Business Intelligence Provider to Integrate with Kintera Technology Platform

Advizor Solutions Joins Kintera Connect Partner Program

SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Kintera® Inc. (NASDAQ:KNTA - News) today announced that Advizor Solutions, a leading provider of business analysis software, has joined the Kintera Connect partner program to develop a solution that will help nonprofits gain a better understanding of donor behavior and giving patterns.

Once completed, the application will provide nonprofit organizations with interactive, customizable, and on-demand business analytics. Using Advizor Solutions’ Visual Discovery™, nonprofits will be able to graphically view robust analytics including gender, age, giving history, payment time and type, donation frequency, and donor campaign activity. Additionally, the interactive functionality of Advizor Solutions’ business intelligence software will enable nonprofit clients to drill down and personalize information gathered from Kintera’s donor management and fundraising solutions.

“The Kintera Connect platform enables us to create an integrated solution that we believe will enable nonprofit organizations to raise money more efficiently,” said Doug Coswell, CEO of Advizor Solutions. “The idea to contact Kintera and join the program actually came from one of our nonprofit clients, so we know the demand exists and we are confident that nonprofits will find the solution easy to use and vital to the overall understanding of donor behavior.”

Kintera Connect is the company’s open application integration platform and enables clients and partners to integrate third party solutions with Kintera technology. For example, Kintera Connect partner Freecause has developed a customizable browser tool that enables nonprofit clients to utilize the extensive segmentation capabilities of Kintera’s technology directly from the browser toolbar.

In addition to Kintera Connect, both clients and partners benefit from the company’s multi-tenant architecture. Unlike client/server or hosted ASP environments, Kintera's multi-tenancy enables all clients and applications to share one centrally maintained common infrastructure and code base. As a result, Kintera clients benefit from low costs, rapid deployment, ongoing maintenance and upgrades, and a focus on scalability and performance. The multi-tenant architecture creates a distinct boundary between Kintera's open platform and the applications that run on it. It also provides consistent APIs, which means that Kintera partners can develop an application integrated with Kintera technology once and offer it repeatedly to other clients.

“We launched Kintera Connect to provide nonprofits with the solutions that best meet their unique needs,” said Steve Johnson, vice president of channels for Kintera. “With more than 4,000 clients ranging from small, local charities to large, multi-chapter organizations, we knew we had to do what was right for the industry. The addition of Advizor Solutions to our Kintera Connect partner program demonstrates that our decision to partner with application developers and solution providers was the right one.”
