The short version

  • Only Zeffy has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: NeonCRM neonCRM operates as Neon CRM under Neon One, whose own pricing page gates every figure rather than listing one; Zeffy 100% free for nonprofits with no platform or transaction fees; the vendor is funded instead by an optional donor contribution added at checkout that is never required, so nonprofits keep 100% of what they raise
  • They diverge on capability: NeonCRM covers Donor management, Zeffy covers Donation forms.
