### "Highly recommend"

September 18, 2021

5.0

Love it. Thanks SignUp!

Pros

SignUp.com makes volunteer management a joy rather than a chore.

Cons

There is sometimes a lag between volunteer responses and the notices I receive. It's not a big deal, but has occasionally resulted in me getting information a bit late.

### "Signup was a great experience and help."

May 11, 2026

5.0

I am not computer savvy and this website was VERY USER FRIENDLY. I would definitely use this again and recommend it to everyone. I did not need customer support fortunately and emails were sent to individuals so not exposing others email information.

Pros

The site is FREE. There are other "pay for" options within but I did not need them for this purpose. It showed me how many registered, and I was able to lock registration and send messages to registrants. The provided QR code was a great plus too.

Cons

The least liked aspect were the ads. I was afraid it would deter people, but, it was free and it didn't stop people from signing on.

Alternatives considered

[SignUpGenius](https://www.capterra.com/p/135392/SignUpGenius/)

Reason for choosing SignUp.com

I did not purchase sign up as I used the free option and it was wonderful for my needs. AGAIN, for the following questions I used the FREE option.

### "Quickest and Best Sign-up"

August 10, 2026

5.0

Signup.com provides an easy interface, helpful reminders, and very quick sign-up with no issues. This was my first time using it instead of a paper sign-up for our student practical exam.

Pros

I am so very pleased with this program. Graduate students were signed up for our practical exam in minutes. There was no paper passing or issues. Loved the QR code and link provided for ease of use. You made it so easy for me to do my job. I am your newest fan!

Cons

There was nothing that I liked least about signup.com. The whole experience was user friendly, quick, and easy to set up and respond.

### "Another Software to Get People to Sign Up for stuff"

September 6, 2019

3.0

Used Sign Up for alot of stuff until I discovered Sign Up Genius. Sign Up doesn't have the bells and whistles, including collecting payment, like Sign Up Genius does. Sign Up would be great for the most simplistic of sign up lists; nothing to big or with too many selections/options to pick from. Wish the website site had more of a design. It's rather blank looking with just words,, not very appealing. But the functionality ultimately does what it says it will do (and for FREE) which is good all around.

Pros

You can easily transfer an event from one person to another person to be the owner of.

Cons

It doesn't have many special features and setting up repeating items is not as simple as it could be

Review Source

Response from SignUp.com

October 7, 2019

Hi Kim - Thanks for being a leader at your school and for taking the time to share your feedback, For clarification, SignUp does allow you to collect funds on the site, and we know how important budgets are so we only pass on the processing fee and don't charge fees ourselves (unlike SignUp Genius charges.). I'm sorry we didn't make it more obvious, but we absolutely do offer a near-instant way to schedule a series of appointment spots - like for parent-teacher conferences, and to set up repeating schedules. Please click Help at the top of the site to learn how or to contact our support team. Since most parents (80%+) will be signing up on smartphones, our screens are designed and tested for clarity and user success. I hope you'll give us a try again in the future.

### "Great time saver"

September 22, 2026

4.0

It is so easy and convient. When I had a parent miss their conference it was quick and easy for them to reschedule using Sign-Up.

Pros

It saved me hours of phone calls, creating schedules, and sending home fliers to schedule parent teacher conferences.

Cons

When the parents booked a conference, I couldn't see which parent belonged to which student. There may have been an option for me to find it, but I didn't.

### "Save time and effort with SignUp.com "

August 26, 2025

5.0

Signup.com saves me a lot of planning and contact time. I don't need to shop around for any other system because Signup does it all.

Pros

Signup.com is a time efficient way to organize volunteers for events and both short term and long term programs. The system simplified how we make contact with people through email and text messaging. Invitations to participate and reminders to those who have signed up are automatic. It is also a secure system that provides privacy to my contacts and does not share their information with outsiders. We have used Signup for 5 years at my not-for-profit organization and we upgrade to ad free for 3 months during our busy summer season. I definitely recommend investing in the upgrade! Edits are easy to make and all of the descriptions to our spots can be modified as needed. Generating printable lists and reports to use at our volunteer events are ready in a click of a button. When I forget what steps to take to find what I'm looking for, or have a question, the program has complete and simple instructions that are easy to follow. We also get monthly, in advance reminders of the billing so that makes it easy to add or remove upgrades when we need to.

Cons

I am of the generation that grew up prior to computer technology so for me there is no such thing as "intuitive". I sometimes just click on things until I find the menu for the report and information I am looking for. Many of our volunteers are also older/retired people from this by-gone era and they need some hand holding to use the online sign up.

### "Great platform for educators"

February 13, 2026

5.0

Very helpful! My parent volunteers show up on time, have automatic reminders for their position and I have the right number through first come first serve opportunities.

Pros

Thank you for offering this service for free to educators!! I am SO grateful for your platform and truly appreciate your service. I set up my volunteer slots at the beginning of the school year and have little to no maintenance on my side to keep volunteers organized. They receive automatic reminders from Signup.com which helps them show up on time and ready to volunteer which saves me time during my busy school year!!

Cons

The free version has ads which is not ideal but I would rather have the ads then pay myself! I appreciate not having appropriate ads for parents.

December 1, 2025

5.0

It's easy to setup and use, and if you're willing to have a few ads on the pages and emails, it's free. If you have a budget, the cost for ad-free is very reasonable.

Pros

We have used SignUp (free version) for years to organize volunteer shifts for our CSA pickup site. We appreciate the ease of use and that the ads are not too obtrusive.

Cons

Really didn't have any problems or anything negative to say. It's just an easy to use way to organize volunteers.

January 24, 2026

5.0

We have used signup.com for several years during our quilting retreat weekend. We use the app so quilters can sign up for massages on different days, different times and masseuses. It's pretty intuitive to set up and use.

Pros

Easy to use for nonprofits, free, expandable for different uses, fun final interface options. Even oldet users are able to figure it out!

Cons

Can't copy and paste or drag down to fill in rows with common data. sometimes the emails/ads fet annoying but can be ignored.

April 13, 2026

Pros

I want to thank you for providing such a great service. I have not used scheduling services much in the past. We have one we use for weekly ministries, but I needed something for Adoration signups. I found it very easy to navigate and edit. I plan to use it in the future when Father gives me more assignments. :) MaryRose MaryRose Carlow Administrative Assistant Prince Of Peace Catholic Church

Cons

I do not have any cons. I found Sign up to be very easy to navigate, especially when I had to come back and make corrections or updates.

I linked it. It very easy to setup and templates and ideas were available if I needed guidance.

Pros

It was very easy to setup. I was able to create a link with the number of spots and decription.

Cons

The price and the ability to share rights unless you upgrade. Nonprofits have little funds.

I will definitely use Sign Up again and tell others who may be looking for a tool like this.

Pros

Sign up was a great find. It was easy to set up, and none of my students had difficulty signing up. I liked also how it sent an email reminder.

Cons

I never ran into difficulties when I used it.

### "A Boon for Volunteer Organizations."

December 20, 2021

5.0

I am technically challenged and there are many instances where I need to ask for help. The SignUp team is quick to respond and provide clarity in their responses.

Pros

It is easy to use and I appreciate that SignUp automatically contacts my users with reminders and if there are any changes

Cons

The advertisements that we realize is necessary since this is a free tool. We can get it advertisement free and might do that in the future. Covid has limited our resources.

### "A time and lifesaver"

June 6, 2023

5.0

I have been using SignUp for about five years or longer. It's been a lifesaver. We are a small organization and I rely on volunteers. SignUp functions as my admin assistant when we solicit volunteers for a community outreach or fundraising event. This program is great! Thanks!

Pros

Keeps me organized with little or no effort. SignUp does it all. It notifies, tracks, and reminds volunteers who sign up.

Cons

Too many adds with the free program. I've not paid for SignUp. As our nonprofit expands, I will research to learn the other featuresSignUp offers.

Reason for choosing SignUp.com

I did not utilize an alternative product.

### "SignUp.com is excellent"

February 8, 2022

5.0

I am using this software with a nonprofit volunteer organization. We need volunteers to assist students in a program called "Trout in the Classroom" that needs volunteers pretty much Monday through Fridays during April and May. The software allows volunteers to easily sign up (takes less than 30 seconds) and keeps track of the number of volunteers for any given day. It has been very helpful, and I think increased the number of volunteers.

Pros

I was able to set up a sign up for volunteers quite easily. The program allows me to enter information about the event (date, time, location, number of volunteers needed, and a brief description of volunteer requirements). The program tracks the number of volunteers and sends an immediate confirmatory email to persons who signed up as well as a follow up reminder a couple of days before the event.

Cons

I couldn't find anything that I dislike about this software. It is easy for me to enter data and very easy for volunteers to sign up.

When I have a program like SignUp.com, I have much more time to do my job more efficiently.

Pros

This school year was my first time using SignUp.com and I LOVED IT! It made a huge difference in organizing all our parent volunteers throughout the year. They even received reminder emails from SignUp.com. Wow! Thank you so much for having this available!

Cons

I haven't discovered any weaknesses in this program.

### "One of the best tools ever for volunteer coordinators!"

August 26, 2017

5.0

As a volunteer coordinator working with hundreds of volunteers 15 to 20 times a year, I treat it as a multi-use tool - a worksheet, a roster, a plan and a summary or report post-event. It makes managing volunteers on paper so easy. At a glance, I can see how many more I need and for what task, day or event.

Pros

1) intuitive 2) it doesn't ask for a lot of unnecessary info from volunteers 3) it's quick and easy to sign up large groups 4) you can attach a volunteer waiver with the paid subscriptions 5) you have the ability to print out a roster, a check-in form or a summary

Cons

A minor fix - I would just like to see the ability to use a single email address to sign up multiple groups. For example, a coach who signed up her track team to volunteer, can also use the same email address to sign up her youth church group for the same event. Right now, the same coach needs to use two different email addresses to be able to do that.

### "SignUp is so helpful!"

September 20, 2022

5.0

It makes my job of finding volunteer staff much easier.

Pros

I thoroughly enjoy using SignUp for finding volunteers for a concession stand we run at the Nebraska State Fair. It lets me know who has signed up, sends reminders to them and a summary for the week. I also like the message feature as it enables us to get in touch with all of our workers efficiently. Thank you for making this available to us

Cons

Some of my volunteers could not figure out how to sign up or delete a sign up they had made. I believe it was user inexperience.

### "Easy and Quick"

October 20, 2022

5.0

Signup.com saves me time, because it manages my paperwork and keeps everything neatly organized on their website. It allows individuals to choose what time/date works best for them and emails confirmations for me.

Pros

I love that I can use signup.com to have parents and students sign up for a time to complete parent-teacher conferences. I am an online teacher and signup.com makes it super quick to put together an event, in this case conferences, with individual slots people can sign up for that work for them. I put together a list of possible options, and, using my specific event link which I email to parents, signup.com directs them to choose a slot. Once the slot is full, it is unavailable for anyone else. Signup.com saves me so much time. I can put together an event in 5 -10 minutes, and signup.com manages it for me. I can then check who has signed up and confirm with them their slot.

Cons

There is nothing I do not like. I would recommend adding more picture designs to spice up the invites.

### "Parent Teacher conference Go To"

February 5, 2023

5.0

I use signup every year for parent conferences, and love it! It is easy to set up, easy to navigate, and parents find it very convenient. The reminders to parents and updates to teachers are also helpful.

Pros

It's very easy and quick to set up for conferences. It keeps me updated on all activity or on any changes, and provides an organized printout of the event's families and time slots. It gives parents flexibility in choosing a time slot and in changing their time slot.

Cons

I have no complaints on this product. There were no glitches, and it worked seamlessly for the event.

Reason for choosing SignUp.com

I liked it the first time I used it and never looked at anything else.

### "Excellent"

October 12, 2022

5.0

I have used this program for three years and recommend it to other teachers.

Pros

I have been using signup.com to allow my students parent to easily schedule parent conferences with me for the last three years. I love how easy it is to post a link for them to click to sign up, how it sends the parents reminder emails about their conference date and time, and how they can easily cancel and reschedule when needed. It has made a timely task into an easy and clear task for parents and teachers. I share and recommend this resource to teachers around me regularly. Thank you!

Cons

Having a slot for parents to write their child's name versus just their name when signing up would be helpful for scheduling with classrooms/school communities.

September 26, 2019

4.0

Overall, I like that it allows me an easier way to communicate with Parents. I am looking forward to looking into using it for field trip sign ups in the future.

Pros

I like that I am able to organize an event or a classroom need electronically. I am able to send it out without paper reminders on classroom doors. It allows parents to see and fill needs with less constant badgering from me!

Cons

It took me a while to figure out what I was doing with it. The interface can be a bit tricky. I do wish the time slots, and descriptions were easier to manipulate.
