Salesforce Nonprofit Cloud
Bloomerang is purpose-built for nonprofit fundraising and donor engagement, offering an intuitive, unified solution that's easy for your entire team to learn and use without extensive customization or dedicated IT staff. We help you focus more on your mission and less on managing complex software.
Top reasons why nonprofits choose Bloomerang over Salesforce Nonprofit Cloud.
Built for Nonprofits, Ready to Use
Bloomerang’s unified giving platform is designed specifically for nonprofit fundraising, incorporating best practices directly into its features. This means you get a powerful system without needing costly customization or a dedicated Salesforce administrator, saving you significant time and resources.
“Salesforce, though highly customizable, was just too complicated for our users. Most functions were just not being used and it ended up being more of a contact/address book than a true donor management system for our development team.”
Ron Marullo, Executive Director Texas Humane Heroes
Easy for All Staff to Learn & Use
Unlike Salesforce, which often requires specialized IT staff or consultants, Bloomerang is intuitive and easy for your entire team to navigate. This reduces training time and allows your staff to focus on donor engagement and mission-critical tasks, not troubleshooting software.
“The amount of time we were losing through Salesforce was astronomical. Unless you have a Salesforce administrator on your team (highly paid, highly specialized, which most small organizations can not afford) it’s a time boondoggle. I am cross-training another staffer on Bloomerang and it’s easy to teach!”
Laurie McConnell, Development and Outreach Assistant Pacific Wild
No Hidden Costs, Automations Included
Bloomerang offers clear, upfront pricing that includes all essential features, with no surprise consulting or administration fees. And unlike Salesforce, where automations require the additional purchase of Salesforce Marketing Cloud, Bloomerang includes Journey Automations feature directly within its platform, with three automations included in your Bloomerang CRM subscription.
"I like the interface. I like the drag and drop. I like the workspace. I feel like it's intuitive."
Josie Gaieck, Development Director AASK (Aid to Adoption of Special Kids)

Switching to Bloomerang, the ideal Salesforce Nonprofit Cloud alternative.
Texas Humane Heroes switched from Salesforce Nonprofit Cloud to Bloomerang because Salesforce was too complex and underutilized, functioning more as a contact list than a donor management system. Bloomerang offered a simpler, user-friendly interface focused on donor relationships and retention, with cost-effective multiple users.
"We really liked that Bloomerang’s focus was on the donor relationship and donor retention, with a very simple, but useful, user interface."
Ron Marullo Executive Director Texas Humane Heroes
