The information we now have available is incredible. Driven is easy to use and works for our team and organization.

Pros

Driven is a game changer for our organization. Implementation was straight-forward, with plenty of support. We continue to learn new ways to use the database and make the most of all of the features.

Cons

Honestly, when something isn't working, the team at Driven are fantastic in helping support to either educate our team or make changes.

The experience with donor engine so far has been great. Most importantly they are open to listening how we as the end user are using the product and then impletmented updates and upgrades to enhance the system. The customer service has been wonderful and they have been very responsive. We are still learning and working out how best to utilize certain features but overall it has been a great experience.

Pros

Ease of use and that it is fairly intuitive. We are a work in progress but the Team at Donor Driven has been great to work with.

Cons

Still learning how to do a lot in the System. We have some data clean up to do from our old system. Right now and I know it is an upgrade that is coming is the ability to email directly from the system.

[Salesforce Sales Cloud](https://www.capterra.com/p/61368/Salesforce/)

Reasons for choosing Donor Driven

The promise of the customer service and support was a main criteria for us. I have personally have worked with Blackbaud Raiser's Edge and like their platform but the price was far to expensive and being a smaller charity I knew we would not get the kind of support we needed. Donor Driven has been very responsive and helpful and for an oranization of our size this is important as we do not have in-house IT.

The best benefit of using donor engine is that tax receipting has become a breeze.

Pros

What I like most about Donor Engine is that it is easy to figure out and use and that features can be customized.

Cons

Something that could be improved: I should be able to organize(arrange) my batch entries by 'date of donation' regardless of when each entire (row) was made/added.

We were attempting to pull in all aspects of our 3 existing donation & volunteer systems into one platform. We have successfully pulled together 2 of the 3 programs thanks to Donor Engine with one more to go in the future!

Pros

The software is very user friendly, we ran into some issues with pulling in our legacy data because it was in a very old desktop versioned program. The staff at Donor Engine, were super helpful, very patient, they went above and beyond to help us pull and view our data the way we wanted it to into their software. The developers were always very receptive to our recommendations on what would make the software better and added new features based on our feedback. If you have the need for a database they are definitely the software to go to!

Cons

We had a lot of issues pulling in our legacy data but that was only because our system was almost 10 yrs old that we were pulling it in from. The staff at Donor Engine were very diligent and helpful in supporting us through this.

Reasons for choosing Donor Driven

We chose Donor Engine as it offered more of the options and features that we were looking for and the pricing while not the lowest we looked at was very reasonable for what we would be getting.

Now that we are fully integrated we are enjoying all the aspects of this system: event registration, membership tracking, marketing and emailing our constituents and of course a donor database. All features are in this one product, which has made it cost effective as well as efficient. Customer service is amazing with very fast response time

Pros

We are a unique non-profit. We are a member organization that also holds fundraising events for our grant-making functions. We have a medium sized database, but we were not tracking donations efficiently. We found everything we needed to solve not only our DB issues, but also an all in one hub for almost everything that we do. Loved the customization that we could have with this product. The developers never said no to any request that we made! It is easy to use and improvements keep coming.

Cons

The integration had more than its share of issues, but mostly because we came from an archaic system, we were new to the CRM world and we have many users that need to pull out different modules for their use.

More than anything else, we appreciate the exceptional support and service provided by the Lifeline Design team.

Pros

The software is user-friendly. It has been custom-designed to meet the unique needs of Habitat for Humanity Ontario Gateway North and yet the complexities are not evident in use. The design is intuitive, streamlined.

Cons

Implementation of the software was more involved than we thought it would be and therefore took more time than we had planned. Although there were a number of small glitches to work through, Lifeline Design was fast to respond to our concerns and enjoyable to work with as we made the necessary tweaks.

Using it five days a week for 40 hours it is hard to define the details because of my comfort with it. It is as close to reliable as technology can be. I think it is a great product, and the company puts a tremendous effort into addressing any hiccups and in continuing to enhance the features and benefits.

Pros

It is easy to navigate. It is well thought out and provides a lot of features to capture beneficial information and to process ministry donations. It is an ongoing/developing program that improves its features and benefits which is great!!

Cons

Not everything is fully activated but it is a process and important needs are met from my vantage point and use.

I truly appreciate working with reprrsentatives and their team at Donor Engine! They are all outstanding in their professionalism, customer service, and teamwork not only within their company but with the clientele as well. They respond to any email/request rather quickly and usually no longer than 24 hours. They are open to ideas and invite you to share them as they value the feedback of their clients. In fact, they have already implemented some of our ideas. They have a system that is both user friendly and very efficient. I truly recommend using Donor Engine and working with representatives and their team!

Pros

I like all the features and that it is both very user friendly and efficient.

Cons

I'm not a very patient person, and there were a couple of times that it was a little slow. Usually it's at a good pace.

Working with Donor Engine, Lifeline Designs has been an amazing experience. I have never worked with a software team that was so interested in creating a product that met all our needs even if they required custom work. The team answered all our questions promptly and at times... several times a day, everyday, to make sure we were getting the most out of the product. They definitely went above and beyond with excellent customer service and knowledgeable input.

Pros

The software works seamlessly with our website. The ease of use for our participants is a welcome change from the system we used before. The software gives us access to the day to day information I need to keep up to date on the financial data required for running our event. The reports designed for retrieving "team" information for our event was easy to access and accurate. With a few clicks I could pull a report for the number and sizes of shirts that needed to be ordered, no more guessing. The software notifies us when we have a duplicate individual and allows us to merge accounts. Very easy to use. Overall, very satisfied with the software.

Cons

The basic financial reports provided with the software did not contain enough detail for our specific use. Although, the rep at Lifeline Designs and his team went right to work to create what we required.
