Salary benchmarks
Our take
As nonprofits and charities often struggle to keep up with the level of innovation in the enterprise world, Beacon offers a cloud-based, data-driven CRM that lets them manage donations, fundraisers, payments, events & ticketing, marketing campaigns, and volunteers all in one place.
The last few years has seen an increase in the developments in the Charity CRM space. Companies like Salesforce have rolled out major upgrades to its non-profit cloud, while platform-to-platform integrations are also becoming more common. Further to that point, Beacon is one company that’s recently integrated with JustGiving.
The company has grown steadily in popularity since its 2017 inception, picking up well-respected clients like The New Humanitarian, The Jacobs Foundation, and Cruse Bereavement Care.
