Most fundraising vendors I've worked with feel very "salesy". Not Bloomerang. The company is made up of genuinely good people who honestly care about improving nonprofits' relationships with donors and helping them reach fundraising goals. I've been a customer for over 10 years and their culture continues to be this way. I also love how much time I save - other CRMs require a lot of time to clean up and input data; with Bloomerang I am able to spend more time actually raising money.
Pros
The reporting meets all our needs, data is easy to import and read, customer service and tutorial videos and articles are on point, and the company offers continuing education courses on fundraising strategies.
Cons
I've converted to Bloomerang from other CRMs at three different organizations now. Whatever cons they are, they are very minimal, and Bloomerang is constantly improving its system. Any major cons I could think of in the past have been resolved through upgrades they've done over the years. If I ever do have an issue, they are extremely open to feedback and will add my concerns to their list of features to improve.
Reasons for Choosing Bloomerang
First switch was 11 years ago. I have been at two other organizations since then and both have converted to Bloomerang.Reasons for Switching to Bloomerang
It's easy-to-use and read interface and its focus on donor stewardship and retention strategies.

Customer Support is HANDS DOWN the best.

Wonderful. That is all.
Wonderful. That is all.
Pros
I am a sole user of our agency's donor/constituent software. I'm stubborn and like to try to figure things out before asking for help, BUT Bloomerang's customer service team is outstanding. I've never been on hold or had to wait long at all for support. Plus, you get a real person that also helps you implement things that come about during your conversation. There are also many avenues you can contact them. AND, their webinars with other community partners are always so insightful, and fun!
Cons
I'm hoping that we can, down the line, make online donation forms--for general donations and events--a little more visually inviting (easier to read). Also, more like a menu with a shopping cart for check out, instead of working with an outside vendor that integrates with Bloomerang.

Pros
Easy to migrate our database to Bloomerang. Basic features work well.
Cons
The forms are extremely difficult to embed on your website and look terrible. They advised us to hire a web developer, but we worked with two and they could not work with the forms. Very disappointing as 95 % of our donations are online. Overall the software is clunky and needs to be updated. Customer service was terrible.

Hard to Use and Expensive
Reviewed on 2024/03/20
Pros
I liked that there was an easy way to assign tasks to users.
Cons
The system was very clunky and not intuitive. It was expensive for us to keep bad data and we ended up switching to a platform that offered everything that Bloomerang did for less.
