### "Still very happy with Donor Perfect after nearly 10 years!!!"

May 22, 2025

5.0

The reimagined plan that was suggested to us, while a slight bit more than we paid previously, now includes Constant Contact who Donor Perfect is partnering with, and so in fact, we are saving some money in the long run!!

Pros

I really appreciate the ease of individual or batch donor entry, and the report builder is easy to use and gives us a great variety of data about individuals and events.

Cons

Honestly, I can't think of anything major! If I were to be picky, occasionally I'll do a search, and the search engine seems to miss a possible match.

### "Great platform, that can help us scale as we need to"

September 10, 2025

5.0

So far so good. Drag N Drop form builders are my favorite features. Phone and chat support was been really great as well.

Pros

Great system, rich in features and capabilities. So easy to start campaigns, create forms, and launch a campaign. We were already using Constant Contact so it make sending emails seamless.

Cons

Onboarding wasn't so great. Would be great to have more hands in experience as you get started. I had some issues importing data with not ideal work arounds.

### "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.

### "Still Learning"

March 16, 2026

4.0

Certainly not as easy to use as our previous donation program. Yes, it was a simple program that only produced tax receipts.

Pros

We can accept donations on our website with our donors using a credit card. We don't have this feature in our location.

Cons

Reports are difficult to set up quickly. Very confusing to have to set up templates and figure out what needs to go in.

### "Donor Perfect - clunky and difficult for end-users"

October 27, 2025

3.0

7 years as an end- user for a Not-for-profit jail and and prison ministry. While the system was used by several locations it was very difficult to get data specific to my local operations.

Pros

Quite frankly I did not find anything in the program that I liked. While it seem to promise a lot of customization I was never successful in using the bells and whistles.

Cons

Reports were very difficult to get out of the system Dashboard did not work in such a way that was helpful. The system had too many options making it difficult to use for small organizations.

### "WCST Growth Report"

May 5, 2025

5.0

I have been with your program for 15 years and even though I get regular calls for offering the same services, you always come out on top for pricing. Your reps always follow through with questions and concerns and are a delight to work with.

Pros

Their overall company is fantastic! Calling in for help is always very helpful. Your staff is very dedicated to helping nonprofits thrive.

Cons

Some of the programming seamed difficult for me at first but you have upgraded or changed for ease of use.

### "DonorPerfect - A Quality Product"

March 31, 2025

4.0

I find the product robust and have had no incidence of losing data.

Pros

The support staff. I have always received prompt responses that usually resolve my issue. They don't hesitate to escalate an issue if the resolve is not found on the first try.

Cons

Inability to use SQL to write our own queries (filters). I recently learned how I can combine criteria by editing in the last screen, but I could still use more flexibility in creating and/or conditions within one query.

### "Great fundraising software for active nonprofits"

April 10, 2025

5.0

Doing a perfect is an excellent program for a non-profit with these very active fundraising campaign it is a powerful program with not insignificant learning curve

Pros

Donor Perfect tracks all fundraising options with great flexibility. And uses many aspects of the data is the basis for responding so segmentation is easy and Powerful. Tech support was readily available and friendly. It allows easy identification of past givers for future solicitation.

Cons

I was using donor perfect to integrate with Constant Contact email marketing. The integration was not intuitive and the data flows for difficult to establish. Tech support for donor perfect and constant contact each blame the other for difficulties in the integration.

### "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!

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

### "DonorPerfect Review"

November 24, 2025

4.0

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.

### "DonorPerfect Review"

November 25, 2024

5.0

Overall I am impressed with DonorPerfect and am always looking forward for new updates and other programs to use in DonorPerfect.

Pros

DonorPerfect is incredibly robust with many options for running reports and collecting data. This ability to do just about anything is what I like most about DonorPerfect.

Cons

Because of how robust the system is it can become confusing with how many filters there are. In addition some ways of reporting are not possible. For example we like to put together a multi ask report for donors each year, at this time there is no easy report to get donors names who support more that one solicitation each year.

### "Customization allows for more robust reporting"

March 26, 2025

5.0

DonorPerfect is a solid choice for nonprofits looking for a donor management system with strong customization and reporting features. The platform is relatively easy to use, with an intuitive interface that allows users to manage donor records, track donations, and set up fundraising campaigns efficiently.

Pros

Customization is my favorite feature of DonorPerfect. The ability to tailor fields and create customized Smartactions greatly enhances the workflow.

Cons

Customization can be a negative if you dont have strong internal controls to manage who can create and set up new fields.

### "DonorPerfect keeps your frontline staff on track"

December 16, 2024

5.0

My experience has been positive. The education sessions are helpful and the functions of the crm fit my needs.

Pros

As the Major Gift Officer, I can track progress of each individual donors, set next step goals, easily pull reports, and seamlessly save every email correspondence directly into their account. The education sessions are very valuable and gave me the tools I needed to set-up trigger alerts to keep me on task.

Cons

There are several times throughout the day I get logged out without notice resulting in some work being lost and having to be redone. Some days I stay logged in for a long time, other days it's every hour I have to re-log in.

Overall, my experience with Donor Perfect has been great.

Pros

Donor Perfect has an awesome tech support team. Creating reports can be somewhat complicated but the telephone support team is readily available and will walk you through creating reports with ease. The extra cost for phone support is worth it!

Cons

Building reports on Donor Perfect can be complicated. Fortunately, the phone support is very helpful in walking you through the process.

### "DonorPerfect Provides a great support line"

November 13, 2025

5.0

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)

Pros

Cons

There are a lot of complex options and it can be very confusing to use, but training and chat support are super helpful and make it much easier to use.

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

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.

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

### "A perfect switch for us! "

January 8, 2025

5.0

Overall it's been great!! We didn't need all the bells and whistles of Raisers edge so this has been helpful. It's really easy to use and the support is always great and I know I can count on the customer service to help me when I need them.

Pros

DonorPerfect has been a great addition for our team. It simplified a lot of our processes. My favorite aspects include the automatic monthly giving (we didn't have that before) and I find the reports to be easy to use.

Cons

The one thing I would change about DP is that I wish I could edit filters and just update dates or be able to see what flags I used instead of it showing the codes when I go to edit filters.
