### "Donor Perfect for new nonprofit"

June 17, 2025

4.0

Overall positive although there are definitely some parts of it that are a bit clunky. Great starting program for us.

Pros

We were new to the non-profit world and Donor Perfect was a great way for us to get started. We were able to get our donors and contacts input easily.

Cons

It's not super responsive and/or intuitive. Sometimes it takes a lot to figure out how to do something and customer service takes a break in the middle of the day - often when we need help!

### "Positive experience"

March 25, 2025

4.0

Overall my experience with Donor Perfect has been positive. I look forward to continued learning and enhancing my skills.

Pros

I have found the program overall to be user friendly. I am not a tech savvy person so to have an easy to use program is extremely helpful. I have found most solutions within the knowledge base.

Cons

The least thing about Donor Perfect so far has been with the year end tax letters. This may be the same for all email templates but the inability to reprint a single letter after the bulk email has been sent was frustrating and difficult

### "A depth of user-based solutions for your donor tracking needs"

March 31, 2025

4.0

Overall good. Still need to work out some kinks in how we do things and it doesn't always work in Safari, which means I have to switch browsers to use video message capabilities and to save photos for profile pictures.

Pros

Makes it easy to track our donors, analyze trends in giving, and has more features that we can potentially add on to become more efficent.

Cons

It's not always intuitive and can get pricey quickly.

### "DonorPerfect is a great choice for an easy to use CRM"

May 7, 2025

5.0

What really sets DonorPerfect apart is the outstanding customer service and training resources. From onboarding to ongoing support, their team has been responsive, knowledgeable, and helpful.

Pros

We recently transitioned to DonorPerfect, and the conversion process was seamless from start to finish. We chose DonorPerfect because we needed an intuitive, easy-to-use donor management system that could accommodate a wide range of staff skill levels. DonorPerfect has delivered on all fronts. The platform is user-friendly and flexible, making it easy for our team to get up and running quickly.

Cons

Changing systems is a challange but that would be true for any system

### "DP: Great Support & User-Friendly "

January 27, 2025

5.0

Overall, our organization has had a positive experience with DonorPerfect. We enjoy how everything we need is all on the same platform, and it has streamlined our donor development processes greatly.

Pros

DonorPerfect is all encompassing and has some of the best customer support I have encountered. When I often use chat support, a competent and kind individual is ready to help within seconds.

Cons

At times, DonorPerfect has long processes to do otherwise simple tasks. I wanted my dashboard to automatically pull a report of the mot recent 10 donations, and it was a hassle to get it added.

### "User Friendly Interface"

April 1, 2025

5.0

Overall it is great and you can get customer service to advise any steps you may need. It is also sent to you via email afterwards for easy step-keeping.

Pros

DonorPerfect has a user interface that is very easy to get used to especially if you have not used software any type of CRM software before

Cons

It does crash from time to time and even though it says to click on the top right to report there is no link to click on an error page.

### "A quick review"

April 28, 2025

5.0

Pros

The love the chat help. With our previous software, if we wanted help we had to search tutorials to try to troubleshoot ourselves. The chat help make it easy to do that and to figure out reports.

Cons

When entering a split pledge payment, the lifetime giving field double counts the entry.

### "DonorPerfect is great."

December 9, 2024

5.0

Our organization has been using DonorPerfect for over a year, and it has been great for our fundraising efforts. The software is incredibly intuitive, which made onboarding our team and getting up to speed remarkably smooth. The donor management features are outstanding. We can easily track donor histories, segment donors for targeted campaigns, and generate detailed reports that provide invaluable insights into our fundraising performance. The built-in tools for email marketing and donation forms have significantly increased our efficiency and donor engagement. One feature we particularly love is the automated thank-you messages, which help us maintain strong donor relationships while saving time. Overall, DonorPerfect has enabled us to streamline our operations, enhance donor communication, and ultimately raise more funds for our cause. I would highly recommend it to any nonprofit looking for a reliable and versatile fundraising solution!

Pros

The donor management features are outstanding. We can easily track donor histories, segment donors for targeted campaigns, and generate detailed reports that provide invaluable insights into our fundraising performance. The built-in tools for email marketing and donation forms have significantly increased our efficiency and donor engagement.

Cons

I can't say there is too much about DonorPerfect that I dont like. Integrating graphics into forms and receipts was a bit of a cumbersome process, but overall, not bad compared to a previous program we used.

### "DP does it's job!"

March 31, 2025

4.0

Overall, I find DonorPerfect to be user friendly and meets the needs of our organization.

Pros

I like the ease of support through the chat function. It provides quick and easy support when needed and you receive an email follow up recapping the exchange.

Cons

Sometimes when they escalate an issue you may be having the follow up is not consistent and often does not happen unless you reach back out.

### "Continuing to Learn After 6 Years"

November 4, 2024

4.0

We continue to want to learn and take advantage of all DP has to offer, and are not tempted to explore another CRM. ReadySetAuction helps us coordinate a smooth online auction every year.

Pros

DonorPerfect's customer service and training are second to none. Their knowledgeable team is patient and more than happy to answer questions. They don't rush you. If they don't know the answer, they will find out and circle back to you.

Cons

The options for DonorPerfect's forms for online giving need continued development. We choose to use a third-party that works well with DonorPerfect until DP can provide some of the same features.

### "Perfect for Multiple Integrations "

November 20, 2025

5.0

Overall, for an organization of our size and staff, we are happy with the integrations and ease of DonorPerfect, both for our internal use and for our Donor Facing Web forms and email integrations.

Pros

We use DonorPerfect Website Forms for all our online giving. The process is seamless with our QuickBooks software and integrates with our constant contact account for easy email campaigns.

Cons

Segmenting Data and pulling reports can be clunky and the limited amount of dashboards makes it a bit harder to get quick looks at data in real time.

### "Loving Donor Perfect!"

April 4, 2025

5.0

So far it has been a real pleasure getting to see the ways that Donor Perfect will work for our school.

Pros

I like the ability to gather all the information for a donor in one easy place, the ability to customize fields that need to be added, the icons for major donors, etc, that it shows how long the person has been a donor, and it shows if the donor is lapsed or current.

Cons

We are still working out how to enter records for married couples since sometimes we want to address them as a couple and sometimes we want to address just the spouse.

Pros

I've work with Donor Perfect program for the past 7.5 years. By far the software is one of the best. I love the support team. They are so knowledgeable. Donor Perfect Reports and Fundraising Tools is a must for any Non-Profit agency to have when planning yearly goals.

Pros

The customer support and training session was extremely helpful. The DonorPerfect agent was so knowledgeable and went above and beyond to help me find the most efficient way to operate.

Cons

The "possible duplicate" warning when we are setting up mulitple people in the same apartment complexes - obviously a lot of similar addresses.

November 24, 2025

It's been an interesting process to lean into donor management. I have worked in the non-profit performing arts world as a marketer. I'm impressed with it compared to Audience View and Theatre Manager

Pros

I like the general ease of use and I find the chat customer support very helpful. I also like the integration with outside apps like Constant Contact

Cons

I find it challenging to pull reports and wish that could be more intuitive. I also find the Classic website forms not very flexible.

The Customer Support at DonorPerfect is beyond compare. The team is courteous, knowledgeable, and quick. If for some reason they can't find the answer, they will go above and beyond to look for a solution.

November 13, 2025

DonorPerfect has been easy to use thus far, what I require from it as a Development assistant has been quite straightforward. All of the resources like webinars, chat support for both messages and calls are a great resource and have helped hugely. Everyone who I have both messaged and called have been a great help and are very knowledgeable!

Pros

That I can speak with someone over the phone to get detailed instructions when I need help, and that there are webinars that breaks down how to use their features.

Cons

That certain gifts are labelled under different flags based on how they come in, despite the donations all being the same type (monthly for example)

### ""Essential Software for Nonprofits – User-Friendly, Comprehensive, and Great Support""

November 18, 2024

5.0

"My overall experience with DonorPerfect has been very positive. The software provides all the essential tools that a nonprofit needs to efficiently manage donations, track donor activity, and generate detailed reports. It’s intuitive and easy to use, even for someone new to nonprofit software. The customer support and resources are top-notch, making it easier to get started and resolve any questions. Although the pricing may be a bit higher for small organizations, the value it offers in terms of features and support makes it a great investment for nonprofits aiming for long-term growth."

Pros

"What I liked most about DonorPerfect is how user-friendly and customizable it is. As someone setting up a nonprofit, I found the donor management features incredibly helpful for tracking donations and building strong relationships with supporters. The detailed reporting tools make it easy to analyze data and plan effectively. I also appreciate the excellent customer support and training resources, which are perfect for someone new to nonprofit software."

Cons

"One area that could be improved is the pricing structure, as it may be a bit on the higher end for small nonprofits just getting started. Additionally, while the software is quite powerful, it can take a bit of time to fully explore and learn all of its features, which might be overwhelming for new users without prior experience with similar tools."
