There is no minimum database size to work with Dataro, however clients tend to see the best results when they have more than 5000 total records in their database. At this level, targeting the right ask to the right donor becomes increasingly important.
For Dataro Fundraising Intelligence, there is no minimum database size
We recommend reaching out to our team to chat further about how we can support you if you have fewer than 10,000 donor records.
The Dataro system can flexibly adapt to many fundraising CRMs. You are almost certainly capturing the minimum data that we require as part of your fundraising operations (i.e. soliciting and receiving donations).
