Very additive. > > **Cons**: It is tough to get quality customer service. ----- ### "Love the product--wish we could afford it\!" — 5.0/5 > **Margie** | *10 February 2025* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Etapestry was very user friendly and simple to learn. All the integrations with other platforms was especially helpful. > > **Cons**: They kept raising the prices for different services. > > Overall, it is a great product. Unfortunately, it became a little too pricey for us. ----- ### "Good for Database Management, Poor Communications Tools" — 3.0/5 > **Amber** | *14 November 2016* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 4.0/10 > > **Pros**: Entire system is very easy to learn no matter the experience level Managing donor records and online gifts is very easy Reporting and query tools are easy to use even for those without a lot of experience building queries clean, user-friendly interface excellent customer support simple data entry \& gift processing online giving pages import gifts directly to database, helping teams avoid manual entry \& the pages can be reskinned to match your website design easy to mass import records > > **Cons**: expensive, especially having to pay for Advanced emails \& paying an hourly fee for minor changes eTapestry support must be requested for an array of minor tweaks to giving pages for example and it usually takes several days to up to 2 weeks to get changes finished communications templates are inflexible and look extremely dated, often the preview of a communication you see on your screen is not how it looks at delivery, very limited analytics tools and delivery/testing options as far as I know there is no ability to export from eTapestry to QuickBooks which means gift processing team must reenter gifts manually into QuickBooks while it has the ability to provide personal fundraising pages, they are highly inflexible and the layouts look so dated they are almost not worth using > > I have been working in communications and development for non-profit organizations for more than 15 years. I have been using eTapestry for 2 years. I have experience with a variety of other donor management tools including Blackbaud's The Raiser's Edge. eTapestry is strong in regard to contact management, processing online gifts, and the reporting/query tools. The expense as well as the email communications and analytics are where it falls short. ----- ### "Great for the price" — 4.0/5 > **Narelle** | *15 July 2020* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: The ability to have recurring donors processed automatically and securly is very important and Etapestry delivered this. The program is able to track donations to specific projects and fundraising programs. Handles EOFY receipts well. > > **Cons**: It was difficult sometimes to get the information you required out of the program without specific training. > > The software delivered what we needed it to and was sufficient for our requirements. ----- ### "eTapestry great service\!" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *15 February 2019* | Philanthropy | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love the ease of control over data queries compared to other database services I have used\! > > **Cons**: When I first started using this service, some things were not intuitive, especially after having gotten used to other database services. ----- Page: 1 / 10\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.za.com/software/103349/etapestry?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.za.com/software/103349/etapestry) ## 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 | | ----- ## Structured Data
