Executive Director Non-Profit Organization Management ### "Thrilled with this versatile and easy to use CRM" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 December 18, 2025 Transferring data was seamless, with excellent guidance provided by LGL. Overall, I couldn't be happier that I made the switch from DonorPerfect. Pros We switched from using DonorPerfect. Little Green Light is very affordable (about 1/3 the cost!) even for tiny nonprofits like ours. It's easy to use, features great reports (including many available at all times on the dashboard), with lots of flexibility. LGL also has an excellent knowledgebase, live remote Q&A sessions, and a rapid response email help line. Cons The interface is plain vanilla, with very few visual clues to distinguish one screen from another. But I'm nit picking. Switched from [DonorPerfect](https://www.capterra.com/p/2698/DonorPerfect-Fundraising-Software/) We found DonorPerfect's interface to be clunky. It has the look and feel of an outdated and non-intuitive interface. Considering our difficulty in learning and using DP, it was also quite pricey. Finally, DP's card processor, SafeSave, a subsidiary, insisted we monitor and improve our website for PCI compliance. This, despite the fact that our site never handles or sees credit card information. At first, we were provided with free monitoring and some technical support to help our very new and small nonprofit comply. However, in any given month that our website failed their test, we were essentially fined. And just before we left DP, we were informed that we needed to start paying for this service too.

AP Anthony P. Advancement Coordinator Civic & Social Organization ### "Simply the best donor database software!" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 August 28, 2025 I am the Advancement Coordinator for our organization. It provides me with a wealth of information that enables me to assess our fundraising activity, generate a variety of reports for our Board, and assists us organizing and communicating with our volunteer constituency. Pros It is by far, the most user-friendly CRM software that I've used. It makes the job of organizing and maintaining a donor database extremely easy. It synchs beautifully with Quick Books, making the gift entry process very easy. Customer support is superb. Finally, it is a great value for the money - worth every penny, uh, sorry, dollar. Cons I can't think of anything that I don't like about LGL. In five years of using it, I haven't had one negative experience. Alternatives considered [Blackbaud eTapestry](https://www.capterra.com/p/29170/eTapestry/) Reasons for choosing Little Green Light LGL is a great value, which for our small not-for-profit organization, was important.

Treasurer Entertainment ### "If you work for a non-profit, this software is for you." 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 July 6, 2025 It's efficient, easy to learn, and has an extensive knowledge base that seems to cover EVERYthing. It's customizable, can integrate with a lot of programs and services, and can even send out thank-you messages to donors. Pros It works smoothly, it's well-designed, and it covers aspects of donor management that I didn't know existed. Cons I can't think of anything that it lacks or that needs any improvement. Like the saying goes: it just works. Review source Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site.

Pros Easy to use, great for a smaller non-profit budget! I appreciate the tutorials and videos and the Knowledge section Cons I haven't figured out yet how to code a deceased spouse from a file without causing the file to show deceased?

I found it with LGL! Pros LGL is awesome! It's very simple to navigate and cost efficient. Cons I don't have any negative things to say about LGL. It's perfect for our nonprofit donor management.

DJ Devin J. Advancement Coordinator Education Management ### "A Low-cost, powerful tool for smaller and mid-sized organizations" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 4.0 4.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 April 3, 2025 Little Green Light is great, we have rarely had any issues. We use it as our donor database, to generate tax acknowledgement letters, appeal letters for fundraising, and as a source of alumni information for our school. Pros Little Green Light is low-cost and perfectly right-sized for an organization of our size. It is relatively flexible and intuitive, and with the help of 3rd party tools can be easily connected to other software. Cons There are some limitations, and if you aren't able to build integrations that work well then it can pose a challenge to enter gifts. Switched from [Diamond Mind Payment Processing](https://www.capterra.com/p/161740/Diamond-Mind-Payment-Processing/) Increasing cost, clunkiness, and need for more customizable features. Alternatives considered [Blackbaud Raiser's Edge NXT](https://www.capterra.com/p/247647/Blackbaud-Raiser-s-Edge-NXT/) Reasons for choosing Little Green Light Raiser's Edge seemed overkill, it is much more expensive and much less user friendly. The reporting tools look flashy in the way they present them, but require so much configuration to do the things that you want. There is not a lot of customizability with Raiser's Edge compared to Little Green Light. Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort.

Executive Director Non-Profit Organization Management ### "Little Green Light" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 3.0 3.0 Customer Service 2.0 2.0 Likelihood to Recommend 6/10 April 3, 2025 Reasonably good though wish it could be more connectable to other programs Pros It has been a great CRM tool for working with our donors and tracking contributions. Cons Our account wished it had a better intergration with other accounting software. Switched from [DonorSnap](https://www.capterra.com/p/97513/DonorSnap/) CRM features and was of use without multiple extra steps Review source Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site. All submitted reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. JP Jennifer P. Director of Advancement Religious Institutions ### "LGL for long-term solutions" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 4.0 4.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 March 26, 2025 I have been using LGL for many years. It is a robust and functional CRM that is affordable, particularly for small non-profits. I find it to be much better than other platforms and at a fraction of the cost. I would recommend LGL to anyone searching for a user-friendly, cost-effective CRM that has all the features to optimize your advancement operations. Pros I have used LGL for over a decade and have brought the CRM to many nonprofits. The platform is robust and intuitive. It has fantastic functionality and integrates with other services. I can track donor relationships, generate giving metrics, track appeals, and generate communications with ease and accuracy. Cons There is nothing that I dislike, but I would make improvements to the email function. Currently, you cannot schedule emails to be delivered at a specific time, and customizing emails with branding and graphics is challenging. Switched from [Donorbox](https://www.capterra.com/p/156860/Donorbox/) It did not have the functionality that was needed for our organization. Review source Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site. All submitted reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. JS Jake S. Program Manager E-Learning ### "Your Fundraising CRM Must" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 4.0 4.0 Likelihood to Recommend 8/10 March 21, 2025 A great tool for fundraising once you get the basics down! Pros It’s a really great tool for donor/fundraising management. It’s a cam designed specifically for fundraising. Cons It can take a bit to understand the interface. Review source Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site. All submitted reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. MM Melody M. President and Executive Director Non-Profit Organization Management ### "Super Affordable and Stellar Customer Service" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 February 25, 2025 It's been great! Not only am I a consultant that highly recommends this product frequently, but I am also the President/CEO of another non-profit where we use Little Green Light. You just cannot beat the affordability for the full suite of usability provided. Truly haven't found anything better for the smaller to mid-size non-profit. Pros Using and maintaining this database is very intuitive. I've run other systems in the past that required almost a computer science degree to be successful. LGL is so adaptable, very customizable, and their customer support is the best in the business. Cons Gosh, it's hard to think of anything I don't like about Little Green Light. As time goes by they continue to make improvements and always seem to address my current wishes. Not quite sure how they do that but, yay. IF there was anything I could wish for I would ask that the addressee and salutation fields were a little more robust. Adding class years, and in our case degrees, manually opens the door to errors. Would love to have a customizable table that can be pulled into exports. Having a method of batch entry for gifts (other than import) would be a game changer for busier offices. Coded batches help prevent data inconsistencies. Switched from [Blackbaud Raiser's Edge NXT](https://www.capterra.com/p/247647/Blackbaud-Raiser-s-Edge-NXT/) Affordability and ease of use. The customer service is incomparable.
