RETweet Professional integrates Twitter with The Raiser’s Edge
Howard Lake | 1 March 2012 | News
A plugin from Zeidman Development now lets fundraisers exploit the functionality of Twitter within Blackbaud’s The Raiser’s Edge.
RETweet Free, launched in December, allows fundraisers to view constituents, their Twitter feed, followers and following directly in The Raiser’s Edge. As well as letting users search Twitter directly from within The Raiser’s Edge, using standard search or hashtags, it helps organisations identify supporters who use Twitter so that they can connect with them via that channel if they wish. It pulls in data from Twitter to assign Twitter usernames to matching supporter records to give a broader view of the channels they use.
Current Raiser’s Edge users can download RETweet Free and use it. There is also a sample version of RETweet Professional available for download, which is fully functional against the Blackbaud sample database.
Zeidman Development creates customized solutions for users of The Raiser’s Edge, Blackbaud Enterprise CRM and Blackbaud Direct Marketing. For example in September 2011 they integrated popular email marketing tool Mailchimp with The Raiser’s Edge.
