On January 17th, the nonprofit, technology, and financial communities learned that Blackbaud was beginning the steps to acquire Convio , whose board had approved the purchase. This news came as a surprise to most people in those communities, and triggered much discussion in both traditional media and social media channels.

The 2012 Nonprofit Technology Conference (NTC) was the 12th conference that I have attended (it had earlier reiterations). Every year it is like attending a family reunion. I have some many friends and colleagues that I only get to see once a year at the NTC. Several individuals in the nonprofit technology community were recognized.

Yesterday the news was that Blackbaud had laid off 50 employees it acquired when it bought Convio in May. In what was said to be an unrelated development, they also announced the departure of Gene Austin, the former CEO of Convio. The Blackbaud/Convio staff I spoke with seemed taken aback by this decision.

When I accepted the job at Convio, I negotiated that it would be okay for me to blog. Convio respected and understood the ecosystem it was a part of. Organizations on Common Ground could use the very same technology that went into making Common Ground and build on top of it specific for their own mission and operations.

CRM (which I am defining rather loosely, rather than tightly, for the purpose of this post – as the tool or set of tools used to track constituents, donations, perhaps even events and volunteers) are arguably the most important technology tools that nonprofits use.

Nonprofits that are currently using Common Ground Enterprise, Luminate, and Convio Online Marketing are also nervous. Luminate was the top contender for one of my clients, but they’re strongly considering eliminating Blackbaud from further consideration. I doubt they’re the only ones. That discussion continued on my blog.
