Why Adding Tons of Features to Fundraising Software Results in Disaster | Bloomerang: Taking Inventory on Feature Usage in Nonprofit Database Systems
Every leading retail store operation knows down to the penny what revenue and profit is being provided daily, weekly and monthly by each item of inventory being sold. They know which ones are hot and which ones are slow movers. They obviously adjust future orders based upon this information.
Software vendors, especially those serving the charity sector are not always that smart! I am not trying to be harsh, but to my knowledge few if any of the top vendors have ever removed little used features and functions in order to stream line the use of their products. This is sad because the end users could truly benefit if this was done.
