Pros

The integreatted forms and communications feature has been my faviourte part of keela so far. In our previous setup we would be boucing between mailchimp, eventbrite and google forms, but now all of that has been collected in one place making it easy to use on a daily basis. It is also a huge benefit that we can add multiple team members to keela, this allows us to give employess access to only what they need to manage.

Cons

So far we have had problems with the lack of integrations with softwares other than stripe. Although the online integration of stripe is usefull we are still required to upload payments made of debit machines (Clover) and e-transfers. If Keela were to offer integration with stripe terminals this would make things much smoother for smaller organizations which operate on less man power.

Overall, I have had a very good experience with Keela.

Pros

I appreciate that it is very easy to find information about individuals donors. The search function works the way I hope it should (put the name in and information pops up) and it isn't frustrating waiting for results. I also appreciate how I can quickly reach giving information for donors and see both recent and historical information without any trouble.

Cons

I would appreciate a Keela app for my phone. I do a lot of donor visits and if I was able to look up information on my phone for a certain donor, that would be incredibly helpful. Also, streamlining reports creation would be helpful. As the leader of my org, I don't do a lot of report creation but when I must do it, it gets confusing very quickly. I am not sure how to make this better but it seems like it could be.

Pros

Keela is easy to use right out of the box, and comes with outstanding customer support for any kinks you may not be able to work out yourself. Importing our old data and onboarding the system was painless.

Cons

Keela is currently lacking in good old-fashioned database functionality like linking consituents to each other and powerful list and query capabilities.

Overall I am very impressed with Keela as a hub for organizational information.

Pros

The platform brings together so many tools, which makes it super flexible and efficient for nonprofit management. It’s like having a Swiss army knife for organization, communication, and fundraising all in one place, without the need to jump between apps.

Cons

One downside I've found is with the Zapier integration—not all fields are available for mapping, which can be a bit limiting. It’s more of a personal use issue, but it would make a big difference for streamlining specific workflows if all fields were accessible for mapping.

Keela has truly transformed how we operate as a non-profit. It has allowed us to deepen our relationships with supporters while making fundraising and outreach much more effortless. The platform’s efficiency has freed up time for our team to focus more on mission-critical work rather than administrative tasks. Keela is a game-changer for any organization looking to maximize its impact.

Pros

What I liked most about Keela is how intuitive and user-friendly it is. The platform is designed with non-profits in mind, making it easy to manage donors, track engagement, and streamline communications. The automation features save us time, and the reporting tools are incredibly insightful.

Cons

It's a bit of a tricky setup with Sendgrid, and getting support is very hard unless you pay for it.

Pros

Keela software stands out for its user-friendly interface, making it easy for nonprofits like ours to manage their operations efficiently. It offers many donor management features, including tracking donations, managing contacts, and communications tools, all of which we use frequently. Additionally, Keela's timely customer support is always appreciated. The software also integrates easily with tools like QuickBooks and PayPal. Overall very pleased with Keela.

Cons

One thing challenge I've had with Keela is its contact merging feature. While it does help identify and merge duplicate contacts, the process can be quite cumbersome. Additionally, once contacts are merged, they cannot be unmerged, which means I have to be very careful during the merging process.

Pros

I like that it is very simple and user friendly. Easy to learn. It does what we need it for which is to log our donations as they come in and keep them organzied.

Cons

The inconvenience of having to make updates/changes when it's the same change for multiple logs. If an impact area needs to be changed to something else or moved under a different category, there is no "select all" or "move" button (think emails) and so I would have to individually go through every single log to make the change which requires several steps.

I have been able to provide amazing benefits to the organization and give program managers to material they need to garner donations and further communicate with those donors. It has completed changed our donation process.

Pros

Being able to house all of our donors and easily communicate with them. Having a place to create forms for revenue and donations within minutes and share it out to the public. Processing fee cover option for donors.

Cons

Not being able to add stock/ quantities to revenue forms. Also formatting images to forms so that it looks professional and parts of the image aren't cut off.
