We transitioned over in March of 2025, and I know it was 100% the right decision. Pros It is a fantastic system. The value for the money is great. It is very user-friendly. The customer support is top-notch. Our account manager, \[sensitive content hidden\], is wonderful to work with. We use the system for donor and donation management, event ticketing, and peer-to-peer fundraising. It's easy to run reports, which has been a pain point before using Giveffect. Cons I have nothing major to note. Just a couple of enhancements I'd like to see like a pop-up on contact records for a deceased individual or a "do not solict" contact. Switched from [Salsa Engage](https://www.capterra.com/p/114212/Salsa-Engage/) Need a product that could do more and be user-friendly. Also, the customer support is top-notch at Giveffect.

They helped us with the transfer from a previous program, trained our staff and have provided ongoing support with a very quick response time to questions. Pros Ease of use for donor management and for creating fundraising campaigns and managing them. They provide excellent customer service and a variety of features and capabilities. Cons I don't think there is anything that I dislike about the program. They have added new services and features. Switched from [DonorPerfect](https://www.capterra.com/p/2698/DonorPerfect-Fundraising-Software/) We needed more features that the other program didn't offer.

Getting started was nerve-wracking for me, but their team helped onboard us quickly and with few bumps. Now that we've been with Giveffect for about 3 years, we are still incredibly satisfied and as our team has grown and developed, we've been able to discover new tools in Giveffect that help us to level up with our efforts. Pros The data points in donor profiles, ability to manage volunteers, grants, donors, and text/email/phone communications all within the same platform. Cons Some analytics from the integrations aren't as thorough through the Giveffect platform, but you can get the full analytics from the integrations website. Switched from [Bonterra Network for Good](https://www.capterra.com/p/111128/Bonterra-Guided-Fundraising/) We needed more tools and data points in our donor profiles.

Pros Giveffect is a game-changer for our small nonprofit, SoléAna Stables! This comprehensive CRM has streamlined our operations and empowered us to make a meaningful impact. Navigating the platform is a breeze, thanks to its user-friendly interface. If we ever encounter any hiccups, our dedicated account manager is just a message away, ready to assist and implement any necessary tweaks. Creating engaging fundraising campaigns and email initiatives has never been easier with Giveffect. The Ai Writer tool is a particular favorite of ours, making content creation a seamless and efficient process. Our account managers have been an invaluable asset, always attentive and proactive in addressing our needs. At SoléAna Stables, we believe in the healing power of horses and the positive change they can inspire. With Giveffect by our side, we can focus on our mission with confidence, knowing that we have a reliable partner supporting us every step of the way. Cons There are a few functionality issues, but Giveffect is excellent at taking suggestions and implementing them! Switched from [Bonterra Giving Days](https://www.capterra.com/p/159669/Bonterra-Giving-Days/) We were using Network for Good - you didn't have that listed as an option. Giveffect offered more features including an Ai Writer tool.

Pros The people. Everyone I have encountered as a long term relationship has worked hard to understand our organization and our needs. Cons There is nothing really. All of our issues have been either solved or staff has helped us find work arounds. Switched from [Salesforce Platform](https://www.capterra.com/p/268338/App-Cloud/) So many reasons. Salesforce is a complicated system that eats staff time for very little ROI.

We have used it for 3 years and still haven't utilized all the features to the fullest. Pros Giveffect is truly an all-in-one platform that saves time and frustrations of having to access multiple platforms. It integrates all the systems together across the platform so you don't have to duplicate efforts. The AI Writer is a game changer! Cons Nothing, It has been an amazing time saver! They have a great team that is dedicated to our success.

I feel like we are still learning everything that Give Effect can do for us! Give Effect has allowed our office to have a working CRM that we can use throughout the staff. It's easy to update and we longer have to ask each other for contact information! Pros I love the ease of the CRM and also the email campaigns. Being able to have up-to-date contacts and donor information has been amazing for our small office. We have recently subscribed to the text messaging component and are enjoying that as well. Cons I wish you can have more variety in designing an email. Also, it would be great to be able to have different fonts and sizes within a paragraph. I would also love to be able to send a photo with a text message. Review source Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site.

They check in with us twice a year, and support is easy to access unlike our previous software! Pros It does practically everything we need it to do, from donor relations to volunteer management to our annual auction. It's responsive and connects with several other prominent softwares like DonorSearch and Double the Donation! Cons The household reporting is a little lacking and needs improvement, but we're communicating to them about this regularly. Also wish the volunteer interface was a little easier for older volunteers to understand & use.

The platform is easy to use, and is great for centralizing contacts. Cons Giveffect can feel unwieldy at times. To create campaigns with email reminders, or to update hours, giving, etc. for contacts, it can sometimes feel like you are clicking through a lot of pages. There are also a few features that would be nice to have, such as the option to make campaigns recurring.
