If your team is exploring alternatives for contact and partner support tracking, you might take a look at TntWare and DonorElf—two options that have been around in the missions space for many years.

TntWare offers a suite of tools designed to help mission organizations manage donation data and connect it with support raising tools. Their TntConnect software is a free partner/contact management program specifically built for missionaries raising their own support, and it’s available in numerous languages to serve global teams. TntWare also provides DonorHub, a cloud service that automatically syncs donation and accounting data to support raising tools so missionaries can focus more on relationships and less on data entry. www.tntware.com  (Thanks, Valerie!)

DonorElf is a web-based CRM focused on simplicity and clarity for support raising. It can import donor and gift information from your organization’s accounting system, helps you track communication and tasks for ministry partners, and keeps all contact info in one place—making it easier to stay organized and engaged. Many mission organizations have found DonorElf intuitive and helpful for staying on top of partner care and giving patterns. www.donorelf.com  (Thanks, Tim!)

Both are worth a look if you’re exploring replacements for Partner Essentials or other support-raising/contact management tools and want systems that are mission-oriented rather than generic CRM platforms. What do you use? Please comment.
