We've had a very good experience and things have been working smoothly for us. During our initial ramp up, there were some issues and limitations that we surfaced, but the DonorDock team was very prompt and supportive in helpful resolve things. Very pleased with our interactions.

Pros

DonorDock provides an easy-to-use product that nicely meets the needs of our small non-profit. We have just over 2,000 contacts in our database, some with email addresses and some only with U.S. mail contact info. We manage donations, email newsletters, etc. The integration with Stripe has worked seamlessly. We like the fact that this is an active project with improvements and new features continuing to be added. We also have had very good luck with their Support. Prompt and helpful. The reporting features also provide a lot of flexibility and work well.

Cons

The features for creating various communications, whether email or .pdf, can be fairly limited and simplistic. Better than some, but certainly that's not a core strength of DonorDock. And there seem to be some database fields that we don't have access to or are not visible in a data dump. But in general, these are rather minor things that don't overshadow the many positives.

Robust, Cheap, and Easy

Reviewed on 19/12/2023

Pros

I like how much Donor Dock can do, the fact that they don't raise our price for having a big database (one price no matter how big) and that it includes email marketing, which saves us money on having a separate emailer.

Cons

I wish that the integration between donor lists and marketing lists were a bit smoother. As well, I wish that I could change the assigned member for donors more easily, merge contacts more smoothly, or have contacts that have no assigned member.

Response from Donordock

Hi Sky, thanks for your review of DonorDock. We're glad that DonorDock has helped you organize your contacts.

You mentioned that you're just getting started with DonorDock - We would love to share some resources for helping with that. Feel free to attend one of our regularly scheduled live trainings, watch an on demand video training course, visit our knowledge base, or chat with the support team. While starting to use a new software usually involves some learning, we hope these resources will make that learning as easy as possible, and we hope one of these options will help you as you learn! Thanks for your review!

It's so much easier to use than any other donor management system I've tried. It's also the cheapest. The team is super friendly too, so anytime we have questions, you're taken care of immediately.

Pros

Everything is very intuitive to figure out, so I don't have to spend any time training how to do something new. It's simple, easy, and includes a newsletter option so I could get rid of that additional expense.

Cons

Honestly, nothing. They are the greatest to work with so if you ever come across a functionality you wish it had, you simply need to let them know and they make it happen.

DonorDock for Small Nonprofit

DonorDock is regularly evaluating its platform and making updates, to include engaging user feedback. Customer service is quick, responsive and helpful.Data is a powerful tool and a tool that small nonprofits deserve to have too and not at outrageous costs. DonorDock has provided us a centralized platform for collecting, organizing, and analyzing crucial data. By capturing and analyzing data on donors, fundraising campaigns, and program outcomes, we are gaining more insights into our fundraising efforts. This data-driven approach enables us to identify areas for improvement and make informed decisions.We finally feel like we are actually in the game to manage fundraising goals rather than trying to understand dozens of spreadsheets that don't talk to each other in ways that we really needed!

Pros

Implementing DonorDock for us was a game-changer. DonorDock offers a multitude of benefits that streamline operations, enhance fundraising efforts, and foster stronger relationships with donors. By leveraging the power of a CRM, we have optimized our efficiency, increased our impact, and are achieving long-term sustainability in the work that we do.

Cons

The only thing that we have found that we are missing is a way to connect events to DonorDock, such as a way to sell tickets for fundraisers and track them through DonorDock vs. setting up a separate process for this and having to input data into the system for each ticket sold.

Alternatives Considered

Kindful, Classy, DonorPerfect and Little Green Light

Reasons for Switching to DonorDock

It had everything we needed. DonorDock didn't try to sell us on things we didn't need, especially being a small nonprofit, some functionality just doesn't make sense for us to have. DonorDock's costs were reasonable and the customer service has been great along the entire process. We didn't feel like we were getting a sales-pitch or pushed into using DonorDock which was much appreciated during the process.

The affordable all in one solution to Donor Engagement and Management

Reviewed on 08/06/2023

Pros

The most helpful thing about Donordock is how affordable it is with all of its amazing features. I was able to cancel our constant contact subscription and payment processor and streamline everything into Donordock which uses Stripe. This has saved our Non-Profit a lot of money and has offered better ways to engage with our donors than our previous CRM which didn't even recognize if we had a new donor.

Cons

I dislike the profile page available to our donors. I wish Donordock had a login page for all donors, not just monthly donors, where they could have their payment information memorized, accessible to change, and contribution statements to view.

Overall the experience with DonorDock has been great. This mostly comes from the fact that they have the best service out there. Anytime we need to figure something out, they are there.

Pros

DonorDock really is different from all our donor CRM tools. Not only is their interface very intuitive and doesn't need excess training, but they are consistently making great improvements (using feedback from the community), and their service level is unmatched. Ultimately, it does everything we need it to in a simple solution for a great price. I have encouraged many to make the switch.

Cons

DonorDock does have limitations on customization. Everything that we need from the tool is there, but if you get very granular with your donor information points, there may be missing areas. You can add different custom options to support these needs, but it may become excessive if you do it a lot. I would also like better automated workflows, but I have accomplished what I need by using third-party-linked solutions.

Reasons for Choosing DonorDock

The cost, lack of service from eTapestry, and complete different usability of the two products made it an easy choice.

We love DonorDock!

Reviewed on 10/02/2023

Pros

We love how easy it is to use the software. Other software systems we've used have taken days if not weeks to know how to do the most basic things and DonorDock was so easy to navigate. We are able to tailor our communications to our donors with the help of our marketing team and it looks just like we sent the email individually. The online giving pages are easy to set up and modify as needed.

Cons

There are some aspects of the software that I wish it had. For example: it would be nice to have a way to toggle between a primary address and a secondary address so we aren't having to manually manipulate a mailing list when some of our donors are down south for the winter; it would be nice to have the ability to run a report of total giving by year to be compared to other years, right now we pull a list for each year separately, merge them together and then make it all coherent it's very cumbersome.

Pros

We utilize DonorDock daily to manage multiple aspects of our organization. We track participant information including registration, program participation and correspondence. We also track our donors and sponsor's information along with their donations, correspondence, giving receipts, and contribution statements. The ease of having all the information in one place and having the ability to sort, categorize, badge and run multiple reports allows us to analyze a lot of information easily.

Cons

I think it would be helpful to be able to customize the fields in the contacts information. It is a lengthy form that we don't utilize as an organization well.
