Salesforce: a useful tool for non profits of all sizes

Reviewed on 16/10/2023

We have really enjoyed using sales force. Having one system to monitor all of our important engagement data is a huge plus. In the past i've worked at non profits that employ a different system for every type of metric, so instead of everything being in one place, you have to login to multiple sites and it takes alot more of my time to gather all the information needed to successfully target a fundraising campaign. This frees up my time to work on more important day to day operations and not have to spend so much time in the office gathering data from different places and putting it together manually.

Pros

My favorite parts of salesforce have to be having a central database where we can store all of our information regarding engagements. From clients, to donors, to volunteers, and even board members. We use it to keep track of all types of information and it allows us to target specific "high value" donors who are more likely to donate based on previous donation history. It makes it very easy for us with just a few clicks to see all the information we need to successfully run a fundraising campaign and get it to the right people.

Cons

It could be a little more intuitive, this may be a byproduct of having so many features. Sometimes it is a little difficult to navigate for people who aren't as familiar with salesforce. Sometimes we get volunteers that prefer to volunteer by assisting with admin tasks. Sometimes we run into issues where generally tech saavy people have trouble navigating and using some of the features in sales force. Again this is probably because it has so many features that are very indepth, not necessarily a bad thing.

It's the best of a terrible product catagory--no such thing as a good CRM, but I would probably switch to hubspot if I had no budget or performance restrictions

Pros

It's the leader, been doing it as long as almost anyone--and being the most popular platform means it has a nice ecosystem of support content.

Cons

It requires the commnity of support and content that it has created. Too expensive in additional training and contractor costs to keep it an org value--if you have SF it's worth investing to get it fully workable--I would never onboard salesforce brand new at any company.

I am the COO of our company, so my main focus is not sales, although I have multiple key accounts under my umbrella. I might not use all the "deeper" functionalities, but it is easy to learn, and find your way around if you are new to the program. We have expanded our use of Salesforce since we started, and we definitely have not reached the end of the program's usability.

Pros

Reports - easy overview over open, or likely to close deals, good filtering optionsConnectedness - how you can see connections between different stakeholders/roles in different projects with different account managers. It helps us understand what are client and their clinets are involved in or what they have in their pipeline.

Cons

We haven't found an easy way to create quotes directly in Salesforce, this would be a major improvement for us, as well as if we could use it for invoicing purposes. That would streamline our financial processes a lot.
