Senior Digital Fundraising Manager Fund-Raising ### "Terrific customer support" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 November 7, 2025 Overall, I've had a positive experience with Engaging Networks. The tools are user-friendly, the forms are highly functional and secure, and the customer support is outstanding. Pros Personalized, responsive, thorough and thoughtful customer support! \[sensitive content hidden\] is always quick to respond to any of my inquiries and helps walk me through and solve any issues I'm experiencing. Cons Sometimes the product can be buggy when working within the Supporter Profile module or when building emails.

The customer support is incredible. Pros Quickly build campaign pages to gather support for a cause or put pressure on person of influence. Cons The set-up can be clunky and repetitive. Hard to navigate and reporting isn't intuitive. Review source Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site.

Digital Marketing Systems Manager Environmental Services ### "Great eCRM to meet large nonprofit's online marketing needs" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 8/10 August 22, 2024 Overall, I like Engaging Networks. It mostly suits our needs as an eCRM for a large nonprofit, so that we can send emails, create robust donation forms and other form types, create marketing automations, and segment and manage our supporter data and sync properly with our offline CRM. They have a great team that are very helpful and always innovating, though I don't think they have capacity to keep up with client enhancement/improvement requests. Pros They are innovative, and always coming out with new features and trying to improve their product. They have a great staff which are helpful and put effort into listening to client feedback and support always responds quickly. They have a great page builder that allows for a lot of flexibility for building your forms. They offer marketing automations, a great email builder and reliable email sending, and hopefully coming soon there will be a much improved peer to peer tool. Setting up APIs and syncs with other systems is generally pretty fluid. They offer Accessible Intelligence, which is an AI system for sending emails to reach specific goals - we have not used this yet though. Cons There are lots of little things that add up to be annoying. For example, you cannot create conditional content within autoresponders, so you have to make separate autoresponders for each variation. Or, you cannot do refunds with Venmo. Or, you cannot segment based on giving frequency (annual vs monthly)- though this is hopefully going to be improved with a new segments feature. When they launch a new feature, it is usually thought through only 90% of the way, so there are often bugs or hangups that make the new thing not useable, or only useable with significant workarounds. Reporting is a little difficult, and can take a lot of training to understand how to pull particular reports. The top-level stats reporting isn't very good.

Senior Manager, Direct Marketing and Annual Giving Non-Profit Organization Management ### "Innovative and easy-to-learn!" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 9/10 August 9, 2024 They have an excellent support team and they listen. They are also great at creating a community of users through Supportal, their forum and their conferences (ENCC) so it's easy to learn how to best use the software. Pros It's user friendly - staff can pick it up quite quickly. It's also innovative and offers new products and services all the time, with frequent software updates. It definitely elevates our digital fundraising! Cons Because it offers so many digital solutions, there are quite a few nuances to learn and sometimes it can be difficult to customize the digital solution to exactly what you want it to be or operate. Switched from [Panorama](https://www.capterra.com/p/166550/Panorama/) Needed something innovative and easy-to-use!

Founder / CEO Marketing and Advertising ### "Engaging Networks is the simple, flexible, powerful platform your charity or non-profit needs. " 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 March 14, 2022 Pros So many modern eCRMS are mired in a compromise of ease-of-use and sophistication. How do you make a powerful fundraising and advocacy platform that is easy to use? That has been the ongoing challenge Engaging Networks has focussed on in the development of their tools. Here, there is very little compromise, and that is because of the constant investment in new platform features and optimizations that they make multiple times a year. There is no other platform that we've supported that has been able to keep pace with the needs of their clients and the dynamic nature of the NP sector. Cons The marketing automation tools are generally very good and fulfill most use cases, but other platforms have more robust logic and pathing tools. I understand that this, along with email marketing is on the roadmap for improvement soon. An improvement on testing marketing automations before production would also be useful.

The staff is helpful and reliable. I wish I did not need to talk to them as much as I do, but at least they are pleasant to work with! Cons In my opinion, there are limited features to EN software. Running reports is always a pain. It's just not very user-friendly. Review source Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site. All submitted reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. Response from Vendor December 26, 2018 Thank you for your kind words about our Client Support team.

Email Marketing Manager Fund-Raising ### "An excellent tool for advocacy and fundraising for a large animal protection nonprofit " 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 9/10 August 2, 2018 The quality customer service is the main selling point for us from Engaging Networks. They are incredibly responsive and personable – they know us all by name just as we do them. They have monthly check-ins with us to ensure the software is working and that we are utilizing all the tools offered. They offer quick and helpful support via email or phone and have really handy guides and webinars online for training and onboarding. They roll out new updates and technology every quarter, and they provide all the support you would need to be able to keep up with the pace. I can’t recommend them enough in this regard! Pros Engaging Networks is always innovating, which allows for us to keep up with trends to maximize revenue and make it easy to engage our supports in the issues they care most about. Their user-friendly features in building pages and emails is top notch. They are ahead of the curve in terms of marketing automation, which makes creating sophisticated user journeys possible. They make personalization and complex segmentation easy to achieve. Cons Not much that they don't offer, can't really complain! We use a developer to create all the code for our action alert and email templates, so I'm not sure how ready to use EN's email and page templates are out of the box.

Response from Vendor August 6, 2018 Thank you for the glowing review Gabby!

" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 3.0 3.0 Customer Service 4.0 4.0 Likelihood to Recommend 8/10 July 31, 2018 Pros The interface makes it quite easy to navigate. It is intuitive. The continuous upgrades to the functions available to the user makes is key. Cons The training associated with the software needs to be a bit more robust. There are various approaches in making this software and its functionality better suited to the needs of an organization. To identify the best way forward needs more involvement from the EN team upfront. Review source Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site.

Deputy Director, Online Strategy Political Organization ### "Great partners" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 0/10 July 28, 2018 Pros Engaging Networks tools enable HRC's team to customize our web pages, advocacy pages and email campaigns to look and behave exactly as we want. This has boosted conversion rates on all of our donation pages. Our very first year-end campaign after switching to the new platform produced a three-fold increase in the number of monthly givers acquired. Cons Data and reporting is always an opportunity with any platform. Engaging Networks has been great with helping us connect tools to help increase our advocacy and reporting.

With the dashboards and visual reports, all the information is truly right at your fingertips. It is really elevating our fundraising, advocacy, and email marketing capabilities! The newer page builder and marketing automation tools are game-changers.
