Desktop, Web and Mobile. Save Time and Do More from Anywhere in the world with ‘Cloud’ for O365.

In 2015 our ‘Classic’ product was released and laid the foundation for a new, and better way to integrate Blackbaud CRM into a user’s technical ecosystem on their desktop. It saves time, increases data quality and removes much of the effort of using a robust but demanding CRM system. With the release of our O365 ‘Cloud’ solution in 2018, users now have many of those same features available in a new package for Outlook on their Desktop, on the Web and, most importantly, on their Mobile device. We’ve built in some new features that allows users the ability to look up any constituent in Blackbaud CRM on the fly, quickly and easily make and log calls, leverage device functionality for a number of actions such as opening a map of  saved constituent addresses and even launch into Blackbaud CRM directly for a deeper dive no matter where they are or what device they’re on.

Core features carried over from our ‘Classic’ solution but redesigned for ‘Cloud’  allow users to Add, View, Edit and Close Interactions, Prospect Plan Steps, Stewardship Plan steps and much more right from the palm of their hands, anywhere in the world. This is a unique solution that integrates securely between Blackbaud CRM and Microsoft Outlook 365.

In addition, our ‘Cloud’ solution gives users the ability to extend their user experience on the desktop as well by surfacing Constituent, Interaction, Plan and other information in real-time in a pane within the Outlook program; often automatically. This quick-view includes many of the features of our other products but also gives your users the ability to ‘Click through’ to Blackbaud CRM to quickly and easily. This saves times and increases efficiency while passively drawing a user’s attention to tasks that may need to be completed or suggested to be completed.
