Kintera Offers Comprehensive Software as a Service Replacement Program for Convio, GetActive Clients

Program Available for Nonprofits Concerned with Merger-Related Issues

SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Kintera Inc. (NASDAQ:KNTA - News) today announced it is offering a migration, implementation and software replacement program for existing Convio and GetActive clients, enabling them to benefit from Kintera's comprehensive software as a service (SaaS) platform. Nonprofits interested in learning more about the replacement program should contact a local Kintera sales representative at 858-795-3000 or visit www.kinterainc.com/program.

The proposed merger of Convio and GetActive, two niche product providers of nonprofit software, creates uncertainty regarding the integration of technology platforms, culture, and which platform survives.

"In this rapidly growing market, consolidation can be expected among technology providers. Nonprofits shouldn't be forced onto a platform that wasn't part of their initial analysis," said Richard N. LaBarbera, Kintera COO.

Kintera is the only SaaS provider to offer nonprofits a comprehensive product suite with functionality, such as a content management system (CMS), advocacy, constituent relationship management (CRM), donor management, wealth screening, and online fund accounting, integrated in one platform. Kintera is also SAS 70 and PCI compliant, providing state-of-the-art data security throughout the entire transaction cycle. The Kintera Sphere(TM) software as a service technology platform enables organizations to quickly and easily reach more people, raise more money and run more efficiently. In addition, Kintera's social CRM solutions are focused on helping nonprofits achieve greater social accountability to both donors and the public.

Nonprofits seeking to replace their Convio or GetActive software and partner with one comprehensive, integrated technology provider should visit www.kinterainc.com/program or contact a local Kintera sales representative at 858-795-3000.
