GiftWorks™ 2010 was released on September 8, 2009! We have added new features specifically requested by our customers designed to help you increase your efficiency and effectiveness.
Here are some of the new features in GiftWorks™ 2010:
Keyboard-Based Quick SmartEntry of Donors and Donations
You can design and customize your own data entry pages where you can tab through fields quickly and easily. This feature saves major data entry time and is a must-have for nonprofits entering larger volumes of data.
Donor Merge
Dealing with higher volumes of data inevitably creates duplicate donor situations. This feature enables you to merge duplicate donors so entire donor history does not have to be re-keyed.
Enhanced Donor Contact Information
GiftWorks™ 2010 allows you to specify 2nd and 3rd addresses, phones, and emails for donors and display them in SmartLists and Reports.
Enhanced Mailing Capabilities
GiftWorks™ 2010 gives you the tools to create custom calculated fields using new SmartFields functionality in mailing letters (i.e. "Last year you donated $x. Would you consider increasing your gift to [$x+$50] this year?"). GiftWorks also provides the ability to customize tables that are inserted into letters for donations, pledges and honorariums/memorials. These changes will enable you to create better solicitations and acknowledgements that will quickly lead to more money raised.
Enable Zero-Dollar Donations
GiftWorks™ 2010 allows donations with a value of $0, which greatly improves options for managing your in-kind donation program.
Improved Import Donor Matching
The current GiftWorks importer finds existing donors using a combination of donor name information. GiftWorks™ 2010 will give you the option to choose which field you want to use to match to existing donors in GiftWorks.
New Update via SmartList Options
New options include changing Donor and Donations Custom Fields, adding Tasks, adding and removing names from Mailing Lists, and changing Donation Amounts (can be used to change all your historic $.01 in-kind donation amounts to zero!).
New Donor SmartList Criteria
Includes Household members' total giving, average giving, largest donations and number of donations.
