eCivis vs Little Green Light: Which is a better fit?

It is very intuitive and comprehensive. I really appreciate that I can see completed grant applications to kick start my creative process.

There are no specific cons or issues that I have had or noticed when using this software. There are no improvements needed that I can think of at this time.

The software is a great way to find grant opportunities, and to narrow our search for relevant funding opportunities.

There are times when the application appears to stall, especially in the My Saved Grants mode. I'm unsure where that problem lies.

Pro - Awesome customer service, great ease of use, grant synoposis provides information to immediately assess if it is a viable pursuit. Grant applications are available at the click of a button.

You can still get around this by logging in to your account, but it can still be difficult when viewing on a mobile device.

My experience with this software has been very good because the software is user friendly and easy to work with.

When you try to delete a "stage" you have to leave at least one file in there and can't delete it.

Logical functionality, most bang for the buck, superb customer service, ease of reporting, simplicity of gift upload, great synchronization with other vendors (Constant Contact and We Pay).

There are so many other features that could be included that would make this star star product but sadly they are missing.

Generous free trial period, helpful initial startup pointers, intuitive and easy to set up and use, fast and robust reporting, secure cloud hosting, great value.

The UI is probably the worst thing about it. It has a very out-dated look compared to a lot of newer website applications.

It is also flexible so that you can easily customize it to work for your own context. Their customer support is amazing; it is personal and responsive.

All the questions and problems I have had have been dealt with via their knowledge base, online training documentation and videos and their periodic online group training sessions.

The program is very mature and has almost every feature that you would need as a non-profit. There is good documentation and support is excellent from LGL.

This is in part due to a multi-audience setup and limit on the number of available contacts in Mail Chimp - which is a problem with Mail Chimp and not entirely due to LGL.
