Overall Satisfaction with Blackbaud eTapestry

We use it for donor services management, communication, reporting. We keep track of all donors, how much, when and for which campaign do they give. We also use it to send Mass communication emails and to contact donors individually through email. We also use it to report on our donations for Funds, Campaigns, Annual Reports and more

Pros

  • The ability to send mass emails through my level is great.
  • The ability to send individualized emails is helpful.
  • The ability to report on campaigns
  • The ability to create query's of compartmentalized findings.

Cons

  • The way mass emails are created.
  • The Creating query process can be difficult without using the Chat button.
  • Creating queries for mass mailings.
  • How you can't correct something across the board once it's loaded to the database.
  • Deleting records is difficult and not user friendly
  • email
  • reporting
  • data gathering
  • Giving Tuesday is the biggest ROI- it costs nothing extra to do an email campaign but we were able to make our financial goals.
  • At Christmas I notice even though we send a snail mail mailer, we always get a bump in giving when we send reminder emails.
  • We don't use any other software for contacting donors via email so this saves us money.
I think Constant Contact is somewhat easier to use and has more graphic capabilities

Reporting of my campaigns TY to LY. The process to get this reporting is very easy.

Being able to send emails to our entire database or to a small specialized group of our donors.

Being able to insert personalized field's into the communications really elevates the letters we write to the donors.
