### "THREE18 Ministry Loves Givebutter "

September 9, 2024

5.0

The team both on the phone and online has been great! They are available to help with any problem.

Pros

I love that givebutter is a one stop shop for all things nonprofit. It allows our team to run events, accept recurring donations, and perform live giving rally’s.

Cons

I do not like that we cannot set up bi-monthly giving options for recurring donors but Givebutter staff has assured us they are working the problem.

### "A great product for silent auctions"

September 24, 2024

5.0

Overall, great! I love that we are able to easily put an auction together and include text to give for those who didn't want to participate in the auction. There were a few settings that were hard to find and some fees that seemed a little much. Overall, though, I love this product.

Pros

I love how it is very easy to use. Building out our company's silent auction was a straightforward process.

Cons

There are a few settings that were a little hard to find, like the options to have credit cards run at the end of the auction. The fees that are inquired on credit cards if that option is turned on also feels excessive.

### "Makes Donor Recording Easy"

January 31, 2025

4.0

My experience has been pleasant. My position does not require me to use Givebutter in my daily tasks but it is helpful to reference the information when I need it.

Pros

It is easy to use and easy to navigate. The program is intuitive and simple to figure out without extra training.

Cons

I have not found anything which I do not like at this point.

### "Simple solution for our small nonprofit"

September 11, 2024

5.0

Pros

We love that it is a simple platform with enough options to make it work for multiple purposes (sponsor payments, donations, vendor payments, etc.) for our small nonprofit.

Cons

I wish there was greater capability to customize the payment page. For example, we had several festival vendors who were confused that the button said “donate” instead of “pay now” or something along those lines..

### "Givebutter gets the job done!"

September 9, 2024

4.0

Love it! An easy platform to increase our online giving capacity.

Pros

I like the simplicity and ease of use of Givebutter. It's a great alternative to some of the more difficult to use CRMs. The staff are friendly and always willing to be helpful.

Cons

I'm eager for GB to continue developing additional functionality around data analysis and email marketing.

### "Great tool for small to medium sized non-profit"

September 9, 2024

4.0

I've had an A+ experience with Givebutter so far. I think it walks a good line between technological versatility and simplicity. As with all platforms, there are plenty of areas where it can grow or add more value, but on the whole, it's been a great tool for our non-profit.

Pros

In my experience with Givebutter, they offer some really exceptional webinars which serve as useful resources for fundraising. I've also really enjoyed their customer service team which is always quick to respond and very creative in their approach. For a crm which is free, it's an excellent tool for our needs.

Cons

The only challenge I've encountered has been a somewhat limited platform for newsletters- especially when trying to seek diverse avenues to recruit new readers. I'd love more versatility in sign up button options, even something that I can add to our overall campaigns to increase readership/following.

September 9, 2024

5.0

Givebutter has been extremely helpful in our fundraising for a local school campaign. We can collect online donations, sell tickets to our fundraising event and send emails to contacts about our progress. We really like that it's such a comprehensive fundraising platform.

Pros

The ease of use of the platform, and that fact that it allows for all types of fundraising (online, event, etc.).

Cons

The email interface could be more nimble. I also wish there was an option to add custom HTML code.

### "Great Product"

July 16, 2024

5.0

Givebutter has made it easier to keep track of all our online donations in one place. The transfer funds feature is so easy, and the funds hit the account within a day or two.

Pros

I like that I can have Pay Pal and other donation platforms, all in one place. I like having the ability to pull reports when I need them. I also like the way we can create campaigns and keep track of how much we have raised at any point of the event

Cons

I really don't have anything bad to say about Givebutter. I really like the features

Reason for choosing Givebutter

It was an easy place to have everything on one location. We can see all donations that come in.

### "We dig it!"

September 9, 2024

5.0

overall, a very good platform for the non profit I work with.

Pros

I love the ease of the platform. How it connects with all of our platforms. It's pretty. And you can use multiple payments like venmo and apple pay for ease of donating.

Cons

I wish I could incorporate our swag on here somehow for a boost of sales for our fundraising. I don't like how it doesn't tell you how many tickets are sold (instead of supporters- It's very complicated on the back end)

### "Great for non-profits "

July 28, 2024

5.0

Very good. Teams using report easy to setup, public facing info very easy to manage and looks nice

Pros

Free for non profits. Had to send paperwork to prove our status, after that was easy

Cons

We run multiple fundraisers on same account, so the lists of names gets mixed. When transfer to our bank account, would be nice to have a few words appear on transfer on bank statement. We have multiple fundraisers and they all transfer as “Givebutter”. If we could make it say “Givebutter basketball” or even a few letters so the person doing bank reconciliation knows which of the 5 Givebutter sub accounts the transfer came from.

September 9, 2024

I oversaw the nonprofit I work for switching to Givebutter for donations and event ticketing, and it's been a very positive experience.

Pros

Nice balance of intuitive usability on the back end and attractive aesthetics in the public sites and interfaces.

Cons

I still need to figure out how to title events in a way that the registration emails make clear whether someone is attending the in-person or live stream version for easy tracking.

September 9, 2024

5.0

Our 501(c)(3) local museum has used Givebutter for two years now and they have been great. Based on regular communication from them, I realize there are more fund-raising ideas and opportunities on this platform if we can just find the dedicated time and volunteers to pursue those.

Pros

Great fund-raising ideas, easy to use platform, and affordable for a small, not-for-profit organization.

Cons

I cannot think of anything at the moment.
