Beacon has been transformational for our charity in every way

Edinburgh Dog & Cat Home

We’re exploring opportunities we just couldn’t see before because we were so busy with data handling and manual stuff that we shouldn’t have needed to do at all. We’re now thinking about projects we wouldn’t have been able to dream about with our old CRM.

Kevin Hughes

Special Olympics Ireland

How Beacon engaged with us is really, really top level. It’s great technology with old school customer service. There hasn't been a single bad experience of any of our users.

Anthony Hayman

Noah's Ark Hospice

A friend called me after setting up a regular donation to tell me they'd received the most beautifully written email. They said, 'Gosh, you've really got your team well drilled', which was amazing because we hadn't really done anything!

New Hope

Every time we speak with Beacon’s support team we are glad we chose Beacon rather than the alternative.

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.

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 over 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.

What do I need to do to get started?

It's best to start by checking out a demo below and signing up for a free trial. If you have any questions, you can ask a member of our friendly team.

How do I migrate my data to Beacon?
