Get all the details on your donors! (A perfect wealth data tool)

Pros

  • WealthEngine has very detailed data to support its scoring for each donor. Some other similar tools don't provide this.
  • WealthEngine has a connection with Salesforce that is very helpful. It allows us to run reports on donors right in Salesforce and be able to run mass reports and save the data into each person's contact.
  • WealthEngine also has great prospecting tools. This is not something we have used in its full capacity but hope to this year!

Cons

  • WealthEngine is expensive for most nonprofits when looking at how to spend their money.
  • WealthEngine seems to have a lot of turn over. Every time I email our account manager, they seem to have changed.
  • WealthEngine can have glitches and does not work at times which is very frustrating.
  • I would also like for WealthEngine to have better mobile service or an app.

Return on Investment

  • WealthEngine was able to provide wealth information for all of our event attendees and allowed us to know which guests to target with more direct touch points at the event.
  • WealthEngine has allowed us to better asks for funds based on the donors' giving capacity, ultimately providing more money for our mission.
