7 New Features to Explore in Gratona This September

This Month’s Number: 30

An average, nonprofit organizations spend 30% of their day managing data between systems. For teams already balancing fundraising, donor relationships, sponsorships, programs, and events, every disconnected workflow adds more work.
This month, Gratona brings that idea to life with registration first events workflows, connecting event setup, tickets, registration, waitlists, check-in, and reporting in one workflow.

Less switching. Less manual work. More time for your people and your mission.

Registration First Events Workflows

Make every event easier to manage. Gratona Events now brings the registration journey together from setup through public registration, waitlists, check-in, and reporting. Configure tickets, admissions, attendee groups, questions, and attendee details in one connected workflow. Less switching between tools. More time to bring people together.

Sponsorship Lifecycle Controls

Keep every sponsorship relationship moving forward.
When a recipient leaves a program, staff can now reassign or archive the sponsorship while seeing the billing impact before confirming the change. Sponsorships can also be archived and restored individually or in bulk, preserving relationships and history along the way. Learn How to Manage Sponsorship Changes

Use One Report Everywhere

Create it once. Use it everywhere. Saved reports now open consistently from worksheets and Report Builder across desktop and mobile. Reuse the same report instead of rebuilding filters and columns, making recurring reporting faster and more consistent. Learn How to Reuse Reports

Build and Run Reports With Confidence

Find the information you need faster. Teams can now switch between list and table views, search and sort report rows, and use date presets that stay current whenever a report runs. Reporting becomes easier to explore, reuse, and share across your organization. Explore Reporting Tools

Donor Form Field Manager and Identity Rules

Build forms that fit your organization. Manage Standard fields, Custom fields, Program overrides, and Form settings from one workspace. Gratona also applies Individual and Organization identity rules consistently across forms, checkout, portals, trips, events, imports, and administration. Explore Donor Form Settings

A simpler way into your workspace. The Gratona sign-in experience now provides clearer workspace context across desktop and mobile. Admins can switch between email-code and password sign-in without losing an email-code session already in progress. See the New Sign-In Experience
