Overall Satisfaction with Bloomerang

We currently use Bloomerang for the development department. We use it as a donor database, as a way to send emails, for sending letters to donors and funders, website integration, and more.

Pros

  • Bloomerang allows you to integrate giving forms onto your website in a seamless manner.
  • Bloomerang's email integration makes it really easy to segment audiences.
  • Acknowledgement letters are easy to create and edit.

Cons

  • Not being able to schedule emails in advance really makes the email function a drawback. Other software, like constant contact and MailChimp, have this function and I still have to use those services for the December emails when I am not in the office.
  • Bloomerang does not let you use the event registration function for free events.
  • The number of constituents allowed in the database without additional fees is limiting.
eTapestry does not have a user-friendly interface like Bloomerang does. Bloomerang does not have as many templates as MailChimp but since it integrates with the database, I chose Bloomerang.
Bloomerang allows you to create a donation form and integrate it onto your website but you have to enter names for each giving level. I have to go through the code and remove that but if someone who is not familiar with coding [is using this], they would not be able to make this customization.
