"For years my independent school Advancement shop has been searching for the 'perfect' prospect research tool - one that will provide the biggest bang for our buck. Finally, we've found it! Donor Search provides us with anytime access to giving history for both US and Canadian prospects. Best of all, on an annual basis DonorSearch allows us to screen 1000 of our 'suspects' (in one fell-swoop!) which has consistently led us to bump these folks into 'prospects'! DonorSearch also provides us with a cool 'calculator' which determines a realistic ask amount, which saves our Major Gifts Officers a lot of guess work. It's user-friendly, comprehensive one-stop shopping! There is zero need for any other prospect research tool. We love it!"

"We chose DonorSearch for two reasons. First, because of its "user friendly" formatting. Obtaining results in Excel format (and not having to download special software) was a real plus. Another major reason is the depth of information DonorSearch offers on donors' other philanthropic gifts. No other product offered us the ability to really understand the donor's philanthropic priorities. The results from DonorSearch really gave us a much clearer understanding of our donor pool and helped us to get the very best donors included in our study. We intend to screen all our incoming families this summer, so that we can determine our priorities for one-on-one family meetings with our Head of School. We use DonorSearch virtually every day, and we are delighted with DonorSearch's customer service. Anytime we need anything, the DonorSearch team is very responsive!"

Lisa Grider, Director of Institutional Advancement, Newark Academy

"I am hard pressed to pick which of DonorSearch's two features I appreciate more--1) its incredible ease of use, or 2) its focus on philanthropy, not assets (many of which may be highly leveraged). I have an assistant who I am training, and training time is limited.You don't need hours and hours of training to use DonorSearch--you just type in the name and run! The focus on philanthropy is what really makes this product worth having. Having a lot doesn't say a lot. Giving a lot says much more to me and our fundraisers on the field. Great product!"

Craig Steven Campbel, Director, Geisinger Health System Foundation

"I definitely agree that DonorSearch is on the cutting edge of where fundraising is headed. The future of fundraising will not solely focus on a person's wealth, but will focus more on the person and their philanthropic inclinations. Having an understanding of prospects' giving history gives you insight into the person and helps in conversation starters and developing a relationship. 'Fundraising is friendraising.' The data to help find potential "friends" has never really been reflective of that sentiment, until now."
