This was my first experience constructing an online auction and this software. Setting the auction up was easy with the help of the Auction Wizard which guided me step by step.

It is easy to use and the customer service is top notch. This is the 4th year we have used Bidding Owl and have been more than pleased each time.

Easy to close out the items and locate shipping information for winning bidders. Connects with PayPal for easy and quick payment.

Also, the information on how to bid using increments was difficult for people.

The customer service was amazing - even on the weekends.

I haven't found anything that I would complain about.

At first i was afraid to click on some of the menu buttons for fear of what might happen.

Fabulous return for investment. Would recommend and use again.

I was disappointed that there is not an automated way within the software to create display bid description sheets automatically.

Bidding was easy, fun and the proxy bidding was fantastic.

Super easy and fun way to set-up an auction to fundraise for our non-profit.

It seems customers are unsure of the check out process some times and then also don't leave their correct mailing address.

Previously we were only able to reach people at in-person events and with the ease of use, registration process, and ease of sharing to the world, we have raised 20 times as much money.

Providing QR codes to each item is  a miss. We had to manually do this for our event, where other services provide it.

Overall it was a great resource for our stopgap online auction. It was quick and easy to set-up, and you can't beat the fees, especially for a small nonprofit and small auction.

Our overall experience with Bidding Owl was fantastic. The customer service they offer is truly top-notch.

Online auction is taking the place of our regular silent auction. It is a great substitute and we are happy to have it.

This is still a great platform for fundraising events and reaches  people beyond my hometown. Once the online auction starts, the event runs itself complete with checkout procedures.

We will definitely be using Bidding Owl again and recommending it to other non profits in similar situations like us. Now that we know how wonderful online auctions are we’ll never go back to paper.

This is clean and clear and attractive. Technology is not a strong suit for me, I have had to call the help desk 3 times in the last 18 months.

I would definitely recommend it to others looking for a easy to use system for setting up an auction.

I like the ease of usr and abilty to reuse information. Time is so important when you are a small operation.

Customer service was THE BEST!!!  No matter how many times I called with nit-picky questions, they were friendly and patient. They always had an answer when I screwed something up.

I have been very impressed with the rapid response by the customer service team.

Their price point for non-profits can not be beat. Personal one-on-one service and a great piece of software.

I like how it is a simple platform that allows you to get an auction up and running very quickly.

Absolutely fantastic for fundraising and the best customer service.

With tools like the 'auto bid up to a certain amount', people are more willing to spend money, meaning we raise more.

Brilliant Concept and Excellent for Fundraising.

I love the ease of setting up individual auction items. The item management system is very easy to use, which makes my job so much easier.

We are new to using an online system for our auction, and I have been very pleased with BiddingOwl.com.

The overall experience has been awesome. BiddingOwl was completely intuitive.

This is absolutely wonderful. The layout is so easy on the eyes.

They are polite, helpful and quick to respond. We look forward to utilizing this software again in the future.

Was great and easy to use. Also it was extremely affordable compared to the competition.

We had bidding wars for our items and raised much more than we ever did using silent auctions. We have had nothing but compliments on how fun and easy the site was for them to use.

The issues for me come in the layout of the back-end, and the fact that they do not provide any video tutorials and refuse to do a GoToMeeting to show you how it works.

Nice easy to use interfaces, very good support. All in all a good choice if you quickly want to start auctioning things.

The software is powerful and it suits our needs very well.

Best auction platform when you consider the price.

Customer service is fantastic. Our email with questions were answered very quickly.

The customer service has been amazing. I highly recommend this software.

The best thing is if you have questions the staff is on it, they have a very quick response time and normally whatever questions I do have are answered very quickly.

The customer service is super fast outstanding. I had some issues setting up the API for google maps and little this n that, but the help and support I got from these guys took my breath away.

Then have a phone number to talk with someone when your having troubles. Waiting a day to hear back and having to check in to see if I get a message is painful and stupid.

Looking for simple yet sufficient auction platform with a price that wont make a hole in your pocket. Then you grab Easy Auction for sure.

The customerservice is really great, we use this system for several months now and all questions / requests are serviced within 24 hours.

The cost was very affordable and the ability to switch plans on the fly when we discovered we'd need to be able to create more items was really nice.

Best auction i have found so far ...has all the options i need to run a successful auction site.

Allthough not online yet as the website still is being customized right now, it really looks good.

The auction went so well. Everyone loved using the site.

Does what it says very simple and to the point. Work fine and integration with PayPal is very simple.

Ability to have the site customized, ease of use, great value for money.

I appreciate that the Tech Support is so responsive especially when you are in a timeline crunch.

Easy.auction has proven to be very easy to setup and get operational. We were hoping to convert our Facebook following to our new Easy.auction-powered site and to do so quickly.

The system is so easy to use, good. Website design and the customer support is great.

Great support service and some wishes about functionality.

They have been very patient, courteous and responsive to my many, many, inquiries.

I'm still unsure on how to get the emails working and linked to the site.

They were always prompt in their response and flexible in accommodating my requests. Best customer service experience I have encountered in a long, long, time, especially from the technology sector.
