Households and deceased people can't be easily tracked l. This is essential to good stewardship.

Givebutter knows a lot more about how small nonprofits can raise money than I do, and that shows in everything from their helpful and thoughtfully-developed tools to the newsletters and guides they send out. Campaigns, analytics, and donor management...

The lack of sortable fields and search for constituents by name is bothersome. In Classy and other programs, you can sort and search by donor names - in GiveButter you can't. Also annoying is that the program defaults to asking for a 3 percent tip when...

There has to be a way to go from event to event and let’s say I raise 100k. 1 check gets sent of 25k. In the mean time, I start another event after the 100k event, if I sold this event out before the next check is sent off, you can’t tell the difference in funds. It’s a book keeping nightmare.
