MicroEdge Sets New Standard for Grantmaking on the Web
MyGIFTS version 2.0 offers personalized grants management
New York, NY, November 17, 2003 - MicroEdge, Inc, the world's leading provider of solutions and services for the grantmaking community, and a wholly owned subsidiary of Advent Software, (NASDAQ:ADVS), today announced the release of MyGIFTS version 2.0, a Web-based solution for grants management that provides giving professionals with a personalized view of their grants data.
MyGIFTS is built on the proven foundation of MicroEdge's GIFTS system, the leading software solution specifically designed for giving organizations of all sizes. MyGIFTS is an Internet add-on module to the core GIFTS system that now allows users to manage their complete grants management workflow via the Web. This includes reviews and approvals, correspondence, payment processing, budget tracking, while also providing powerful search capabilities and full web-based access to run all reports.
"The Jay and Rose Phillips Family Foundation has found MyGIFTS to be indispensable for maintaining better control over the progress of their philanthropic work, providing real-time report access and easier year-end reviews", says Shari Burt, Grants Manager/Information Systems Manager.
MyGIFTS offers a truly personalized and customized approach to grantmaking. All key personnel involved in funding decisions, such as board members, trustees, program officers, executives, communications staff, and grants managers, can have instant, streamlined access to grant information that is vital to them.
"In addition to our typical grantmaking, the Foundation also administers four separate charitable trusts,", says Barbara Scace of the William Penn Foundation. "MyGIFTS allows us to design custom homepages for board members and trust members, the result is a one-stop shopping area where users can find everything they need to know."
"MyGIFTS 2.0 also incorporates new customization and integration capacities that are key components in the unfolding MicroEdge open systems direction", states Rob Reuss, Chief Technology Officer at MicroEdge. "With the ability to integrate external systems such as mapping solutions, GuideStar data, or to create new, custom Web-based solutions that fully integrate with the MyGIFTS interface, this release empowers clients to leverage GIFTS data and functionality in whole new ways."
