Pam W.: Hi, I'm Pam. I'm director of operations. And I give Donorbox a five out of five. Click below for more reviews. We're a pretty new organization. We spun off from a larger one back in 2019, where we used Salesforce. Salesforce worked fine in the situation that we were in at the time, and we planned to continue with it, but it just didn't work for our users and the size of organization we ended up being. We tried Raiser's Edge as well, and that was a little bit similar. And then, we looked at Donorbox, which ended up to be the perfect solution for us. I looked at different kind of options and someone recommended Donorbox to me. So, when I looked at it, it looked like it would be a possibility. And because there wasn't a big investment upfront, like with some of the bigger ones, I decided to go with it. We have been so impressed, and it fits who we are as an organization. It fits the kind of people that work with us so perfectly. I think one of the things that's been most exciting to us is we have a lot of volunteer workers who recruit donors to give to them personally to do volunteer work overseas in different relief and development sorts of organizations and different situations. Many of them have struggled over the years to have enough to live on when they've been volunteering, but not since we started with Donorbox. People can sit with a potential donor and just tell them to enter in what is a very easy URL that's linked to our account on their phone, and within 30 seconds, they've given them a donation. So, for the last year, every single volunteer that we've had work with us has been fully funded and supported mainly because Donorbox has made it so easy. Donorbox made it really easy to start. They were really clear on the coding and the plugins we needed to install it, particularly into our own website. So, they made that really simple. They made it very simple to just have a URL that was made easy to read and for people to remember. People don't even have to look up our URL now for the Donorbox donation page because it's so easy and simple to memorize. It was easy to train our people on. So it was just an incredibly user-friendly experience to get started with it. I really recommend Donorbox, particularly to small and mid-size type of organizations. And really a high point of them, not something you would necessarily know until you'd already been involved as a user, is I'll recommend them as the most helpful help desk and customer service people in the industry. They are incredibly kind to both our donors and to us as users. Any kind of troubleshooting we've needed to do, they have done so quickly and efficiently and with great kindness and understanding always, even to the people who are the least tech-savvy amongst us or amongst our donors. They've just made it so easy to work with them. That's one of the reasons I really recommend them.

Speaker 1: Hi, I'm Carl. I'm the Golf Director at 180 Omaha and I rate GolfStatus a five out of five. Prior to using GolfStatus, we were using Golf Genius. We had no real issues with them, but were recommended to GolfStatus and we are so happy we made the change. Everything flowed very smoothly and was easy to use. We chose GolfStatus because they offered it to us free as a nonprofit. They also helped us raise more money with some of the programs that they have going on in their website, and it's a much more attractive website. It was super easy to get started with GolfStatus. We had a quick 10-minute phone call, couple emails, and our website was literally up and going. I would say, do not hesitate. These guys are genuine with what they say, they come through with everything that they tell you they're going to do, and they help you raise more money with your event than your event has done in the past.
