5 Productivity Tools for Not-for-Profits

In the fast-paced world of not-for-profits, efficiency and productivity are paramount to achieving your organisation's mission. Fortunately, there's a range of powerful work and project management software and productivity tools available that can help streamline your operations, improve communication and boost overall productivity. Here are five must-have work and project management tools for not-for-profits:

1. Adobe Express Premium Plan - Simplify Document Editing (1-Year Individual Membership)

Adobe Express Premium Plan is your go-to solution for creating, editing and managing multi-media files seamlessly. Whether you need to create marketing materials, design logos and business cards or collaborate on reports, Adobe Express has you covered. Its intuitive features save time and ensure professional results, making it a valuable addition to your productivity tools arsenal.

Eligible organisations can request a donation for up to 10x free one-year memberships for the Adobe Express Premium plan for individuals through Connecting Up.

2. Otter AI - Enhance Meeting Record Keeping with AI

Meetings are essential for not-for-profit organisations, but keeping accurate records can be challenging. Otter AI makes it easy by automatically recording and transcribing your meetings, interviews and presentations. Otter AI improves access to audio and video content by generating transcriptions for those with hearing disabilities or auditory processing disorders. This productivity tool powered by AI not only saves you time but also enables easy sharing and searching of meeting content, enhancing your organisation's overall productivity.

Qualified Connecting Up members can pay a small admin fee and access a 40% discount coupon code on a one-year Otter Business subscription for three or more users at current rates.

3. Asana - Elevate Project Management

Asana is one of the leading project management tools designed to help teams plan, organise, and execute projects more efficiently. With Asana, you can create tasks, set priorities, assign responsibilities and track progress in one place. It's a powerful productivity tool for not-for-profits looking to manage projects, campaigns and initiatives with ease.

Through Connecting Up, you can request a discount coupon code for a 50% discount on an annual subscription to either Asana Premium or Asana Business for one team.

4. MinuteMe - Simplify Meeting Management

Meetings are an essential part of not-for-profit work, but they can also be time-consuming. With MinuteMe, you can easily create and share agendas, record meeting minutes, and assign action items. This meeting management software ensures that your meetings are well-organised, enhancing productivity.

MinuteMe offers a freemium plan ("Basic") and a paid plan ("Plus"). On the Basic Plan, your team can create and operate three streams of recurring meetings (and unlimited one-off meetings). Once a fourth stream of meetings is created, you must upgrade to the Plus Plan.

Connecting Up qualified members get 35% off the monthly subscription fee for the life of your subscription.

5. Slack - Streamline Team Collaboration and Communication

Effective communication between team members is at the heart of any successful not-for-profit organisation. Not-for-profit teams can use Slack to collaborate better by sharing messages, tools and files in dedicated channels. Channels can be organised by team, project, or whatever is relevant to your not-for-profit. It offers integrations with other work management tools and productivity software such as Outlook and Sharepoint, Google Docs and Gmail. Slack keeps your team connected, whether you're in the office or working remotely.

Through Slack for Not-for-profits, eligible organisations can apply for free or discounted upgrades for Slack's Pro and Business+ plans.

Discover Slack for Nonprofits

 

 

In conclusion, these five work management software and productivity tools can significantly boost the efficiency of not-for-profits. They cover crucial areas, from meeting management to project coordination, team communication and multimedia document editing. With the right work tools and software, your not-for-profit can operate more efficiently and effectively, ensuring that your valuable resources are optimised and directed toward your organisation's core mission.
