Considered Both Products	Action Network No answer on this topic	Bonterra Salsa Engage Verified User Anonymous Chose Bonterra Salsa Engage Salsa Engage is one of the easier products to set up and use, but with that comes limitations. If you want something simple, this works, but if you have more complex needs, then you'd be better off investing in another system that requires more set up work, but provides more … Incentivized Helpful? Annie Regan Senior Campaign Manager Chose Bonterra Salsa Engage EveryAction is a lot cheaper, but Salsa has more featured with targeting certain elected officials/better text messaging strategies. Incentivized Helpful? Kevin Gay Data Manager Chose Bonterra Salsa Engage Salsa Engage provides a pretty simple interface, which is great for most applications. It buries some key functionality, however, that requires intervention for technical personnel. The errors in synchronization are poorly stored, and there's no way I can parse through hundreds … Incentivized Helpful?

User Testimonials
	Action Network	Bonterra Salsa Engage
Likelihood to Recommend	No answers on this topic	Salsa Engage provides a robust interface to Salesforce--our primary CRM--allowing non-intervention synchronization to categorize supporters into groups for email communication. As we are only six months into our implementation, we have not found areas where it's not appropriate to use beyond nit-picky synchronization delays and smart group updates.

Pros	No answers on this topic	List of donors- organization. Can tag separate lists and send certain emails to certain groups. Reaching different types of people in various platforms. Incentivized Annie Regan Senior Campaign Manager Read full review
Cons	No answers on this topic	Some functionality is not obvious. Incentivized NS Nancy Snyder Program Specialist Read full review
Usability	No answers on this topic	Easy to use interface, far superior to classic. You did this right. Incentivized Kevin Gay Data Manager Read full review
Support Rating	No answers on this topic	Support response has been swift and knowledgable, though not always the answer I've wanted. One huge design flaw is if I add a new Salesforce field to sync, Salsa Engage will not sync it unless it has changed since the last sync, requiring me to fake an update for an entire database or re-sync the whole enchilada. Better to recognize it's a new Salesforce field and perform the sync en masse. Incentivized Kevin Gay Data Manager Read full review
Alternatives Considered	No answers on this topic	Salsa Engage is one of the easier products to set up and use, but with that comes limitations. If you want something simple, this works, but if you have more complex needs, then you'd be better off investing in another system that requires more set up work, but provides more customization and robust reporting opportunities.
