Engaging Networks ROCKS Engaging Networks has the premier online and email platform right now for nonprofits. I love everything about it and sing its praises often with our clients.

Powerful but difficult to use and maintain Engaging Networks is a powerful platform but there are limitations. Support is limited and you're on your own if you need technical assistance. Reporting is complex, manual, and difficult.

Innovative, but could improve on client support I like the innovative aspect of the platform and how the company focuses on research and development. That being said, as a medium size organization without a lot of budget, it was hard for us to keep up with the changes on the platform, and sometimes issues that come with those changes. In addition, because of how customizable your tools are, we ended up building a lot of highly customized forms which became difficult to maintain when we switch agency. Finally, while we have no doubt that the team is highly technically capable, we often felt that our needs were not heard or understood, and ignored. Ultimately, we left EN because some of the fundamental needs we had with the platform were not met and we were tired of having to constantly troubleshoot and fix issues when new releases were brought about.

A platform ready to challenge the big guys Of the fundraising platforms in the market today, there aren't too many that can challenge the big guys, and the first that comes to the top of my mind is Engaging Networks. In the six years since I signed on as a client, I've seen the Engaging Networks platform grow while not straying too far from their core product, and doing so by respecting and listening to their customers. As a non-profit marketing technologist, I've worked with software companies of similar size, but Engaging Networks has the best user community, partners, and employees out there. Maybe it's because all their clients want the best for their clients, community, and country, not just profit, and that brings about more transparency and two-way communications between all parties that I haven't seen before. From a usability experience, Engaging Networks has a better backend than others and complete customizability for end-users. Documentation and customer training has been a continuous point of improvement for them and I appreciate their attention to that often missed requirement.

Everything a nonprofit needs! I used Engaging Networks in 2018 when I worked for Ocean Conservancy. The tool was easy to use, provided everything we needed and they were always releasing new products. Support was always responsive and helpful. As a previous client, I'd definitely recommend it for any nonprofit that needs excellent fundraising and advocacy tools.
