Archives: Importacular

The free version of Importacular offers an impressive number of customizations and capabilities that quickly make you realize how beneficial the tool truly is. We’ve since expanded our use to include some of the optional mappings for gifts and relationships to help complete large data manipulation projects that would have taken many days to complete without Importacular. The more time we spend using the product the more ways we find for incorporating it into our standard workflows and processes, helping to cut down on manual data entry. Customer service has been incredibly responsive and helpful, and the time savings we have already realized from Importacular has more than covered our investment in the product.

The integration between Importacular and GiveCampus is all going smoothly for us. Adam from Zeidman Development was a huge help in getting the recurring gift piece functioning properly, and since then it’s been perfect! I appreciate the excellent customer service y’all provide.

I can’t begin to express how my quality-of-life re: data entry has improved because of Importacular. It’s one of the most crucial tools I have, and I seem to be using it for so much – cash audit receipts from One Cause, Give for Good Louisville, CMN, event participants, quarterly volunteer reports. As I’m typing this, I am realizing how truly reliant I’ve become on this simple-to-use plugin. It’s a software I can trust and I am really appreciative of your feedback and snappy support when I need it. I really can’t think of anything I’d do to improve it.

Importacular has allowed us to leverage the peer-to-peer fundraising capabilities offered by Classy. It’s allowed us to import teams, participants, and gift information with a few easy steps. I have enjoyed using this tool so much that we are now importing data using Importacular rather than the Import tool within RE. It’s been a great time saver and we are very happy with it.

Importacular has made our life so much easier! We have donations weekly that we import and then events multiple times per year, using Importacular saves us so many hours of work!

We’ve used the free version of Importacular for about a year now, primarily for Mobile Cause text data imports. The gift import works great once the template is setup.  Now we use it for other import needs, like updating or adding data based on name and address matches too. 

We’re really enjoying Importacular, as I’m new in the role and previously the team have been using complex Access queries to create import files.
 
Importacular has reduced processing time for online donations down from 3 hours to 30 mins.

We use Importacular to import a large number of supporter engagement donations into Raisers Edge from our online portal and other giving platforms such as Charities Aid Foundation, Virgin Money Giving and Just Giving. We managed to easily create a mapping so that along with adding the gifts, new constituents records for new donors who are missing from our database and created and existing records’ data is automatically updated, including contact details, opt-ins and more. This is all done on a significantly easier interface than the import module that exists in Raisers Edge and is very easy to customise for varying campaigns and appeals.

Including the brief amount of time it took to set up the mapping template, we’ve managed to save over eight hours a month in processing time compared to the built in import function on Raisers Edge.
