| "I've used Factary Phi daily in the week since we got it. I've found it to be easy to use and a great tool if you don't have much time and want to get a quick overview of a donor's other charitable interests." - Anna Smith, Snr Major Giving Officer at MIND |
| "I find Factary Phi a great source of information. It is now one of my top research links to provide information on recipients or donors and their giving habits. I use it regularly for finding information on particular donors that I would have otherwise spent hours searching through Google to find and I also use it to prospect for new potential donors on new fundraising projects. It has grown in the year that I have been using it and will improve with age as it gets more and more information added to it. I love reading the regular newsletters that provide insightful information on philanthropy in the UK and I think Phi will provide a unique tool to understand more about how philanthropy develops over the coming years." - Sacha Tremain, Major Donor Research Manager at THE NATIONAL TRUST |
