Why choose Graduway over ToucanTech?

When selecting a solution for community management, mentoring and fundraising, it’s important to carefully consider all of your options. Graduway from Gravyty is the industry’s top community engagement platform and it’s proven to deliver the most value as it integrates with leading CRM systems creating a more powerful combined solution when compared to the very basic database and engagement tools ToucanTech offers.

ToucanTech

Access to an ecosystem of fundraising + engagement technologies to energize, mobilize + steward your community

Highly Customizable Platform with Multiple Language Options

Dedicated Internal Account Manager + Onboarding Team

Full suite of digital fundraising options.
Supports leading payment processors 

Powerful community management features such as: In-Platform Surveys, Premium Groups + Public Event Postings

Freedom to work with powerful CRMs, including Blackbaud, RE NXT and Salesforce

Advanced Mentoring Programs with Milestones + Intelligent Algorithms

Real-time engagement with Who is Live Now + Group Video Chat 

Trusted by the world’s leading institutions + organizations

Fast + flexible
data management.

Graduway’s holistic approach to the campus network ensures that engagement, mentoring, and fundraising can all work together or alone, depending on your school’s goals and strategy. Raiser’s Edge, Blackbaud and Salesforce are among the CRM systems that integrate with the Platform. 

ToucanTech provides a single system content management with database features, based in their cloud, it is not a CRM. The program is designed for smaller schools and associations which are most likely new to community management and fundraising, and are taking a very soft approach to it.

Engagement, mentoring +
fundraising in one place

Graduway offers customizable features and flexibility, making it easy to engage your community and keep them involved for the long term. Keep constituents connected through flash mentoring, structured mentorship and internship programming, and by promoting relevant career opportunities. ToucanTech offers a simpler mentoring feature with matching, but lacks in program management and mentoring communication tools.

With features like Embeddable Giving Forms, a Donation Widget and integration with Advance from Gravyty, Graduway has everything you need to drive successful fundraising efforts. Even though ToucanTech offers alumni engagement, community outreach, a payments module and annual giving pages, it is not designed to successfully create and promote large digital fundraising initiatives, such as Giving Days or Crowdfunding campaigns.

Support community +
alumni businesses

Both platforms provide a place where community and alumni businesses can showcase their organizations and receive support from the alumni community. Beyond that, Graduway’s business directory allows Admin to promote certain offers and provide business owners a choice of paid or unpaid posts. It also enables community and alumni businesses to access a pool of alumni job seekers to find suitable candidates. Graduway can also automatically pull job postings from the Handshake, Indeed and Symplicity website RSS feeds. Conversely, ToucanTech provides only basic business promotion and job posting tools that aren’t valuable enough to drive additional revenue for institutions.

Engage your alumni
network smarter + faster
Ease of Use.

With Graduway, empower your alumni community to create more ambassadors, more mentors and more donors.
