Great Solution for Small Non Profits
It's made keep track of and mailing donation receipts a million times easier and has proven to be a good alternative.
Pros
Very Nice Interface and a simple system for entering and searching donor records.
Designed with non profits in mind.
Cons
Multi-item donations are annoying to input due to a single line field for donated goods.

Love LGL database
Pros
Simple to use, amazing support/help team, and intuitive overall.
Cons
There are a few export features missing (like including multiple specific date ranges for a donor to compare FY gifts over 5 years). I'd also love for an add-on where you can create a sort of thermometer that updates real-time on a webpage when compared to a specific campaign in the database.

Quickly Outgrew LGL
Our organization moved from Excel to Little Green Light and we used LGL for several years. However, we quickly outgrew it. It was ok in the beginning when we weren't generating a lot of income and didn't need to run many reports. However, the more we grew, the more LGL did not work for us and we ended up switching to something else.
Pros
Inexpensive, good for small organizations who are just starting out
Cons
Reporting was not intuitive or easy to use. Lacks fundraising and email marketing capabilities that come with other competitors.

Comprehensive Database Management
I'm very happy with LGL - uses it daily for donor tracking, donations, and thank you letters as well as events, appeals and campaigns.
Pros
I like that it's modular so you can use the parts you need and develop detailed history on donors.
Cons
some of the screens are too spread out and a bit clunky. could be streamlined a bit
