Kidz Africa
Software Development in Cape Town

KidzAfrica is a BEE-rated software development company that specialises in the development of comprehensive solutions pertaining to grant-making and fundraising for organisations that need to capture, manage and report on fundraising activities and stakeholders.

The Adoption of our new project management IT system, Development Manager (DevMan), will be completed in The use of this custom-designed software will continue to result in improved efficiency and a decrease in funding turnaround time and, crucially will provide us with tighter controls through robust security features. The system needs in each were quite different but DevMan was the perfect choice for all, adapting to the requirements of the organisations’ and their outputs. DevMan is an affordable system that integrates into and talks to your organisations existing financial and administrative systems, keeping you connected to your current and historical data. No system is ever finished and the DevMan team keep abreast with upcoming technological developments to ensure their system is the best it can be for their clients. The DevMan team know their product thoroughly, respond quickly when there are problems and are patient and very supportive. What particularly impresses me is about DevMan is how it continually adapts to changing needs and trends. The cloud-based DevMan is mature, richly endowed with features and much of the customization is done from the frontend. Kidz have a thorough knowledge of the fund-raising business in an African context. Most of the time taken to setup is concentrated in getting good data from the disparate legacy systems we had. So far, we are happy with the software and continue with migrating data and customization. The KidzAfrica team is dedicated to excellent customer service and always available to assist with queries and training when needed. It is comprehensive in its capture and its management and search capabilities make for an utterly professional database. Not only is it nearly infinitely customisable, but the DevMan team have always been willing to tailor the system to individual wants and needs. At SOS Children’s Villages, we thoroughly enjoy working with the DevMan team. They are always willing to assist us with queries and planning new and improved ways to go forward.
