Why choose RallyUp over other solutions?

Key Comparisons:

• Setup
  RallyUp’s Instant Fundraiser Templates let you launch campaigns in minutes without technical skills, ideal for nonprofits needing speed. Classy’s tools are compelling but often require demos and technical setup, suiting organizations with time for customization.
