### "Helps save time, streamline communications within a user-friendly interface"

April 17, 2018

4.0

Saves time by automating communications and making most necessary reports easily accessible.

Pros

Most features are user-friendly on the back-end, and it saves a significant amount of time to be able to automate retention/reminder emails to current and past participants. Customer support is generally quick to help resolve any trouble.

Cons

Certain features cannot be modified and while basic features are user-friendly, some more advanced features are complicated to access and require many steps to integrate.

### "Good P2P Fundraising software"

February 5, 2018

4.0

Pros

Donor Drive makes it simple to manage multiple P2P fundraising events at once. The best feature was being able to copy an event to easily set up another one just like it. The developers were great at listing to feedback and making changes.

Cons

Not having the ability to change the donor name. Sometimes a donor uses a credit card but wants to be recognized as a couple and not the name of the card. I believe the developers were looking into changing this.

The DonorDrive team truly listens to its consumers and is constantly rolling out product updates and adding features that they have created in direct response to consumer feedback.

### "impossible to get their dev team to do anything"

April 18, 2018

4.0

They process the money for us.

Pros

easy to create api end points to pull data from, i can go in and create a list of the data i want and have access to it.

Cons

Getting api's to pull efficiently is like pulling teeth. The support team often takes months to figure out how to fix an issue.

### "I've been using Donor Drive for 3 years and it's been a pretty good experience."

April 17, 2018

4.0

Pros

Simple to learn and it does what the company needs it to. The support team is always helpful and quick to respond to issues.

Cons

You are pretty limited when it comes to customization options sometimes. It would be nice to have more themes and layouts to choose from.

### "Has potential to be great! "

April 17, 2018

4.0

Helps us utilize and execute events from our regular website. Tracking and data are available when you figure out how to even get to the information. Could be a great program with a little work on mainstreaming things.

Pros

Love that we can utilize our pages for specific events and add characters like a thermometer, recreate events from the previous year to mainstream things, data tracking and clientele information.

Cons

The software is very difficult and confusing to use - especially when starting out or using it for minimal events. Could be simplified and tabs made more clear. Would love to see an email function to send notifications about our events. It is very pricey for what we use it for.

### "Great design capabilities. Required some arounds for unique events, but lots of functionality."

April 23, 2018

4.0

Great looking site with modern, dynamic feel. Simple integration of donor data into display results.

Pros

Good design, modern feel, nice responsive optimization. The integration of data throughout the various parts of the platform is excellent, offering some good cross-reference and dynamic display with donors/participants, goals reached, etc.

Cons

Although there is much functionality and variety within the platform, there are alos many constraints. There were few ways to truly customize the event structure, the ticket sales, or the display of some data/information throughout.

### "Not a fan of this database. "

April 17, 2018

2.0

N/A

Pros

Participants can sign up more than one person at a time. You can schedule reports to be pulled on a regular basis.

Cons

Reports take too long to download at times. (Former database the reports were instantaneous.) Constantly having to re-log in when away for 15 min. Emails that go to participants - sponsor logos look bad because they are too scrunched together (right on top of eachother). I had to develop a "picture" with my sponsor logos so my eCRM person could put at bottom of email, otherwise, she could not get the logos to be spaced properly. My eCRM person also cannot get the emails to be single spaced so there is a lot of wasted space. On front of database where it has Event Insights, Participants, Companies, Teams and Transactions; wish there would also be Sponsors and Donors that you can click on.

### "When we our organization decided on DonorDrive it was at the forefront of peer to peer technology."

April 17, 2018

4.0

Pros

There is definitely an ease of use for event participants. It is easy for them to use the system, send emails and other updates. The donation process is also streamlined which is important. We definitely want as few barriers as possible between our donors and their ability to give.

Cons

There are limitations to the design aesthetic for our our Affiliates. The initial set up for Affiliates, our back end users can be a bit difficult at times. The cost for DonorDrive is definitely higher than some of their competitors.
