Top-rated for **Likelihood to recommend**. ----- ## Overview ### Key benefits of NationBuilder • A fully integrated supporter database (CRM) updates automatically with every interaction — email opens, donations, event RSVPs, and advocacy actions — with custom fields and permission sets so teams track exactly the data their work depends on and control who can see it. • Build mobile-responsive websites and ready-made donation and action pages without code, so supporters can give, sign up, or take action in a flow that stays connected to their database profile. • Send unlimited email blasts and build drip automations with A/B testing, segmenting and personalizing by any field in the database — included on every plan, with no per-send fees. • Launch petitions and advocacy actions, and use ActionButton to spin up shareable quizzes, polls, and campaigns; every action a supporter takes flows straight into their profile, with tags and point people assigned automatically. • Coordinate field operations with address geocoding, turf cutting, autodistricting, and walk and call sheets — purpose-built for canvassing and phone banking at campaign scale. • Manage members and recurring memberships with tiered membership types, automated renewals, and member-only access — useful for associations, unions, and alumni organizations running their public site and membership on one system. • Process one-time and recurring donations with built-in payment processing, turning supporters into donors without bolting on a separate fundraising tool. • Extend the platform with integrations like Zapier, Google Analytics, WordPress, CallHub, and Ecanvasser, plus a developer API and single sign-on on higher tiers — backed by built-in privacy and data-compliance controls to help you meet your obligations and earn supporter trust. ## Quick Stats & Ratings | Metric | Rating | Detail | | **Overall** | **3.8/5** | 44 Reviews | | Ease of Use | 3.6/5 | Based on overall reviews | | Customer Support | 3.8/5 | Based on overall reviews | | Value for Money | 3.9/5 | Based on overall reviews | | Features | 3.8/5 | Based on overall reviews | | Recommendation percentage | 70% | (7/10 Likelihood to recommend) | ## About the vendor - **Company**: NationBuilder - **Location**: Los Angeles, US - **Founded**: 2009 ## Commercial Context - **Starting Price**: US$34,00 - **Pricing model**: Flat Rate (Free Trial) - **Pricing Details**: Monthly plans are based on people database size and optional feature add-ons.

Lots of functionality for basic campaigns as well as advance voter outreach > > **Cons**: Some functionality does not necessarily add to the tool. More automation (eblasts specifically) would take the tool to the next level ----- ### "Easy to Get Started" — 5.0/5 > **John** | *10 January 2022* | Government Relations | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: For someone just beginning a campaign or just moving to a voter relations management platform, NationBuilder is a great way to start. The system has many, many features; but you don't need to use all of them right away. In addition, if you start with a small number of records (people in your data base) NationBuilder is quite inexpensive\! > > **Cons**: If I want to canvass door-to-door recording data on my phone, I'd need to link my NationBuilder data to a third party app. Otherwise, NationBuilder has all the features I need\! > > I have used NationBuilder for over 10 years, on several campaigns. The product is highly reliable and the user support is great. ----- ### "Nice Ideas That Make a Mess" — 3.0/5 > **Janae** | *07 May 2021* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: All of the core features of a CRM are there and functional, and I especially like that you can identify profiles as either people or organizations, a great feature when tracking contacts for partnerships and coalitions. There's a low learning curve for using the most basic elements of contact files and lists. > > **Cons**: NationBuilder has a social feature to pull in any contact that interacts with you on social media. This is a nice idea in theory, but ended up creating a massive mess in the database, with thousands of duplicate contacts and/or contacts with no real contact information beyond the social media handle. This may be effective for a larger team with staff capacity to comb through information like this, but for a small nonprofit it was just too much. > > Individual reps we worked with were nice enough, but there's a weird culture around their \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] -- emails inviting us to his talks often sounded like invitations to church. Ultimately, between the odd culture and the mess of the social profiles, we ended up switching to a different software. ----- ### "Communicate with all your members easily" — 5.0/5 > **Jim** | *08 February 2022* | Political Organization | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is so easy to edit and update. Every time I need to create new information or change the Menu, it was no problem. The website always supported our club. > > **Cons**: After a couple of years there were so many pages that it is a little tricky to find a specific page to update. > > NationBuilder has helped every time I needed to know how to do something. I am very happy with the product. ----- ### "Not a great donor database" — 4.0/5 > **Amy** | *03 January 2020* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like having my website, email and donor info integrated into one place. It is an easy system to learn and the video tutorials are helpful, so it's easy to bring new members onto the team. > > **Cons**: It isn't a superior product for any of its functions, particularly the donor database functionality. It is hard to get relevant info out of it to properly steward donors. > > Nation Builder has been an easy way for us to manage our website, send out communications, and store donor information. We do not have an IT person, and with NB we really haven't needed one, as it's easy to fix any problems that come up. ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.za.com/software/103239/nationbuilder?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.za.com/software/103239/nationbuilder) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
