Considered Both Products	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? Kalyn Hoffman WMU Graduate Ambassador Chose Bonterra Salsa Engage Salsa Engage has a huge advantage over competitors when it comes to pricing. Since it is a newer software, it offers a lot more features for a lesser price. We explored many options and we decided on Salsa because of the integration with the CRM software and the ability to … Incentivized Helpful?

User Testimonials
	Bonterra Salsa Engage	DonationMatch
Likelihood to Recommend	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. Incentivized Kevin Gay Data Manager Read full review	It is a great tool for connecting businesses with products or services to donate with interested persons, via non-profit fundraisers, which can be selected based on values and mission. It is also an affordable way to solicit donations for non-profit fundraising events. Alegra Loewenstein Author \| Writer \| Ghostwriter Read full review
Pros	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	Expands audience awareness. Directly connects me with interested persons. Grows email list through participation in my donated content. Alegra Loewenstein Author \| Writer \| Ghostwriter Read full review
Cons	Some functionality is not obvious. Incentivized NS Nancy Snyder Program Specialist Read full review	Minor detail, but when you reply to messages the subject line turns blank, and I wish it would populate as re: original message subject.

Usability	Easy to use interface, far superior to classic. You did this right. Incentivized Kevin Gay Data Manager Read full review	No answers on this topic
Support Rating	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	No answers on this topic
Alternatives Considered	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.
