Bonterra

What Bonterra does

Bonterra is a vertically integrated social-good software platform serving nonprofits, foundations, corporations, and government agencies. Founded in 2021 by Apax Partners through the consolidation of EveryAction (nonprofit CRM), Social Solutions/Apricot (case management), and CyberGrants (enterprise CSR and grantmaking), the company has since acquired Network for Good, GiveGab, WeSpire, DonorDrive, OneCause, and Deed to build the largest connected ecosystem in the sector. Its portfolio spans fundraising, donor management, peer-to-peer campaigns, giving days, volunteer management, employee giving and volunteering, enterprise grantmaking, case management, and corporate philanthropy reporting, all linked through the proprietary Bonterra Network that connects 216,000+ nonprofits, 46 million supporters, and 640 million daily transactions.

The platform is built on a unified data backbone enabling Bonterra Que, the company's purpose-built agentic AI layer that delivers fundraising coaching, donor segmentation, grant matching, note capture, intervention signals, and natural-language analytics across the portfolio. Underlying infrastructure is hosted primarily on AWS (including AWS Gov Cloud for government customers), with integrations to Salesforce, Snowflake, and Amazon QuickSight. Bonterra operates primarily through enterprise field sales targeting Fortune 100 corporations and large nonprofits, supplemented by inside sales for mid-market and a free Nonprofit Hub tier acting as a product-led growth funnel. Revenue is generated via quote-based SaaS subscriptions with tiered pricing across product lines, complemented by transaction fees on payment processing.

Bonterra monetizes across four primary revenue streams: fundraising and engagement SaaS (EveryAction, Network for Good, DonorDrive, Mobilize, GiveGab, OneCause); corporate CSR SaaS (Deed, CyberGrants) used by half of the Fortune 100 and 9 of the top 10 US financial institutions; case management SaaS (Apricot and Apricot for Government, touching 40M+ lives); and grantmaking software (CyberGrants, Grantmaker, Jumpstart). The company reports powering $28B in giving in 2025, including $8.94B in grants, $958M in employee donations, and 16.2M volunteer hours, and serves 170,000+ organizations globally with a 1,001–5,000 employee base headquartered in Austin, Texas.

Direct peers

• Blackbaud: Blackbaud is the largest publicly traded provider of nonprofit software (CRM, fundraising, financial management, grantmaking, K-12) and the most direct competitor to Bonterra across EveryAction, Network for Good, Apricot, and CyberGrants. Both serve overlapping nonprofit and education customers with comparable subscription SaaS models.
• Salesforce.org / Salesforce Nonprofit Cloud: Salesforce's nonprofit vertical offers CRM, fundraising, and program management built on the Salesforce platform, directly competing with EveryAction and adjacent Bonterra products. Strong overlap in nonprofit customers, with deep native integrations that pose a horizontal-platform threat to Bonterra's CRM layer.
• Benevity: Benevity is a leading corporate CSR and employee engagement platform offering giving, volunteering, grantmaking, and ESG reporting — competing directly with Bonterra's Deed and CyberGrants products for Fortune 100 enterprise CSR buyers.
• Classy (by GoFundMe): Classy is a peer-to-peer and online fundraising platform serving many of the same nonprofit customers as Bonterra's DonorDrive and GiveGab. Now owned by GoFundMe, it competes head-to-head on event fundraising, recurring giving, and campaign UX.
• Submittable: Submittable is a leading grant management and application-review platform used by foundations, governments, and corporations — directly competing with Bonterra's Grantmaker and CyberGrants grantmaking products.

Broad incumbents

• Microsoft Tech for Social Impact: Microsoft offers discounted/free cloud, Dynamics 365, and Power Platform tooling to nonprofits through its Tech for Social Impact initiative, competing broadly with Bonterra's CRM, case management, and donation-form capabilities. Massive distribution and ecosystem make it a key indirect competitor.
• Google for Nonprofits: Google for Nonprofits offers free access to Google Workspace, Ad Grants, and YouTube for nonprofits — a free-adjacent alternative that competes indirectly with Bonterra's SMB products (Network for Good) on basic productivity, marketing, and donation-page functionality.

Emerging players

• Funraise: Funraise is a fast-growing nonprofit fundraising platform with peer-to-peer, donation forms, and CRM capabilities, competing with DonorDrive, GiveGab, and OneCause. Comparable customers and product surface area make it a relevant SMB-to-mid-market emerging competitor.
• Givebutter: Givebutter is an emerging all-in-one fundraising platform (donations, events, P2P, auctions, CRM, marketing) targeting small and mid-sized nonprofits — directly competing with Network for Good and OneCause at the low end of Bonterra's market.
• Foundant Technologies: Foundant provides grantmaking software for community foundations and is a niche competitor to Bonterra Grantmaker and CyberGrants in the small-to-mid foundation segment, with comparable workflow/scholarship management functionality.
