\n<\/a>Why Cancel Bloomerang?<\/h2>\n
\n<\/a>1. Difficult to learn<\/h3>\nAs you\u2019ll learn in our dedicated Bloomerang reviews<\/a> blog, the platform has a fairly steep learning curve, which can make it challenging for teams that don\u2019t have the time or capacity to invest in training and setup upfront.<\/p>\nHere\u2019s what users are saying about the set up process:<\/p>\n

\n<\/a>2. Lack of customization<\/h3>\nBloomerang is primarily known for its CRM, and lacks advanced fundraising tools.<\/p>\n
Because of that, it lacks the level of features and customization options needed to fully support some nonprofit\u2019s fundraising needs.<\/p>\n
Some of the customizations are lacking. It is not as robust as the CRM.” –\u00a0<\/em>Arlene G<\/em><\/a><\/p>\nI wish we could taylor a few more of the features to fit our event.” –\u00a0 <\/em>Meghan M<\/em><\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
\n<\/a>3. Add-on fees for essential features<\/h3>\nBloomerang plans lean heavily on add-on features, and some key fundraising tools like peer-to-peer giving aren\u2019t included by default.<\/p>\n
Plus, to access the fundraising add-on features, you\u2019ll need to purchase them as part of a bundled package with Bloomerang CRM.<\/p>\n
While on one hand, it’s nice to have ‘menu’ items to choose from, on the other hand, it seems that other similar systems are including for no additional cost some of the add-on features that BL charges more for. And most of the add-on features are not cheap.” – <\/em>Peggy Adams<\/em><\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
