Import-O-Matic featured on the Blackbus home page:
“We used to be weeks behind on our gift processing…”
“We hired a bunch of temps for our year end processing…”
Do these comments sound familiar? Like many other nonprofits, The Prostate Cancer Foundation and The McCormick Foundation were manually processing a large amount of gifts into the Raiser’s Edge from direct mail campaigns, lockboxes, online gifts, and prospect lists. Despite dedicated development teams they still found themselves behind in gift processing these or hiring data-entry temps just to keep up.
The Prostate Cancer Foundation and The McCormick Foundation needed to automate their gift processing to save money and time. Both organizations partnered with O-matic Software to use Import-O-Matic™, the flexible importing solution for the Raiser’s Edge.
Import-O-Matic, a plug-in for the Raiser’s Edge, provides organizations the ability to quickly and easily process these gifts from their lockbox services, websites, and banks into the Raiser’s Edge seamlessly without adding duplicates to their database.
Using Import-O-Matic, The Prostate Cancer Foundation is saving over $1,000 and 50 hours per week and is able to process gifts daily before noon. The McCormick Foundation no longer has the need for year-end temps, which is saving them money every year.
Import-O-Matic offers nonprofits the ability to import data files from banks, prospect lists, web sites, lockboxes, mail houses, or Excel efficiently and accurately. With on-the-fly duplicate checking, Import-O-Matic will process constituent, address, gift, and relationship records simultaneously. Import-O-Matic allows users to import to gift batches, set default values, and convert fields automatically. Beyond gift processing, Import-O-Matic is also used for processing constituent updates, such as colleges that frequently update their alumni information.
“I’m always so happy to talk about this software,” proclaims Xochitl Vega from the Prostate Cancer Foundation, “it has been such an amazing time and energy saver for us. I have been using Raiser’s Edge for 11+ years, and this is by far the best plug-in utility that has been created.”
Import-O-Matic has helped many organizations automate this process, saving them time and money. Some of these organizations include Teach for America, UNICEF Canada, Mercy Corps, American Humane Association, University of Texas San Antonio, Milken Institute, and the Oregon Food Bank.
