How Standalone Software Hurts Nonprofits

Nonprofit Software Integration may sound like so much technical jargon, but it is a very important topic for Nonprofit leaders to understand. First, some background.

A 2017 study reported that on a per-staff basis, large-sized Nonprofits spent the most on IT compared to other sized organizations:

TOTAL NONPROFIT BUDGET                      PER-STAFF IT SPEND

Very Large Nonprofit – Over $10 million     $3,081

Large Nonprofit – $5-$10million                  $5,016

Medium Nonprofit – $1 – $5 million             $3,468

Small Nonprofit – Under $1 million              $2,127

Fundraising – Traditional campaigns and peer-to-peer campaigns

Donor management

Volunteer Management​

Event management

CRM (Customer Relationship Management)

Feedback/Surveys

Task management

Website and mobile content management

These software programs rarely “talk” to each other. This is what Nonprofit Software Integration seeks to overcome. If such integration is absent, the Nonprofit suffers in a number of ways:

Data can only be shared between programs by manually creating export files or, worse, duplicating data entry into more than one program.

Staff must learn multiple software programs.​

Costs of multiple standalone programs can be excessive.​
