Charity CRM and Volunteer Management integration
Access Charity CRM now integrates with Assemble, the market-leading volunteer management software acquired by Access in June 2022.
The complimentary products, which provide specialist functionality for volunteer and donor management respectively, will empower our customers with a comprehensive offering of shared data, providing a holistic view of both fundraising and volunteering activity within your organisation.
Why do you need a specialist volunteer management solution, alongside your Charity CRM?
Whilst many of our customers are currently using the volunteering module within Access Charity CRM, there is a sector challenge being faced by many due to the declining numbers of volunteers year on year.
Access aims to empower our Charity CRM customers to really hone their volunteer recruitment and retention strategies with a specialist volunteer management solution, connected to your current Access solution, in a way that cannot be replicated by CRMs or spreadsheets.
By integrating both our Charity CRM and Assemble our customers will avoid silos of information, duplicate data and inefficiency that comes from disconnected systems, saving your organisation time – and making you more effective in their mission.
This development will enhance both the donor and volunteer management processes for you, allowing you to make informed decisions based on accurate information and enhanced analytics shared between systems, while ensuring a positive experience for your supporters.
