### "Vivian's Door Network For Good Review"

June 14, 2021

5.0

I've had an overall great experience with Network For Good. My coach makes sure that I know how to use the software to accomplish our fundraising goals.

Pros

The software is feature packed and there is great customer support. An individual coach makes the experience operating the software within the framework of your fundraising efforts is the icing on the cake.

Cons

There are a lot of moving pieces, so you have to stay abreast of the software.

### "Such a great tool ...especially for a new non-profit or ministry"

March 25, 2025

4.0

As the Founder, Exec. D. I used NFG more often than I do today in the early years - however I do appreciate the way that it has helped guide us with donor development. My most recent Director of Admin was really able to organize our groups, and contacts in a way that was more helpful for us, we are still not super savvy with our Bonterra Guided Fundraising...we seem to be always running at such a fast pace in our ministry that we lack the time to sit through all the webinars and read the very many emails that come through but we do feel it is a great product and look forward to utilizing it a bit more in the future.

Pros

When we began as a new organization - this was a super useful and helpful tool for us. We have now moved from the infant stage of development to a more mature stage where we have been able to utilize our NFG data to learn more about the trends of our donors.

Cons

I appreciate the confidentiality and security of the platform but wish that as an organization we could be trusted to input our donors as they join us into NFG with thier recurring donation commitment and if given to us the credit card information they provide us. Many donors I feel will give on the spot at an event by writing in the payment information but so many are still intimidated by the QR code, and getting on a device to do it whether there or at home when they may forget. I also wish the month end ( LDOM) Dashboard would be still be there with all the graphs etc....maybe saved somewhere so on the 5th as I prepare for board meeting the graphs would be there.

The functionality of grouping contacts was not as robust and there was not a guided fundraising or event tool.

### "Strong CRM but not the best"

April 2, 2026

3.0

Overall, my experience with has been positive, particularly for organizations looking for a simple, all-in-one fundraising and donor management solution

Pros

is super easy to use and great for our mid-sized nonprofit team. It has a bunch of capacity to help your organization, including but not limited to donor data, email campaigns, events, and fundraising. My organization uses it mostly for donor data and fundraising. Additionally, the fundraising support is awesome, offering handy tips and best practices to help you stay on track and boost your programmatic efforts.

Cons

Cost is one of the biggest drawbacks. Pricing is high, and the reporting functionality and customization options can feel somewhat limited compared to CRMs I've used with other organizations.

### "Fantastic for Nonprofits"

July 1, 2021

5.0

It's been a really positive experience. The customer service is quick and friendly. They're constantly updating the software for the better. It's really easy to use, even for the least tech-savvy people.

Pros

The CRM works really well -- it's easy to keep track of donors, real-time donations, and events. It lets you stay in contact with donors and see their patterns of giving. It's also easy to see which events brought in the most donations, and lets you easily email groups of donors, either by event or by giving patterns.

Cons

The forms (surveys) are too limited. I can't collect data in the way I want, so it makes surveying donors difficult.

### "Pretty incredible system overall"

December 1, 2025

5.0

Overall I think you're incredibly fastidious you're on The cutting edge you're very conscientious of staying in communication with your client base you're willing to shape your software to meet the changing needs and your frequently sharing updates on information to show how to use the software more effectively. I find the too easy to use and I enjoy those interactions. Overall it's really a pretty great software system.

Pros

As a grant writer I mostly use Network for good to enter our donor funds as they come in and to keep track of grants that we receive. I'm really valuing how easy it is to use the system. I don't have to do a ton of work to get the necessary info entered. I like that when I start to type in addresses of new contacts it finds the address and populates the rest of the fields. I also like the new AI tool for creating reports I was able to ask for reports that reflected favorable outcomes just to test it out and it was clever enough to figure out what data looks decent and to send that to me. Although we haven't used it I think the text and video tools are a nice option. As somebody who values using tech I think it's good to have these things in place for when the organization is ready to do such but right now we're a little bit old-fashioned in some ways.

Cons

I think for me having a couple of categories to enter the information into is unnecessary because most of the time it's duplicated when I have the drop-down option to disseminate where the funds are to be attributed to and for what cause. I also find that it is challenging that we receive the checks and have to process them and then enter everything manually versus there being some sort of havingl way to do that like the bank has where I just photograph a check and it's pushed through somehow. Perhaps they still have to do their manual entry thereafter I'm not sure. I also wish that there was a way to find a partnership with a mail delivery service that would allow for outgoing paper thank you letters and newsletters. This would save a lot of messing around internally although we do appreciate being able to see what we want in the thank you letters I write them then they go to my boss who has to review and print and sign them and I'm not sure if there could be a real low cost worker on for this that still gets them a paper letter in the mail for both gratitude and receipting etc. A few ideas that I like that are not necessarily negative I would love to have a regular chance to meet with other Grant writers and fundraisers via teams or zoom to discuss the challenges we face and how we navigate obstacles. I am suggesting this because I am getting the opportunity to do this through procurement Express and it's really helping me to come up with some solutions and to be able to share ideas. This might help me to gain some understanding of what I might be able to use Network for good for besides just documentation which we retain internally. If I could do some really cool things with it that help our organization that would be amazing. I just don't know the system as well as I could and it's hard for me to understand what benefits there might be beyond documentation so far. I would also love some tools like a database so grant opportunities perhaps and a way to sort which ones we applied for which ones we receive money from which ones are outstanding duty it's an amounts all of that but I know that's asking a lot haha

### "Easy to manage donors from Network For Good!"

December 5, 2025

5.0

One of the most valuable aspects is the integrated communication tools. Being able to create email campaigns, segment donor lists, and track engagement within the same system saves significant time. The SmartAsk and guided fundraising resources are also helpful for organizations without dedicated development staff.

Pros

Network for Good offers a donor management system that is intuitive, accessible, and well-suited for small to mid-sized nonprofits looking to streamline their fundraising and stewardship efforts. The platform shines in its simplicity—most features are easy to navigate, even for staff members who are not tech-savvy. The clean interface makes common tasks like entering donations, pulling donor histories, and sending acknowledgments straightforward.

Cons

the system does have limitations. Reporting is adequate for basic needs but can feel restrictive for organizations that require deeper analytics or more customizable data exports. Some workflows—such as batch data entry or managing complex multi-fund designations—could be more efficient. Additionally, while customer support is responsive, certain advanced questions sometimes require multiple follow-ups.

### "Many High Praises for Bonterra Network for Good"

November 27, 2025

5.0

Overall, I've had a great experience with in my role. It has definitely streamlined many of the tasks I perform. It has encouraged me to stretch my creativity, as the software makes it quicker to do the work I have and frees up time for me to think outside of the box.

Pros

I love that is a one-stop shop for everything I need when it comes to fundraising and communicating with donors. It is very simple to create segments for emails and texts. Donors report having an easy time making card payments and the system auto-generates a customizable receipt. Reports are easy to pull from the software and easy to export. Data is even more quantitative with the use of Que, their new built-in fundraising coach.

Cons

could be better with automating tasks. As a small non-profit with a small staff, sometimes it would be beneficial to have mundane tasks set to run on their own. Our organization has also been interested in creating donor journeys, but the software does not support the automation necessary to make that happen, so we've been having to manually perform all of the tracking and communication. However, they've been steadily upgrading and expanding what the software can do, and I'm confident that more automation will be introduced in the future.

### "Network for Good and easy to use :)"

December 1, 2025

5.0

I truly love the whole experience with . I also like to see the continuous advancement and new products to help us raise more money for our causes

Pros

Really easy to work with and the ability to keep track of all donation in one place is perfect for what my charitable foundation needs. I also love the event and auction components , makes organizing and tracking a fundraiser super easy

Cons

Contact levels dictating the price levels for my foundation. I feel that increasing the yearly membership at 501 contacts is too low and forces me to delete contacts each year.

### "Great Diversity of Features!"

December 1, 2025

5.0

It seems to be a great fit for many purposes (newsletters, email blasts, fundraising, etc.) We're trying to set up our volunteer sign-up options through NFG as well, but haven't gotten there quite yet!

Pros

The ease and intuitive nature of creating our newsletters! I find the layout options and possible inclusions very valuable. Once you use the system once, it clicks!

Cons

It takes a longer than usual amount of time to login. I'm nitpicking. I know we're running into a few snafus with getting our volunteer sign-up and staff sign-up options transferred over, but I'm not sure the issue as I'm not the one working on it.

December 1, 2025

4.0

Pros

The customer support is amazing. It is so nice how easy and quick it is to get help whenever I need it. The system is very user friendly and easy to use, which is rare to find.

Cons

I wish there were more features in donor records like event history and address/phone history. If you want these additional details, you must put it in the donor notes... which isn't ideal. Also if someone wants to unsubscribe from communications, like receiving fundraising emails, you must unsubscribe to all emails. I wish you could be more specific about communication preferences. If we could get these additional tools, this would be my favorite CRM.

August 16, 2024

5.0

When I first obtain NFG services I was met by a friendly staff and the experts were able to help me navigate through work processes. Now when I call there is chat and other features that takes you to reporting to take extremely longer than normal.

Pros

Prior to switch from NFG to this Customer Service was direct.

Cons

Not able to speak to a live representative right away. Longer wait times.

We LOVE Network for Good! It has simplifed things by putting data all in one place! No more moving data from the event reservation platform, the credit card processor, and the newsletter service! And the platform is easy to use and generates great-looking newsletters.

February 5, 2024

Our experience has been great from onboarding until today. All staff members were able to figure out Bonterra with little to no questions from their moment of first log-in. Questions were answered as needed. No complaints.

Pros

We love this CRM. It is so much more than we expected. We are now moving more and more of our functions onto the platform. It has been user-friendly from the start and, as they add more features, it gets even better. We believe that Bonterra will be the software that is used most often now matter what the position in our organization.

Cons

We've used it for five years now and have had a good overall experience so far. One of our staff recently left who did most donation processing, and so it will be interesting to see if the support and training from Bonterra Guided Fundraising is strong.

Pros

The ability to set up various fundraising campaigns as needed. Also, gifts via credit card are easy to process, and the proceeds are always on time.

Cons

I wish it offered more read-only report options instead of importing data via csv files.

From the customer service, onboarding and plug and play nature of this product, I can’t say enough about it.

Pros

It’s the perfect merger of a development system and communications platform for a small to midsize nonprofit. I have been a customer since 2016 and have brought BGF to two nonprofits and have recommended to several colleagues who were looking for an easy, accessible solution for their nonprofits.

Cons

I loved the data services plan which is being phased out and do hope there is a replacement for it soon.

We spent several years as an organization using Network for Good/Bonterra Guided Fundraising as our CRM, and enjoyed the experience other than the high costs. It enabled us to grow our email list and donor database while creating personal touchpoints for each contact.

Pros

I appreciated the robust filter options and the ease of navigation on the donation tracking page.

Cons

The cost became prohibitively high for our organization, causing us to transition to a different platform.

### "Great customer service, but conversion is a time-consuming pain."

July 10, 2017

3.0

At this time, we haven't been using Salsa CRM long enough to record any marked benefit. We're still in the problem-solving phase of post-conversion. As the Development Director, I did receive an immense benefit from sifting through the 2.5 million data fields from our conversion templates, however. I now have intimate knowledge of our constituents and our data that I didn't have before. It's given me a better view of our donor base which has allowed for the placement of fundraising strategies. If CRM and Engage would ever interphase properly, Salsa could probably make my life a lot easier. But right now, it makes it more difficult.

Pros

Customer service is awesome. I appreciate that I can call and get help instead of wading through hours of online instruction videos. Everyone I've encountered has been helpful and knowledgeable. I appreciate the ability to categorize constituents into groups. It's proven very helpful on directing messaging to appropriate constituents.

Cons

Frequently used items, such as notes and address and phone edits, aren't where one would think they would be. When learning the system, it causes a lot of frustration trying to find things. Also, there are lots of drop down menus without explanations on how each category affects the larger picture. For example, under "Edit Address," there is place to check is the address is "Home," "Business," or "Primary." (You can check more than one.) Then across from that, there's a drop down menu titled "Reason." No explanation of what this category means. The choices are "All Correspondence," "Bad Address," "Non-Solicitations Only," "Primary Address," or "Solicitations Only." How does this relate to the "Preferred Contact" drop down found under "Constituent Information" which also features "Solicitations Only" and "Non-Solicitations Only"? Isn't that overkill? What's the logic behind that? It would be nice if there was a printed user's guide. Sure, there's all sorts of information online to sift through, but who has time to watch videos? Give me a searchable .PDF with general instructions that include an overview of the drop down menu choices and their best uses. Finally, conversion is NOT easy. You get what you pay for. We paid for the basic conversion, and I had to manually process over 2.5 million data fields from our previous software to Salsa's templates. It took me 6 weeks. We're still waiting for Salsa CRM and Engage to interphase properly 2 months later.

Donna - Thank you for your thorough review. We encourage you to provide feedback directly to Salsa as we do incorporate our clients' enhancement requests into future releases. Our Director of Customer Support will be reaching out to you directly to address some of your specific issues. Regarding documentation, we do have an online user's guide that you can download if you prefer printed materials. You can also use our online knowledge base which is searchable by topic. Also, all Salsa customers now have access to Salsa Scholars, our brand new e-Learning platform. It's self-paced interactive learning for both Salsa Engage and Salsa CRM and the purpose built integration which we continue to enhance. In the latest release (expected to be in production by the end of July 2017), you will see enhancements to the integration which were made based on the feedback of our active user community. Please contact Customer Support if you need access to any of the tools listed.

### "Network for Good is the Perfect Solution for Small Nonprofits!"

June 25, 2021

5.0

Network for Good is AMAZING. I am 100% satisfied with the product, the support, and the value it offers my non-profit. It was one of the best decisions that I have made to improve my outreach and fundraising efforts.

Pros

I LOVE the product and would not be able to function without it. I used to chase Excel sheets and lack donor giving history. Now, it is easy to track giving and manage campaigns. The feature I like most is the ability to create a custom video for those that support my program. The feedback I have received is very positive. The other thing that I enjoy is that the company actually makes me feel that they care about my success. Anytime I have had questions, they have been very responsive and helpful. That type of customer service is hard to come by in today's marketplace.

Cons

The initial transfer of data was a bit overwhelming. It has taken me a year to merge duplicate files, but that is a minor issue. My nonprofit has been around for 25 years when I decided to go with Network for Good. We had many different data sheets and sources. That contributed to the difficulty of the initial data transfer. On the upside, the data upload process was so simple that I was able to figure it out in minutes. Please keep in mind that Network for Good will do the transfer for you, so you don't have to become an expert if you do not want to.

Reason for choosing Bonterra Network for Good

Network for Good allowed me to launch direct mail campaigns as well as send customized videos to donors. These tools were incredibly powerful to me. I also did not need to learn a complicated system. Network for Good is very simple to use.

### "Network for Good "

September 21, 2022

4.0

Our overall experience with Network for Good is very positive. We usually send a physical newsletter out in summer, but we just had too much on our plate this summer. Network for Good allowed us to make the decision to pivot and I was able to put together an email blast in far less time and without the expense of the mailing.

Pros

In my role as executive director I like to know a lot of metrics. Network for Good provides a wide range of reporting options allowing me to hone in on exactly what I am looking for. I also appreciate that I can create my own tasks, enter notes on recent donor interactions and even upload images of thank you notes I have sent to donors. This is especially helpful before I make the next contact. I can look up the note and be reminded that I spoke to a donor and they told me they have 3 cats. The next time I call them I can say, "oh, and how are the cats doing." It really helps to personalize and tailor the interaction.

Cons

I am disappointed that to fully utilize all of the new additional features we have to pay for the elite version. It is cost prohibitive for us as a small animal shelter on a limited budget. We recently mapped our Network for Good with Quickbooks online. This has reduced a lot of redundancy, but a con is that I lose visibility to some detail so still have to go into both systems if I need to see the detail.
