Bloomerang

  • Pricing is based on the number of constituent records tracked, so the bill grows with the database rather than with usage
  • The all in one Giving Platform starts at $242 a month billed annually
  • The products are sold separately, with Fundraising from $40 a month, CRM from $125 and Volunteer from $119, so a full stack means stacking subscriptions
  • Every published price is a starting figure billed annually, with exact cost requiring a sales conversation
