Blacksburg, VA – January 24, 2011 – Click & Pledge announced today the release of a free donor management system built on the Salesforce.com CRM platform. The hosted donor management system is fully integrated with the Click & Pledge payment gateway and its suite of custom fundraising software, according to the Company.
“Click & Pledge has delivered a free, donor management system based on the Salesforce.com Non-profit Starter Pack platform. Plus, we have enhanced it and integrated it with our payment gateway and fundraising software,” said Kamran Razvan, Ph.D, chief executive officer of Click & Pledge.
On top of the Salesforce Non-Profit Starter Pack is an exclusive set of non-profit features and custom reports that deliver one central access point for all data, donor and volunteer information, recurring payments, over 70 custom reports and dashboards, a virtual terminal, and all the rich features available through the Click & Pledge fundraising software.
Dr. Razvan noted that this is all possible for non-profits because the Salesforce.com Foundation donates up to ten seats annually to qualified 501 (c) 3 organizations.
Non-profits benefit by becoming more cost effective, by increasing fundraising revenue, streamlining data capture, employing custom reporting and analytics, managing all donors/volunteers/contacts from one location, enhancing patron relationships, and by employing a suite of over 30 online fundraising tools and an online payment gateway. Organizations may now leverage new technologies for fundraising and advocacy, mine the data to identify key strengths or weaknesses and manage campaigns or events.
“With any organization cost is a factor,” Razvan continued. “We already deliver the industry’s lowest cost of ownership; this donor management addition makes that claim even stronger,” he added. “Now, any size non-profit can benefit from these new and emerging technologies. We have removed the cost barriers that exist. This package is designed expressly for non-profits to get a unified view of every interaction you have with supporters. Combined with the integration of our payment gateway and suite of fundraising software tools, non-profits are armed with one of the most comprehensive, effective and efficient systems available.”
“This product application is free,” Razvan said, “and that is important to us and to the non-profits out there that need to do more, but with less funding. I think a majority in the non-profit community has become weary of the high cost of legacy software that is out there. This product gives them a free application that is feature rich, easy to use, effective and painless to manage. Our free fundraising solution is bigger, faster, and stronger than anything in the industry,” he stated. “There is no software to install, no hardware to maintain and it is straightforward for everyone in an organization to use. It’s a win for organizations because it is free and low, low risk. Ultimately,” he explained, “we are putting powerful fundraising tools and CRM into the hands of non-profits for literally no cost.”
The Click & Pledge donor management platform is supported by a network of dedicated programmers. Support for all Click & Pledge modules is free to customers. “We are excited about the future applications for this product offering,” said Dr. Razvan. “Our team is programming several new modules for release later this year. But most importantly, the breadth and scope of Salesforce.com is so vast that future product expansion is amazing.”
Click & Pledge has been a leader in the software-as-a-service and “cloud” delivery of hosted products for non-profits since 2002. “We lead the way in providing free online fundraising software. With the addition of the Salesforce-based donor management, we have added one of world’s most powerful fundraising and mission management platforms,” Razvan said.
