Volunteer Program Manager Government Administration Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Best Volunteer Management System for Government Agencies" August 29, 2018 5.0 We were able to start a citywide volunteer program in large part thanks to . It's enterprise wide functionality allows for standardization of practices, yet enough customization for each unique volunteer program. They have made continuous improvements and updates to the software based on user feedback. Pros is easy to use for both administrators and volunteers. It has a variety of features for volunteers to enter hours. It also has tiered levels of permissions for participants, different types of volunteers, and administrators. It's enterprise-wide functionality is the best I have seen in a volunteer management system. Cons That more people don't use it! I think as it grows it would be exciting to have a user group of government driven volunteer programs that can connect and share best practices. Review Source Response from Squarei Technologies August 31, 2018 Thanks for the fantastic review, Charlotte! It's our pleasure to serve your organization and provide the tools you require to run a city-wide volunteer program. Stay tuned for more helpful updates coming soon! JJ Jana J. Volunteer Services Supervisor Government Administration Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Offero is an elegant solution for our software needs" February 27, 2024 5.0 has given us the perfect solution to our software needs. Pros is such a welcome change from other software programs out there -- it's well planned for incorporating new features in the future and serves our immediate needs better than any other software we tried. We have 29 different volunteer positions in a lot of locations and each team has a different coordinator with different needs. Needles to say, our needs are complicated. But Offero offers an elegant solution with options to grow our program and and the chance for input into new features. It's the perfect software for our needs. Cons There are a few features that we don't use (Adopt-A for example) because we don't have the specific program they were created for and we would benefit from a "user's guide" to help us find ways to incorporate them. While they have drastically improved customization options, I would like to see more options for report customizations in future releases. Alternatives considered [Volgistics](https://www.capterra.com/p/80509/Volgistics-Volunteer-Management/) Reason for choosing Offero One thing offers that puts them head and shoulders above other options is the ability to speak with real people behind the software -- for technical support, product improvement suggestions, and problem solving. Switched from [Volgistics](https://www.capterra.com/p/80509/Volgistics-Volunteer-Management/) We wanted a software that fulfilled more than just basic functions related to volunteer management. Review Source Response from Squarei Technologies March 5, 2024 Hi Jana, thank you for your detailed review. We are so proud to work with your organization. Looking forward to connecting about our Adopter module soon! BA Bailey A. Intern Human Resources Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Intern Review of Engage " October 15, 2019 4.0 Pros I like how user friendly it is. Everything is visually accessible and once you are familiar with the site it get easier and easier to use. Cons How in depth some of the features are. It is hard to get from one point to another on the page if you are unfamiliar with the website. Review Source Response from Squarei Technologies October 3, 2022 Thanks for your review, Bailey! We appreciate your feedback from an intern's perspective, and are so glad you find Offero to be user-friendly. Offero definitely is a robust system with lots of in-depth features—it was designed that way to meet the comprehensive needs of our customers. Thanks again for taking the time to share about your experience with Offero! JC Jo C. Volunteer Services Specialist Government Administration Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Ease of Use" October 3, 2019 5.0 More volunteer are using than with our previous volunteer software. I deal with less problems with this software, giving me more time for other aspects of my job. Pros Simple program, yet fulfills all needs. Reports are a breeze Cons At first it was like learning a new language, but as I used it more the transition became easier Switched from [Volgistics](https://www.capterra.com/p/80509/Volgistics-Volunteer-Management/) Volgistics was too clunky. The support was only online and made it hard to communicate problems. Volgistics was limited and as a end user we were unable to suggest changes or ask for new features. Running reports was hard and time consuming. Review Source Response from Squarei Technologies October 7, 2019 Thank you for the great review, Jo! We are so glad to hear that Offero is easier for your volunteers and allows you more time to do the rest. BT Bailey T. Manager of Volunteer Services Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Streamlined Volunteer Management" November 30, 2022 4.0 Overall, we are very impressed and happy with . This system has been a gamechanger in how we manage our department. Pros Our organization thoroughly enjoys how in-depth the system can track hours, record important information and streamline the process from volunteer application to an individual being an onboarded volunteer. What we like most about this software is it has centralized our process of volunteer management. We are able to use this platform for recruiting, applications, onboarding, recognition, mass communication and volunteer hour documentation. Cons At this time, we wish there were more customizable fields in a volunteer's profile. We'd like to track a few items which the system does not currently have, which would be solved if we had the ability to create our own fields.Also, reports can be limited. We see benefit in being able to have a blank report and select fields to grow customized reports rather than preset reports. Review Source Response from Squarei Technologies December 19, 2022 Thank you for taking the time to review Offero, Bailey! We are so glad to hear that Offero has been a game-changer for how your organization manages volunteers. We'd be happy to look into any additional custom fields you need. Please submit a support request so we can connect further and get this taken care of. We appreciate your feedback and the opportunity to serve your organization. BM Becky M. Statewide Volunteer Coordinator Government Administration Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Major upgrade for managing volunteer programs" September 14, 2022 5.0 We are a large, complex, statewide state government agency that engages thousands of volunteers each year. helps us manage our volunteers, who are key to achieving our mission. Feedback from staff and volunteers is mostly positive, confirming that this software helps save time and make our volunteer programs more effective. Pros is modern, robust, and visually appealing for volunteers, staff, and program participants. This was a major upgrade for us, and some of the tools that have been most beneficial or have the most potential for our organization include: activities, shifts, emailing within the system, courses, awards, tags, and being able to require waivers. We are also looking forward to better utilizing features like custom volunteer applications, feedback requests, and adopters. The staff at Offero are also passionate and dedicated to understanding your organization and ensuring your experience is positive. Cons Because has so many features and functionality, especially compared to our previous software, it has been a big learning curve for staff and volunteers to understand and use the system. Some terminology was also a bit challenging for us to get used to (such as Volunteer Groups and List Management). I would like to be able to search for volunteers by geography more easily, and am interested in more robust options for managing partner organizations. Review Source Response from Squarei Technologies October 4, 2022 Thank you for the fantastic review, Becky! It's great to hear that Offero helps your staff and volunteers operate more efficiently. We are excited to let you know that both of the desired features you mentioned are on the wishlist as enhancements we will be adding in the future.

Pam M. Volunteer Program Coordinator Government Administration Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Offero Comments" August 15, 2018 5.0 The system has given us the ability to combine several programs and communication systems all in to one easy to use system. We can now schedule volunteer projects, shifts, events and community programs all within one system and calendar. Pros We have been working with the system within our department for almost 2 years. It is easy to navigate, user friendly and because it is used by partnering agencies, our shared volunteers are very familiar with the system. Tech support is responsive and always available for questions. Cons It would be great if the system could accept payment for programs. I think more agencies would be interested if this were an option. Review Source Response from Squarei Technologies August 20, 2018 Thank you for your kind review, Pam. Nothing makes us happier than hearing your organization and volunteers enjoy our system and find it user-friendly. We are excited to share that the ability to accept payment for activities is on our product roadmap. Thanks again for taking the time to share your experience with Offero. AC AJ C. Public Engagement Specialist Civic & Social Organization Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Easy and Intuitive to Learn as a New Employee!" October 5, 2019 5.0 Pros As a new employee, learning to use this software system was pretty easy and intuitive for me. If I didn't know where to find something, it was pretty easy to figure out where it was located, even without watching a tutorial. It provides great evaluative and reporting tools which allow me to see the impact of our volunteer-led program easily, as well as being able to see volunteer satisfaction. The system seems to be fairly easy for our volunteers to use as well, even those who are newer to interacting digitally. Also, the customer service for this software is exceptional! Representative is great about answering all of our questions and is receptive to requests for new capabilities for the system. Cons It's hard to say what I don't like, since I am still learning more about the system each day that I use it. I think that the reporting system could be a little more intuitive. But I haven't watched a lot of the tutorials (I usually haven't needed to) so the information could be there. As I mentioned, representative is also great at responding to questions or concerns. Review Source Response from Squarei Technologies October 10, 2019 Thanks for your 5-star review AJ! It's great to hear that Offero has been so easy for you to learn; we strive to make it as intuitive as possible. Thanks for the feedback and the opportunity to serve your organization! Nik B. Web Administrator Government Administration Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Amazing Volunteer & Event Management!!" August 14, 2018 5.0 is great and they are quick to respond to our questions. And it has been amazing to see them add so many enhancements since we starting using them. Pros is fantastic. There isn't anything else like it on the market. We use it daily to help us manage our volunteers and organize our events. Cons I'm getting picky here, but it does take a little while to figure out where all the different administration settings are located. But once you get the hang of it, it is easy to add, edit, and customize everything. Review Source Response from Squarei Technologies August 21, 2018 Thanks so much for the glowing review, Nik! We are happy to hear that you are enjoying the system and our enhancements. We will be taking your feedback on the location of the admin settings into consideration.

It is efficient and easy to use, which helps to revolutionize how we set up and administer programming.

November 7, 2018 5.0 Pros It was great to have everything in one place, from volunteer sign ups to participant registrants.

I also really appreciate the "feedback feature" where you are able to ask any questions and send screenshots of the issue or question you have.

Also, when I had an strange issue on my iPad, I was able to talk to a real person on the team. Pros Using this system as a volunteer across different organizations along the Front Range has been a breeze. I love how easy it is to track my hours and mileage, and pulling up reports is a snap. Plus, seeing who else is signed up for activities helps us coordinate rides to more remote sites. Cons My only wish? More activity options to choose from!

We really appreciated the customer support and the added functionalities as it was fine-tuned over time. Pros helped me eliminate the need for lots of other software. We were able to bring our program offerings into one place and do most of what we needed using a single platform. Cons Because our organization used the software across multiple programs it was difficult to get it to work for ALL of our needs. That being said, it was still a huge improvement over what we used before. Review Source Response from Squarei Technologies October 16, 2019 Thank you for your kind review, Jamie.
