From Activist Frontlines to Digital Future: Why nowCRM 1.3 is More Than Just a Software Update
I remember a time, not too long ago, when we were organizing thousands of beds for refugees in a matter of days. The energy was incredible, the will to help was overwhelming. But behind the scenes, we were drowning in a sea of Excel spreadsheets. It was a coordination nightmare, and I saw firsthand how even the most passionate movements can stumble when their tools can’t keep up. That experience, and many others like it from my years as a campaigner, is etched into the DNA of every product we build at nowtec solutions.
That’s why I’m genuinely excited to talk about the new features in nowCRM 1.3. This isn’t just another software update with a list of new bells and whistles. It’s the next step in our mission to provide NGOs and non-profits with the robust, sovereign technology they need to focus on what truly matters: their work. We’ve listened to your feedback and built the tools that I wish I had back in my most intense campaign days.
Cut Through the Noise with Advanced Filters

One of the biggest challenges for any organization is reaching the right people with the right message. With our new Advanced Filters, you can now slice and dice your contact data with incredible precision. Imagine you want to reach out to all your volunteers in a specific region who have participated in at least two events in the last year and have expressed interest in fundraising. With a few clicks, you can create that list and save it for future use. This isn’t just about sending more emails; it’s about sending smarter, more targeted communications that resonate with your supporters.
Automate Your Outreach with Journeys

I’ve seen too many organizations burn out their staff with repetitive, manual tasks. Our new Journeys feature is designed to tackle this head-on. You can now create sophisticated automation workflows that engage your contacts at the right time, without you having to lift a finger. For example, when someone signs up for your newsletter, you can automatically send them a welcome email, wait a few days, and then follow up with a personalized message based on their interests. This frees up your team to focus on building real relationships, not just managing data. You can even add a fork to your journey and the recipients reaction will determine how the journey goes on.
Your Megaphone for Change: nowComposer

In today’s world, your message needs to be heard across multiple channels. With nowComposer, our multi-channel communication tool, you can manage your social media campaigns and outreach from a single, unified platform. We’ve even added special integration for LinkedIn, allowing you to build targeted campaigns to reach decision-makers and influencers directly. This is about more than just posting updates; it’s about building a community and mobilizing support for your cause.
More Control, More Power

We’ve also made significant enhancements to the Admin Panel, giving you more control over your data and your platform. From a quick health check of your connected channels to a comprehensive taxonomy management system, we’re putting the power back in your hands. This is a crucial part of our commitment to digital sovereignty. Your data is your most valuable asset, and you should have complete control over how it’s managed and used.
Built for You, by People Who Get It

At nowtec solutions, we’re not just another tech company. We’re a team of activists, campaigners, and developers who understand the unique challenges that NGOs and non-profits face. We’re building the tools we wish we had, so you can focus on making a difference.
If you’re ready to see how nowCRM 1.3 can transform your organization, I invite you to schedule a demo with our team. Let’s build a better future, together.
