    WHY CONCOURSE FOR BLACKBAUD CRM HOSTING?

    COST EFFECTIVE SOLUTIONS

    Hosting with Concourse is more cost-effective because we own our own hardware and private cloud infrastructure. Unlike Blackbaud Cloud, which resells Azure services—adding a costly middleman—we deliver hosting directly to you. This streamlined approach ensures you get enterprise-grade performance and support at a lower cost.

    BUILT FOR PERFORMANCE

    Fast, reliable systems that keep up with your nonprofit’s mission. From speedy environment refreshes to SQL expertise, we ensure every aspect of your Blackbaud CRM operates seamlessly.

    DESIGNED FOR SECURITY

    With PCI, HIPAA, and GDPR compliance, ransomware-proof backups, and 24/7 monitoring, we protect your most valuable data with industry-leading measures.

    CUSTOMIZABLE AND SCALABLE

    Every solution is tailored to your organization’s needs. Choose when to upgrade, how to configure your environments, and the integrations you need—all with end-to-end managed support.

    PROACTIVE SUPPORT

    From customizations to environment management, our experts handle the details so your team can stay focused on advancing your mission.

    BLACKBAUD CRM MIGRATION SERVICES

    SQL EXPERTISE

    From performance tuning to database resizing and high availability, our SQL experts cover every aspect of your platform’s stability, scalability, and security.

    PURPOSE-BUILT

    We manage dedicated environments for development, staging, testing, compliance (PCI/HIPAA), analytics, and more—tailored to meet your needs.

    DISASTER RECOVERY

    With an industry-leading 4-hour Recovery Objective, we protect against worst-case scenarios and ensure your Blackbaud CRM data is always recoverable.

    What We Deliver for Blackbaud CRM Hosting

    Keep your secondary environments (development, testing, or staging) updated and aligned with production, so you can confidently test changes, customizations, and upgrades.

    Deploy customizations, run scripts, and ensure smooth operations with expert support. We help your team stay organized and ready for anything.

    With PCI DSS, HIPAA, and GDPR compliance baked into every environment, our security-first architecture is monitored and audited frequently—taking the compliance workload off your team’s shoulders.

    You decide when to patch or upgrade Blackbaud CRM, and we take care of it for you. We also handle back-end updates like SQL Server or Windows Server changes, keeping everything seamless.

    Complex integrations? No problem. We provide flexible and secure options to ensure your workflows connect flawlessly without sacrificing security.

    Give your core team custom SQL permissions for running scripts, checking for blocking, executing stored procedures, or capturing data with SQL Profiler—protected by Duo two-factor authentication.

    With managed detection and alert systems, 24/7/365 emergency support, and encrypted backups, your Blackbaud CRM data is always safe and secure.

    Every environment is crafted to your needs, whether it’s custom workflows, specific configurations, or performance-optimized hosting for Blackbaud CRM and its integrations.
