Excel

Two weeks ago, we discussed how to import data from other systems which bridged the gap of consolidating your data into DonorDock rather than using multiple systems. Last week you got to hear from both Erika and Matt as they volleyed the training to cover two different topics.

There comes a time when businesses and nonprofits alike have to pull back and ask themselves a serious question: "What do you mean there's a way to do this that isn't an Excel spreadsheet?"

Don’t get me wrong – I love Excel…for certain things. As a way to store non-related, tabular style information, Excel is great. It provides rich capabilities for analysis and can do more than most people realize.
