    GiveCampus
    GiveCampus provides a substantial solution for our organization to be able to fundraise collectively from current alumni, staff, faculty, and local community members. GiveCampus is well suited to one day intensive giving campaigns and to crowdfunding from multiple and diverse donor sources. GiveCampus is not a replacement for your traditional fundraising database but serves as a significant addition to your current fundraising strategies

    For our organization, Greater Giving is the best option because of the credit card swiping, the ease of the registration, and the tax receipts alone. I do wish that it would allow us to pass on the credit card fees to the purchaser, but for that reason, we don't use it for registration. For an organization NOT needing to swipe credit cards at the event for on-site purchases or using their tax receipt software, I do think that there are more affordable options.

    Greater Giving is very intuitive. It’s easy to set up in the backend and change as needed. Anytime we couldn’t figure something out on our own, our customer service representative was always available and super helpful!

    Online support was one of the worst customer service experiences I've ever had (I would give them a 1). Phone support and implementation support were very nice and knowledgeable.

    Raiser's Edge NXT is a powerful tool to keep all your fundraising data consistent and in one place. However, the addition of GiveCampus brings our campus giving day campaigns to a whole new level. GiveCampus would not replace the functionality of Raiser's Edge NXT for day to day fundraising operations, but it serves as a useful tool to assist our office in increasing our dollars and donors

    We currently use Eventbrite for our pre-event ticket and sponsorship sales as they have a much more streamlined webpage that is customizable, they allow us to pass on the fees to our purchasers, AND they do not charge an annual fee on top of the processing fees. However, they do not have the ability to let you swipe a credit card in advance - you need a membership to Bidding for Good to do so. We tried using Eventbrite and Bidding for Good for only 1 event before we switched back to Greater Giving. Neither platform allowed you to send out tax receipts and the on-site event management was subpar compared to the ease of Greater Giving.

    • The reporting improved our abilities to provide accurate information more timely to the finance department - a plus when completing the annual 990 or other information for our auditors.
    • We saw an increase in collecting on pledges when we switched from a "text-to-give" platform (from another provider) to incorporating all event elements into Greater Giving. We were able to capture over 95% of gifts within 48 hours of the event compared to less than half that amount in previous years.
    • The reports generated by Greater Giving are better received by our board of directors - easier to digest and provide meaningful analytics
