Kindful used to be awesome Kindful used to be awesome. No more. Kindful was purchased by Boomerang and is now marked for obsolescence. Support is marked by long delays and a near complete lack of caring. Integrations are poorly maintained and weeks go by without response to tech support problems and customer service isn't helpful. It's pretty sad. Kindful has never been very user friendly, but was reliable and had good people to help you. Those people seemed to have moved on.

Kindful is a powerful tool to help C-10 Kindful is a powerful tool to help our small non-profit manage donor relations and conduct fundraising. I particularly appreciate the fast and helpful responses to our questions. There are a few things that would make life easier- like formatting thank you letters (and envelopes) and being able to hide data fields we don't use. But we are still learning. Thanks for your support, team Kindful!

When Kindful in not Kind Our small nonprofit did a lot of research when choosing a donor management system. Our choice landed with Kindful. After 6 months of onboarding experience, and a few uploading issues that corrupter our financial management program, QuickBooks, we had to break our ties with Kindful. If we had renewed, they would have honored a $600 discount, but with our poor experience, we decided not to renew. I am very disappointed they told us they would not honor any type of financial refund, despite the hours we had to pay employees to fix their mistake. I caution you, do not allow Kindful to sync by uploading to Quickbooks, until you are sure everything has been imported correctly into Kindful during your onboarding sessions.

Best for the Price We have been using Kindful for a little more than 2 years. Their donation forms and plug-ins are the best I have seen from any donor CRM. Their user-interface is simple and intuitive. And their service and user-support is very responsive. For the price, you can't find anything better [trust me, I've looked]. Some of their tools need to be supplemented by other platforms, specifically we use an alternate tool for peer-to-peer fundraising. But since they have an open API, we've been able to seamlessly work between multiple platforms to bridge those gaps. The only piece that I really hope they improve soon is their task management/donor forecasting tools. Unless you rely very heavily on moves-management plans for major donors, you can probably work around that.

Nonprofit Our nonprofit has been able to better track and maintain our donor base since we started using Kindful 2+ years ago. There are several facets we haven’t used yet, but we are looking forward to the improvements to our donor management when we have time to implement things we have learned from guides and webinars. Thank you, Kindful! You make my job easier!
