Take a look at Telosa....
We just switched (6 months ago) to Aptify. It seems to designed for expos and conferences, but it is very flexible, so we are building prospect research and moves management views/fields. Once it is fully built-out, it should be very powerful.
By the way, we needed something that worked for our seminars, for our alumni, and for fundraising programs. It's very difficult to find anything that covers all three areas well.
We use Tessitura. This system is used for our ticketing and marketing purposes as well which provides a fuller picture of our donors interests. The tessitura team also provides documentation and email groups were you can chat with other users.
We also use Tessitura at San Francisco Performances.
Does anyone have experience with Raiser's Edge? How do you feel about it? Does it work for your organization's needs?
I have used raisers edge in the past - not the most user friendly but pretty extenvive.

We use Progress, a bit awkward until you get used to it, but any problems we have are more to do with historical data entry issues than inherent problems with the database itself.
A second part of this question would be: have you been able to integrate your database solution into your online activities, capturing pertinent donor information?
well, dear people in here....
we have actually being thinking alot about this issue and come to this solution!
we have developed our own donation-fundraising program - everytime a user of our system receive a great bargain from one of our advertisers (a user, will only receive bargains based on their own criteria namely "product, price and distands to the shop"), then up to 50% of our net-profit, will go directly (DIRECTLY) to the organisation that THE USER have choisen as benefitor ;)
see THAT´s donation
the program will be opened at www.bipbip.com shortly - but we are running a test-site at http://pibpib.com -(without the www.)
ps: the program called: to do good-feels good!

We have alot of experience with Pledegemaker, Raiser's Edge and Donor Perfect. This question is obviously a loaded one, because it depends on how you need to USE your database as to which one is right for you.
We've adapted ODB, a database that was written for community organizers, to our modest needs. Organizing people and organizing money are similar tasks, so it wasn't that much of a stretch
I am looking into Giftworks for one of my organizations. We are a membership org that needs to streamline our data process and start fundraising. Any comments or suggestions? (Or course we have no budget for software, so I am aiming for something inexpensive!)
Well you have to use the best software that you can find. There are thousands of softwares online for fundraising database. The best advice is to hire a professional who can find the right software for you. In the long run it can save you a lot of money.
