Blackbaud Launches Luminate CRM on Salesforce1 AppExchange

Blackbaud has launched Luminate CRM on the Salesforce1 AppExchange, extending the accessibility and availability of the Force.com-based CRM for nonprofit organizations.

Luminate CRM is a cloud-based solution, built on the Force.com platform from salesforce.com, designed specifically for nonprofit organizations. Luminate CRM provides enterprise-level nonprofit organizations with a full suite of marketing, fundraising, and database tools.

"The flexibility and extensibility of the Luminate CRM platform has just been made even more attractive by its inclusion on Salesforce1 AppExchange," said Chris Clinton, Blackbaud's vice president of global channels and partner ecosystem, in a statement. "Our ongoing commitment to the Force.com platform and Luminate CRM in particular continues to bolster our product portfolio and gives our customers multiple options when considering the best CRM platform to help them achieve their mission."

"Companies are looking to transform the way they connect with customers, partners and employees to thrive in today’s connected world," said Ron Huddleston, senior vice president of ISV and channel at salesforce.com, in a statement. "By leveraging the power of the Salesforce1 Platform, Blackbaud provides customers with the proven social, mobile and connected cloud technologies to accelerate business success."

The move comes as Salesforce.com recently added its own Salesforce1 for Nonprofits solution.
