### "Seamless, Smart, and Scalable – Highly Recommend"

June 26, 2025

5.0

Our overall experience with DonorPerfect has been excellent. The system is very user-friendly and the reporting options are fantastic.

Pros

DonorPerfect stands out as one of the most comprehensive and user-friendly CRMs on the market today. Excellent reporting and analytics and great customer service.

Cons

The donor duplicate function needs to be refined, It doesn't always catch the duplicates and we end up with several records for the same donor.

### "Excellent database with a fantastic team"

June 2, 2025

5.0

Excellent overall experience and we are really happy with this system. It meets all our needs and more!

Pros

This is a very user friendly system with an excellent customer service team who work very hard to answer any questions quickly, no matter how small. We also really like being able to taylor the database to our requirements, and the connection with Constant Contact.

Cons

Still a few tweaks to make it even more compatable with the UK clients (Gift Aid, searching by post code), but we know the team are very proactive and are working on this.

Overall excellent except for the reporting functionality, other databases I have used - Every Action and Bloomerang are good examples

Pros

The customer support is unmatched and unique for fundraising database platforms. The tools are intuitive and stay up to date with the integrated tasks we need as fundraisers - ie: updating credit card expires, integration with email crm's

Cons

The reporting tool, is old and clunky, like a version of a year 2000 MS database. I suggest updating it so it is a user friendly and searchable form of fields.

### "Donor Perfect is Perfect for Us!"

June 30, 2025

5.0

My overall experience with Donor Perfect has been very positive. It meets our needs for reporting, accounting, and donor records. When we have to make a change, it is generally intuitive and easy.

Pros

Donor Perfect is user friendly. Onboarding new staff is very easy because of the clean interface. The hardest part of training is to remind new staff that stationary must have the watermark correctly oriented.

Cons

There is only one thing that bothers me with DonorPerfect. Updating Mail Merge letters is far too cumbersome. When letterhead has to be updated, I have to go through dozens of letters by hand. Download each letter, move the original letter to a different folder or status, upload each new letter. This takes a considerable amount of time and has any number of places where an error might occur. I wish we could just download the letter that has to be updated, then upload/overwrite the existing letter by saving the new letter.

April 2, 2025

4.0

The best part is how great the Assistants for help are. They always give an easy to follow break down of how to use Donor Perfect as well as RSA.

Pros

I like that I can get all of my data in one place. I especially liked the convenience of Ready Set Auction for our recent event, which I found and used through Donor Perfect.

Cons

Sometimes I have trouble with creating formulas for my reports.

### "Great Customer Support and Functionality"

February 24, 2026

5.0

Our organization has access to a sophisticated and comprehensive tool to properly manage and analyze data in order to make informed decisions regarding fund development activity.

Pros

It is a powerful and comprehensive platform allowing for the careful management of data and the appropriate processing of financial transactions. Considering the many sophisticated features, it does provide good value for the money. Improvements are always considered based on customer feedback. The support team is collaborative and very helpful.

Cons

The complexity of the platform may appear overwhelming, yet the customer support is exceptional allowing everyone to develop the appropriate comfort level.

### "DonorPerfect Rating"

November 17, 2025

4.0

What I use DonorPerfect for meets my needs but there are areas that I don't know much about. When I need to run a report I am not able to do it by myself but the support team is very helpful.

Pros

Whenever I need assistance the help line is very good. I get detailed and easy to execute directions from DonorPerfect.

Cons

The area that is the least favorite in DonorPerfect is making reports, which is very important to my organization. It is not very easy find the categories that apply to what my needs are.

### "Good for small to medium companies"

May 25, 2026

4.0

Overall, I like the DP experience. It's easy to enter and look up information, there's a lot of different fields to keep information separate.

Pros

The ease of entering batch gift entries is a big plus. its very simple and quick to do, very intuitive.

Cons

The overly complicated and not intuitive reporting process causes me to spend time on the phone with support for simple reports. It's a very frustrating process. The reports also don't always download in the same format type.

### "DonorPerfect Review"

March 27, 2026

4.0

DonorPerfect has been a generally positive experience to use for managing our database and files. It is a central place for us to store all our files to be able to find them quickly the next time we need them.

Pros

Customer support is done well; they are very knowledgeable and helpful in teaching us how to use their software. The platform is easy to use. It is easy to send emails for marketing from the platform, and managing our database is easy within the system.

Cons

DonorPerfect can be a bit of a learning curve for someone who is not tech-savvy. A person less tech-savvy will just need to be patient while they are learning to use the platform and use the customer support feature to learn how the platform works.

### "Great capability and easy to use!"

April 4, 2025

4.0

Overall, I've had a positive experience with the program. It is intuitive. My colleagues like it too. We had the option to go with another program earlier this year and we stuck with DonorPerfect

Pros

I like DonorPerfect's mobile app. That way I can view information when I'm not in the office or next to my computer. I like that I can use the pledges function to track multiple grants from one funding source.

Cons

I wish that DonorPerfect had more features related to grants, like tracking spend downs. However, I know that is beyond the scope of the program.

### "Admin Review on DonorPerfect "

December 2, 2025

3.0

It works! I honestly still feel like I’m learning how to work with it and am trying to hold off on having an opinion until I know how to use it better. I think it could be more helpful than I know.

Pros

The customer support through chat option is INCREDIBLY helpful! They provide step by step instructions for any issue you may have.

Cons

The donor management is not necessarily the easiest to use or most intuitive. I struggle with finding donors, spouse details, flags, households, etc. and wish they were set up differently.

### "Best Donation Website"

June 30, 2025

5.0

I love the fact if I have a question about a donor or about the website I can most likely find someone right away with very limited time of waiting for someone to come to the phone. Best Customer Service yet!! Keep up the great job.

Pros

The fact we can find our Donors by number makes life so much easier than looking up the last name or by zip code. Last names can get tricky especially if someone has the same last name.

Cons

It can really be slow from time to time when I am very busy and need it to work lol but over all its not bad at all.

### "DonorPerfect Is (Almost) Perfect"

April 11, 2025

4.0

Overall, my experience with DonorPerfect has been wonderful. I can easily build reports and find donor records, plus it has a receipting function to program and pull donors who recently gave gifts, so you never miss an opportunity to send a thank-you letter.

Pros

DonorPerfect is a donor database system that allows you to customize specific landing pages for donations and routes them into the system with the user's giving history.

Cons

Sometimes it is difficult to use the criteria building selection for generating giving reports. I have had to consult the customer support team several times for assistance.

### "DonorPerfect is great!"

June 10, 2025

5.0

Overall, I am happy with my experience on DonorPerfect. I have been working with it since 2023 and it has quickly been one of the most efficient platforms I have worked with.

Pros

DonorPerfect's interface is very user friendly and intuitive. From inputting gifts to pulling reports and producing receipts/donor acknowledgement letters, DonorPerfect makes it easy and efficient to get the information you need right at your fingertips.

Cons

Sometimes errors pop up when in the middle of gift processing or running reports, which should be worked on. It can interrupt a whole process in which you have to start again from scratch. A quick refresh of the page usually does the trick to have it return to normal, but occasionally there are times where the browser needs to be shut down and then re-opened.

### "Supportive and Intutive"

October 2, 2025

4.0

They've been super helpful, and I've found that it's easy to get started. Their knowledgebase is wonderful, and their customer support is truly supportive. It doesn't have all the fanciest bells and whistles, but for an organization that never used a CRM platform before (our needs are not extensive), we are great we chose them.

Pros

I love the ease of the system itself. It is intuitive to complete nearly any task, and I really like the overview on each donor profile. The support staff is also fantastic, and problems are solved in minutes. The cost was also perfect for our budget. I love the ability to customize reports as well; there is a small learning curve, but it's wonderful after that.

Cons

I feel the forms could be a bit smoother. We use one for volunteer tracking, but it's a bit clunky having to transfer data. The integrations available can help with the issue if needed. I also wish we could choose what our home screen looked like or just an opportunity for more aesthetic and ease of use choices.

### "Great CRM for small and medium sized nonprofits"

August 20, 2025

4.0

I've used DonorPerfect a little over 6 years now, and the customer service support is top-notch. The reps are knowledgeable and always helpful.

Pros

For the most part, the modules are comprehensive, especially the reporting, and there are lots of useful features. Generally the interface is intuitive and easy to use.

Cons

Certain processes are tedious and non-intuitive, such as setting up filters for specific reports. One important field on the main donor screen that is missing is the ability to mark donors as deceased so they can easily be removed from certain reports. It would be great if the new online forms have the multi-page donation option.

### "Great Program"

April 8, 2025

4.0

Would highly recommend. Great experience with this company!

Pros

I love being able to have our donors all in one place. It makes keeping track of donors, their info, and giving much easier. I also love the ability to integrate donations from giving platforms into DonorPerfect and syncing them with our QuickBooks. Saves a lot of time. Another option I love is their customer service. They are wonderful. Most easiest to connect with customer service I have ever dealt with. They are always very informative and walk me through the process of any questions I may have.

Cons

I would have to say that running reports with all the various filters can be quite tricky and confusing at times. The customer service is great at helping with this, and once you have the filters and reports correct, it works beautifully!

The support makes it a great option; the chat support is great. This has given us the ability to manage our donors much more effectively.

Pros

It is highly customizable. The ability to track donors and manage contacts, gifts, pledge, etc. is exceptional. Whenever something can't be figured out, their customer service is great too.

Cons

The Screen Designer is a little clunky. A drag and drop option would be great, but it doesn't exist yet.

### "Happy to be back"

April 14, 2025

5.0

I used DonorPerfect in a previous role and have missed it ever since, so I’m happy that we’ve finally made the switch here at RCMSAR. It’s easy to use, super intuitive, and the reporting tools are solid—lots of ways to dig into the data without getting overwhelmed. There are a ton of features that saves time and makes it easier to keep track of and undestand donors and donations in a way that actually makes sense. As a fundraising-communications-'other duties as assigned' team of one, it will make a big difference in how I work. And honestly, the support is fantastic. The webinars (both live and on-demand) are helpful and easy to follow, and the online chat support folks are very responsive and helpful. So glad to be back in the DonorPerfect community!

Pros

It's easy to use, there are lots of features, and the reporting capabilities are very helpful for our organization. I also appreciate the Constant Contact integration.

Cons

I remember the consolidated tax receipting process at the end of the tax year rather cumbersome, although we always received individual support producing them, so I wasn't left to my own devices.

My overall experience with DonorPerfect has been a positive one. As stated prior, the ease of using their knowledge base system is great and the online help support is fantastic.

Pros

The customer support that I receive even after utilizing this product for three plus years is outstanding.

Cons

I still have yet to figure out automatic receipting which would negate the need for manual acknowledgement letters to be generated.

Overall it is great! I really appreciate the trainings and the chat function-so helpful to be able to ask a person and not a computer or AI

Pros

I find the chat function SO helpful! It is a real person and not a computer, which is so rare. I always like to try to figure out something on my own but chat always comes through in the end.

Cons

It is a bit complex and just takes a lot of time to learn. There are so many functions and options that it is a big undertaking.

We have been using DonorPerfect for a little over a year. Our auditors just gave us a big thumbs up on the accuracy and efficiency of our donation reports.
