CharityTracker Reviews

Pros

Found it quite user-friendly and I appreciate that there are several different ways to pull up the profiles of the people I'm working with.

Cons

I understand that privacy and information-sharing rules keep all providers from viewing each other's details but it would still be helpful to at least know which other agencies a person is or isn't connected with.

Pros

One thing that really helps is how clearly we can share needs with the group which prevents duplication and makes it easier to match needs with the right support.

Cons

A limitation comes from the fact that some government agencies can't use the system. It's not really a problem with the platform itself but it still creates interruptions when the goal is to stay connected with everyone.

Pros

It alerts organizations about items that other people may have available for their needs. It's a very useful tool for keeping the right groups informed and connected to resources they can use.

Cons

I haven't run into any problems with it. CharityTracker has been valuable for people who need to stay informed about what's available within the community.

Pros

Being able to monitor how our participants are progressing has been really valuable for our work.

Cons

It feels like we may be the only organization using the outcomes feature. We also do not distribute many material items since our focus is more on providing a hand up rather than a handout.

Pros

Switching from paper records to a web-based system feels very natural with CharityTracker because it includes everything needed to handle the work and can be customized to match the information you already have.

Cons

At this point, I really haven't come across anything to dislike which says a lot.

Pros

This product has helped us bring our community together in a way we simply couldn't before.

Cons

I just wish the reporting tools were a little simpler to run.

Pros

we can now clearly see what people in the community need and it has also helped us get to know the individuals in our area who are receiving support.

Cons

some of the organization descriptions are a bit unclear or too vague.

Pros

I find it easy to use although every now and then the information I need isn't located where I expect it to be.

Cons

It would be more useful if the first page of a file showed more detail such as the five most recent instances of assistance.

Pros

The biggest benefit has been being able to see how other churches are helping people. Because we use CharityTracker, we can often tell when someone has recently received assistance from another church and is now coming to us asking for the same type of help which has been very useful.

Cons

There really is not anything that comes to mind that bothers us about it. It has worked very well for us and continues to function reliably.

Pros

Being able to tailor the platform to fit the specific needs of our agency has been a big plus. The pricing also feels very reasonable which really matters since nonprofits usually have tight budget limitations.

Cons

It can sometimes be difficult to track consumers who live in different counties.

Pros

Having multiple ways to look up a client is really helpful and makes the system more convenient to use.

Cons

At times, it crashes in the middle of putting together a food order and when that happens, all the entered data gets lost.

Pros

It's a great tool for connecting people in the community with resources that fit a wide range of family and individual needs. It's a very useful platform to have when trying to locate support options and available services.

Cons

I don't care for needing to be connected to a specific organization just to use the site. I'd prefer to access it no matter which organization I work for since the resources are relevant and useful across any organization in my field.

Pros

The interface is very simple to use so everything you need is right where you expect it to be without having to dig around.

Cons

The system can be a bit slow to respond at times although we believe that's more related to our internet connection than the software itself.

Pros

Ability to connect with a larger population has been a big advantage and the support team has also been amazing when we needed help.

Cons

At times, it seems underused. In my area, I don't see many people using it the way it was intended.

Pros

The information it provides is really helpful when deciding who should receive benevolence support and it does a good job of identifying people who may be trying to abuse the system.

Cons

Not enough agencies and organizations are using it yet and the cost to use it can also be a concern.

Pros

Everything about it has been positive but the standout for me is how well it can be customized for a nonprofit and the pricing is excellent too.

Cons

It works really well so I don't have any complaints.

Pros

Keeping track of our Food Pantry operations works well and being able to attach documents and report on our outcomes is very useful.

Cons

I have to print my ID cards in a batch.

Pros

It prevent services from being duplicated. It also helps connect people with the support they need which makes coordination much better overall.

Cons

Getting around the site can be a bit challenging at times and the navigation is not always as user-friendly as it could be.

Pros

Its really useful being able to see how other organizations are supporting and serving the community.

Cons

A frustrating limitation is that duplicate entries in case files can't be deleted.

Pros

Having access to other local resources all in one place has been really helpful.

Cons

I honestly don't have any complaints.
