    Kindful is well suited when:
    • Important to integrate with a wide range of systems such as online fundraising tools or event registration without being tied to a single vendor
    • Small to medium sized organizations looking for an affordable but powerful donor database/CRM
    • Need a powerful but user friendly tool with customizable reports
    Kindful is not well suited when:
    • You need very advanced customization such as the ability to built entire custom screens
    • You need to track donations in multiple currencies

    Great for SaaS companies looking to demo their products. We use it on sales calls and send it afterward. It can also be used before booking demos to show to potential customers, or by customer success to create a self-guided tour of a product. The customization options are great, as is the ease of creating demos.

    Pros
    Discontinued Products
    • We particularly love the flexibility of Kindful's donation pages and donation plug-ins. They make it possible for us to accept donations on our website, without having donors have to leave the website.
    • Kindful effectively streamlines back-office functions including acknowledgements for gifts - which saves our small 2-person team vital hours each week.
    • Kindful integrates to a variety of valuable platforms, allowing us to manage all of our data in one place. Currently, we integrate with MailChimp [so all email recipients are segmented in Kindful, emails are sent from MailChimp], Fundraising Report Card, and several custom integrations through Kindful's open API [including one that tracks volunteer events and another that connects to CauseVox].
    • Kindful's basic metrics and "dashboard" give us instant access to live fundraising results that are shown against historical information - giving us the ability to see how we're doing at all times.

    Cons
    Discontinued Products
    • Detailed custom email campaigns and reports can be confusing to navigate. However, Kindful provides excellent customer support and training to make it as easy as possible.
    • The price can be a turn off for many people, but if you have an aggressive plan to increase funding, Kindful pricing is scalable based on the size of your database.

    • Some of the UX around the demo creation is still a bit janky. For example, your work does not save automatically - you need to be constantly saving it or all your work will be lost.
    • The organization of all of the demos is improving, but things still get lost.
    • Ideally it would be easier to replace certain attributes in bulk.

    I have not utilized the support for Kindful very often but the one time I have was fantastic. It was quick, courteous and thorough. Kindful consistently offers Webinars that outline the best way to utilize their product and get the most out of it. I think Kindful does a pretty solid job with support.

    Because of the easy-to-use drag-and-drop function, teams do not have to call website design-proficient professionals to assist them since Populr also supports collaboration and entire teams can work together to come up with a beautifully designed website and one that is readable.

    Previously we created clickable demos in InDesign and XD. While clickable, they were nowhere near as realistic as Walnut, they lacked analytics, couldn't be customized, and they needed a designer to keep them updated. With Walnut, we can also add or remove features in a demo depending on what the customers' needs are.

    • Kindful's customer service team has saved us a lot of time and effort by being extremely helpful. I can't speak highly enough about the customer service they offer.
    • We spend a lot of time cleaning our data base. I wish Kindful had a cleaner integration process.

    • Previously, our demos were often out of date. This led to less satisfied customers buying things that weren't quite what we had. Customers now have a better idea of what to expect.
