What to Look for in The Raiser’s Edge in 2012

The end of the year is a time to both reflect on the previous 12 months and to consider the year ahead. 2012 will be an eventful year – the Summer Olympics will be held in London, the World Expo will be held in Yeosu, South Korea, and The Raiser’s Edge 7.92 will be available for download on Blackbaud.com!

We’re excited about this upcoming release and hope you are, too. One new feature will allow you to add or remove individual or a group of constituents from a query list, without changing the meaning of the original query. Another new feature is The Giving Score, which applies smart analytics to your database by segmenting your constituents into four unique groups, allowing you to focus your efforts on those who are more likely and capable to give. Other features include built-in data quality checks and folders in Export, and later in the year we’ll be introducing easy-to-use mobile fundraising tools.

If you’re interested in participating in beta testing or product discovery, fill out the form on The Raiser’s Edge 7.92 release page. If you have any questions about the upcoming release, let us know in the comments section!
