Little Green Light vs. Bloomerang – Don’t Take Our Word For It
Little Green Light Pricing and Fees
How much does Little Green Light cost? Not much, which can be enticing.
However, as is the case in so many other areas of life, you get what you pay for. It’s also likely that you’ll need to purchase additional software to fill in the gaps.
For only a tiny bit more per month with Bloomerang, you can get all the donor database features you know and love, without the need to pay extra for additional products or integration for email marketing, wealth screening, data stewardship and advanced analytics. Our solution allows you to generate more revenue and have all the tools you need in one place for successful donor segmentation and communication.

Common Little Green Light Customer Complaints:
“I used LGL with a small donor database. Now that I work for an organization with a much larger database, I don’t know how LGL would perform since I never used it to a high capacity of donors.”
“When we called to discuss BASIC development reports such as a tracker of where we are now vs. at this point last year, they said, “maybe you need something a little more sophisticated.” It is not sophisticated; it is basic.”
We take pride in the claim that no training is required to use Bloomerang.
