Makes it Easy
“Eastern Shore Land Conservancy has been using TCM for over 2 years and are very happy with it. The ability to see the whole story about an individual constituent is what really makes the difference with this software. TCM makes it easy to see at a glance whether someone is an easement donor, a volunteer, and what events they have attended. That combined with a powerfully customizable reports library, makes this database a great asset for a land trust.”
Laura Sanford Director of Advancement
Responsive
“The beauty of TCM is the ability to integrate our numerous databases throughout the office into one system. We had an ineffectual assortment of departmental data silos: Exceed, Access, Excel, even Word. The feature that sealed the deal was the Land Trust Manager—to be able to integrate our land stewardship database and make it a whole-organization, one-stop-shopping data management tool—was difficult to find anywhere else. And, TCM’s team is exceptionally responsive to our intricate Development reporting needs.”
Lisa Cormier, Administrative Director, Mount Grace Land Conservation Trust
User-Friendly
“I work for a small non-profit called Speaking Up For Us. (SUFU) We are a unique organization run by our members who all live with a developmental disability. We started using Total Community Manager about 2 years ago. Using TCM has allowed SUFU to keep track of our membership, fundraising, trainings and conference registrations, chapter meetings and more. But beyond that we have been able to use it to track all of our staff time in the volunteer manager and import our data right from our online timesheets. TCM is so user friendly that one of my staff members who has a disability now imports most of our data into TCM and sends me the reports when he has completed it. Using TCM has made the work I do much easier and the support team has been able to accommodate all the database needs SUFU has had.”
Monique Stairs: Program Director
Great functionality/flexibility
“TCM’s features and user friendly approach has allowed up to better understand our contacts and donors and effectively communicate and reach out to them.”
Rebecca Howes; Manager of Development and Public Relations, Day One
Does it all
“I am the executive director of a small land trust in South Carolina. We need good software that assists us in all phases of outreach, tracking our fundraising efforts and keeping track of our conservation properties. TCM does all of this. I also very much like the integration with Constant Contact. While I am not much of a computer person myself, I have learned to effectively use TCM and the support from TCM staff has been outstanding.”
Barry R. Beasley, Executive Director, Katawba Valley Land Trust
Hands-on support
“I really like the Constant Contact integration with TCM. I like that we can put email changes in one central place and sync lists with Constant Contact. I’m also pleased that if donors are on two or more lists, they’ll still only get one copy of our e-news! Thanks for your responsiveness and making this integration so smooth!”
Jane Calvin, CFRE Executive Director, Lowell Parks & Conservation Trust, Inc
Easy to use
“As someone without a lot of database management experience, I found TCM easy to learn and user-friendly.”
