Above is a features comparison of DonorPerfect and Boomerang that is based on information published at the time of comparison. Both DonorPerfect and Bloomerang are strong products, possessing their own unique features. DonorSnap matches up well with each product, yet is offered at a significantly lower cost due to a much lower marketing budget. Marketing expenses such as attending tradeshows, advertising in magazines and banner ads on web pages are all significant; attending one trade show can cost as much as $20,000. These added costs for marketing and advertising need to be built in to their product’s pricing.
The one important feature that can’t be quantified in a comparison chart is personal service. At DonorSnap you will be dealing with the same professionals that have been with the organization since its inception. Each one understands that each and every account is integral to our continued success. We grow organically, through word of mouth, and therefore need to be attentive to our customers’ needs. Our personalized attention is evident by our Zendesk* support response time: DonorSnap’s average response time is less than 2 hours for all questions. (This includes requests that come in during off peak hours such as the middle of the night and weekends). By comparison, the industry average response time, per Zendesk, is 18 hours. This significant disparity is evidence of the importance we place on our customers and the service we will continue to provide.
*Zendesk is the leading customer support software provider in the country.
