	Blackbaud eTapestry
Considered Both Products	Blackbaud Verified User Chose Blackbaud eTapestry Blackbaud eTapestry is more user friendly for all members of the department. You don't have to be as data-minded to understand the information you put in. The cost is also a huge factor in being the perfect option for smaller organizations. You can increase the number of … Incentivized Helpful? Marnel Sexton Executive Director in Marketing at Acres of Hope (Non-profit Organization Management, 11-50 employees) Chose Blackbaud eTapestry Donor perfect is superior in all ways: reliability, ease of use, customer service, trainings, running reports, etc. Incentivized Helpful? Karen Tuecke Partner in Mission in Professional Services at Sisters of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary (Non-profit Organization Management, 51-200 employees) Chose Blackbaud eTapestry We choose Blackbaud eTapestry ten years ago because some of the above did not exist or they did not have the features such as credit card integration and direct email. We also liked the ease of use. To create queries and to run reports are easy and to create and run … Incentivized Helpful? Brittany Beltz Assistant Director of Annual Giving and Stewardship Manager at The University of Findlay (Education Management, 201-500 employees) Chose Blackbaud eTapestry We use this suite of products in our entire division. It helps us with reports and donor management, and it is very helpful on a day-to-day basis. I enjoy the ease of use as well as the product offerings available. I would recommend using this in your development office. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Blackbaud eTapestry I have not used anything like eTapestry where all the information is kept in one place. I have used other CRMs but financial information was always kept separately. Incentivized Helpful? Allanna Yates Finance and Data Coordinator/Sr. Admin Assistant in Finance and Accounting at Alzheimer Society York Region/Lake Simcoe Conservation Foudation (Fundraising, 51-200 employees) Chose Blackbaud eTapestry I very much prefer eTapestry to Raiser's Edge. I found the separation between the database and web view of Raiser's Edge very disorienting and didn't like having to switch back and forth between the two views to be able to complete certain tasks. I REALLY didn't like that a few … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Blackbaud eTapestry we were trying to consolidate eTapestry, our donation and event ticketing platform and our email marketing service. RE NXT would certainly have been an upgrade to eTapestry but did not offer the full functionality we were looking for. Incentivized Helpful? Kristin Fry Fund Development at Palliative Care Society of the Bow Valley (Non-profit Organization Management, 1-10 employees) Chose Blackbaud eTapestry Raisers Edge is more expensive and different process to pull reports Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Blackbaud eTapestry I used and set-up Salesforce.com at a previous position and Blackbaud e-Tapestry is simpler to use 'out of the box' and has a much lower learning curve. My supervisor is looking at Raiser's Edge to replace e-Tapestry for the more premium features. Incentivized Helpful? Sheryl Woodruff Deputy Director in Professional Services at Washington Square Park Conservancy (Non-profit Organization Management, 1-10 employees) Chose Blackbaud eTapestry Blackbaud eTapestry is the most customizable out of the other databases I have worked with, however, a solution like Bloomerang is easier for inexperienced database users. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Blackbaud eTapestry We have researched 2-3 other donor platforms and we just aren't at a place to change, although we are very tempted. eTapestry is getting us by for now and we don't look forward to the day when we have to change platforms and have to change things for our monthly donors. We … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Blackbaud eTapestry Network for Good is significantly more cost-effective and overall more user friendly. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Blackbaud eTapestry ETAP presents a better format and seems more powerful. But LGL is more intuitive and has more flexible options. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Blackbaud eTapestry None. At this time, eTapestry provides what we need, with a little improvement needed. This is another question for the CEO & Founder. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Blackbaud eTapestry We have compared other products and also looked at supplemental software to integrate with our events and event management software. We have looked at many other products and there is not a one that does it all. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Blackbaud eTapestry Blackbaud eTapestry is a fully cloud based system, unlike Sumac, which means it can handle continuous multi-users in real time while remaining synchronous. Everything can be stored within the system, including documents that one needs such as granting or gift agreements. Easier … Incentivized Helpful? Ann O'Neil Gradowski Development Director at Catholic Student Center at University of Maryland (Religious Institutions, 1-10 employees) Chose Blackbaud eTapestry With the exception of Faith Direct, which we had prior to eTapestry, and is strictly a vehicle for donations (think PayPal, WePay, GiveCentral, etc) - some of the others did not exist or were even less relevant at the time we chose eTapestry (Donor Perfect). We were interested … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Blackbaud eTapestry I just ran comparisons in 2016, and E-tapestry was the program that fit us best. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Blackbaud eTapestry I was not involved in the selection of Blackbaud eTapestry. However, in comparing it to my experience with Raiser's Edge, this program is more user-friendly despite the learning curve battle of the query and reports section of eTapestry. Incentivized Helpful? GREGG TOWERY Accounting and support groups at DADS (Non-profit Organization Management, 1-10 employees) Chose Blackbaud eTapestry a Previous Employee researched and made the decision Incentivized Helpful? Mollie Swafford Development Director at The Bridge Children's Advocacy Center (Individual & Family Services, 11-50 employees) Chose Blackbaud eTapestry If I had my choice I would use Bloomerang! Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Blackbaud eTapestry I think Constant Contact is somewhat easier to use and has more graphic capabilities Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Blackbaud eTapestry I have used canvas from a students perspective and it is very easy to navigate, contact people and submit assignments. Incentivized Helpful? Rich Horning Director of Development & Communications in Marketing at Alberta AdaptAbilities Association (Civic & Social Organization, 51-200 employees) Chose Blackbaud eTapestry Blackbaud eTapestry is not as robust as Blackbaud Raiser's Edge. However, eTapestry provides strong value for the cost. It is much less expensive than using Raiser's Edge. Incentivized Helpful?
