"Kindsight's ascend product complements Salesforce’s natural strengths while enhancing it with advancement-specific functionality."

"All of our users are excited about the depth of information available in one place: Kindsight's ascend."

"Kindsight has been an indispensable resource for BWF in supporting our clients' missions. The platform’s ability to provide deep, real-time insights into donor capacity and philanthropic interests has allowed us to craft more targeted, effective fundraising strategies for our clients to build lasting donor relationships and optimize their philanthropic goals."

"Using Kindsight has been game-changing for us as an organization. To be able to discover the people who give to us annually, but that actually have the capacity to give much more has been incredibly helpful."

"I’ve used other tools and honestly, I couldn't cancel those contracts quick enough to come back to Kindsight. I find the search feature within the iwave product is the simplest and quickest way to get the information I need to determine a prospect's compatibility. It is intuitive and simple to use; you can start with just a name and go from there. And I love that I can search for individuals and Institutions. I would be hard-pressed to be able to do my job without Kindsight."

"After using Kindsight to execute our year-end appeal, we went from $88,000 to $175,000 – that’s 99% growth in just one year. Kindsight allows us to have a targeted approach with our campaigns. Instead of sending mass direct mail to thousands of constituents, we can tailor our outreach to a smaller group of individuals we know have a high affinity for our cause and are prime candidates for our campaign. In theory, you could do all this grunt work yourself, but with Kindsight you have the information AND the insights, and you can trust that it will guide you in the right direction."

"I told my boss the moment I came on board that Kindsight is a must. Kindsight always provides such great service and makes my life easier."

"Kindsight's iwave product is invaluable for the granular analysis of prospects. It allows us to weed out irrelevant data and focus on what truly matters. I haven't found another tool that does this as effectively."

"For me, what makes Kindsight unique is the ease of using the interface, the speed at which I get results back, and the efficiency it provides. I use Kindsight's iwave product to evaluate portfolios, qualification pools, and new leads. I’m really impressed by how quickly I can get that data back, and I am fully confident that I can trust it. For the cost, Kindsight is invaluable. We’re a public institution and work within parameters of annual, fluctuating legislative and administrative support for resources. Kindsight delivers the best ROI for our needs!"

"It is so helpful to filter by labels in Kindsight's iwave Dashboards. It lets me see a high-level overview of each development officer's portfolio. It's easy to see everything and pick out an area that I want to drill down into. I especially like the iwave insights visuals, which help us easily identify which donors may need some extra research/attention (Hidden Gems) and which ones we should consider rolling off the portfolio (Not Now Prospects) to make room for new potential high-capacity donors."

"Kindsight allows us to provide our clients with information that helps them to do the amazing work that they do."

"Thank you for such a terrific product. Kindsight is the first and sometimes the only resource I use when researching a prospect. It’s user-friendly, clear, concise and so much better than any other product out there."

"[Kindsight's Multi-Lens Modeling provides] a more organic view of our prospects. Being able to look at other areas of affinity simultaneously helps us get a clearer picture of our prospect’s interests and philanthropic inclination."

"Kindsight is my go-to resource for research on individual prospects and donors. Not only does it kick-start my research on key people, but it is also highly useful for identifying new prospects. I have always appreciated Kindsight's leadership in our field, which has resulted in my professional growth as a researcher and allowed me to continually raise the bar and deliver better results."

"Kindsight has set the gold standard in providing researchers with a multi-purpose tool at an affordable price."

"I feel like we’re just scratching the surface of what we can do with Kindsight."
