We use BBCRM to track all gifts by Alumni, Donors and friends to the University. This includes actual cash gifts, pledges, matching gifts, planned gifts etc. We populate the system with in depth bio, personal and financial data and then use the system to sort and highlight potential prospects. The system is available to all staff at the University although access to certain data is restricted by use case. Currently we have about 500 active users across campus. The system is available 24/7 and is reachable via any internet connection through a series of secure firewalls and MFA. It is also available on IOS devices.

I use it to look up data on constituents I work with and keep others in the loop by recording my interactions with constituents. It is helpful to have one place to look for all information about a constituent.

We use Blackbaud CRM to house the data on all of our donors and constituents. It tracks information on them such as giving history, contact information, education info, events attended, and employment information. I use many data points when pulling in constituents to mass communication efforts. I also use data points to do prospect research and refer major gift prospects to major gift officers.
