Bloomerang: The Best DonorPerfect Alternative
Bloomerang’s cloud-based donor management software has all the benefits you’ve come to expect from DonorPerfect: fundraising management and development capabilities, mobile access, and more. However, when you consider standard features and support, Bloomerang is an ideal DonorPerfect alternative.
Bloomerang vs. DonorPerfect
DonorPerfect’s most popular “Essentials” package is $299 per month for 7,500 constituents and unlimited users and boasts no monthly fees. However, you’ll need to pay for a Constant Contact account in order to have email functionality, and you’ll have to pay an additional fee to DonorPerfect if you want their simplified user interface, email support, batch entry functionality, moves management functionality, advanced online forms, advanced reporting capabilities, and advanced direct mail segmentation features.
For the equivalent Bloomerang plan, you’ll pay $299 for 15,000 records and unlimited users, and you’ll have the same fundraising management functionality as you would with DonorPerfect. However, with Bloomerang, the best DonorPerfect alternative, you won’t have to pay Bloomerang or a third-party vendor like Constant Contact for your email marketing needs.

Bloomerang reporting
Unfortunately, many nonprofits lack the organizational standards and metrics that funders demand. They want transparency, and they want the information presented in an easy-to-understand format.
That’s why we’ve created the Sustainability Scorecard, a unique operational assessment and data analysis tool that will set you on the path toward organizational sustainability. This is just one of the unique approaches Bloomerang takes that makes it an ideal DonorPerfect alternative.
What gets measured gets improved upon. Track your year-to-date performance for face-to-face meetings with donors, in-kind gifts, your monthly donor value, and donor retention rate.

Esther Chase, Marketing & Financial Development Director, joined after the Pav YMCA started using Bloomerang in mid-2014. She had previously used DonorPerfect, but now she loves the ease of use that Bloomerang provides.
“We use Bloomerang to keep tabs of how close we are to making our goal, and we use it to generate acknowledgement letters. I like the ability to print letters–much easier than DonorPerfect.”
