read full review The price is too high for casual users like myself The automation took some time to figure out (that's understandable) Making the forms look uniform took a lot of time to setup Some parts like the approval emails, notification emails can be confusing Read full review Likelihood to Renew I need this software to run my business, it's built around it.

Read full review Support Rating I honestly have not used the support feature with Jotform. From what I can see when I look information up, everything I want to do something that I can't figure out myself it seems to not be a possible solution or edit that Jotform is currently capable of.

Read full review Alternatives Considered Typeform is better hands down [in my opinion]. It's not even a comparison as [I feel] JotForm doesn't work properly and [from my experience I think] their support is very problematic. I would suggest using
Typeform or using GravityForms as an alternative to JotForm. Whatever you do, [I feel you shouldn't] depend on JotForm for something that is important to your business or research project.
Read full review Return on Investment While I don't think I can entirely quantify the ROI for Fundraising Report Card, it made it possible for us to make better decisions and set better goals. Before we had this tool, we either spent way to much time analyzing data in spreadsheets [trying desperately not to make mistakes] OR more often, made strategic decisions without the facts to back us up. Our fundraising efforts are much smarter than before, and we KNOW where are areas of concern lie. We don't have to guess whether or not our strategies are working. We know. Read full review It saved me time. Within minutes I was able to create and share forms to collect demographic data. While struggling to use another software, I thought of Jotform and it was able to assist me with collating the data I had to confirm results previously obtained. I could not easily identify what new information was provided in a resubmission by a respondent. Read full review ScreenShots
