Users have praised the platform for its streamlined giving abilities, allowing donors to easily make gifts through various payment methods like ApplePay and Venmo. This has resulted in a higher conversion rate of gifts, enabling schools to accept donations more quickly and efficiently. The platform's user-friendly interface and sleek design have also been appreciated by users, giving their online fundraising campaigns a modern appearance.

One of the key business problems solved by GiveCampus is the ability to increase the number of donors and alumni participation through digital giving and crowdfunding campaigns. Users have reported successful outcomes from using GiveCampus for small targeted fundraising campaigns. They have been able to integrate videos into their campaigns, appealing to their constituents and encouraging them to contribute. Additionally, GiveCampus has proven to be particularly effective for annual Day of Giving events, allowing end users to track progress and leading to happy donors.

Another business problem solved by GiveCampus is the ability to provide users with comprehensive visual breakdowns of gift sources and donor information. This feature adds a personal touch to the donation process, making donors feel more connected to the cause they are supporting. By having access to detailed analytics and donor data, organizations can better understand their donor base and tailor their fundraising efforts accordingly.

Overall, GiveCampus addresses key challenges faced by organizations in their online fundraising efforts.

User-friendly Interface: Many users have praised GiveCampus for its user-friendly interface, stating that it is easy to navigate and intuitive. They appreciate how straightforward it is to set up new campaigns on the crowdfunding platform and manage fundraising efforts.

Responsive Support Team: The support team at GiveCampus has received high praise from users who describe them as highly responsive and helpful. Users value the quick response they receive when issues or questions arise, which enhances their overall experience with the platform.

Versatile Donation Options: GiveCampus offers a variety of donation options including PayPal, Venmo, and Apple Pay, which has been crucial in obtaining gifts from younger alumni donors. This versatility allows donors to choose their preferred payment method and makes the giving process more convenient for them.

Pricing Structure: Some users have expressed concern about the pricing structure of GiveCampus, particularly when they receive larger than anticipated gifts during challenges. This can result in penalty fees for the school if the maximum gift limit is exceeded unless additional funds are added to the account.

Lack of Customization: Several users have mentioned that certain areas of GiveCampus are not customizable, which can be limiting for organizations that are not colleges or universities. This restricts their ability to tailor the platform to their specific needs, such as Greek letter organizations.

Learning Curve: A number of users have found that there is a learning curve associated with using GiveCampus. While helpful videos and tools are provided, some users still had to take time to understand how to set up campaigns and encourage users effectively. As a result, there were instances where users felt unclear about what steps they needed to take.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
GiveCampus provides a substantial solution for our organization to be able to fundraise collectively from current alumni, staff, faculty, and local community members. Through GiveCampus, giving becomes an interactive and shared experience for donors who can share their stories of what inspired their philanthropic generosity and to encourage others to follow their example through renewing or increasing their giving.
Pros and Cons
  • Connect with donors outside our normal constituency
  • Create a sense of urgency for giving to campaigns
  • Make giving fun for donors
  • Provide interactive tools to record and review giving campaigns
Likelihood to Recommend
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.
Most Important Features
  • Ability to connect donors across constituencies
  • Ability to enhance giving by allowing donors to share their stories
  • Raise awareness and profiles of our giving campaigns
Return on Investment
  • Increase in donors as a result of GiveCampus
  • Increase in gifts as a result of GiveCampus
  • More visibility for giving days
Alternatives Considered
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.
