Overall Satisfaction with Bloomerang

We use this software to keep a database of all our previous alumni and also as a donor database for fundraising. It allows us to store relevant info such as contact info as well as any donation history. We are able to create letters and emails through the software as well.

Pros

  • Able to customize several fields to meet our needs.
  • Keeps a large amount of information stored in the constituents account.
  • Communications such as emails and letter save to the constituents account.

Cons

  • Creating households seems a bit clunky.
  • Processing fee structure makes us unable to use their donation card processing requiring us to use a different software.
  • They seem to change the fee structure around regularly which makes it hard to budget for.
  • We're able to better track large gifts and frequent givers.
Data and settings are very customizable to fit the needs of our organization. We are able to not only keep track of donations, but also other interactions we may have with a constituent. Support is extremely helpful when issues arise.
Bloomerang seems to have a more in depth tracking for constituents than GiveSmart. The reports function seems far superior as well.

Would you buy Bloomerang CRM again?

Yes

It is great for creating constituents and connecting them to other family members. You can save a lot of different info to the donor's account which helps develop a history for the donor or alumni. We're not sure the capabilities of the donor forms and the donation card processing due to the fee structure. Would be great if the was a flat percentage.
