The platform is easy to use and saves us hours of time. Customer service is great and everything we need is in one place. Pros Almabase is great! We have been using it for over a year now and love it even more. It's easy to use and syncs with Raisers Edge which saves us so much time, Cons Honestly, it's so much better than what we were using before. I don't have any complaints. The team at Almabase works with us to solve any problems we have, Switched from [Ellucian Student](https://www.capterra.com/p/171158/Banner-Finance/) Our old site was outdated and Almabase connects with RE Alternatives considered [Ellucian](https://www.capterra.com/p/135932/Ellucian/) Reasons for choosing Almabase The integration and ease of use that Almase offers Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort.

Up until now, I have not set the settings so that any new information is automatically being pushed to Raisers Edge. Once I do that for the next appeal, I may find the system is less clunky the way it interfaces with RE. Pros The responsiveness of the staff and my assigned customer service rep,\[sensitive content hidden\]. He is helpful and instructive. I have also had to use the chat to get help and those folks are responsive and check back in. Cons The final platform look doesn't allow me to create additional "info page" links for things like the individual challenges or incentives, so everything has to be on the main landing page. That makes it very long for mobile devices if I feel I really need to include everything.

We are still learning, but the platforms that we have used, have been very intuitive and easy to use. When we are tripped up by something, chat support is always incredibly helpful. Our alumni have reported mostly good experiences when using the Events and Giving modules. We feel confident that any issues or feedback that we receive, will be welcomed by Almabase and either fixed or added to the list of potential new features down the road, to best suit our needs. Pros While we are still somewhat new to Almabase and haven't explored all of its features yet, I've enjoyed working with the Events module. It's very user-friendly and easy to navigate. Cons There are sometimes minor issues that require contacting chat support or our direct Almabase contact. Since they are minor in nature, they can be frustrating - spacing issues, picture sizing, etc. Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort.

Director of Alumni Relations Non-Profit Organization Management ### "Best database for alumni!" 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 June 23, 2025 Overall, I have been very pleased with Almabase. We have yet to fully utilize its capabilities, and I look forward to continuing to learn and expand our presence with our new and improved database. I have been very impressed with their staff and their database of helpful articles and instructions. Highly recommend. Pros Almabase is just what our alumni have been asking for in a database. It enables alumni to update their information, stay in touch with one another, and remain connected to the school. It functions very much like social media, which is what they asked for. Cons There is a learning curve and a time commitment on the front end to set everything up. However, they provided me with step-by-step instructions and were available every time I encountered a snag.

Executive Director Non-Profit Organization Management ### "One-stop shop for our Alumni Association 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 June 18, 2025 We really like Almabase. Working with their team is great and they are always quick to respond and help address any questions we have. As a small alumni office, having the Almabase support team helps us save time and we appreciate that they listen to our feedback. Pros We like that the Almabase platform is our website, directory, events platform, fundraising platform, and email service all in the same place. This make it very easy for us to track our alumni and their engagement. We really appreciate that alumni can go into their user profile and update their own information. Tracking emails and fundraising on the same platform helps as well. I do like how they are always looking to improve their platform and take our feedback seriously. Cons As with any platform there are things that can be improved. Right now you can track donations and emails receipts but it would be nice to have them eventually track who reads our posts and what pages they are interacting with. That would be a nice feature that would allow us to fully track users. It would also be nice if the platform supported ACH payments.

We have alot of big request often and Almabase does a wonderful job in giving us the tools or information we need Pros How much of an open line of communication there is. Almabase takes "criticism" extremely well. They use it to fuel their next big changes. Most companies would not actually take the time to research as often as Almabase does off their clients feedback. Cons Currently some of the giving aspects. Specifically split gift handling which limits how much we can currently utilize Almabase as we would want. Switched from [GiveCampus](https://www.capterra.com/p/153034/GiveCampus/) Well we still actively use this product because of current features they have Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort.

For the price point, it is a solid product that connect easily with Raisers Edge, eliminating the need for additional data entry. Pros If you have limited staff, Almabase can be a great option as an alumni engagement platform. It is relatively easy to navigate and connects seamlessly with Raisers Edge. Cons I was disappointed in the limited templates and that if you upgrade to the Word Press option, it only works on the main landing page and not the other pages.

About \[sensitive content hidden\] (on the tech support side) have been so great to work with! The best supports I’ve ever received with a tech software. Pros I appreciate that Almabase has really thought about the whole user experience and has made it so customizable, too. And I’m really impressed with the support team. Cons Nothing that wasn’t improved with a little coaching from the very supportive team. When I started, I found the software to be pretty loaded and I felt lost—but the team at Almabase was ready to make sure I had all the information and coaching that I needed to feel confident.

Almabase's trainers and support are based in India. Despite the distance, they have made us feel like one team. The step by step training (thank you, \[sensitive content hidden\] The support (too many to name), the overall experience has been great. We have beautiful giving pages and event registration pages that are capturing data beautifully. Pros We moved to Almabase on a recommendation (that their giving and event software is excellent at data capture and looks great), and while that has been true, the quality of the training and support has actually been what we love the most. Cons I have a small list of features I'd like to see, but honestly, even listing them would be a stretch. For everything we couldn't get there are five features that didn't exist, we mentioned, and then the team implemented them.
