I could go on and on about all the functionality and the ease with which most tasks can be accomplished within The DataBank, but I think the most noteworthy thing I can point to is the support that we receive from them. The Databank is an integral part of our organization and has fostered our growth over the past several years. This past year we grew our membership substantially and due to the ability to track contributions, membership expiration dates, dates thanked, and all communication, this exciting growth in membership was not overwhelming and easily managed. Through the Databank we have been able to more efficiently communicate with our members and allies. With the Databank we are able to add, remove, customize, etc. With other database systems, they present you with a "one size fits all" program with no customization options. This is a great example of why we enjoy working with the Databank. The Databank added drop-down menus to the contributions table and made it work for us.
We brainstormed what we thought would work for us and submitted a support request.
DATABANK POWERMAIL SOFTWARE
We recently decided that we wanted to have our financial software align more with the Databank to allow staff to be more independent with their program budget and fundraising.
The Databank is easy to navigate and we have found that when we walk someone through a process once, they are able to complete it on their own.Īs we grow and evolve as an organization, the Databank is helping us customize certain things like the contribution table to meet our needs. We orient new staff and interns with a 1 hour Databank training and they are able to pick up on basic skills, such as searching for people, entering new contacts, updating records, using notes, and creating meetings right away.

DataBank’s facilities are conveniently located across the metro including downtown Phoenix, near the airport, and off I-10 on the way to Tucson. The low risk of natural disasters, temperate winters, and a fast-growing, business-friendly environment make Phoenix an ideal option for colocation IT infrastructure, such as DataBank’s Phoenix data centers.
