Overall Satisfaction with Financial Edge
Financial Edge is primarily utilized by our Development Office for planning and tracking of fundraising, philanthropic gifts, and event planning. As a non-profit organization, Financial Edge is useful in recording the financial success of fundraising activities, and overall donations (monetary and otherwise) provided on a monthly and annual basis. Reporting, tracking, and expenses are also managed in FE.
- Single-place to record all donations gifts to organization.
- Tracking and follow up for philanthropic gifts and endowments is user-friendly.
- Metrics in the reporting features could be enhanced to allow for cross-year/event comparisons.
- It does not allow for single-sign-on from other platforms, requiring additional keystrokes for access/exit.
- Financial Edge is great for management of diverse funding sources.
- FE is best suited for mid-sized non-profit organizations.
- GuideStar for Grant Applications (G4G)
Financial Edge is more economical than GuideStar, and more focused on the financial successes than simply the management of funds and general data.
