Why your source of truth may also be a source of frustration

In all likelihood, the CRM you rely on today was built primarily to store info from business cards and proposals—NOT to keep you connected with donors, derive insights from unstructured data, or enhance the productivity of your frontline fundraisers.

Your CRM was made for sales reps not advancement services teams

As a result, your job gets exponentially harder every time another tool gets added to the tech stack.

Siloed point solutions

You have a neverending number of point solutions to integrate; teams spend time moving data from one app to the next.

Missing insights

Your CRM only knows structured data—what about visits per trip, gift officer email open rates, or recurring gift likelihood?

Endless ad hoc requests

Because only you know how to coax reports from your CRM, you end up fielding endless one-off asks from your team.

You need a secure and seamless way to sync constituent, event, and gift data

Whether you’re pulling constituent lists for annual giving appeals or stewardship, updating major gift portfolios, or supplying the business office and board of trustees with timely and accurate reporting—you need a secure and seamless way to get data into your system of record. Period.

I could have written queries in Raiser’s Edge for months to try to compile that report—and we had it in 24 hours from GiveCampus.

The reconciliation in GiveCampus has been bulletproof for us. Everything matches to the penny.

Mario Guevara

Assistant Vice President of Advancement Services at NYU

Last year [the team] spent more than two weeks processing gifts and this year they were done in two or three days. That was a big step for us, especially when you consider the huge volume of gifts that came in on our recent Giving Day.

I’ve always felt like GiveCampus is a platform that was built by people who’ve done the job, and it shows in the backend.
