Connecticut Public is very excited about our transition to Revolution CRM. We see tons of opportunities for improved member management, efficiencies in workflow, and a big improvement in UX with a more intuitive and easy-to-use interface than Salesforce. The project management and support from the ROI team is unparalleled, and we’re excited to be working with a knowledgeable and dedicated partner.

We searched for our next CRM after maintaining several systems to manage each affiliate organization. The consolidation and transition have transformed our ability to work with our data, and it has radically improved our reporting and the efficiency of our operations across the whole organization. The ROI team has also remained integral to ensuring the integration across our offline and online systems function smoothly.

I like that the ROI Solutions team is willing to dive into, think through, and help solve a problem. It’s not really just the product. It’s the team.

“I don’t think we could have asked for a better partner than ROI Solutions. They told us their approach to working with an organization of our size, prepared us for what to expect, and then proceeded to meet or exceed all their promises.”

We can now handle multiple pledge drives concurrently and use that brain power to focus on other data-driven opportunities. This is a huge plus for public media organizations; the results speak for themselves! For each pledge drive, the approach has cut 75% of the time needed to review the daily file for member data inconsistencies. The time spent reviewing call center calls has been reduced by over 90%.

ROI Solutions offers unparalleled client service. Human Rights Campaign has worked with them since 2001, and they are a true partner. Sometimes, when we have a really sticky wicket, we feel like ROI Solutions is part of the Human Rights Campaign. There’s no “us” and “them.” It is rare to have a relationship like that with a database provider for 23 years and to be happy and trust that they have your best interests at heart. Most nonprofits don’t have that. Many marriages don’t have that!

We have a true partnership with ROI Solutions. During onboarding, our team at ROI dove into our program and asked the right questions to better understand our direct response strategy and goals. They get the big picture and understand the intricacies of our data to assist us in getting the right message to the right audience at the right time. We have been impressed with their responsiveness and willingness to pivot quickly with changes to our program. ROI is at the table when we implement new strategies and always look for ways to streamline our process.

ROI Solutions stands out from other vendors in their approach to partnership. Unlike some of our other partners who frequently push for more licenses or new technologies, ROI Solutions focuses on enhancing the efficiency of our existing setup to help us achieve our mission. This approach aligns with our goals and fosters a true partnership. Our mission is ROI’s mission. We share mutual respect, which sets our experience with ROI Solutions apart.

Asking donors at the right time to become part of a recurring giving program is vital to our success, but response rates are tiny in the mail. We need the insights a machine learning model can give us to optimize the resources we have to invest in these efforts. The plan is to take the typical huge invite audience and look to mail the top 50% which should get us 90% of the responders, per the model back testing.

One of the reasons I love working at ROI Solutions is that we’re at an exciting stage in the company’s development, where we are refining our processes, tools, and technology to keep pace with the growth and needs of our client base. I like the challenge of streamlining and operationalizing how our teams work together to make our work as efficient and foolproof as possible. Meanwhile, ROI’s growth is measured to ensure we retain our strong connections and commitments to each other and our clients. Our primary focus is on supporting the vital work of our nonprofit clients, not growing our bottom line.

Our transition from our legacy system to ROI Solutions was relatively seamless. The ROI Solutions team prepared a solid conversion plan and worked closely with WEDU to ensure a smooth transition and migration to the new system. We have reevaluated outdated business processes and developed a philanthropic business model that will lead to increased revenue and expanded opportunities.

The real test of any system is the ability to get data out of the system to provide users across the organization with the right information to answer the specific use case. I love the ability to create my own reports and schedule them as I need them. I am also able to schedule reports for Finance on a monthly basis, as well as create weekly and daily reports that are distributed to my supervisor and teammates.

PETA manages a robust digital advertising program and an extensive database of supporters. Before ROI Solutions’ Push to Social, our teams manually curated supporter lists and individually uploaded each data file into ad networks to create audiences. This time-consuming process limited the audience segments we could reach and the frequency of our uploads. Now that we’ve automated that process in Revolution CRM, we focus our time on creating compelling ads to share our message across responsive audience segments and discover new audiences to reach. This has increased engagement, revenue, and leads for our program.

With Revolution CRM, we’re able to bring high-touch fundraising to scale without losing the personal connections that matter most. The tools help us act on data—not just store it—so our team can prioritize relationships, stay coordinated, and interact with intention.

“It’s ROI Solutions’ industry knowledge, care in our partnership, and appreciation of our mission that makes such a difference. You’re not just a checked box on someone’s schedule to show if something’s red or green that week. In a sea of vendors, it’s hard to know who you can really trust. ROI Solutions has never failed us, and they’ve been consistent in terms of performance and support for our staff.”

In a previous position, the organization I worked for went through a database conversion, which didn’t go as well as we had planned.  So, when I interviewed at Special Olympics, I was told one of the first things we’d be working on was a database conversion.  I was still feeling wounded from my previous experience but was ready to help tackle this project.   As we went through our selection process, I learned that many on our ROI Solutions team had prior experience with Special Olympics and historical knowledge that I didn’t have coming in; I knew we were in good hands.  It was a seamless process, and the ROI Solutions team restored my faith in how a database conversion can go.

I have been in the High Touch experience daily since it became available. The system is clean and intuitive and streamlines the moves management process, which has helped us significantly clean up our major gift data and manage the end-to-end process better. You can see on one screen precisely what is happening in your portfolio. What is due and whether it’s a solicitation, an email, or a follow-up phone call. To be able to have that in one snapshot has been tremendous. The system helps us think, and I appreciate how the system will nudge you along. It also helps on the management side. It helps me to understand my team’s outreach to donors, their portfolio, and their workload. It helps me ensure our donors are appropriately stewarded. It has helped us organize a massive amount of information. We’re better able to target and segment our donors.

I am very happy to see how much training is provided in the relationship. The training gives a good overview of how the system was designed, what it was designed to do, and how you should use it.

I am not in Revolution CRM every day, but I head there frequently for important financial reports. It’s easy and quick. With our previous CRM solution, many simple things were difficult. It was an arduous process, but with Revolution CRM, it’s easy to navigate and access what I need.

We came to ROI Solutions in a sorry state because we couldn’t trust our data. Our processes were convoluted, and communication with our members was frequently confused and affected. We had few automated processes. For example, the lifeblood of many public media organizations is its sustaining membership. But recapturing declined transactions was highly manual.  With Revolution CRM and Engaging Networks, we’ve automated processing and communication around declined sustainer transactions. After putting these processes in place, we recaptured more than $80,000 in just the first few months. For us, that’s a staff position — a journalist in the community telling stories that matter.  It’s not just numbers in a spreadsheet.

I make no secret of the fact that ROI Solutions is the first technology partner I’ve worked with that I actually love. I’m a master of bad analogies, but our migration from Salesforce to Revolution CRM was like a bungee cord jump. The ROI Solutions team was the cord. If you’re going to jump off a bridge, you want to have complete trust that the cord will hold. It dawned on me late in the project, after going live, that there wasn’t a single point where I doubted the safety of the cord. This brought a profound sense of relief and peace of mind.
