Not satisfactory, support is extremely slow and the app doesn't work well.

Pros

Easy to configure, you can set up the raffle very quickly, but later is a headache.

Cons

It doesn't work correctly, sometimes it show a HTML version of the widget and user can't register.

It helps you run giveaways easily.

Pros

It's easy to set up and collect emails, grow Twitter followers and add other conditions.

Cons

The features are limited for the free plan, and the paid plan is too expensive in my opinion.

Pros

Rafflecopter allows me to host reviews on my blog and allows those who wish to participate and easy way to enter. It's easy for me to set up the various ways to enter the giveaways I host. I like that I can choose to add my own option as well.

Cons

I would like if it were a free application to use.

I have been using them for years. I recommend them to my friends or family who need to host giveaways as it is an easy and cheap/free way to host a giveaway.

Pros

I have used Rafflecopter for giveaways for years on my blog. I love how easy it is to set up a new giveaway and how it does all the lifting to figure out who won the giveaway.

Cons

A lot of the options are for paid users only. So if you want the full experience you will either need to manually create required actions, otherwise, pay for the prebuilt required actions.

Contacted support, showed them videos and images and they still refused to believe it. I provided it using 2 iphones. The fact is, it works and shows normally when using anything BUT an iphone. Compare how your rafflecopter looks on your website through different browsers then go look at it through an IPHONE. You will see the difference. They aren't the only company that has this issue gleam does too. The only company that doesn't is promosimple. I tried to talk with them and explain but the company just refused to help. They denied the videos, they requested link of where raffle copter was embedded. I gave them it and they just kept repeating give us the link when i already had done 3 times. The support don't understand their own product or how to troubleshoot. I worked for years in technical support and app development so I know how to test. This company has not tested their product. I cannot recommend their product.

Pros

Looks good but doesn't work with IPHONES

Cons

Doesn't work when viewed through an IPHONE ( 8 or 11 )

It was very good for what I needed. Would use again.

Pros

I used Rafflecopter once for a giveaway and I found that it kept my giveaway organized for me and saved me time.

Cons

I didn't find any cons with the software, I did feel that the pricing was a little steep especially if you don't run giveaways a lot.

Pros

This was sooo easy to learn. I do not super tech savvy but I was able to learn in a couple of days. I have a personal blog and I operate on a shoestring budget so this was affordable. I like that you can put many ways to win on the raffle. I would heartily recommend.

Cons

I actually like pretty much everything. It may not be.the.solution for a large company or.blog.

My overall experience with Rafflecopter is great because, now, it only takes me five minutes to set up a giveaway form.

Pros

I love this software because hosting giveaways with it became so simple and easy. I used to make giveaways before I discovered this software and it was exhausting for me to pick winners and arrange shipment for them.

Cons

I would like this software to have some kind of checking ability if the entries are real because anyone can tick the task and say they have done it when, in reality, they didn't. The software should be able to check that and decide if the entry is true or not.

My overall experience is positive as I have created some killer giveaways for sponsors using this platform and love using it whoever I set up a new giveaway.

Pros

I love the ease of using this platform and love the results of hosting my many giveaways using this platform.

Cons

The only thing is the cost. There are features that I want and I have to upgrade to receive them but other than that.... it is perfection.

Reasons for choosing Rafflecopter

I chose Rafflecopter as a recommendation form a friend.

Should the company and I ever host another raffle, we'll definitely go with this product.

Pros

I like this software a lot. It helped my company and I with our raffle for free editing for new authors. It's intuitive and easy to use.

Cons

Unfortunately, viral sharing of your raffle can only be accessed through the most expensive plan the company has.
