My Opinion
The DonorPro 4.2 is an easy to use software which is packed full of features. I found the layout and design very easy to navigate, and I especially liked the advanced query features which let you find exactly what you are looking for quickly and easily.
Another feature I was impressed with was the ability to scan checks into batches or groups and automatically print a deposit slip for that batch, which is a huge time-saver when you have a large event or fundraiser. Overall I was very impressed with the whole system, and also with their customer support which was included in the purchase price, meaning no hidden or extra fees. I would recommend this product, which can be used for any size non-profit organization.
