Whether you\u2019re on Raiser\u2019s Edge 7 and facing the end of Database View, or you\u2019re on NXT and it\u2019s not meeting your needs, making the right decision for your organization\u2019s future requires careful consideration of your unique needs, challenges, and goals.<\/p><p>Today\u2019s nonprofit leaders have more choices than ever. Blackbaud\u2019s Raiser\u2019s Edge continues to excel at core fundraising functions like gift processing, donor management, and traditional fundraising workflows. For many organizations, it remains a reliable and effective solution. At the same time, your current implementation isn\u2019t keeping pace with evolving fundraising strategies, digital transformation initiatives, and the need for cross-departmental collaboration.<\/p><p>This guide is designed to help you:<\/p><ul><li>Assess your current fundraising technology needs and future requirements<\/li><li>Understand the strengths and limitations of different approaches<\/li><li>Evaluate platform-based solutions versus specialized fundraising products<\/li><li>Consider integration possibilities within your existing technology ecosystem<\/li><li>Make an informed decision that aligns with your organization\u2019s strategic vision<\/li><\/ul><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>At Heller Consulting, our goal is to help nonprofits and education institutions find the best technology solutions for their needs\u2014not just point everyone to a specific system. Each organization has unique requirements and must weigh the pros and cons of any technology decision\u2014whether it\u2019s to enhance what you have, integrate with complementary systems, or transition to a new platform.<\/p><p>With these ideas in mind, here\u2019s what you need to know as you navigate your fundraising technology options.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-13d0ae71 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"13d0ae71\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1c570c7d animated-slow e-con-full e-flex elementor-invisible e-con e-child\" data-id=\"1c570c7d\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;,&quot;animation_delay&quot;:500}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-704c2270 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"704c2270\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Something to keep in mind if you\u2019re considering CRM solutions from Salesforce or Microsoft is that you\u2019re not looking at an apples-to-apples comparison with your current system.

class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>A product is a single application that solves a specific need, like fundraising. It is already built out by a provider based on typical functional requirements and is usually easy to deploy. But keep in mind that a product will not be able to support a multitude of operations, and it will lack the flexibility you could gain with a platform. It also doesn\u2019t necessarily integrate with other tools, meaning that the bidirectional information sharing required from modern fundraising best practices like responsive suggested gift amounts may not be easy, or possible.<br \/><br \/>On the other hand, when executed well, an ecosystem of tools connected to or built on a platform can support even the most complex nonprofit operations. This requires a change in thinking about the nature of your fundraising software, but it can pay off in the long run\u2014especially if you want to do more with your fundraising program than Raiser\u2019s Edge can support. Even though moving to Salesforce or Microsoft will take time and effort, in the end, it\u2019s possible to not only reach parity with traditional fundraising functionality in Raiser\u2019s Edge, but also be able to do much more.<br \/><br \/>There are several core areas of fundraising-related functionality that you would be replacing if you were to move away from Raiser\u2019s Edge:<\/p><ul><li>Biographical and demographical data management<\/li><li>Gift processing<\/li><li>Prospect management<\/li><li>Donor portal<\/li><li>Event management<\/li><li>Marketing automation<\/li><\/ul><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>Raiser\u2019s Edge provides this functionality in one solution but you\u2019re locked into using each of the tools provided. For example, if you find the email or marketing automation tool doesn\u2019t meet your needs, you don\u2019t have much choice except to continue using it.<br \/><br \/>With platforms, you can choose from a host of products and select the one in each area that best meets your needs.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div

needs.<br \/><br \/>At the same time, the idea of moving to a platform versus an individual product might seem intimidating. It requires a shift in thought for your development team and your organization. And it will require an investment in time and dollars for the implementation and migration.<br \/><br \/>Salesforce and Microsoft Dynamics 365 CRMs have a lot to offer organizations, including:<\/p><h4>Flexibility<\/h4><p>They offer app marketplaces and integration options that allow you to customize and extend the solutions with best-of-breed products to meet your specific needs.<br \/><br \/><\/p><h4>Integrated data<\/h4><p>A solution built on Salesforce or Microsoft is centered around CRM, which can help you grow donor relationships more effectively. It gives you a holistic view of constituents and donors, allowing you to collect more data and use data from other departments in your organization so you have more insights into donor behaviors and preferences, and helps you send targeted messages at the right time to the right constituents and donors.<\/p><h4>Efficiency<\/h4><p>Tools available in the platforms give you the ability to automate processes, such as sending a targeted email series, to help you do more with less manual work.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3d006bda e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"3d006bda\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6a4ad1b3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"6a4ad1b3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\"><div>Evaluating platforms<\/div><\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-21f5236f elementor-widget__width-inherit elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"21f5236f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>If you\u2019re thinking about moving to a platform, here are the top eight things to keep in mind<\/p><h4>1. Your requirements<\/h4><p>Start by listing your organization\u2019s must-haves, such as ease of use, features and functionality, and integration needs. Then, refer to that list as you review the following considerations.<\/p><h4>2. Solutions available<\/h4><p>Consider what other solutions are available within the platform ecosystem, such as productivity and marketing automation tools, portals or community engagement tools.<\/p><h4>3. Data model<\/h4><p>Microsoft and Salesforce each use different nonprofit data models that specify how information, such as account and contact records, are treated within the system; and both differ from Raiser\u2019s Edge. Be sure to understand these models, as they determine how your data will be mapped from your current system to the new system and might require changes to your processes to function optimally.<\/p><h4>4. App marketplace and integration options<\/h4><p>Understand the third-party applications that integrate with each system. For example, Salesforce has a large and mature AppExchange marketplace, which might be important if you anticipate needing to expand and enhance your solution extensively. Meanwhile, Microsoft\u2019s AppSource is smaller and less mature, but might have the solutions you need. Microsoft also offers integration options using Power Automate, with hundreds of pre-built connectors. Both solutions also support API integrations.<\/p><h4>5. User experience<\/h4><p>Depending on your staff\u2019s technology experience, you might find that one system is more intuitive for your organization than another. Be sure to review the look and feel of each system, as well as how they organize navigation, to better understand which user experience will work best for your team.<\/p><h4>6. Adoption and enablement<\/h4><p>Consider how long it will take your organization to learn and begin using each system. This will depend not only on specific technology learning, but also on the degree to which you will need to update or change business processes to use the new system and how your organization handles change.<\/p><h3>7. Portal functionality<\/h3><p>Both Microsoft and Salesforce offer portal, or community, solutions, allowing a nonprofit to expose data in several standard and custom objects to constituents. Microsoft offers Power Portals, which also allow you to display data to constituents. Both solutions come with templates for the most common types of portals, plus tools to manage the web content and the data you want to expose, and two user types.<\/p><h4>8. System maintenance and administration<\/h4><p>Make sure you understand what it will take to maintain each system and handle user profiles, roles, permissions, data access, and overall security. Depending on the size and experience of the staff that will be maintaining and administering your system, you might find that one system is a better fit for your organization.<\/p><p>For example, if you are already using Microsoft tools, your IT team might have less of a learning curve to incorporate Dynamics 365 into the mix. Alternately, if your team has already been exposed to the Salesforce security model, Nonprofit Cloud or a Salesforce managed package might be a better fit.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7cc9ed2d e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\"

fundraising operations and institutional knowledge. Many organizations have heavily customized their Raiser\u2019s Edge environments over the years, tailoring workflows, reports, and data structures to their unique needs. This level of investment in time and training makes switching to a new system a daunting and potentially disruptive process. It may seem old hat now, but Raiser\u2019s Edge 7 was revolutionary at the time, and it served a wide range of nonprofits over many decades. That kind of service inspires a level of loyalty for many veteran fundraisers.<br \/><br \/>For RE7 users in particular, Raiser\u2019s Edge NXT offers a familiar interface and functionality that eases the transition for existing users while introducing modern capabilities. Blackbaud emphasizes that NXT helps nonprofits raise more money through features like AI-driven donor insights, optimized donation forms, and integrated event and proposal tracking. The platform also supports a multi-channel fundraising approach, enabling organizations to manage everything from major gifts to recurring donations within a single system. This consolidation reduces the need for multiple disconnected tools, streamlining operations and improving data accuracy.<\/p><p>Another compelling reason to stay with Raiser\u2019s Edge is its seamless integration with Blackbaud\u2019s sister product Financial Edge, creating a unified ecosystem for fundraising and financial management. This integration allows for an efficient gift reconciliation process , accurate financial reporting, and better accountability across departments. For nonprofits already using Financial Edge, using Raiser\u2019s Edge NXT ensures that staff can continue leveraging familiar tools while benefiting from ongoing enhancements and support tailored to for the nonprofit sector.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-677a646e e-flex

Many Heller Consulting clients have found success with newer fundraising products that do one thing but do it well. By going to another product, you will still have a suite of functionality and a vendor that is equipped to demo the product for your team and provide support over time. Adopting a new product instead of switching to a platform can often be a good fit for development teams that are not necessarily looking to share data or workflows with other departments in the organization.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3e48edf5 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\"

pace. Raiser\u2019s Edge has responded to this shift by integrating automation features that streamline key fundraising operations. One of its core strengths remains in gift processing automation, where batch gift entry and automated receipting significantly reduce manual data entry, saving time and minimizing errors.<\/span><\/div><div class=\"public-DraftStyleDefault-block public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\" data-offset-key=\"395553a5-9dd3-442e-bde0-9502354a0000-0-0\"><span data-offset-key=\"395553a5-9dd3-442e-bde0-9502354a0000-2-0\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div><\/div><div class=\"rte-item rte-eef168d6-3922-4cc4-8177-d3a499399090\" data-block=\"true\" data-editor=\"30h8k\" data-offset-key=\"eef168d6-3922-4cc4-8177-d3a499399090-0-0\"><div class=\"public-DraftStyleDefault-block public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\" data-offset-key=\"eef168d6-3922-4cc4-8177-d3a499399090-0-0\"><span data-offset-key=\"eef168d6-3922-4cc4-8177-d3a499399090-0-0\">The platform\u2019s NXT version has expanded its automation capabilities to include routine workflows such as acknowledgment letters, pledge reminders, and basic constituent communications. These enhancements help fundraising teams maintain consistent engagement with donors while freeing up staff to focus on more strategic tasks. Additionally, Raiser\u2019s Edge NXT offers basic predictive features, including donor scoring and lapsed donor identification, which, while still evolving, provide valuable insights for targeting fundraising efforts.<\/span><\/div><div class=\"public-DraftStyleDefault-block public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\" data-offset-key=\"eef168d6-3922-4cc4-8177-d3a499399090-0-0\"><span data-offset-key=\"eef168d6-3922-4cc4-8177-d3a499399090-0-0\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div><\/div><div class=\"rte-item rte-eb37119a-56cf-4365-800b-a74ec77021d9\" data-block=\"true\" data-editor=\"30h8k\" data-offset-key=\"eb37119a-56cf-4365-800b-a74ec77021d9-0-0\"><div class=\"public-DraftStyleDefault-block public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\" data-offset-key=\"eb37119a-56cf-4365-800b-a74ec77021d9-0-0\"><span data-offset-key=\"eb37119a-56cf-4365-800b-a74ec77021d9-0-0\">Another notable advancement is in data health monitoring.

One key area is predictive analytics. While Raiser\u2019s Edge offers basic donor scoring, it lacks the depth of AI-driven analytics that can forecast specific giving behaviors, suggest optimal ask amounts, or detect signs of donor fatigue. To get these more sophisticated insights, Raiser\u2019s Edge nonprofits must find third-party tools or integrations, adding complexity and cost.<br \/><br \/>It has other limitations in segmentation and personalization. Modern platforms increasingly offer intelligent segmentation that goes beyond traditional Recency, Frequency, Monetary (RFM) models. These systems can identify micro-segments based on nuanced behavioral patterns and engagement signals. Similarly, true personalization at scale\u2014where messaging dynamically adapts to individual donor preferences and behaviors using machine learning\u2014is not fully realized within Raiser\u2019s Edge alone. This can hinder efforts to deliver highly tailored donor experiences that drive deeper engagement.<br \/><br \/>Additionally, Raiser\u2019s Edge has limited capabilities in areas like natural language processing and complex process automation. It struggles to automatically analyze and categorize donor communications, social media mentions, and qualitative feedback. And while it supports basic workflow automation, more intricate, multi-step processes that span departments often require external platforms or custom integrations.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-581f4f91 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con

exist in isolation\u2014they\u2019re foundational to your organization\u2019s ability to advance its mission. The Heller Consulting team brings proven methodologies and specialized nonprofit expertise to help you navigate your options and implement the right solution for your unique needs.<\/p><p>Our collaborative approach means we work alongside your team to:<\/p><ul><li>Evaluate your current technology ecosystem against strategic objectives<\/li><li>Identify opportunities for process improvement and automation<\/li><li>Develop a practical roadmap that balances ambition with reality<\/li><li>Implement solutions using best practices in project and change management<\/li><li>Provide ongoing support to ensure sustainable success<\/li><\/ul><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>Whether your future includes an optimization plan for Raiser\u2019s Edge, a hybrid approach with strategic integrations, or a transition to a new platform, we help you make informed decisions that align with your mission and maximize your technology investment.<br \/><br \/>No matter what you decide to do with your fundraising technology, consider these tips based on our extensive experience helping nonprofits get the most from their tools:<\/p><h4><br \/>Review Contracts and Plan Timelines<\/h4><p>Analyze your Raiser\u2019s Edge contract terms, including renewal dates and notice periods, and develop a realistic timeline that accounts for selection, implementation, and transition. We recommend building in buffer time\u2014most platform migrations require 6-12 months for proper execution.<\/p><h4><br \/>Map Your Technology Ecosystem<\/h4><p>Document all Raiser\u2019s Edge modules currently in use\u2014for example gift processing, events, and membership. Identify the critical workflows each module supports and their importance to your operations. Catalog existing integrations with other systems, both formal and informal, and conduct a workflow analysis that covers key business processes and manual workarounds.<\/p><h4><br \/>Understand Your Data<\/h4><p>Simply moving to a new system will do nothing to clean up bad data. Start now to get a sense of how much data clean-up you might need to do before changing to new software. Many orgs we work with have inconsistent use of data, especially in campaign structure, attributes, and constituent codes. Start there\u2014and we have a guide for that too! Even if you ultimately decide to stay on Raiser\u2019s Edge, having clean, updated data will help you operate more efficiently and effectively.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4df2600f e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"4df2600f\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-76cf3c7d e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"76cf3c7d\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7ed39fd elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"7ed39fd\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Heller Consulting's implementation approach<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-77ef316a elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"77ef316a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h4>Methodology<\/h4><p>Our structured implementation methodology includes strategic discovery, tailored roadmap development, and solution design that respects your unique processes.
