Indeed, Ovrture provides the option to print specific content panels without the need for any additional layout or design on your part. This enables you to create custom PDF documents for leave-behind materials on the cultivation side of the platform. On the reporting site, a donor (or you as an internal user) can print stewardship reports, including all of the funds (up to 70!) per individual donor report. Whether you need a tailored document for a specific cultivation site or stewardship reports for donors who prefer print, Ovrture empowers you to generate and share printed content efficiently and effectively.

How long does it take to create a site or report on Ovrture?

The timeline for creating a site or report on Ovrture depends on the level of personalization you require. For instance, you can build sites in as little as five minutes with basic customization. However, if you’re aiming for a fully customized approach for a high-value donor, the process may take longer (i.e. tracking down yearbook photos from the library archives, or adding in a tailored video from a clinician). Similarly, reports can be efficiently generated at scale, accommodating the needs of hundreds at a time, with optional layers of customization for select donors.

What security certification does Ovrture have?

Rather than complying to a single security standard, Ovrture has opted to leverage ProcessUnity’s detailed reporting that can provide you with an output in your preferred security framework. View our assessment on ProcessUnity.

Where can I see Ovrture’s platform documentation?

Why is an SSL certificate necessary for Ovrture?

Security and trust are paramount when it comes to donor engagement. Ovrture mandates the use of an SSL certificate to ensure encryption for all web traffic to and from our platform. This layer of security safeguards your data and prevents potential concerns about the legitimacy of your site. Establishing this trust is essential for the security of both Ovrture and your donors.

How frequently should an SSL certificate be renewed for Ovrture?

SSL certificate renewal is recommended approximately once a year. This practice aligns with industry standards and addresses recent changes, such as Apple Inc.’s restrictions on TLS (SSL) certificates. Ensuring that your SSL certificate remains up to date is vital to maintaining a secure and seamless donor engagement experience.

Can a wildcard SSL certificate be used for Ovrture?

Yes, a wildcard SSL certificate can be used for your Ovrture system. However, if you opt for this approach, you will need to provide us with the corresponding private key as well. This requirement is essential to uphold the security of your domain and prevent potential misuse of the certificate.

What is the process for obtaining an SSL certificate for my Ovrture system?

You will receive a certificate signing request (CSR) from your client engagement contact as needed or upon request. With this CSR, you can request an SSL certificate from your chosen certificate provider. Once you have the certificate, you can submit it to Ovrture using the specified form, ensuring a seamless integration of security measures.

Which SSL certificate provider is recommended for Ovrture?

While you have the flexibility to choose any SSL certificate provider, NameCheap’s Comodo PositiveSSL product is a popular choice among our clients. This certificate offers ease of acquisition, affordability, and strong security features, making it an optimal fit for Ovrture’s security needs.

What happens if an SSL certificate is not renewed before expiration for Ovrture?

Failure to renew your SSL certificate before its expiration can result in disruptions to your Ovrture site. Web browsers may trigger warnings, which can affect the user experience and potentially erode donor trust. Timely renewal is essential to ensure uninterrupted functionality and maintain a seamless donor engagement journey.

Why is the creation of a DNS entry required for Ovrture?

Creating a DNS entry is a crucial step in integrating Ovrture with your brand identity. By establishing a CNAME (Canonical Name) record, you create an alias that allows your Ovrture site to function under your chosen subdomain. This process ensures a cohesive donor engagement experience and reinforces your organization’s online presence.

Why is the domain "ovrture.io" used for DNS instead of "ovrture.com"?

The differentiation between “ovrture.io” and “ovrture.com” serves a strategic purpose. While “ovrture.io” powers the background operations of the platform, “ovrture.com” serves as the public-facing website where users learn about Ovrture. This separation enhances security and compartmentalizes the platform’s operational aspects.

Does Ovrture support Single Sign-On (SSO)?

Yes, Ovrture supports Single Sign-On (SSO) functionality. Currently, Ovrture’s application accommodates authentication via SAML (Security Assertion Markup Language). We have clients using Azure AD, Active Directory Federation Services, Okta, OneLogin, Shibboleth, and others as their Identity Provider (IdP) for Ovrture.

If your IdP isn’t listed, no worries, if it supports SAML we can make it work. Single Sign On can be used for any backend Ovrture account besides the System Admin. This feature enables seamless and secure access for users, enhancing the user experience and streamlining authentication processes.

Does Ovrture offer Single Sign-On (SSO) for the System Admin account?

Ovrture is actively developing Single Sign-On (SSO) support for the System Admin account. This enhancement will further simplify access and security management for administrative users, ensuring a cohesive experience across user roles.

Will Ovrture provide Single Sign-On (SSO) for donors and prospects in the future?

Indeed, Ovrture has plans to expand its Single Sign-On (SSO) capabilities to encompass donors and prospects. This future development aims to provide a unified and seamless authentication experience for all users engaging with the platform.

Does Ovrture support SSO via InCommon Federation?

Yes, Ovrture serves as an InCommon Federation Service Provider and supports SSO via Shibboleth SAML2. This compatibility facilitates secure and convenient authentication for users utilizing InCommon Federation Identity Providers (IdPs), enhancing the overall user experience.

What SAML2 attributes are required for SSO via InCommon Federation on Ovrture?

Ovrture’s SSO functionality via InCommon Federation primarily relies on the “eppn” or “eduPersonPrincipalName” SAML2 attribute. This attribute ensures accurate user matching between Ovrture and the InCommon Federation Identity Providers (IdPs), contributing to a seamless and efficient authentication process.

How are analytics presented on Ovrture?

Ovrture offers comprehensive analytics to help you gain deeper insights into donor engagement, both within the platform’s dashboard and in exportable format. The platform provides rich and detailed data on how individual donors interact with their site or report. And, with the magic of filters and tags you can easily narrow down key information to the exact donor segment and/or timeframe you’re interested in learning more about. You can even set up alerts to be notified when a donor logs in, allowing for timely follow-up.

Additionally, aggregated data about all donor engagements can be easily exported to your CRM, ensuring a detailed record of interactions and the ability to strategize about the best way to present content in sites and reports for donors in the future.

How long does it take to launch an Ovrture system?

The implementation timeline for launching an Ovrture system is relatively swift. On average, the process takes about 12 weeks, ensuring that you can start leveraging Ovrture’s capabilities efficiently. We’re committed to getting you up and running promptly to enhance your donor engagement efforts.

What roles are ideal for leading Ovrture implementation?

While communicators naturally make strong leads for Ovrture implementation, we recommend building a diverse onboarding team. This team should include individuals from the fundraising team, donor relations, communicators/designers, and advancement services/IT. Collaborating across these roles ensures a holistic and successful implementation. Read more about who you should include in your onboarding team (and how much time you can expect each person to spend).

How does the custom design process work and who oversees the process of building our Ovrture system?

Ovrture places a strong emphasis on design (no cookie-cutter layouts here!), ensuring that your platform spotlights your brand identity only. Our dedicated team of designers takes the lead in crafting a custom design for your Ovrture instance. We work closely with your brand standards and guidelines, as well as follow a detailed and iterative review process with your onboarding team to ensure that the final design aligns with your organization’s visual aesthetics.
