Salesforce.com? Doesn’t exactly sound like something a non-profit would be interested in does it? But actually, we think it’s the bee’s knees as far as CRMs go, and here’s why.

  1. Salesforce.com will donate 10 user-licenses to every non-profit each year (that’s worth around AUS$22,000)
  2. Additional licenses are heavily discounted
  3. You get access to full support by phone and email – no need to rely on blogs and forums to find your answers, talk to the experts
  4. Upgrades happen automatically – you won’t even notice, but 3-4 times a year, Salesforce.com will automatically upgrade your version of Salesforce.com for you.
  5. It’s web-based which has a number of benefits:
    1. you can access your data anywhere and anytime you want
    2. you can easily integrate it with your website
    3. you don’t need any special computer equipment to run it, just a web browser
    4. you can even access it from your mobile!
  6. It’s easy to customise so development time is short (and cheap!)
  7. Salesforce.com support the non-profit sector through donations of hard cash, staff time by volunteering, and donating licenses. They mean it when they say they value the work of the non-profit sector.
  8. It does everything on our Choosing a CRM check-list.

But don’t take our word for it, we’ve got some case studies for you.
