How many users will need to access the software?

Provide the tools your development team needs to succeed by determining the key personnel who require access to your donor management software.

What kind of technical support will we need?

All systems encounter issues from time to time. Software with a great reputation in customer support can alleviate your concerns and help when you need it most.

How will staff be trained in the new system?

Set timelines and goals to keep your staff on track as your team learns your new donor management software. A simple, intuitive platform will streamline this process!

Five steps to buying donor management software

Shopping around for donor management software can be stressful, especially when there are so many systems to choose. The best way to nail down the donation management software that’s right for your nonprofit is to stay organized and follow these essential steps.

1. Research donor management software.

The best donation management software will help you streamline your operations, build stronger donor relationships, and send targeted outreach that earns more fundraising dollars. Read product pages and software reviews to get a sense for how well each platform stacks up.

2. Reach out to vendors.

Once you’ve determined the donor management software vendors that could be a fit your organization, reach out to schedule software demos. Never invest in software without seeing it in action! Most websites have demo forms that you can fill out, but an old fashioned phone call never hurts and may get the info you need sooner.

3. Walk your vendor through your donor data.

One of the largest determining factors in the cost of your donor management software will be the amount of data you need to host. Plus, it’s important that the vendor understands how your current software works so that they can quote you properly for any implementation services you need.

4. Seal the deal.

Before you sign a contract, make sure you have your board’s approval and a designated staff member to see the implementation process through from beginning to end. If you need time to sort these details, give your vendor a verbal commit to stay at the top of their radar.

5. Break in your new donor management software.

Once the contract has been signed, you can work with your vendor to start transferring data, setting up integrations, and training your staff in the new system. Your new donor management software will soon be ready, and when it is, you won’t be able to imagine how you survived without it!
