Chair Fund-Raising ### "My first 8 weeks with Groupfire" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 9/10 November 29, 2018 The app has the advantage of lessening the number of emails that I receive about programs. Best of all, it is accessible to me and is in my “back pocket”. It makes it more efficient for me to register for an event and to have it on my calendar. The app also makes it easy to network with others. Pros Mainly it’s ease of use. Though it is new to our group the feedback has been very positive so far. Being able to do so many things within the app should really help strengthen our events. Knowing who is going to what even and being able to communicate so easily with everyone is a huge deal for our group. Plus we will now be able to register and at the same time see who else has. Cons Nothing so far but again, it’s fairly new to our group. Review source Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site.

Before GroupFire, we received so many emails about meetings and had to log into a portal or request a document of group contact information. I love being able to us the app to look up contact information, get updates, and manage and review meeting schedules and details. I was so impressed when it was rolled out - so easy and intuitive to use! Cons I'm not sure I can provide something that I like least. GroupFire has helped our group move from email and sharing MS Office documents to communicating and updating each other through an easy to use app!
