Lydia Smith
Kids Matter
We hadn't collected Gift Aid in a really long time. It was so hard to do with the tools we had, and we didn’t feel like we could trust our data. Beacon categorises eligible payments and tracks which ones we haven’t claimed, which let us claim over £12,000 in backdated Gift Aid, so Beacon has paid for itself out of the gate.
Paul Tilbury
Great Lakes Outreach
We previously had to reply to every single person, 100 donations in 2 hours – that’s probably a week’s work. Whereas, now it’s all automatic.

Goodheart
[Beacon's] customer service combined with how customizable it is means that it genuinely does feel like a CRM system that's been made just for our charity.

Baggy Trousers
Before Beacon, if I wanted to find a donor, I’d have to go on six different spreadsheets and try and search through each one, and then several transactions.
Ruth Knight
Pimlico Musical Foundation
This is an excellent product from a fantastic company with unparalleled user experience.

Hungary Hearts Dog Rescue
Using Beacon has allowed us to focus our energies on fundraising and rescuing knowing that the payments will be managed professionally.
Questions & Answers
Explore the common questions and answers about Beacon.
Is Beacon right for my charity?
It doesn’t matter whether your charity is big or small, new or old, simple or sophisticated, we designed Beacon to be the most flexible CRM you can imagine. So far we’ve supported nearly 1,000 charities in their digital growth, and we’re sure we can help you, too.
Our current CRM is a pain to use - what makes Beacon different?
Time and again our customers tell us that Beacon is the easiest CRM they’ve ever used. Unlike most CRMs, we built Beacon from the ground up for charities using cutting edge technology and backed by the most amazing support staff.
Do I need to already have a CRM in place to switch to Beacon?
No. As part of our import process we can collate and cleanse your data, regardless of where it’s currently stored, to get you setup on Beacon and make it uniquely yours. Farewell spreadsheets!
Is Beacon just a fundraising CRM?
Beacon does much more than just fundraising! As well as having all of the standard fundraising features right out-of-the-box, Beacon can also store any kind of data that your organisation needs to manage: animal adoptions, grant making, tracking memorial benches - all covered in one database.

Simply register for a demo or, if you’re up for it, take Beacon for a free test drive.
