The Diabsolut team has been extremely responsive and collaborative throughout the process. They kept us on track, addressed issues quickly, and made what could have been a very difficult transition much smoother.

The Challenge

YMCA Greater Toronto’s CSS relied on a legacy database that was slow, costly, and difficult to customize. As programs and partner agencies grew, the system limited reporting, flexibility, and the ability to scale.

Pain Points

  • An aging, high-cost platform with limited flexibility for customization and system integrations
  • Slow system performance that hindered reporting and timely data access for partner agencies
  • Fragmented learning management experience that reduced usability and efficiency
  • Inability to easily support evolving needs, including bilingual (English/French) users
  • High administrative effort required to maintain and operate the existing system

Requirements

  • A modern, scalable platform with strong configuration capabilities and minimal need for custom development
  • Improved system performance to enable faster reporting and reliable data access
  • Seamless integration with existing systems and partner environments
  • Support for bilingual (English/French) experiences across users and content
  • A unified, modern learning management experience to improve adoption and long-term usability

The Solution

Partnering with Diabsolut, YMCA GTA transitioned its Client Support Services program to Salesforce using the Nonprofit Success Pack, Experience Cloud, and integrated tools like Jotform and Salesforce LMS. The solution delivered a faster, more flexible platform while supporting change management and partner adoption.

The Results

A step toward a more connected organization: Updating the CSS program on Salesforce supported YMCA GT’s broader goal of bringing programs and departments onto a shared platform—making it easier to work together, share insights, and scale impact in support of their mission to strengthen communities and improve the lives of individuals and families across the Greater Toronto Area.
