We provide “Software-as-a-Service” for nonprofits—as a service.

Pangea Foundation is leveraging the power of the Web to crush the barriers keeping nonprofits and the people they serve from experiencing the strategic benefits of transformational technologies. We employ the unique value of Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) to democratize the access nonprofits have to enterprise-class software. Leading experts have called SaaS a disruptive technology. We couldn’t agree more! SaaS is flattening the old paradigm that has stood in the way of nonprofit advancement and resultant positive impact. SaaS is enabling both large and small nonprofits to cost-effectively leverage sophisticated database-driven software with rapid deployment, instant upgrades, and low ongoing costs. And SaaS is increasingly becoming the technological foundation driving nonprofit innovation. Our goal is to make enterprise SaaS easily accessible to nonprofits across America. That’s because we’ve seen firsthand how SaaS can make a difference in people’s lives. And we want you to see it too, so you can leverage the power of SaaS to make an even bigger difference than you already have. Learn more about nonprofit Software-as-a-Service.

Nonprofit Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery—built in.

Many nonprofits have a disaster recovery plan in place. Yet, as regional catastrophes in recent years have demonstrated, the scale and implications of a disaster in today’s interconnected world have ambushed many nonprofits beyond what they had expected and proven that conventional approaches to disaster planning are inadequate. Without a doubt, the disruption of IT services could be devastating to your organization, leaving the people you serve without vital support services. In a world where nonprofits are increasingly being called on to serve people 24x7x365, the key is having a nonprofit business continuity strategy that includes information continuity, assured high availability, and reliable nonprofit disaster recovery.

Trusted information security—priceless peace of mind.

We recognize that information security isn’t just a line on your evaluation form. It’s central to the integrity of your software solution. That’s why at Pangea Foundation we’ve made a conscientious pledge to put information security at the center of everything we do. From a physical facilities security perspective, a system security perspective, a network security perspective, and an application security perspective, Pangea Foundation’s information security measures are on par with the best civilian organizations in the world. With world-class data centers, advanced network intrusion detection systems, the leading SSL encryption technologies, the latest firewall technologies, and other proprietary security products, Pangea Foundation leverages many of the same technologies and hosting facilities as those used by government agencies and premier companies around the world.

Developed by Fortify® Software, this unique “internal firewall” monitors and protects your software application from the inside-out to protect you from even the most sophisticated intrusions. The result: unparalleled security and the priceless peace of mind that comes from knowing that your software is being fortified by the same application-layer security solution used by organizations like these:
