The primary problem that ActBlue solves for us is creating an interface for online contributions. We don’t have the size of an organization where we could design something this well. It also has very good contribution location tools as well as good data visualization, although we don’t use it as much because it doesn’t include all our contributions

user interface
data visualization
contribution search

i want to add checks to it
website is down from time to time
