5 Reasons to Consider Salesforce for your Case Management Solution

Is your nonprofit team frustrated with having to follow inefficient, piecemeal processes to do their job rather than helping your clients? If this sounds like you, know that there IS a better way. The Salesforce Case Management Module. Here is why:

1. One-stop Shop for Your Data: The number one thing that Salesforce enables is the ability to create a single source of truth across an organization. You can protect data as needed but also share across other departments as needed. With Salesforce at the core of your nonprofit, different departments can be rolled on to a single platform and have their needs met within one solution built out on your time and budgets. Organizational silos come crashing down and collaboration is possible in one central place - efficiency is a huge win for everyone.

2. Flexibility in an Ever-changing Climate: Funding guidelines and government protocols are constantly evolving. With the Salesforce Case Management solution, you are able to adjust your own systems in order to meet the new demands vs. needing to pay more for a partner. You’ll also have access to the regular updates that are provided to all Salesforce solutions as part of your licensing costs.

3. Easy and Efficient Reporting System: Reporting requirements and outcomes tracking - each of your funders has a different cadence for applications and reporting requirements. This can quickly turn into a full-time job for someone whose role should be delivering programs. It’s pretty normal to see clients that previously took 7 business days out of a month to cobble together reporting data pre-Salesforce Case Management; imagine turning that effort into less than an hour. Yes, there are frequently tears of joy when they see how easy their new reporting process is.

4. Centralized Processes to Make Communicating Simple: By centralizing processes, there is a stronger continuum of care - colleagues can see what’s happening on a file as needed. They can see who is working on what within the client file - this becomes incredibly impactful when multiple case managers are working with a single client. No more need to sift through spreadsheets or have multiple meetings to share notes amongst each other.

5. Save Money and Time to Enable You to Do More: Cost efficiencies within the referral and intake process. When a paper form is filled out and passed to someone for manual entry, there is the risk of human error. It also duplicates efforts and limits your ability to serve more individuals. More qualified data, elevating administrative burden and the ability to focus on your services.

BONUS POINT:
Working in a nonprofit, sometimes there are many limitations on increasing employee satisfaction. Many members of the team work in your programs because of a passion for the mission. By enabling efficient, timely processes that let your staff focus on what they want to be doing, rather than administrative tasks, you can decrease staff turnover and increase satisfaction with their day to day impact.
