With an easy-to-navigate, unique Web-based design that can be set up as an Internet or intranet application, Millennium meets the sophisticated Web-based fundraising software needs of large nonprofits. Manage campaigns and events, track donors, and create reports quickly and easily.

Key Benefits of a sophisticated Web-based fundraising software, such as Millennium include:

Display

Use the document-oriented user interface to view complete constituent profiles on one screen. No need to click different tabs to view pieces of constituent information.
Numerous user display and configuration choices that don’t require system modifications.
Display constituent information three ways: single line, short and long. User-defined sorting and filtering options of constituent data.
Customize background, color, and font size based upon user preferences.
View all the details easily, without drilling down to see detailed data.
Unparalleled linked data allowing user to move quickly and easily through constituent information.
Customize by moving columns to desired location on display, removing unused data columns, defining hot keys, text attributes or adding custom columns.
Attributes allows you to use unlimited fields.
Remove unused data columns or add custom columns to customize displays.
Supports site-specific online documentation.

Visual Point-and-Click Query Tool

Easily customize queries and formats without pre-defined parameters or limitations.
Design a query to output to a user-specified format.
Easily design data queries in combination with other constituent data. Handle single or joint mailings to spouse, and adding soft credits, joints, or match monies into gift totals.
No need to use the more difficult querying tool in Crystal Decisions to design ad-hoc queries.

Reports

Use the Reporting Queue to handle report execution on a scheduled basis.
Take advanatage of over 250 standard reports included with the system.

Security

Define security rights within the database structure and invoke the same security rights when you access the database external to Millennium fundraising software. No risk of opening up the potential to circumvent database security.
Set security levels via table, row, or column-based values that use database views.

Fields and Tables

Use pre-defined custom fields and tables.
Include up to 4000 characters per data row.
Link external documents, spreadsheets, and scanned images, pictures.
Link an unlimited number of attachments to every row in the database.

Hardware Configuration

Millennium hardware configuration incorporates a reporting server to off-load reporting and minimize the performance impact on daily end-user operations.
Hardware configuration can scale to include additional servers as needed.

Development Platform

Optimized platform portability gives you a choice of database engines and operating platforms.
Uses an enterprise DBMS – MS SQL Server or Oracle, the leading database platforms for enterprise applications.
Business rules in Millennium are written specifically for the database engine, either Microsoft SQL Server or Oracle, rather than for a generic programming code, to allow optimal database tuning.
Business rules are defined and capsulated within the Millennium fundraising software database, to support external reporting tools, interfaces, and custom programming without requiring add-on modules of programming code or source code.
Because business rules are defined within the database, manipulation with external tools will preserve database integrity.
