Buyer's guide

Video Conferencing for Nonprofits: what to know

Nonprofits (the more common US spelling) share all the dynamics of "non-profits" but the dominant platforms repeat across the segment: Salesforce NPSP, Bloomerang, Neon CRM, DonorPerfect, Little Green Light, Virtuous, Kindful as the donor CRMs; Classy, Givebutter, Donorbox, GivingFuel, GiveLively for online fundraising; Aplos, MIP Fund Accounting, Sage Intacct Nonprofit, QuickBooks Online + nonprofit extensions for accounting.

The unique nonprofit needs not present in for-profit B2B: 990 tax preparation integration (most accounting tools lack this; specialty tools like File990 + Aplos cover it), grant tracking + reporting (Foundant, Instrumentl, Submittable), volunteer management with hours tracking (Better Impact, Galaxy Digital, VolunteerMatch), and donor lifetime value optimization (focused on retention + recurring giving).

The financial reality: nonprofits below $1M annual revenue typically run on QuickBooks Online + Bloomerang or Little Green Light + Google Workspace nonprofit edition + Mailchimp nonprofit (15% discount).

Challenges Nonprofits face

  • Form 990 tax preparation + transparency requirements differ from for-profit accounting
  • Recurring giving (monthly donors) drives 60%+ of major-donor program but takes years to build
  • Grant reporting requirements vary by funder; tracking outcomes + impact is manual
  • Volunteer hours tracking + Department of Labor compliance for organizations using interns
  • Donor data hygiene across CRM + fundraising platform + email is constant work

What to prioritize when picking a tool

  • Donor CRM (Bloomerang, NPSP, Neon, DonorPerfect, Little Green Light)
  • Online fundraising (Classy, Givebutter, Donorbox, GiveLively)
  • Fund accounting (Aplos, MIP, Sage Intacct Nonprofit)
  • Grant management (Foundant, Instrumentl, Submittable)
  • Volunteer + program management
