Virginia Beach, VA (PRWEB) October 04, 2013

StratusLIVE, a leading provider of cloud-based fundraising and constituent relationship management (CRM) solutions to nonprofit organizations, has unveiled the latest version of the Workplace Giving Portal. The new portal allows nonprofit organizations and employers to easily launch and manage online workplace employee donor campaigns.

StratusLIVE is well known as the leader in delivering seamless platform solutions to nonprofit organizations, with comprehensive CRM and online fundraising capabilities. The new Workplace Giving Portal provides complete integration so every transaction flows directly into StratusLIVE for Fundraisers making it fast and easy for employees, donors, workplace coordinators, and nonprofits. This enables clients to use a strategic, single platform, providing a real-time 360-degree view of all constituent activity across all channels.

“A modern, online workplace giving campaign should provide employee donors with a personalized, quick, friction-free experience,” said StratusLIVE CEO Jim Funari. He went on to describe the client and prospect feedback driving the product vision. “Our clients asked for a modern, responsive user interface capable of running on all widely available devices. They want the ability to personalize the content and giving wizards to address both company and employee preferences. And finally, they want to deploy new sites directly from their StratusLIVE for Fundraisers environment with full integration of pre- and post-campaign activities. This new version provides all of this and much more.”

Designed to deliver the flexibility and innovative features that clients have come to expect from StratusLIVE, the Workplace Giving Portal makes it possible for employees to review previous gift history, make new online gifts and pledges, view personalized content, manage designations, and update personal contact information. Employers who utilize the Workplace Giving Portal will find that its state-of-the-art content management tools will save time for campaign coordinators while improving overall donor experiences. The wide array of features makes it a CRM milestone for meeting the needs of employees, employers, and nonprofit organizations.

“Our product vision is to bring everything together into one consistent, integrated architecture,” Funari said. “The new Workplace Giving Portal extends this single platform approach directly into workplace giving campaigns. The result is an enterprise-class, fully integrated solution available anytime, anywhere to serve even the largest of nonprofits and the companies who support their efforts.”

Push-Button Provisioning
New workplace campaigns can be deployed out of StratusLIVE for Fundraisers by simply entering a few setting options and clicking the “deploy” button.

Advanced Contact Matching
The Workplace Giving Portal recognizes which donors already exist in StratusLIVE for Fundraisers and creates or updates profiles as appropriate.
