I was very impressed with the access I had to get questions answered promptly. Suggestions were given on how we could have a more successful auction.
I received a couple complaints about fees that the customer wasn't expecting when they were charged.
The idea of helping fundraisers have the tools we need at an affordable price-point is really nice, especially for orgs as small as ours.
We ended up having to do a messy hybrid of online and in-person bids, but this put our online bidders at a severe disadvantage.
The concierge service to set up a campaign was a charge but well worth the investment for our first big fundraiser - now we are equipped for future success as well as our recent amazing results.
It can be confusing for people as to how they can NOT pay for the suggested charge when they are exiting the system and want to pay for their auction item or ticket.
Congrats on having such a useful and beautiful platform for non-profits to use. Money is always an issue, and having low costs to raise $$ is idea.
Look elsewhere or turn off the charges to donors.
I loved the feature where we could auto bill all winning bidders in lieu of tracking down bidders to collect payment. The system was turn-key and easy to use.
I also had an issue and was disappointed that I had to use chat support over a phone call because it was not included in the package I purchased.
No financial surprises, sending invites is easy. Admins will appreciate the ease of managing the status of winning bids with downloadable general reports.
Our only issue we had was some people had issues getting thru the firewall to be able to pay online at the end, or even be able to bid.
The auction was easy to set up and I was able to figure out through the step-by-step instructions how to connect it to my PayPal account. It's great for the price and overall worked great.
I was worried about the checkout process because you can't preview it. It didn't look quite like the youtube videos online, but it worked.
Bid Beacon has been the best choice for our organization's needs and has made it possible to run our silent auction more easily and with fantastic results.
I don’t like the user interface being different from the administration.
