Overall Satisfaction with Bloomerang

We use Bloomerang to track donations from listeners and for communication with those donors. The donation totals in Bloomerang are balanced against the actual financial data in Quickbooks. We also use Bloomerang to hold the demographic info on a larger list of listeners beyond just our donors.
  • It allows us to see at a glance the involvement level of any given database participant.
  • It has great search capabilities to provide various pieces of specific station performance.
  • It interfaces well with other databases and donation processing companies.
  • It needs a keyboard short cut to search for a donor.
  • They need to work with more than one ACH processor.
  • It would be nice to be able to make global changes to a group of searched records.
This is our first specifically design donation management program. Previously we built our own database with Filemaker Pro.
Bloomerang helps us with rating the engagement level of our partners and communicating through email with our partners. It is programmed, however, with the typical non-profit mindset of getting one donation at a time, whereas most of our donations are on-going monthly gifts.
