### "Ivolunteer at Burning Man"

November 19, 2024

5.0

I bought ivolunteer for scheduling workshifts in our Burning Man Theme Camp (Spanky's Wine Bar), after an extensive evaluation of roughly 100 packages for scheduling. Some were extremely rigid and lacking in critical functionality. Others would be great for a hospital chain, with an astronomical cost. Ivolunteer hit the sweeet spot. I also like that I can pay for 3 months of usage, and then put it to sleeep for 9 months, with everything still set up when I bring it back to life.

Pros

Incredible flexibility at a super-reasonable cost, with great support for the couple of questions I've had.

Cons

Requires a functioning internet connection, which could be a problem before Starlink. Still, it works great and price is amazing.

### "A Good platform for large events"

September 4, 2025

4.0

Pros

I like the ability to schedule so many people on multiple days. I can plan out multiple events and schedule them all.

Cons

I think the user face could be more graphic friendly, and wish I could make the headers be more descriptive.

Couldn't schedule multiple things across multiple days

Hi Janell, thanks for your review! You can add your own graphics and formatted text to your home page and event headers. To customize an event header, go to Event Details &amp; Actions &gt; Layout and click the Instructions at Top button. Or to quickly add an Event logo, click Set Event Logo. On the Preview tab, you can also click any of the pencil icons to edit that area. Please let us know if we can be of further help.

### "Great Company!"

September 20, 2024

4.0

Our overall experience with iVolunteer has been positive, and the company has been easy to work with and so helpful to answer our questions and offer advice when needed. We appreciate the long-running relationship we've had with the company and how it has been able to help us with tracking and reporting student hours.

Pros

I appreciate their customer service and quick response from their support team. Our ministry has been with the company for a long time, and iVolunteer has been very accommodating and helpful regarding our needs and request.

Cons

The challenges we've had with iVolunteer are some of our students find it difficult to find their volunteer hours because of the steps it takes to get there when they haven't logged into the system for a while. It has also been challenging for our Student Volunteer Coordinator to track and process volunteer hours for over 1,000 students.

### "Great solution for managing volunteers"

November 19, 2024

5.0

We've used for 8 years and it works well for our needs.

Pros

It aligns to the needs of our non-profit organization. We can manage all of our events quite well in the framework. It enables us to manage the database of our volunteers too.

Cons

Could have more customizations in the app, in the data itself and in reporting. Ad-hoc reporting would be great (customize reports to exactly what data you need).

Reason for choosing ivolunteer.com

It was the best fit for the requirements that we had - managing our events, data and volunteers.

We did a trial of it and it seemed to meet our needs better than Eventbrite.

### "iVolunteer Review: Great for those new to volunteer management. "

November 26, 2024

4.0

Good for medium sized events especially when tracking individual volunteers.

Pros

It is a comprehensive, nuts to bolts, volunteer management system. Almost everything (feature-wise) you could want.

Cons

It can be overwhelming at times when you start in the home screen.

Alternatives considered

[RunSignup](https://www.capterra.com/p/228577/RunSignup/)

Reason for choosing ivolunteer.com

I could not use Runsignup since I was using a different system for registrations.

Switched from

Needed a more robust system for volunteer management other than collecting data.

### "Great system...very efficient and easy to use"

October 21, 2024

5.0

Gamechanger in setting up events and scheduling. Late changes are easy to update. Creating groups and sending emails was very simple. It does everything I need it to do.

Pros

Ease of use and efficiency. It is also very flexible to make last minute changes to scheduling. Email system is smooth and easy to use. It keeps our events up to date and our users well informed.

Cons

None, every issue was solved. Most challenges were due to my lack of experience in IT, and even then, the system was not hard to figure out.

### "Staying in contact with volunteers is easy with ivolunteer"

September 19, 2024

5.0

Once I was shown how to set things up, ivolunteer is very easy to use. I use the subsets when I target emails to volunteers who are interested in specific tasks.

Pros

What I especially appreciate is the customer support. Whenever I have a problem or question, it is resolved or answered quickly.

Cons

I wish that the emails were archived so they could be searched. I currently save everything I email to a folder where I can access the content.

Switched from

[sureFleet](https://www.capterra.com/p/124503/sureFleet/)

(We actually did not use an event planning product... but I picked one just to include this info) I came to ivolunteer for event management, and wanted to consolidate our volunteer list, rather than have a separate list. Groups.io only gave us email... but it did archive our emails, which I wish ivolunteer did.

Thanks for your review, Faith! Good news: ivolunteer recently added the ability to view past emails sent from your account. In your Activity Log, you will now see a View link next to the record for the email. Please let us know if you have any questions.

### "Best free volunteer sign-up platform"

November 20, 2024

5.0

I did a bit of online "research" and landed on ivolunteer as the option that worked best for coordinating the volunteers that signed up to help with our haunted house fundraiser. I love that it is user friendly and free. It was perfect for our needs.

Pros

How user friendly it was. It was very easy to set up multiple different roles across multiple different days/times. It was the best and easiest option to utilize for our event.

Cons

I wish it had the option to automatically generate a QR code that would lead to the sign-up page. Everybody uses QR codes now and other companies often charge to create them.

Hi, Amanda, thanks for sharing your thoughts! Good news: both your signup sheets and your home page have auto-generated QR codes that you can save to your computer. You'll find them in the upper right corner of Event settings and under Organization > Organization Details > Home pages. Please let us know if you need more info.

### "Game Changer for our Ministry"

November 24, 2024

iVolunteer is a game changer. It has made things so much easier.

Pros

Ease of creating the sign ups and keeping up with volunteers. Also allows me to easily reach reach volunteers for a particular event or day as needed. Makes the time that I have to work on assigning volunteers much easier.

Cons

Took me some time to get a used to it. I had a person who had used ivolunteer before to guide me through setting it up.

### "iVolunteer makes teachers lives easier"

November 20, 2024

5.0

Pros

This program makes it easy for parents to sign up for volunteering or parent conferences.

Cons

There is a learning curve to finding things when logged in on the administrative side of things. Luckily our school has an amazing coordinator who has helped us.

Very good! It’s a wonderful tool to manage everything in one place

Pros

The dashboard and that you can create name tags

Cons

### "Love, love, love it!"

September 4, 2024

5.0

It is easy to use, easy to update and easy for volunteers to use.

Pros

Ease of use. Compared to the circus that was our volunteer sign-up fair, this is so much simpler and more efficient, removing the need for volunteers to show up in person to sign up to volunteer.

Cons

No complaints, really. The only challenge is for the rare person that does not have email.

Extremely Helpful and Organized. Thank you!

Pros

Wonderful way to coordinate, track and communicate to your volunteers. And help is readily available. I volunteered to be the coordinator for around 100 volunteers ONLY if the organization enrolled in the program.

Cons

Sometimes I need to call for help because I am technically challenged.
